    Default Is it "Falling Down" for Jason Todd?

    Just like in the Michael Douglas movie Falling Down, has Jason's acts reached the point of no return? well i think so, theres no more gray area if youve seen what hes done in the comics these past few months.
    Jason has always been a tough guy but in some ways he was always a thug....from his early signs of a borderline sociopathic nature (shown back in the 80's), he was a street guy and the son of a gangster that worked for Two-Face. and ater the events of "Battle for the Cowl"....i think its safe to say that Jason is now a member of the Batman's rogues gallery.

    below youlll see some examples from his adventures and violent streak from the 80's and a few "Falling Down" pictures i made.
    i personally love Jason Todd as a villain. hes like the evil version of Frank Castle....well they do have the same daddy, Gerry Conway. some of you saw before that i listed him as my favorite Bat-villain....way before he went all out in BFTC. i just wish DC would finaly give him a permanent alter-ego, instead of havin him use other characters' instead. unless he will just be known as Jason Todd without a moniker, just like Hugo Strange.


    Jason the Mechanic



    Street Jason



    The Graduation to Robin II


    Marksman Jason


    The Recklessness, Violent Moodswings & Thirst for Blood.




    Street Justice & the Point of No Return





    Finally Fallling Down



    so what do you guys think of Jason now after all hes done?

    He's not bad as a character now but I couldn't stand him back in the day. I admit, I voted for him to die. He was well done in BFTC but I hated him in Countdown.

    The only way I can accept the fact that he is still alive, is with him being the villain. I wouldnt care if they do kill him off again.

    hey GameAH, heres a flashback for you and everyone else that voted back in 1988:

    i was so young back in 1988 that i wasnt even in school yet. i thought i would ask you or anyone else that voted, this question....ive always wanted to know, when someone called any of the two numbers listed to decide Jason's fate, what would each line say when called? was it a machine talkin, or was it like a quiz where you just press numbers to answer?

    i prefer him as a villain, or as a anti-hero leanin towards more the badside like Deathstroke the Terminator. but i really dont want DC to kill him off...his saddistic acts and violent nature give Batman's comics more of a kick. Todd has killed so many characters since 2005, that i think its safe to consider him a mass murderer....hes up there with Joker and Frank Castle. i still believe that he pushed that guy off the buildin back in 88, and the guy didnt just slip.

    You kidding me, I don't remember what I had for lunch today. I think it was just like a "Thank you for your vote". I thought when Tim Drake came along, "here we go again". I have liked Tim since his debut for some reason, and he is in my top ten faves. I never could stand Todd, he just seemed very lame as Robin.
