Jason Todd very casually encouraging underage drinking
I dislike this for a lot of reasons, but especially because it’s another small example of how writers leaned into this “destructive bad boy” concept and disregarded jason’s past entirely in a lot of red hood comics. there’s no reason for jason, child of addicts, who grew up in a poor community, to encourage habits like underage drinking, smoking, or drugs. it feels extremely cheap, and even dirty, to throw that at his character when we see how child jason has to cope with substance abuse by his parents and witnesses it constantly in his community.
I think the writer’s desire to portray him as aloof just comes off as distasteful and like a cheap stereotype, leaving jason feeling so inauthentic and paradoxical to who he actually is and the issues and traumas that are core to his character.
I just don’t think the red hood who actively put out a kill list on anyone selling drugs to kids would ever encourage underage substance use.
