And I know we all hate Jason right now for what's going on in Battle for the Cowl but
Actually, I don't hate Jason. I hate Tony Daniel, who admitted in an interview that he purposefully made Jason Rape the Dog, because he knew that many readers sympathized with Jason and he wanted them to hate Jason. Nevermind silly things like "previous characterization" (and it's not just Jason: everybody in BFTC is acting horribly OOC).
Frankly, after reading that interview, I've decided to fangirl Jason even more out of sheer spite.
