I have so many reasons why I love JayRoy, but there is one that is a surprisingly big factor while also completely meaningless and coincidental, but adorable to think about.
Allow me to show you Lian Harper of Earth-22, aka the Kingdom Come universe.
This pretty freckled redhead is indeed, believe it or not, Lian Harper. Unfortunately there are no good pictures of her in her originating story.
Lucky for us, her and her team of Titans appear in Titans 23-25
and the team includes other Titans kids
Darkstar, (possibly) Robert Long, Donna's son
Nightstar, Mar'i Grayson, Dick and Kori's daughter
Kid Flash, Irey West, Wally's daughter
Aquagirl, Tula, Garth's daughter
I'm not sure where the name "Darkstar" comes from if I'm completely honest, but Nightstar is obviously just smashing Nightwing and Starfire together, and the other two are legacy names. Lian's name is...not like that. And it's hilarious to me. Just...
You read that correctly. There is a future version of Lian Harper whose superhero name is Red Hood.
Now this is more because one of the names Roy used was Red Arrow, and with Arrowfam's whole Robin Hood schtick, Little Red Riding Hood seemed like a fun play. And this is before Graduation Day, so I'm not sure if Jason was even planned to return yet. It literally has nothing to do with Jason or Joker but that's kind of why I love it so much. This literally has nothing to do with who we know as Red Hood AND YET. THE CONNECTION IS THERE.
It's just one of those funny coincidences that I love.
For funsies, here's more pictures of her.
You can tell Roy has a toddler because while not knowing this is also his daughter, he is talking to her like a naughty dog lmao
Despite the red hair, she looks like her mom...and as much as I hate Cheshire, that's still kinda sweet and really cute.
They're only there for a short while, and then the Titans forget they existed immediately after, but it's still nice.
This outfit also inspired my redesign for Lian's hero costume. I love the shoulder cape. Just give the hood some cat ears and we're good.
Lian is my favorite.

Never seen before image of Brandon Routh as Kingdom Come Superman via Marc Guggenheim, the producer of CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover.
The physique, the face, the presence and the pure good man vibe.
THIS MAN is THE SUPERMAN FOREVER.
Details are crazy.
Beautiful patterns.
Nice definition of his thigh muscles.
Beautiful S shield.
The red underpants details.
I’m crying!

Presumably Jonathan Kent II, Clark and Diana’s first born son of Earth-22 (Kingdom Come Universe)
Love the details of the golden lasso, bracelets, Wonder Woman belt, diadem and stars, and Superman's red cape, blue suit and S shield 😍🥰 The perfect combination!
