We deserve more of the "Cosmic-fuck-ups", aka a trio I didn't know I need.
The Outlaws (Jason, Bizzaro, and Artmis) are part of the JL, after Jason and Bruce had a looooooong talk.
They also live in the space stations, that's how they met the titans and so on.
So one day, (Artemis and B are not on the station atm) Jason sees Donna and Kyle there, and they start to hang out (in a living-room/Kitchen fusion and they hang out in the living room area on the couch) and drink (Because Jason, the "baby" of the group, is finally 21) and they just have a good time.
Roy and Kor'i are there because they just finished a mission and see Jason having a good time with them.
They are confusing because how do they know their Jaybird, and why are they having such a good time with him? How dare they?
So they sit down in the kitchen area and just stalk them, trying to figure out their insiders (what is so funny about 11?(imagine that they went to earth-11, where the characters are gender bended))
After a while, Artmis and B came back from their mission and are joining Roy and Kor'i, and they just sulk together.
A few hours later, Diana and some of the older titans (some of Roy and Kor'is old teammates) walk by and are just confusing because, why are they looking like they plan a murder? And as if they're ready to attack?
"Roy? Kori? Are you okay guys?", Dick asked.
"Peachy."
"Not now, 'Wing."
"Artemis? What's wrong?", Diana asked her
"I'm tired, I'll go to bed. Don't worry Diana."
Artemis goes over to the cosmic fuck ups and just leans over to Jason.
"Babe, I'm tired. Do you want to take a shower with me, bring B to bed," and she leans down to his ear and starts to whispers," and then have some fun? I missed you on this mission.", and she just leaves the room because she knows Jason is going to follow her.
Of course, Jason excuses him, wishes them a good night, and follows her.
The New Outlaws : 1
The old Outlaws : -1

People absolutely have justifiable criticisms of Countdown to Final Crisis but I will say that Jason’s behavior post-Bruce’s death makes a lot more sense with that context.
Battle for the Cowl mostly just brings up Bruce’s death message for why Jason acted out so massively. But I do think that Jason meeting Earth-51 Bruce who gave him the Red Robin costume so they could fight side by side and then that Bruce was murdered in front of Jason’s eyes after Jason jumped in to help him, and Jason was openly devastated despite only meeting this Bruce that day (Jay killed an alternate Joker for laughing at his reaction)…
…and then Jason comes home and throws away the Red Robin suit to banish the remnants of that trip from himself, only to find out that actually, his Bruce did die too, in his own universe. And then other people dig the RR costume out of the trash to use it. I just think maybe maybe all that’s relevant to Jason going nuts after seeing Bruce’s death message.

Is Jason Todd known to be a Wonder Woman fan in canon?
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: [See below.]
1) Jason Todd and Diana (the original and most well-known Wonder Woman) haven't shown any particular favoritism or fondness for each other.
Their interactions (or even just acknowledgements) are very few and far between.
Superman (1939) Annual 11 "For the Man Who Has Everything"
Justice League of America (2006) #0 // Green Arrow/Black Canary #4 (2008) // Trinity: Dark Destiny (2017)
2) Jason was first introduced as a Wonder Girl fan.
It's not much of an exaggeration to say Jason Todd's first ever spoken dialogue was: "What's Wonder Girl really like?"
Detective Comics #525 (1983)
JASON: "What's Wonder Girl really like?"
DICK "I ♡ DONNA FOREVER" GRAYSON: "Wonder Girl--? I'll say this for you, kid... you've got taste."
3) Jason has close connections with Amazon women who have held the title of Wonder Woman.
Donna Troy was first known as Wonder Girl. She has since taken on other identities, including Wonder Woman briefly in the main universe, and permanently in the Earth-15 universe. She's best friends with Dick and the other original Teen Titans, and something of an annoyed big sister to Jason.
The New Teen Titans (1984)
Countdown to Final Crisis #46 + #43 (2007)
Countdown (2007) /// Titans: Titans Together #1 (2020)
Wonder Woman (2006) #1 // Countdown #30 (2007)
Artemis is a warrior born to the Amazon nation of Bana-Mighdall. She very briefly held the title of Wonder Woman back in the 1990s. Artemis later joined up with Red Hood and Bizarro for a while during the DC Rebirth era, and the trio became close.
Wonder Woman (1987) #100 // Red Hood: Outlaws #3 (2022)
Red Hood and the Outlaws (2016) #2
RHatO (2016) + RH:O (2022)

i know that the genre of characters in countdown was “popular enough characters that people will want to read it but not popular enough that they’ll be missed if they’re in an event for a year” but i think that oliver queen would’ve fit so much more as a “cosmic mistake” than kyle since ollie died then was brought back to life by parallax hal so now i can’t stop thinking of a challengers dynamic of jason and donna having their respective breakdowns and ollie going “welp i guess i’m parenting two kids in their twenties now!”
