in prime earth canon, jason todd (NOT red hood) was* publicly known to be alive
red hood: outlaw (2018) #32
(ID in alt text)
considering that jason todd was the official owner of the iceberg lounge during this time, it's likely he acquired the lounge legally and thus can be inferred that he had to be declared legally alive to do so
which brings me to my point:
i've seen a lot of people writing/speculating the difficulties and limitations jason experiences bc he was declared legally dead after ethiopia, which is all well and good, and is fantastic fodder for angst
but i've been wondering if this was bc people are actively ignoring canon (valid) or simply didn't know that at one point* jason was publicly alive (also valid, bc following comics is a shitshow lol)
please reblog to increase visibility! the whole point of this poll is to gauge how many people know this, so i'd love to see this post reach as many people as possible. thank you~! 😅🙏
(* big disclaimer under the cut!)
note: all of this info is as of may 2023. i am only one human so it's impossible for me to read every comic jason has been in since rhato (2016) and remember every single thing that happened. if anything i said above the cut is incorrect now, i apologize! /o\
for reference, as of creating this poll i've read:
red hood and the outlaws (2016) #1-26
red hood: outlaw (2018) #27-52
task force z (2021) #1-12
batman: urban legends (2021) #1-6 – cheer pt.1-6
the joker: the man who stopped laughing (2022) #3-5
i haven't read a lot of other important runs like death metal (2020), three jokers (2020), robins (2021), etc. if jason (NOT red hood) was declared dead once again in any of those, that is the reason why i used "was" in the very first sentence of this post and reiterate that he was alive at least for a limited period
my bad that i missed his second legal death tho LOLLL
i'm also aware that red hood (NOT jason) was known as "dead" by others after task force z (even though he clearly didn't die). that said, in the little i've read of tj:tmwsl, it seems that 1) not everyone knows red hood is actually alive, and/or that 2) red hood died at all. again, if red hood is generally known to be alive after tfz, that's on me
if there's anything else i've missed, let me know!! i'll update/reblog this post for as long as the poll is up (-u-)b

So some Kyle/Jason for my soul
I have no idea when I'm gonna update either of the fics I've published.

I find it so funny how I know next to nothing about Kyle and can almost recite Jason Todd’s entire fictional existence yet when I read JayKyle fan fiction I always gravitate – and I mean always – towards the more Kyle centered fics
I just think he’s so cool, I love the way writers can make me feel about him because I can tell when a writer truly knows his character

What if Kyle is a fan artist and Jason writes fanfic and they can publish Bat-zines together---

About JayKyle: The basis is from Countdown and Search for Ray Palmer when Jason, Kyle, and Donna teamed up. There's tension, but Jason also said "I’ve got no problem with Kyle. He’s great. He’s dreamy." and Kyle says "I swear that angst ridden bad boy routine never fails". I think the appeal comes from a mix of enemies-to-lovers, finding a home in someone, and them potentially nerding out together. There's a fun blend of challenging but also understanding / accepting every part of each other.
I realized I never answered this and I feel so bad omg
If those lines are real this ship has my heart already. It sounds like Kyle brings a good challenge to Jason as a character but Jason also challenges Kyle as well.
This makes a lot of sense as to why people think they’re nice together, I can definitely see it

Kyle: Redhood is such a stupid name.
Jason: Oh yeah and GreenLantern is such and amazing name. That must be why you all use the same one.
Kyle: Yes it is. Thanks for noticing ❤.
No one can convince me that's not how they talk in a relationship. And Kyle forgets to turn it off sometimes at work (like at a JL meeting to one of the core 3)
