nevermind i saw the leaks, i was right lmao.

jason is fine and they just coordinated to trick failsafe to get it to frazzle out afaik.

that makes sense considering the entire point of #147 was bruce deciding to work with his family despite his growing paranoia over their safety, etc. given that zdarsky has been trying to explore bruce's mental state, it would have made no sense for him to immediately validate that paranoia, instead.

#jason todd #bruce wayne #comics #dcu #unpopular opinion that while this arc has been kinda weird at points and def not as good as the failsafe arc from last year (?)#its still trying to do something interesting WRT exploring bruce's mental state and how it causes continued problems with the family #and trying to get him to work through that so that he can actually work with his family instead of against them #i keep seeing batfam enjoyers saying that they want the batfam to actually feel like a family and work together #and that's exactly what this run has been trying to build up towards actually lol #like if you want that you WOULD have to explore why that hasn't been the case already #and it has to start with bruce being a weird bastard about everything and everyone he cares about #and since it's THE batman title it is obviously going to focus on BRUCE -- that only makes sense #everyone else is a supporting character and will not be in there apart from supporting roles (or occasionally a secondary main)#i think its done it a bit clumsy because of the restraints of modern comics as a whole #but there's a lot of dudebros who are mad that bruce is like emotional and communicating recently -- so that's probably a good sign? lol #like i have my gripes with it but on the whole... i see the vision and i feel a bit sad that you can TELL where zdarsky was restricted #but that's a whole different post for when i actually sit down and put myself through reading all the stuff in a oneshot #because the monthly thing makes it easy to forget literally everything lol #see ya'll when the TPB comes out in a couple of months lol #tuesday spoilers #comic leaks
