REVEALED! Batman's one weakness!

I'm waiting for Alfred to settle this whole Battle for the Cowl nonsense by inviting everyone to the mansion for a nice dinner, then saying if Jason doesn't behave, he'll get no dessert.

	Hahahaha! This is such a perfect scene. And yeah, I with you on waiting for Alfred to give Jason a good talking to and set things right. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm just worried that if they get Alfred around Jason, he'll try to shoot him because apparently, he shoots innocent people these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As if bullets can harm Alfred! The bullets will apologize for the noise and quickly see themselves out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm going to sleep tonight with visions of sheepish bullets dancing in my head. They're all throwing Jason resentful looks for embarassing them in front of Mr. Pennyworth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They're like the toon bullets in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, only one's a Batman, one's a Robin, one's a Spoiler, one's a Batgirl... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Who do you mean, Alfred or Jason? (Because I think in that two-parter Booster Gold story Chuck Dixon wrote last summer, he had Alfred shooting at Booster with a shotgun, so...) I can see the solicits now, actually: The gunfight of the century! Alfred Pennyworth vs Jason Todd! Who will win? Who will die? Who will be sent to bed without dinner?!? :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alfred will bring a gun that shoots crowbars. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ha, well, there's no denying the man has style. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	lipsofpoison 2009-05-17 03:26 pm UTC (link)
	Well, Alfred has always used a shotgun so he would totally win with a put down. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I have to ask the source of your icon, it's adorable, yet creepily prophetic! I love it! :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lipsofpoison 2009-05-17 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	I wish I knew the comic it was from, but I made it from a scan collected a little while back. It's totally gackable if you want it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	It's from the DCU Holiday Special 2009. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	icon_uk 2009-05-17 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	Excellent, thank you. I knew I'd read it, Dick's Christmas present to Tim! :) (He only gave it to him because he wants to see him wearing it again!) Oh and I think you mean the DCU Holiday Special 2008, unless your LCS' distribution is via TARDIS! :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, has Jason appeared in continuity since UTH? I mean, I've seen a few characters named Jason who bear some resemblance to him, physically, but they're obviously not our beloved ex-Robin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lipsofpoison 2009-05-17 08:46 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, he was in Green Arrow and I do believe I saw a few spare moments of him in Titans too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daggerpen 2009-05-17 08:47 pm UTC (link)
	Hm- still somewhat unsure as to whether that was him in Green Arrow- I mean, the mannerisms and everything seemed right, but I just can't see why our Jason would've done half that stuff in the first place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	janegray 2009-05-18 01:28 pm UTC (link)
	He did it for the lulz, of course ;P (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daggerpen 2009-05-18 02:40 pm UTC (link)
	Guess that's the best explanation I'm going to get. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	runespoor7 2009-05-17 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	He was also occasionally in Countdown, though for some reason he vanished entirely toward the end. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	perletwo 2009-05-17 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	THAT'S IT! Some alt-Earth Jason replaced Our Jason somewhere along the way in Countdown, and our guy's stranded in the Multiverse kicking ass and taking names there! C'mon, you know Kyle and Donna never would've noticed! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

When they left Earth-51, our Jason was all depressed and shocked that Bruce had got killed and that he'd killed Joker, and so he went back to Gaslight!Gotham where he'd felt so at home. I don't know who took his place, but our Jason is getting better in Gaslight!Gotham, with Bruce and Ted and the Birds and the blond-haired, violet-dressed young woman Batman and Jason saved.

...ficbunny, dammit.

	I'd actually be interested in seeing scenes between Jason and Alfred from when the former was Robin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Have a look through the Jason Todd-tagged posts, I think there might be something in one of those. (Reply to this) (Parent)
