"why does fanon love making Jason care about his goons when he kills them in canon" I'm sorry to tell you that Jason's Robin run is a significant work for his characterization. And that Willis Todd was in fact a goon. Like, that's a significant thing that happened.

(jaybin fans exist not every Jason fan is a hardcore UTH fan who thinks everything about Winick's writing is pure and just and the right way)

#look i get liking Winick's jason and he's a super important jason writer and wrote two of his foundational works #but there is a third one and it's called Jason's robin run #and asking jaybin fans to accept anything especially classist/psychophobic depictions #just because winick wrote it #even when it contradicts important elements of Jason's story and origins #is unfair #i don't think he should have been a crime-lord in general a killer yes but not a crime-lord #but if he did become a crime-lord I can see the appeal of him doing it in a way that gathers community #also: “why do people like making AUs where things are more fun” idk maybe it's because it's fun #sorry for the vague post but #sometimes i get annoyed at people using one writer for a character to diss people's AU #while disregarding other aspects/important runs of these characters #vagueposting #vent post #jason todd #dc #red hood #dc comics #robin ii #jaybin #fandom discourse
