#if joker actyally died in utrh

[jostenneil]

i realize this line of thinking is more or less antithetical to everything that has made up his character for the last idk two decades but it is nonetheless something i have been thinking about

edit: honestly also how does no one ever confront jason about the fact that killing off drug lords does nothing to tangibly help the people being sold and becoming addicted to drugs. like does he (read: dc comics) realize that he’s effectively cutting off a market and as such completely blindsiding addicts who can’t handle withdrawal and are left in as debilitated a state as his own mother was. judd winick step up to the mic

#jason todd #dc #mine:meta #and like! it could have been cool to see him examine the flaws in his philosophy #if joker actyally died in utrh #for him to be confronted with the emptiness and loss of purpose and control bruce warned him about #for him to realize that even tho he was relieved the joker was gone from the world #he still didn’t feel satisfied and that just going on a killing spree wasn’t enough to constitute a real life purpose #like me in the above tweets isn’t saying he should never be a vigilante again ever #but maybe it’s something he could revert back to rarely #not just bc of the trauma of it all #but also bc maybe he realizes there are other avenues through which he can help victims #esp if it holds that talia consistently funds him with money #idk i’m rambling and this is a thought process only just forming im my head so it needs work #but it’s a shame what conservative militant writing has made of a character with a lot of potential
