Only thing I wanna say about this is Batman did actually try and do something about it, both in the comics and in the game. He spent a VERY long time searching for Jason. He was also pissed the fuck off and was being way more brutal to the criminals, it got to the point that Tim Drake noticed this, tracked down Batman and figured out who he was and convinced him to take him as a Robin because he needed someone to help level him out. Bruce had actually sworn off taking robins or sidekicks at all after Jason died. But Bruce gave up his search after receiving that tape from Joker “killing” Jason. Jason was also fed a lot of lies about what had gone down by Joker and such. Edit: Side note. Bruce actually later tracked down Joker and beat him near death, but couldn’t finish the job because that was exactly what joker wanted him to do, break his code and prove Joker’s “one bad day” theory correct.

@@BdDreaEMD He didn’t “allow” Jason to get captured. Jason got himself captured by not listening to Bruce. Bruce took Jason off of Robin duty and made him stay home. Bruce then tracked Joker down to Israel where he was getting a nuke, Jason snuck onto a plane there to find his real mom. Because he found out she lived there. Joker found Jason, used his mom to capture him and then he set up a bomb to kill the kid and his mom. Bruce didn’t even find out until it was already too late, Bruce was given an ultimatum of either stopping the nuke or saving Jason. Bruce was able to stop the nuke quickly, but didn’t have enough time to save Jason so when he got there the bomb went off. In the comics it’s largely the same, just without the nuke or bomb in Israel, and with joker just straight up hiding Jason in Arkham for a year while Bruce was searching around looking for him and nearly killing any random criminal who MIGHT know something.
1:11 you’re not wrong but this is for people who aren’t super into the lore. Jason was soft, yes, but that’s relative to what he would eventually become. But as Robin, compared to other robins, Jason was actually going too hard on bad guys, which he was reprimanded for. Mind you, Jason had the roughest life out of the main 4, he was caught by Batman while trying to steal tires from the Batmobile.
I'm given to understand that prior to one of DC's many continuity revisions,the original reason Jason Todd was resurrected was because...and let me be clear that I have a very tenuous grasp on what the following sentence even means...because Superboy Prime (not really sure who that is) "punched reality" so hard (not really sure what that means) that it brought Jason back to life. Or something. If you already knew about this,I do not blame you for choosing not to mention it. The Lazarus Pit explanation that we were given later on is WAY more in keeping with Batman's corner of the DC Universe. Way less stupid and insane,too.
So, Silver Age Superman was stupid powerful. Like chaining up multiple planets with a long chain and dragging them around. Superboy Prime was basically that level of power in the then modern continuity. He was a level of power that nobody knew what to do with.
Yes, I love anti-heroes, you perfectly explained why I went from a batman fan to someone that can't stand his sense of superiority and strong arming everyone into following his sense of morals
my fave jason todd scene in the multiple choice thing is going down the route where batman dies and in the end Jason happens to meet up with a seemingly reformed joker in a diner. he tells jason the same joke from the end of the killing joke storyline and jason realises who he is. in response jason references what joker told him when left for dead and no warning or hesitation jason stabs him in the eye with the diner knife. Jason was really kind at the beginning but when he realised who he was talking to and what he was gonna do he was cold and ruthless af. love that scene. link - th-cam.com/video/ZHFvELji-OE/w-d-xo.html
i loved jason in arkham knight, dude was straight menace. Jason's torture and him getting psychologically broken to the point he starts to hate bruce is the reason why I'll never be a fangirl ever again. if i was bruce, joker would be puppy chow by the time im done with him
In the Arkham knight prequel comics, jason was getting raped bullied tortured, then apparently he went alone after joker in the 1st place because he blew up a hospital full of children btw. Thats when jason had enough and shut of his tracker so he could get the job done. The Arkham joker is twisted and sadistic as fuck
"World's greatest detective" couldn't find Jason for almost 2 years. 2 years of torture from the Joker because your father figure failed at the one thing he's great at would instill a rage that would make young Kratos tremble.
In Aangs case, for the fire nation leader who brainwashed hos people on the precepts of strength, and is known for being all powerful, being beaten by an 11 year old and having his bending taken away is a fate worse than death. His reputation is completly ruined. Taking away bending in general is probably worse than death for most, but especially for him.
I really hate the “No kill” trope, like why? Seriously more people are going to be inadvertently killed by sparing monsters. And I hate preachy they always are about it
@@rettin8486 exactly my point on hating how preachy it is, the writers making up bs stories on how Batman finally put down the joker “BUT OH NO, NOW HE CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HITLER AND JAYWALKERS” like you mean to tell me that Batman! The man who trained his body and soul, has resisted fear toxin multiple times and isn’t swayed by poison ivy. You mean to tell me he doesn’t have the mental capacity to put down a rabid dog without turning into a mass murdering machine? The writers are basically going “I’m right, you’re wrong, end of story”
@@rettin8486 which makes no sense, if we started leaving serial killers walk around free you know for sure how it's gonna end, the whole nothing changes thing is just the writers milking up the franchises
The 90's was the Anti-hero era. As a preteen the Punisher was my favorite comic book character. Now they're giving us a villians perspective. It's definitely working with The Penguin. I want him to fall of course but it's refreshing to get a layered villian.
0:54, The main problem with lethal heroes or anti-heroes like Red Hood is that either they only kill goons or their villains just come back from the dead, just like heroes often end up coming back if their villains kill them. It literally does not matter if a character is merciful because their compassionate or a coward or they want their villains punished by the people, nor does it matter if a character kills because they're defending people or because their indulging themselves by punishing others. Nothing they do really changes anything for long. Red Hood is a prime example of this because he constantly flip flops between killing and not killing, anti-hero and straight up villain, and in all that change, he never does anything that lasts. Even in this game, he ends up killing not Penguin or Two-Face or even Harley....you know...the girlfriend of the man who used him as a piñata and then shot him....but Black Mask, who at this point is a has-been gangster that hasn't be relevant in the city in decades.
@@alexferrana3979 , Punisher's an exception only to a certain extent, since still nothing changes because of his actions, only difference is, he doesn't really care about change. He's not some champion of the oppressed or defender of the innocent, he's a soldier that never adjusted to civilian life and the death of his family at the hands of gangsters gave him a renewed sense of purpose he couldn't find with that family, an enemy that would always need a soldier like him to fight it. In a way, characters like Punisher kind of strip away any illusions of a better, "easier", "purer" form of justice that some people think anti-heroes embody, because characters like these care less about saving or protecting anyone, not as much as...well punishing people, and not always for good reasons. Ghost Rider is very similar in that way, to the point where some stories focus on the danger of a being that targets abstract concepts like "sin" and "evil" deciding anyone with even a hint of negativity to them, the smallest of flaws and indiscretions, is a target. But that's part of what makes anti-heroes interesting, how they twist what is acceptable for a hero, much less a good person, to be and do, and how "right" they are to do what they do within the context of their narratives.
Fr, gordon being sad about joker was WILD. One of the most haunting non horror scenes that ive ever beared witness too was that joker face during the barbara incident. That shit was genuinly scary the first time i saw it. And gordon was sitting on the couch, he saw that face, and he still felt bad?

I agree with your point precisely. My step dad murdered my mom and stole over a million dollars from me. Solution not answer tho. Because it’s a question not a problem.
@@WadeWalker22 thank you but I’d rather avenge it. Then she can rest I bet. The evidence pointed to a pillow. He suffocated her dragged her to the floor acted like he was doing CPR on her until the ambulance or whatever paramedic showed up and then she wasn’t actually dead so they had her at the hospital and he was in a super rush to take her off life support because he knew she woke up that he was fucked and I had a medical power of attorney and he freaking kept me from getting down there to Vegas where they were at
@@Zexrow23 my mom and I won’t work for you at the government. I don’t know if that’s the case. When I say the US government I mean, in some capacity was kind of evil.

Aang was raised with those ideals, it’s one the last things of his people he still has, but even then Aang spared Ozai with no expectations of his redemption, it’s not even a thought, no what he did to Ozai was worse than death, he stripped him of power, stripped him of strength, stripped him of everything he had ever valued in his life and left him a disgrace in his own veiw to himself and to his people and a life of imprisonment and broken soulless torment of having no power over NO ONE, Ozai valued his control and strength, and he’ll spend the rest of his life rotting away only WISHING he could just have a taste of it one day, only for reality of his situation to crush him, any time he hopes to dream
Well Batman _is_ crazy, I’m sure clinically. Man does the same thing with the same people who try to kill and hurt him everyday, with no rest. Dude literally has backup plans against EVERYONE! Even people he should trust. He does extremely dangerous stunts all the time with no care for the damage done to his body. He doesn’t even see himself as Bruce, when holding the lasso of truth, he literally said “I’m bat man” when the others said their names. He truly believes that his real self is the Batman and Bruce Wayne is only a mask. He stops at nothing even if he full well knows that it means it’s going to repeat the damn cycle again. He is simply just a different kind of crazy, one who does just enough legal stuff for the police not to interfere.
Tbf Aang did take Ozai’s bending away and locked him up in a dark cell forever. Imagine being completely powerless and having to spend the rest of your days in a dark ass room. That’s a fate worse than death.
Small correction; The Arkham verse had its own comic line, and in said comic line Jason was not in fact killed; instead being saved by Deathstroke under the promise that he would pay him a LOT of cash, which he did out of Bruce Wayne's pockets. He then went on to become the Arkham Knight and Yada Yada Yada.
They are called anti heroes for a reason. A true real hero is always trying to save , even their enemy. They do not kill. That is not up to them whether they deserve to live or die. Its probably THE most controversial spiritual dilemma a person can go through. And why antgaonizing a hero to always go to the edge is so interesting. Once they kill they truly are no better than the villians they try to stop. Now its a battle within oneself.
Brooo I did not know about that 3rd option of the movie. I'd heard about the one where Bruce dies but DANG. Jason so cold wit it man. When I first played his dlc in arkham knight I was hyped the entire time just like "damn this mf cold with it" so HEAT
Yeah dude that's because that's how they writ his character so he doesn't want to kill cuz he was raised by monks monks don't kill. It's not dumb writing it's that's his character and he doesn't want to do something. That's morally wrong so he does it entirely different
Not only did Jason get revived and IMMEDIATELY beeline it to work with one of batmans ops, he picked the meanest one too. When it comes to killing batman, there's a whole lost of villians that have much better attempts than Scarecrow, but when it comes to BREAKING the batman, that's comes down to either joker or scarecrow
Whenever I hear someone be like superhero’s are lame as hell cuz they don’t kill the bad guys I think about the flash episodes from the justice league show where two of his villains were showed human decency and kindness instead of just being treated like bad guys and I’m like they wouldn’t deserve death ( prison yea) but not death
Arkham Todd is the weakest version for me personally. The joker is dead already and criminals (probably regular people also) rumour that batman was involved so his motivation to highlight bruce's weakness by letting him live is null. Like he says in the red hood "I forgive you for not saving me. But why, why on gods earth is he still alive?". Also when Todd snaps he's still a vigilante whilst in arkham he's a terrorist who aides other terrorists and helped kill innocents and nearly destroyed the city he thinks hes superior in defending. While i do think his kidnapping and torture is probably the most messed up version, him being trapped in arkham for years and then escaping during arkham asylum 2009 just doesn't make sense to me.
I usually agree with the killing the villans and more when they do very fucked up shit. But Aang has a pass, because he fucked Ozai mentally. Keep in mind Ozai is a "Might makes right" to the extreme mentality. Aang ripped his bending out of him, and destroyed his army and trust of his people on him (for the most part). Ozai never says it directly but if Zuko, Azula or any kid of his would have bor without bending (aka did not developed it because a baby does not show it) he would have tossed it to the street head first. So being turned into a non-bender is worse than death for him. Aang destroyed him with his own life filosofy and throw his ass in jail for life.
Dang, I honestly have always loved anti-heroes more than heroes and villains combined. Like - frfr, Deadpool will always be my Top 1 on Marvels. Now Jason Todd will always be my Top 1 in DC.
Arkham Knight was such a let down I immediately knew it was Jason when he first started talking to Batman in that game lol coulda been cool it being a completely different new character like they said it was.
If only Gotham had Capital Punishment, Batman's bullshit wouldn't be so bad...and as much as I don't like Nolan's movies, the: "I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you" part makes much more sense, than playing a rescue dog for villains
I want to expand on some answer I saw in the comments below. In the comics, Jason died after he was sold to the Joker by his birth mother Sheila Haywood. Jay and Bruce had been searching for a while, that why they were in Ethiopia, she worked there. After a couple of hours of torture, Jay still got up and tried to save her(she was betrayed and tied by the Joker as well). Jason died immediately in the explosion, but Sheila was able to talk to Batman a bit and told him he died a hero, before dying as well(btw Batman still doesn't now the exact dynamics of Jason capture to this day)Jason was really dead, until Superboy Prime (who is actually a fan from our reality) during a battle with other heroes, started "punching reality", which means retconing everything he didn't like, including Jason Todd death (the event was actually a pool in real life to decide if kill him or not, and it was rigged). Jason woke up still inside the coffin and had to crawl his way out. He was in a semicomatose state until he was found by Talia al Ghul, who actually wanted to rehabilitate him as a gift for Batman. The Lazarus pit was the last resource since he still didn't respond and Ra's al ghul was gonna kill him. After he woke up, he stayed and trained with Talia and grew towards hate when he saw Bruce already "replaced" him. After that everything is the same as the Under the Red Hood film. Right now in the comics I would say that Jason calmed down and they are in some kinda family relationship again.
*Batman: Under the red Hood* Batman: but if I do that, if I allow myself to go down into that place I'll never come back Jason: Why? I mean the Police use lethal force all the time, but you don't hearthem saying: "I'll never come back"
"Whoever your favorite hero is, no matter how many people they save. They ultimately fail when it matters the most, they dont kill" Meanwhile moon knight: and you go down the stairs! And you go down the stairs! And you go-
My favorite characters tend to be anti-heroes that show empathy towards the innocent but complete ruthlesness towards villains. Now I'm not informed enough to know if Jason Todd fits this category, but i know for a fact that individuals like the Joker have no business being left alive by the heroes, because there is nothing to reform. Someone like Mr. Freeze? Maybe, because I know that for the most part he does what he does for Nora, and even so it's a stretch. Someine like Prof. Pyg? Hell naw dude
I don't think you understand but Gotham City is a curse of villains and batman doesn't kill because 1. He became blood lusted and would start offing every body not just the villains and 2. It does nothing batman's met other versions of him who didn't have the no kill rule and guess what it did nothing not even lowers the crime rate which batman already does and he doesn't kill 3 he cares for his kids don't get me wrong he doesn't stop Jason for what he now does and they both understand each other and for Dick he understands why he left his side and guess what it was for the better

Bruce was able to stop the nuke quickly, but didn’t have enough time to save Jason so when he got there the bomb went off. In the comics it’s largely the same, just without the nuke or bomb in Israel, and with joker just straight up hiding Jason in Arkham for a year while Bruce was searching around looking for him and nearly killing any random criminal who MIGHT know something.
Maaaaan hands down one of the funniest videos I’ve seen lately, Jason is a menace
Thanks man 😂trait up he made me fw anti hero’s
@@WadeWalker22 His straight to the bullet point attitude is money, he just doesn’t take shit anymore
1:11 you’re not wrong but this is for people who aren’t super into the lore. Jason was soft, yes, but that’s relative to what he would eventually become. But as Robin, compared to other robins, Jason was actually going too hard on bad guys, which he was reprimanded for. Mind you, Jason had the roughest life out of the main 4, he was caught by Batman while trying to steal tires from the Batmobile.
I'm given to understand that prior to one of DC's many continuity revisions,the original reason Jason Todd was resurrected was because...and let me be clear that I have a very tenuous grasp on what the following sentence even means...because Superboy Prime (not really sure who that is) "punched reality" so hard (not really sure what that means) that it brought Jason back to life. Or something. If you already knew about this,I do not blame you for choosing not to mention it. The Lazarus Pit explanation that we were given later on is WAY more in keeping with Batman's corner of the DC Universe. Way less stupid and insane,too.
Jesus never knew this I’m assuming this must only be in the comics??
So, Silver Age Superman was stupid powerful. Like chaining up multiple planets with a long chain and dragging them around. Superboy Prime was basically that level of power in the then modern continuity. He was a level of power that nobody knew what to do with.
Thanks for explaining this MF sound like a demigod 😂
@@WadeWalker22 yup. Thank God,right!?
Yes, I love anti-heroes, you perfectly explained why I went from a batman fan to someone that can't stand his sense of superiority and strong arming everyone into following his sense of morals
Means a lot man I def feel as u go through life ur perspective on “villains” change u realize life isn’t black and white
To be fair in Ozai's case having his powers getting taken away was literally a fate worse than death for him.
my fave jason todd scene in the multiple choice thing is going down the route where batman dies and in the end Jason happens to meet up with a seemingly reformed joker in a diner. he tells jason the same joke from the end of the killing joke storyline and jason realises who he is. in response jason references what joker told him when left for dead and no warning or hesitation jason stabs him in the eye with the diner knife.
Jason was really kind at the beginning but when he realised who he was talking to and what he was gonna do he was cold and ruthless af. love that scene.

Warner bros should do a spinoff to Batman Arkham knight doing the fight for the cowl storyline
i loved jason in arkham knight, dude was straight menace. Jason's torture and him getting psychologically broken to the point he starts to hate bruce is the reason why I'll never be a fangirl ever again. if i was bruce, joker would be puppy chow by the time im done with him
In the Arkham knight prequel comics, jason was getting raped bullied tortured, then apparently he went alone after joker in the 1st place because he blew up a hospital full of children btw. Thats when jason had enough and shut of his tracker so he could get the job done. The Arkham joker is twisted and sadistic as fuck
Wait what Jason was getting r***ed by Joker? That’s messed up
The Comics of Arkham Series was killing people over and Over again
"World's greatest detective" couldn't find Jason for almost 2 years. 2 years of torture from the Joker because your father figure failed at the one thing he's great at would instill a rage that would make young Kratos tremble.
I just realized in the movie when joker was beatin his ass, he was barefoot so that means he stole his fucking shoes
In Aangs case, for the fire nation leader who brainwashed hos people on the precepts of strength, and is known for being all powerful, being beaten by an 11 year old and having his bending taken away is a fate worse than death. His reputation is completly ruined. Taking away bending in general is probably worse than death for most, but especially for him.

I really hate the “No kill” trope, like why? Seriously more people are going to be inadvertently killed by sparing monsters. And I hate preachy they always are about it
There are literally multiple stories showing what will happen if they kill and nothing gets better
@@rettin8486 exactly my point on hating how preachy it is, the writers making up bs stories on how Batman finally put down the joker “BUT OH NO, NOW HE CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HITLER AND JAYWALKERS” like you mean to tell me that Batman! The man who trained his body and soul, has resisted fear toxin multiple times and isn’t swayed by poison ivy. You mean to tell me he doesn’t have the mental capacity to put down a rabid dog without turning into a mass murdering machine? The writers are basically going “I’m right, you’re wrong, end of story”
@@rettin8486 which makes no sense, if we started leaving serial killers walk around free you know for sure how it's gonna end, the whole nothing changes thing is just the writers milking up the franchises
@@jacque.Line.09 but it’s fiction and fictional characters will have fictional moral codes so who cares
@@rettin8486 i know it's fiction 💀you must be a fun conversationalist
Jason doesn't break, he bleeds and takes hits but he just comes back angry
This is why anti heros popularity are rising . We tired of heroes saying no
The 90's was the Anti-hero era. As a preteen the Punisher was my favorite comic book character. Now they're giving us a villians perspective. It's definitely working with The Penguin. I want him to fall of course but it's refreshing to get a layered villian.
No judgement criticism hate to you but respectfully who’s we, me personally I don’t have a problem with it
Fun fact: Jason did this in a SINGLE NIGHT.
Let that sink in.
Nah your vids to funny im lowkey about to binge watch hope you reach 10k soon 👍🏾🙏
Lowkey wanna be under the radar small channels be hitting diff🙏🏽😂
0:54, The main problem with lethal heroes or anti-heroes like Red Hood is that either they only kill goons or their villains just come back from the dead, just like heroes often end up coming back if their villains kill them.
It literally does not matter if a character is merciful because their compassionate or a coward or they want their villains punished by the people, nor does it matter if a character kills because they're defending people or because their indulging themselves by punishing others. Nothing they do really changes anything for long.
Red Hood is a prime example of this because he constantly flip flops between killing and not killing, anti-hero and straight up villain, and in all that change, he never does anything that lasts.
Even in this game, he ends up killing not Penguin or Two-Face or even Harley....you know...the girlfriend of the man who used him as a piñata and then shot him....but Black Mask, who at this point is a has-been gangster that hasn't be relevant in the city in decades.
It's comics, plain and simple. Punisher is the exception, but even he has an arch-enemy who came back from the death at least 3 times.
@@alexferrana3979 , Punisher's an exception only to a certain extent, since still nothing changes because of his actions, only difference is, he doesn't really care about change. He's not some champion of the oppressed or defender of the innocent, he's a soldier that never adjusted to civilian life and the death of his family at the hands of gangsters gave him a renewed sense of purpose he couldn't find with that family, an enemy that would always need a soldier like him to fight it.
In a way, characters like Punisher kind of strip away any illusions of a better, "easier", "purer" form of justice that some people think anti-heroes embody, because characters like these care less about saving or protecting anyone, not as much as...well punishing people, and not always for good reasons.
Ghost Rider is very similar in that way, to the point where some stories focus on the danger of a being that targets abstract concepts like "sin" and "evil" deciding anyone with even a hint of negativity to them, the smallest of flaws and indiscretions, is a target.
But that's part of what makes anti-heroes interesting, how they twist what is acceptable for a hero, much less a good person, to be and do, and how "right" they are to do what they do within the context of their narratives.
@@callmev3531
THIS! This Is EXACTLY THE POINT! ANTI-HEROES DO NOT HELP SOCIETY!
THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT PERSONAL AGENDAS!
They should make a Jason Todd movie at some point
1:46 Not the Revenge of the Sith Anakin scream
Playing that game the scream always had my crying 😂😂😂😂
This is why Jason Todd is one of the best characters in dc comics
A lot of crimes would have been solved if batman just ended these villans to begin with
It only makes Batman more hunted by the police.
Fr, gordon being sad about joker was WILD. One of the most haunting non horror scenes that ive ever beared witness too was that joker face during the barbara incident. That shit was genuinly scary the first time i saw it. And gordon was sitting on the couch, he saw that face, and he still felt bad? Hell naw, i would have been telling jason to run, ill cover for you with batman

Jason is more of the definition of a crash out.
I agree with your point precisely. My step dad murdered my mom and stole over a million dollars from me. Solution not answer tho. Because it’s a question not a problem.
Rip to your mom man, she’s in a better place
Sorry for ur loss 🙏🏽❤️rest her soul
@@WadeWalker22 thank you but I’d rather avenge it. Then she can rest I bet. The evidence pointed to a pillow. He suffocated her dragged her to the floor acted like he was doing CPR on her until the ambulance or whatever paramedic showed up and then she wasn’t actually dead so they had her at the hospital and he was in a super rush to take her off life support because he knew she woke up that he was fucked and I had a medical power of attorney and he freaking kept me from getting down there to Vegas where they were at
@@Zexrow23 my mom and I won’t work for you at the government. I don’t know if that’s the case. When I say the US government I mean, in some capacity was kind of evil. I’m pretty sure my mom is a ghost. I see her once in a while in like window reflections and stuff. She doesn’t look real happy that’s for sure.
Jason is the only Robin that gave Bruce a run for his money. Nightwing, Tim and Damien never took Batman head on
Damien has fought Bruce.
Aang was raised with those ideals, it’s one the last things of his people he still has, but even then Aang spared Ozai with no expectations of his redemption, it’s not even a thought, no what he did to Ozai was worse than death, he stripped him of power, stripped him of strength, stripped him of everything he had ever valued in his life and left him a disgrace in his own veiw to himself and to his people and a life of imprisonment and broken soulless torment of having no power over NO ONE, Ozai valued his control and strength, and he’ll spend the rest of his life rotting away only WISHING he could just have a taste of it one day, only for reality of his situation to crush him, any time he hopes to dream
Well Batman _is_ crazy, I’m sure clinically. Man does the same thing with the same people who try to kill and hurt him everyday, with no rest. Dude literally has backup plans against EVERYONE! Even people he should trust. He does extremely dangerous stunts all the time with no care for the damage done to his body. He doesn’t even see himself as Bruce, when holding the lasso of truth, he literally said “I’m bat man” when the others said their names. He truly believes that his real self is the Batman and Bruce Wayne is only a mask. He stops at nothing even if he full well knows that it means it’s going to repeat the damn cycle again. He is simply just a different kind of crazy, one who does just enough legal stuff for the police not to interfere.
Tbf Aang did take Ozai’s bending away and locked him up in a dark cell forever. Imagine being completely powerless and having to spend the rest of your days in a dark ass room. That’s a fate worse than death.
Small correction; The Arkham verse had its own comic line, and in said comic line Jason was not in fact killed; instead being saved by Deathstroke under the promise that he would pay him a LOT of cash, which he did out of Bruce Wayne's pockets. He then went on to become the Arkham Knight and Yada Yada Yada.
the only thing that made jason lose was plot armor, bro meant business
They are called anti heroes for a reason.
A true real hero is always trying to save , even their enemy. They do not kill. That is not up to them whether they deserve to live or die.
Its probably THE most controversial spiritual dilemma a person can go through.
And why antgaonizing a hero to always go to the edge is so interesting.
Once they kill they truly are no better than the villians they try to stop.
Now its a battle within oneself.
Never seen your vids before, this, is perfect bro, got a new sub, keep up the great vids boss
Got u my boy 💪🏽❤️
this is why i always say if powers were real most people would be villains or anti heroes
Ofc that gasoline truck right there
"no diddy" 😂😂
😂😂😂
Nah bro this guy is crazy, he is literally just a better version of Batman he gets the job done unlike him!!!!!!!! 🤯🤯🥶🥶
Brooo I did not know about that 3rd option of the movie. I'd heard about the one where Bruce dies but DANG. Jason so cold wit it man. When I first played his dlc in arkham knight I was hyped the entire time just like "damn this mf cold with it" so HEAT
Yeah dude that's because that's how they writ his character so he doesn't want to kill cuz he was raised by monks monks don't kill. It's not dumb writing it's that's his character and he doesn't want to do something. That's morally wrong so he does it entirely different
Not only did Jason get revived and IMMEDIATELY beeline it to work with one of batmans ops, he picked the meanest one too. When it comes to killing batman, there's a whole lost of villians that have much better attempts than Scarecrow, but when it comes to BREAKING the batman, that's comes down to either joker or scarecrow
Facts 💯 Jason Todd is the only one on the Batfamily besides Damian that is willing to kill and get the job done.
Only those two? Alfred doubletap Pennyworth wants a word.
Whenever I hear someone be like superhero’s are lame as hell cuz they don’t kill the bad guys I think about the flash episodes from the justice league show where two of his villains were showed human decency and kindness instead of just being treated like bad guys and I’m like they wouldn’t deserve death ( prison yea) but not death
Nah. Thats the punisher. Frank castle doesn't mess around.
Arkham Todd is the weakest version for me personally. The joker is dead already and criminals (probably regular people also) rumour that batman was involved so his motivation to highlight bruce's weakness by letting him live is null. Like he says in the red hood "I forgive you for not saving me. But why, why on gods earth is he still alive?". Also when Todd snaps he's still a vigilante whilst in arkham he's a terrorist who aides other terrorists and helped kill innocents and nearly destroyed the city he thinks hes superior in defending. While i do think his kidnapping and torture is probably the most messed up version, him being trapped in arkham for years and then escaping during arkham asylum 2009 just doesn't make sense to me.
Arkham Red Hood is my fav Red Hood
I usually agree with the killing the villans and more when they do very fucked up shit. But Aang has a pass, because he fucked Ozai mentally. Keep in mind Ozai is a "Might makes right" to the extreme mentality. Aang ripped his bending out of him, and destroyed his army and trust of his people on him (for the most part). Ozai never says it directly but if Zuko, Azula or any kid of his would have bor without bending (aka did not developed it because a baby does not show it) he would have tossed it to the street head first. So being turned into a non-bender is worse than death for him. Aang destroyed him with his own life filosofy and throw his ass in jail for life.
At 1:46, awesome Anakin star wars episode 3 death cry lmao 😂
Thanks 😂they did anakin dirty in that game voice wise
Dude when i saw the title i was thinking of todd howard for some reason 😂
Dang, I honestly have always loved anti-heroes more than heroes and villains combined. Like - frfr, Deadpool will always be my Top 1 on Marvels. Now Jason Todd will always be my Top 1 in DC.
Arkham Knight was such a let down I immediately knew it was Jason when he first started talking to Batman in that game lol coulda been cool it being a completely different new character like they said it was.
All can be saved. Some don't deserve it.
If only Gotham had Capital Punishment, Batman's bullshit wouldn't be so bad...and as much as I don't like Nolan's movies, the: "I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you" part makes much more sense, than playing a rescue dog for villains
Bro left the Lazarus pit with the black air forces on
I want to expand on some answer I saw in the comments below. In the comics, Jason died after he was sold to the Joker by his birth mother Sheila Haywood. Jay and Bruce had been searching for a while, that why they were in Ethiopia, she worked there. After a couple of hours of torture, Jay still got up and tried to save her(she was betrayed and tied by the Joker as well). Jason died immediately in the explosion, but Sheila was able to talk to Batman a bit and told him he died a hero, before dying as well(btw Batman still doesn't now the exact dynamics of Jason capture to this day)Jason was really dead, until Superboy Prime (who is actually a fan from our reality) during a battle with other heroes, started "punching reality", which means retconing everything he didn't like, including Jason Todd death (the event was actually a pool in real life to decide if kill him or not, and it was rigged). Jason woke up still inside the coffin and had to crawl his way out. He was in a semicomatose state until he was found by Talia al Ghul, who actually wanted to rehabilitate him as a gift for Batman. The Lazarus pit was the last resource since he still didn't respond and Ra's al ghul was gonna kill him. After he woke up, he stayed and trained with Talia and grew towards hate when he saw Bruce already "replaced" him. After that everything is the same as the Under the Red Hood film. Right now in the comics I would say that Jason calmed down and they are in some kinda family relationship again.
Now the Red Hood kills all of the Gotham Gangster villains
1:56 joker fast asf boy!!! You see him pull that shit out the ether!? 😂
Bro asked if he didn't just see his whole team get packed
Bro he stealthed the whole crew no shit he didn't see nun lmao

Jason in Arkham Knight wasn’t revived by the lazarus pit. His death was faked, and he eventually broke out of Arkham, working with Slade.
Aang took his bending away
NOT JASON SENDING BLACK MASK THE MIDDLE FINGER BEFORE BLOWING HIM THE FUCK UP 💀💀
*Batman: Under the red Hood*
Batman: but if I do that, if I allow myself to go down into that place I'll never come back
Jason: Why?
I mean the Police use lethal force all the time, but you don't hearthem saying: "I'll never come back"
Batman: Under the Red Hood was awesome. It's sequel was dog s***.
tbf with aang ozai living as a powerless human being is the worst punishment for him

The title is actually true
Plus, he doesn’t play around like Batman
batman seems like the kind of person who struggles with simple tasks in front of redhood
My favorite characters tend to be anti-heroes that show empathy towards the innocent but complete ruthlesness towards villains. Now I'm not informed enough to know if Jason Todd fits this category, but i know for a fact that individuals like the Joker have no business being left alive by the heroes, because there is nothing to reform.
Someone like Mr. Freeze? Maybe, because I know that for the most part he does what he does for Nora, and even so it's a stretch. Someine like Prof. Pyg? Hell naw dude
bruv at this point i think batman gives zero fuckin shit about gotham or his kids he likes fightin at this point
I don't think you understand but Gotham City is a curse of villains and batman doesn't kill because 1. He became blood lusted and would start offing every body not just the villains and 2. It does nothing batman's met other versions of him who didn't have the no kill rule and guess what it did nothing not even lowers the crime rate which batman already does and he doesn't kill
3 he cares for his kids don't get me wrong he doesn't stop Jason for what he now does and they both understand each other and for Dick he understands why he left his side and guess what it was for the better
Fun fact, Superman stopped Bruce from killing Joker after Jason died
idk man, might be my new favorite youtuber.
Red hood is the straight terminator.
one word, Injustice
Jason had every reason to burn the world
arkham knight was perfection in everyway
