Thinking about the three jokers story and that if it's seen as Jason and Barbara being opposite examples of victims of the joker -Barbara "gets over it" and Jason lets it define him- Jason basically gets punished by the story for not recovering. He gets kidnapped and stripped naked and beaten for a second time because he kills one joker in anger and revenge and then there's the letter to barbara that falls off the door and it's swept by a theoretical joker. Isn't that fucked up or what.
#im putting getting over it in quotes because she recovers and goes on with her life but getting over it kinda simplifies it#theres also thw thing about recovery=no revenge and no recovery=revenge#and theres the questions if what jason is seeking is justice or revenge but anyways#also this could also be bc they didnt want to alan moore this and have barbara be the victim again LIKE THAT but??? makes you think#but i cant not see the parallel between that part of the killing joke and this even if im three jokers theres no SA implied#jason todd#barbara gordon#red hood#oracle#batgirl#three jokers#batman three jokers#batman#talking tag#op
