Red Hood #14

[dupersuper]

Alan Moore's story wasn't canon Pre-Crisis?

No, I was replying to Wonder Woman taking Jasons place as the Black Mercy thrower.

Yeah I was referring to the show. Did not like WW beating Mongul. Jason throwing Black Mercy at Mongul was wayyyyyy coooooler.

Agreed, but I don't understand why you'd refer to a cartoon as "this continuity".

Jason gets back in this continuity what was taken from him in the previous continuity, which he had in the continuity before before before that.

Yes, except you said "taken by Wonder Woman from him in this continuity".

[stk]

Yes, except you said "taken by Wonder Woman from him in this continuity".

He's saying Jason got it BACK in this continuity. He just phrased it really awkwardly.

And so Jason Todd Robin gets back what was taken by Wonder Woman from him in this continuity.

What he was trying to say was, "And so, in this continuity, Jason Todd Robin gets back what was taken from him by Wonder Woman."

[super1man]

Yes, except you said "taken by Wonder Woman from him in this continuity".

So are you going to take something by context or keep pestering someone even after you have understood what was being said. I am not here to write a thesis that I would be EXTRA careful about everything I write. Understand things by their context. You know the DC history - even once they think they erased.

[Addams]

Now that's a nice superman. Polite, always keeping his cool, no need for anything else when you are that powerful.

I didn't mean to pester. Pardon me for asking you to clarify.

Ugh..

Well It's nice to see the youth still look up to Superman as a leader and the light to show the way. Why has DC decided to make Superman feared by those who once looked up to him even villains. So sad IMO.

It was canon. Then canon changed a year later and it was out. It was put back into continuity in the pages of Green Lantern Corps, when Guy and Kyle briefed the newer GL's about Mongul and the Black Mercy. Jason was shown.

Yeah I was referring to the show. Did not like WW beating Mongul. Jason throwing Black Mercy at Mongul was wayyyyyy coooooler.

Jason did not exist in the DCAU and Robin was off limits to JLU, because of "Teen Titans". Hence Tim couldn't appear in that episode in place of Jason. "For The Man Who Has Everything" was rendered out of continuity with "Man Of Steel", "Exile" and "Day Of The Krypton Man". When "Infinite Crisis" changed things, one of the things changed was the return of the Silver Age Fortress. Later, Grant Morrison wrote that many of Jason's Pre-Crisis adventures happened in Post Crisis continuity. Then we had Peter Tomassi recap the origin of Mongul and the Black Mercy, complete with the cover of Superman Annual #11 and Jason being featured prominently.

On the other hand, Red Hood is like, the crazy ex sidekick of Batman (and kind of an hypocritical). I'm not sure it would have been "in character" to have him look up to Superman. Even as Robin, he was kind of a screw up (or at least was retconned to be one, but Lobdell has nothing to do with it).

Jason was one of those who looked up to him but never really got to spend time with him like Dick and Tim have or did in the old universe. Still hard for me to think of this as a entirely different Universe in many ways. I really don't know Jason's past in this universe so it may be he was always resentful of figures like Superman but Starfire and Roy not looking up to Superman is sad to me knowing the past history of The Titan's and what Superman meant to them and them to him.

I thought Perez's Teen Titans didn't happen in this continuity?
Thing is, Jason has been retconned as being the "renegade" of the Batfamily since Post Crisis. The one who was hurting the bad guys a bit too much, before dying and becoming a supervillain.
As for Starfire, I don't remember her ever being particulary a fan of Sups, and here it seems to be more due to a personnal feud between her people and his people than anything between them proper.

Like I said I forget(OK, more like try to ignore) that this is not the same universe.

Jason didn't start of that way. He was pretty much a Dick clone for the most part. It was later that they gave him the hubcap stealing of the Batmoblie originan and his father being a hitman for Two Face.

In the older, much better universe from time to time they would interact with never any hostility. Starfire looked up to him through Dick. She knew how much of a inspiration and influence he had on him growing up as Robin.

Well, as much as I liked that Superman was Robin's cool uncle, considering how this Starfire seems to have a conflictual relationship with Dick Grayson right now...I'm not sure it would change much even if all this did happen.

Well, they are criminals and Superman puts people like them in jail... Also Superman is no longer that much older than them...
