How did the one-time Robin return from the dead after his savage beating at the hands of the Joker? Discover the answers here as The New 52 origin of Jason Todd is revealed!
Scott Lobdell (born 1960) is an American comic book writer.
He is mostly known for his work throughout the 1990s on Marvel Comics' X-Men-related titles specifically Uncanny X-Men, the main title itself, and the spin-off series that he conceived with artist Chris Bachalo, Generation X. Generation X focused on a number of young mutant students who attempted to become superheroes in their own right at a separate school with the guidance of veteran X-related characters Banshee and Emma Frost. He also had writing stints on Marvel's Fantastic Four, Alpha Flight, and The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix mini-series with artist Gene Ha. He wrote the script to Stan Lee's Mosaic and an upcoming film from POW Entertainment featuring Ringo Starr. He also participated in the Marvel Comics and Image Comics (from Jim Lee's WildStorm) crossover mini-series WildC.A.T.s/X-Men.
This issue is Jason Todd's origin: the second Robin and the Red Hood. The writer, Lobdell, did a great job writing about Jason's traumatic childhood, ultimately resulting in how Batman first met him. Scott Lobdell, of course, also summarizes Death in the Family and briefly touches on how Jason came back from the grave, but doesn’t bother expanding on it. Reading this made me want to dig deeper into Jason's life because I think he's one of those anti-heroes with a great sad back story.
The only thing that I didn't like was the artwork. It was done by various artists which made some panels look so inconsistent.
i hate that joker orchestrated it all from the beginning like he made him into robin just to kill him. like story wise that's insane but it's just not canon to me in my head
and jasons story is so sadd :(( all thise memes about batman just taking him are literally true like jason didn't ask for all that 😭
