Skip this issue. It sucks. Do not pick it up, do not pass go, do not collect $200. Why does this issue stink? Jason Todd turns into a monster, the same monster that swallowed him last issue with no explanation as to why or how. The issue ends and we do not get any explanation as to why Jason Todd was parading as Nightwing or what he’s been up too. Jason sends a telegram on the last page to Dick to explain himself, “just wanted to see if we could be family again.” Right. Whatever Judd Winick did over 13 issues to make Jason Todd and interesting and motivated character has been totally ignored by Bruce Jones. Did he even read Under the Hood? I guess Bruce Jones caught wind of all the mud that some people were flinging at him and decided to do something about it. He basically shit on us, the fans, Jason Todd, and Judd Winick. Thanks DC. I appreciate how you let crappy story ideas develop without even wrapping them up. Bravo!
The art is okay, I’d like to see Paco Diaz on another book, with a better writer, because he can draw. To bad for him that he got paired up with Bruce Jones. This issue gets a Big Fat F!
I almost view this issue in the way I'd view Army of Darkness, so bad it's funny. I liked the issue because of some of the really awfulness, you got Jason turning into a monster seemingly outta nowhere and swallowing the bad guy,LOL. I will agree though this issue wasn't great.
As a Jason Todd fan, I want to puke. Judd Winick made him so cool and then Bruce Jones butchered him to pieces, Jason turning into a flesh eating Monster? YEESH! I got into comics because of Jason, and now his character has gone down the tubes.
“just wanted to see if we could be family again.”
Where the heck did THIS come from? I write fan fiction for fun and I could come up with a better explanation than THIS toilet scum Bruce Jones is writing. WHERE'S JUDD WINICK WHEN WE NEED HIM?! Thank you so much for enlightening the Jason Todd fans about how HORRIBLE this arc is, I wasn't going to buy this when the whole collection got put into a graphic novel form, now I'm DEFINITELY NOT going to buy it.
