To feed the algorithm:
I find the uncensored version is more powerful. The implications of the censored death are more gruesome, but what gives the uncensored version more weight for me is that it's Tim intentionally killing Joker, and specifically with a gun. Beyond's opening drew such focus on a gun ultimately being the end of Batman, and finding out the role another gun had in breaking Tim gives Bruce's "Never Again" moment even more weight.
I love watching James dive deeper into insanity as each chapter is released. it makes me smile.
That’s one of us
JK it’s pretty fun
Usually
Is that the gaming legend Den Toonz Comic
When Tim said that this made no sense because it sounded just like his own story, I was really expecting them to reveal that it's all a dream
Over the Edge. Tim version
JasonJacksonJames yeah because it doesn’t make sense
How does this channel have less than 100k subscribers? This has a production value of a multi-milion-subscriber channel!
I DONT KNOWWW
im honestly surprised too. couldve swore they already hit that milestone
The fact they had Tim acknowledge how similar Jason and his stories are makes it even worse. I really don’t know why we needed this comic. We could have just had a Red Hood figure in the style of BTAS. He didn’t have to be “canon.”
We Red Hood fans disagree, we wants our boy in everything. Batfam for life.
There's so many figures they could've adapted, too. That Vampire Batman fig could've been the best chance to do that Nocturna story they always wanted to do. How about the Court of Owls? Hush?
@@WannabeWryter except red hood would either be dead or moved on to a different city after this little event. Considering we never hear a single peep about him in the TV show
@@GamerSlyRatchet1 I would have loved any of those stories over this.
I’m okay with them making Jason canon, I just wish the execution was better.
Ok the yellow bat symbol killed me
The yellow suit has return
18:31 icymi
I'm genuinely wondering how intentional the yellow batsuit coloring in this issue was--
After this comic dropped, I got to thinking and it might actually subtly explain a change in Batman's temperment going into Justice League. As others have noticed, Bruce in TAS is a pretty well-rounded guy (all things considered), but then gets darker and/or delves deeper into the Batman persona in TNBA. However, he is noticeably quippier in JL and JLU, with Superman even commenting in the final episode that Bruce was "...getting soft in his old age." If you factor in the timeline of these Jason flashbacks, they would take place during "The Lost Years," whereas the Red Hood sections seem to be post TNBA. Thereby, Bruce's rougher approach to crimefighting in TNBA could be explained by the fact that, at this point, Bruce still presumes Jason to be dead, while by the time of Justice League all the present day portions of TAC would have happened meaning that Bruce would now know that Jason is really still alive somewhere, giving him closure. It may be a stretch, but like Amanda Waller, I'd like to think that these comics have also done some good. (#keepepilogueasecret)
I love this idea
So there was a so called lost years between TNBA and JL. I always thought TNBA happened after JL and JLU since in JL bruce seems to be more closer to his BTAS personality. Its good to know that Bruce soften up after TNBA and TAC but still his never ending mission with the cowl made him unable to live a better life. Also would love to have a series about Barbara after she left bruce because it could give us insight on how Batman's crusade affects gotham in this universe
@@conathlnzo8126I think a similar thing happened after joker fucked up tim, he got darker yet again and at that point had some many traumatic experience fed that he eventually flew completely solo, hence his solitude and grumpiness as an old man
Spoiler:
Joker’s crowbar is Hush LoL
Not even surprised
I’m just gonna guess that Joker was either joking about not knowing which chemical explodes, or he just genuinely forgot because of his insanity
I appreciate that they acknowledge the fact that Jason and Tim have similar backgrounds instead of out right ignoring the matter. It also creates some very interesting implications as to why Batman would still take in Tim after what happened to Jason considering the similarities.
maybe jason turns into a giant robot t-rex in the last chapter and we get a new origin for the dinosaur in the batcave
God I hope so
Xavi Golden well I think it came from the Calendar girl episode
That’d be the greatest twist ever.
ShadowBat 20 😂
Like Jason Todd, this man's mustache will probably be revived
Jason Todd was a dumbass and came back evil though...
The moustace was cool... I hope it returns as a hero and not as a villain XD
@@PitchBlackLaser I think we all hope the mustache comes back good and a hero
that mustache belongs in a straight jacket
"Street pizza" must have been what Robin (DG) changed the menu to, replacing "sidewalk stroganoff." Those who know, will know.
“He can type like Data now” James always trying to bring up Star Trek, sorry, Star Track
18:30 I hope they did this specifically to mess with you😂😂
4:51 Did anyone realize that Harley has temples on her glasses when no one has those in the DCAU?
And they attach to nothing!
I really don't like the way Jason is being portrayed in this story. The ripping off Tim Drake thing is bad enough, but i especially don't like how they're presenting him as this rotten bad seed who was apparently fucked up since day 1. Part of what made the Red Hood storyline work so well was that we saw a genuinely nice and sweet child become corrupted by a desire for vengeance against those who wronged him. Making Jason a piece of shit even when he was Robin takes away from that. (the live-action TITANS has the exact same issue)
and on top of that, to have ALFRED of all people be the one to disown Jason just feels extremely OOC. This whole story arc's just kinds been leaving a bad taste in my mouth
They completely buturched his time as Robin, also DCAU Tim is a Jason rip off.
In some versions of Jason Todd's origin including mainstream comics it was often said that Jason was always a little mess up in the head, more violent and more vengeful. He was little hearted at the beginning like most kids would be but even batgirl had said so.
@@WannabeWryter He was to a degree, but it was never blind, most of it came from this feeling of not being able to help others, his violence was defensive not offensive, eg. Pritection from pimp. Gloria and the drug dealer was also a pimp.
@@deekshabhalla9615 " look how they massacred my boy"
@@WannabeWryter Jason from pre-crisis to Post-Crisis was definitely made darker, they changed his origin from being a Dick acrobat ripoff to street kid. But his personality tended to change for different authors, for example Mike Barr wrote and issue where he keeps BATMAN from killing Joker. They ramped up the brashness leading into DITF, and decades after his death authors have loved writing him as a bad seed to weirdly justify killing him.
Re: the yellow bat-symbol. Either it’s an Easter egg referencing a Victorian-era Elseworlds Batman, or else the colourist likes messing with James’ head.
In Joker's Millions why would Batgirl think that Joker would turn over a new leaf if she believed that he killed Jason?
Thank you, retcon!
Commenting for the algorithm!
I’ve always used “Timm Canon” to describe the DCAU and “Dini Canon” to describe the Krypto the Superdog/Duck Dodgers universe and I am set in my ways.
But seriously for me, Timm stuff is usually animated and Animation takes priority in the “DC Animated Universe” for me so color me Team Timm.
Also, I agree that Tim shooting the Joker is the more satisfying end because “that’s not funny.” It’s his canonical death for me.
About Batman apologizing : he *does* say "I'm sorry" to Mister Freeze in Heart of Ice, but that's more an expression of sympathy than a statement of regret. He says the same thing in the same manner to Karl Rossum in "His Silicon Soul."
He also says "I'm sorry" to Commissioner Gordon in the episode "I am the Night" when he assumes responsibility for Gordon being injured.
I really want the Robins to some day play two truths and a lie.
Dick: My eyes are grey, I grew up in the circus, and I once beat the Joker to death.
Jason: Yeah, that's the idea, but don't make it so easy.
Tim: Dick's eyes are blue.
Jason: ...
Jason: You WHAT?
What I'd give to have Dan Riba say my name. Incredible
13:05 Reminds me of another witch in Circe being under the piano in This Little Piggy
Why does it say that your comment was posted 17 hours ago
@@JasonJacksonJames patrons get early release for videos
@@bobtherandomguy805 oh
Was that a real zoom call with Bruce Timm
I wish
13:00 could be in reference to the Joker-Mobile from Batman #37 which was purple with Joker's face on the front.
Would also like I say I feel like DCAU Red Hood woulda worked better if it was set in the 2010s post-Return of the Joker and Jason Todd was an alias assumed by a disappeared Tim Drake while going all Punisher and these stories used a post-RotJ framing device of remembering these stories from the good ol' days, hence Tim losing faith in superheroes w. Slade or Azrael being Azrael having a purpose. Maybe even him trying to kill Harley for the same reasons as Under the Hood with Joker despite her trying to reform.
The car landing on jokers head actually explains the hollowed out eyes. It reminds me of 2D from Gorillaz. Me and my history teacher were talking about the hollowed out eyes theory for a little bit and it seems to add up
He just got PTSD from the yellow bat symbol
Jason referring to himself as "dying. All broken up." Could be a reference to the death of Pilot (Jennifer Chase) in the final episode of Captain Power And The Soldiers Of The Future, where she refers to herself as "all broken up inside" after being fatally wounded.
Honestly I think it would've been interesting if Jason came into the picture after what happened to Tim Drake. Maybe Jason takes on Tim Drake's original origin like how Tim took on Jason's post crisis origin and basically step up into the mantle of Robin when he noticed that Batman was a bit more unhinged after what happened to Tim, maybe using the Joker's death as a way to scare not only criminals but even normal people that support Batman. Jason would step in trying to help bring Batman onto the right path before crossing that line and maybe with Batman having no choice but to accept Jason this could lead to a fallout between him and Batgirl with not only her wanting more in their relationship but also allowing another child pick up the mantle of Robin after what happened to Tim Drake. Maybe with Jason coming in it could also explain why both Tim and Bruce just never really spoke after so many years in Batman Beyond. Just spit balling but either way it would have been nice to see a whole new story for Jason Todd even if it meant just having be the Tim Drake of the DCAU
You say he's a good boy but that puppy is actually a crazed murderer!
I prefer the uncensored death. What's creepy about it is the psychological aspect. Joker's death being a stupid accident is its own form of poetic, but has none of the same weight as being shot by a tortured and brainwashed Tim barely fighting against his trauma. The Joker dying because he was so obsessed with breaking Batman that he didn't even _consider_ breaking Robin to be something dangerous for him is brilliant. He won and lost at the same time. In the end, it's the spark that leads to the events of him hanging up the Cowl, so he ultimately beat Batman by destroying his family. However, he lost by never breaking Batman. However, he won by breaking a Robin to the point of that child breaking Batman's rule. It's creepy because he drove a child to murder in his quest to break Batman, and it worked as the slow poison to stop Batman.
Love binge watching all these videos and can’t believe this channel isn’t more popular
Great videos, glad to have been one of the 5,000 who watched the live stream
I love how the only logical explanation left for this is that they're trolling you.
14:46 Both versions are great but I find the Uncut version to be more Poetic and shocking.
They really both are! Personally, I'm kind of partial to the Edited Cut in that it makes the Joker's need of a "return" to feel all the more necessary, as the way he went out was so random and anti-climatic, something that we see Joker already feared in "Joker's Favor". As a standalone segment, though, the Uncut Version is a really definitive end for the Joker.
4:09 really disappointed at the lack of Captain Clown 14:45 I like them both for different reasons. The gun one has nice poetry to it but the electrocution is a lot freakier. 6:15 well dang they called themselves out
I have been looking forward to this- Count dooku
That cursed yellow batsuit
4:20 That Henchman's mask or face paint is what I think is a nod to Heath Ledger's clown mask that he wore in the opening heist for The Dark Knight
Poor Jason, to be forever crowbar'd. When anyone asks "what's a more iconic duo?" Jason will always be paired with a crowbar.
Sometimes I feel like being beaten by a crowbar then all sploded... and then I get a notification for Watchtower database!
After reading the comic, at least Batman put in more effort than he did in the Arkham games when it came to finding Jason... which was like a month.
I’m hoping when it says “joker will turn to a familiar face” it literally means his own and they role the Batman who laughs into the book somehow. It’s kinda strange because while his posture resembles the Joker’s animation model, I don’t think it’s just the Joker dressed up as Batman because TBWL has these weird pointy teeth.
Idk I’m just glad the yellow bat suit is back.
The creativity of you guys when you come up with ideas for patreon party
Jason dragging Tim could be a reference to battle for the cowl #3 after Jason stabbed Tim.
12:47 That Joker Car with the Tongue reminds Me of the Jokermobile from near the End of Arkham Knight. :) A shame that We weren't able to Play It In Free Roam.
This was yet again an amazing video and I can't wait to see what happens next
The stream was so entertaining and you guys did a great job!
While I know the DCAU Gotham is set in New York, the creepy bow tie wearing head at 15:00 also reminds me of the Tillie character associated with Palace Amusements in New Jersey.
Given how Gotham in the comics is usually cited as being in New Jersey, and the character was named after the founder of Coney Island, and the Joker’s affinity for carnivals and amusement parks...
Coincidence? 🤔
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tillie_(murals)
Feed that algorithm those sweet sweet nuggets of eggbaby
A thing you missed is Jason Todd once did try wearing a batsuit in the battle for the cape and cowl comic
Dis channel is rlly tuff on bro lot of diff content rlly b Havin u thinkin bout stuff it’s rlly special 💥💥
What if the near apokalips of 09 was sorta like injustice because do we ever see lois after JLU maybe someone murdered Lois and superman almost went crazy
I used to theorize that everyone in the Daily Planet got wiped out by Darkseid in Destroyer and that’s why he withdrew into the Fortress and got Starro’d by BB but Superman’s too happy in Fatal Five for that to work.
I was in your stream for most of the 24 hour stream.
Us too!
Not gonna lie, seeing these videos pop up in my subscription feed always make my Sundays! As a fellow DCAU fan since childhood, I so relate to you guys' frustration with and yet interest in this comic. The main thing that I feel is going to really irk me going forward is Comissioner Gordon referring to Tim as "the second Robin" in RoTJ, which I just don't know how can be reconciled. Nevertheless, I do appreciate Dini and Burnett adding some wrinkles here and there to make it different from the comics, at least, albeit somewhat similar to Arkham Knight in that it (will likely) leave Jason alive. Hoping the end will give us a good payoff and leave the continuity pretty much intact. Take a deep breath WTDB, we're in the home stretch!
She doesn’t call him “the second Robin.” Just “Robin.” I went back to triple-check because I was almost gonna be so happy if she did say that.
@@dcauwatchtower Just checked for myself and I stand corrected. I really could have swore that was the one place where it was explicitly stated. Guess not. 🤷♂️
Keep up the great work! I love this channel.
It bugs me that Batman saves the Joker here, since, contrary to comic Batman, DCAU Batman would usually just leave the Joker to his own doom (eg: laughing fish, world's finest, mad love...)
He isn't concerned about Joker dying at all!
because Joker needs to survive to the events of the flashbacks of Return of the Joker, either he dies by Tim Drake hand or by his own.
@@mrheroprimes yeah but it would be more in character if he let the Joker "die" like all the other times
im pretty sure batman has saved joker in the dcau as well
@@alexsapsarras4812 name one time
@@JasonJacksonJames chill out bro. We're all friends here
One of the Joker’s new goons is designer like Pennywise from the recent IT films too! Have a great day everyone!
The cure thing joker said is probably a reference to Arkham city where I'm pretty sure he says that 1 to 1 in the game.
Both of the deaths are pretty grim but I'd give the edge to the gunshot death, it makes Tim's breakdown after even more heartbreaking
I've been subbed for awhile. You guys deserve to get 100000 subs
I like the uncensored version more because that’s what I saw first but oh boy, the censored version is ironically waaaaaay more unsettling.
Also yellow bat suit version 1 and Tim finding out that he has the same origin story as Jason made me laugh so hard lmao
I'm in a watchtower database video!! You guys are awesome
I AM BEHIND EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this channel
The Jason Batman handshake panel reminds me of when Arthur punched DW because of the closed fists
In regards of Harley's involvement with Jasons death, I can say I am pretty pleased actually. They did actually managed to save the
continuity up to batman&harley since she tryies to stop joker from brutally killing the kid.
Perhaps we ll get the explanation of Harleys last turn to evil before the events of rotj sometime (perhaps if they sell a batman beyond or jokerised tim action figure through this toy line?)
what about batman who laughs and vampire batman figures from the same line?
hope these wont appear as costumes on some halloween party sequence
Great videos
Awesome, as always. Thanks for creating so much awesome content that gives my geeky heart a happy. (Also it literally makes me squee out loud EVERY TIME I see my name in the Patreon supporters list. Which startles whichever of my hedgehogs is watching with me. 😁🦔)
Oh my god that stream took it out of me
I think that the censored version is how he would want to go out (basically slipping on a banana peel), while the actual version with the gun is how he actually died. Like, if the joker had to tell someone how he died, he wouldn't say "I was shot by the brat," he would either make up a joke or say that the bat killed him, so him slipping and dying would be exactly what he would say.
12:48 The Joker-mobile that appears near the end of the "Arkham Knight" video game also has a mouth and tongue
I quite like the change of how Jason views Bruce as a brother. Also obligatory comment about the yellow Batsuit freak out. :D
I'm surprised you didn't point out the fact that Dicks Robin costume changes color to red and black and then changes back to the original scheme on the next page. At one point there's two red robin costumes next to each other on page 19 i think.
Daww you’re totally right! Everything is broken, call off the next video. ;)
Thanks for the video guys! Your videos on these comics do give me a lot to think about. I do have some things to point out to you and suggest for your timeline.
1 On the subject of this story still being quite faithful to Jason Todd's comic book and not taking the opportunity to change it a little bit more, I'm going to have to disagree with you on this. If they changed Jason's origin too much, it would have just ticked off the fans of his character. Plus, Paul Dini and Alan Burnett probably couldn't introduce too many changes since executive meddling likely dictated that they had to be faithful to their comic book origins.
2 I will point out at least a few other divergences that did happen in this story that wasn't present in Jason's original comic book story.
A. One would be that Jason has an actual biological relative that did genuinely care for him. In the comics, all of Jason's other biological relatives were abusive and neglectful in some manner. While yes, Danny Todd, did make some pretty poor choices by getting involved with the Wolves gang, he was a kid living on the streets of perhaps the worst city to live in the DCAU (well one that isn't a war zone) who was the only person around to take care of his younger brother.
B. Another divergence is Jason's inspiration for the Red Hood costume. In the comics, it was The Joker. Jason took the identity of the Red Hood in the comics to mock/own/scream to the the two people who made him what he is. The Red Hood is who the Joker was, and the Red Hood is who the Joker was until Batman "made" him into the Joker. Jason is wearing the mask of Batman's greatest mistake.
However, the DCAU version of the Joker was just an anonymous member of the mob and never took the identity of the Red Hood in this universe. In the DCAU, Jason's identity of the Red Hood means that after he escapes his near death experience, he chooses to honor the identity of his older brother who did everything he could to help him until the end. It's also Jason's way of indirectly saying Batman betrayed him and that in his eyes, he failed to meet up to the expectations of being a father and older brother figure. Heck, that's another divergence right there. The comic book version Bruce and Jason's relationship was father and son. In the DCAU, it seems to be a bit of a mix of part father and part brother.
C. Yet another divergence is that Bruce saves Joker with the crowbar that was used to beat up Jason. I didn't think it was possible to hurt Jason Todd emotionally even more in a story like this, but Paul Dini and Alan Burnett proved me wrong. Imagine the person you trust the most saving the person who was going to kill you with the tool he was to perform the act of murder with. That new element has got to be one of the biggest gut punches and heartbreaking moments that any version of Jason Todd ever received. That level of emotional damage is up there with what the Arkhamverse version of Jason Todd received.
D. Finally, this divergence is perhaps the biggest one that you guys haven't pointed out yet. In the comics, Bruce and Jason's relationship always had the legacy of Dick Grayson hanging over them. Heck, in the comics, after Jason's death, Dick confronts Bruce as to why he took in another kid as Robin after firing him from the Robin role. Bruce answers that one of the reasons he took in Jason was that he missed Dick.
This essentially means that Bruce essentially used Jason as a replacement for Dick. The writers really didn't seem to think of how horrible that makes Bruce look. It makes Bruce look like he favors Dick above all of the other kids he takes in. That shouldn't be the case. If Bruce takes in any other kids, it should be solely because he wants to help them and not replace a relationship he doesn't currently have. That's something that really goes against Batman's compassionate nature which is a topic you made a whole video on.
In the DCAU, Dick Grayson is a complete non-factor in Bruce and Jason's relationship. Bruce took Jason in since he had no one else to take him in after Danny died, and to give him a better life. However, it broke down due to Jason's violent nature, Bruce's denial over the extent of Jason's issues, and Jason overhearing Bruce's lack of faith in him. I much prefer this version over the post-Crisis relationship between Bruce and Jason. At least you can say that Bruce didn't use Jason as a replacement for Dick.
Here the flaw in Bruce's relationships with the Robins is that he projects too much of himself into them. He thinks that giving them training, putting them in costumes, and taking them out into crime fighting to take out their anger will help them get better. That can play a part, but they need more than an outlet for their anger. They need a good caring parental figure who can also express that care outwardly. Bruce has problems with overt and outward shows of care. He's compassionate but he has strange ways of showing it which certainly rubs others the wrong way leading to eventual relationship breakdowns.
3 Onto the timeline issues. I do have some suggestions to help you in coming up with a solution to this issue. You're probably not gonna like it though.
A. First of all, to save yourself the headaches, just throw out all previous DCAU tie-in material. It's pretty obvious by this point that, people like Bruce Timm, Paul Dini, and Alan Burnett don't consider any of the previous tie-in material canon and will steam roll it however they seem fit. This behavior isn't unusual since in the heyday of the DCAU, they steamrolled entire issues and at times entire comic book runs and were quite clear with their attitudes towards tie-in material in interviews. They really only count the material they were involved in writing as canon. They may have taken inspiration from tie-in material at times and would incorporate some elements from into the shows, but the animated shows take priority over them. Also, if the writers were involved tie-in material, there's always the possibility that future material they were involved in will overwrite it later. Roxy Rocket was originally from BTAS tie-in material, but her animated debut overwrote her tie-in comic run. Also, this comic run overwrites Nora's fate in the Gotham Girls web series. The only way I can see this series being overwritten is if it gets an animated adaptation.
B. In order to make sense of the timeline, some condensing is going to have to occur. Here's what I propose, the events of BTAS (all 85 episodes) Mask of the Phantasm, Subzero, the Old Wounds Flashback sequences and the TNBA episode Torch Song (this event happening after Dick Grayson leaves the Robin role) all occur from 1992-1994. Bruce also finds Jason Todd in 1994 and the flashback sequences in BTAC occur from 1994-1995 culminating in Jason's "death" and Batman's search for the supposed dead Robin.
In 1997, the episode "Sins of the Father" happens and Bruce takes in Tim Drake as his ward and he becomes the third Robin. That's also the year the events of TNBA occur. However, episodes that do not feature or mention either Dick Grayson as Nightwing or Tim Drake as Robin may be pushed to have happened much earlier into the timeline than initially believed. In this comic, Tim mentions that he's been Robin for about a year so that would put the events of the BTAC comic series in 1998 or at least when the events of that comic series starting. Hopefully, that helps the timeline.
Harley protesting whether the Joker should kill Jason might also be a reference to Batman: White Knight.
This is the first DCAU comic series I actually read and I got to say I'm liking it so far
All I’m saying is if what if this comic is a dark multiverse DCAU. Think about it if Batman kills the joker then it would be like when he killed joker in the Batman who laughs comic and the Batman who laughs is apart of the toy line sooooooooo what if Batman kills joker and becomes the Batman who laughs.
I really hope you're right
