Jason Todd

In this episode, Stephanie tells Brit all about the various Robins - that's right, there's more than one! We focus on Jason's development, death, and resurrection, as well as how his storyline overlaps with and reflects major cultural touchstones, including tough on crime, the war on drugs, and the figure of the welfare queen. Ultimately, we decide that Jason needed loving and caring parents, and that Batman needs to stop taking in distressed teenagers.
