Another self-portrait?

 

[Keyser Soze]

Another self-portrait?

Yeah. I'm the one in the wedding dress.

 

[Bounce]

Okay, am I the only one looking at Joker and Batman and going WTF?.

Did we suddenly shift the U around so we're UDC instead of DCU?

Though I am tempted to have Damian roll up in the Pinto and snag some of that bat-jiffypop...

 

[wiegeabo]

It's their not so subtle attempt to get the lazy ****ers to post.

You should have seen what happened to Brotha-Man.

Heh. Bruce can throw Damian to Joker. He does have a thing for Robins.

 

[Saved]

It's having the reverse effect. I want to see what comes next.

[Bounce]

Don't make me get the casket.

The Red Hood (Jason Todd)

Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences) If you copy/paste this information from another website, link back to it, or it is considered plagiarism and is not allowed. :
Trained martial artist, Access to high-caliber weaponry, Advanced student in detection.

Jason Todd was a trouble Gothamite who one night was caught by Batman trying to steal one of the wheels off of the Batmobile. Batman took him under his wing to try to offer the young boy a better life, thinking he could turn things around for him much like he did with his previous ward Dick Grayson. But Jason was arrogant and hotheaded and often times did not fully obey Batman which in the end would lead to his death at the hands of the Joker on the detonator of a ticking time bomb.

Year later, Jason resurfaced in the DCU through unknown means. After executing actions one could call pyschotic, in the end all it did was make Jason's life worse and worse. Currently, and for the past about year and a half, Jason Todd has been the resident of a Psychiatric Hospital. Then we learn that Darkseid was responsible for his resurrection seasons ago only it did not go smoothly so he visits Jason at the hospital, curing him 100% and sets him back on the mission he was originally intended to execute.

One of my favorite emotion-driven posts I did a while back:

Jason Todd- 'Deja Vu'
------------------------
"I'm sorry...that it was you who died...instead of me."

There is a loud knock on the door. Bruce's head jolts towards the direction of the knocking. Jason's eyes remain on Bruce, confused with what he has just said to him: all of it. Bruce's eyes meet with Jason's again.

"Bruce? What do you mean I--"

"Mr. Wayne? This is Dr. Larsen. If you do not open the door immediately, we will be forced to knock the door down! Mr. Wayne? That's it. Do it, boys!"

The door swings wide open as several of the hospital attendants knock it open, breaking the door off the hinge. Immediately two of them grab Bruce by the arms, locking their arms around his to restrain him. Dr. Larsen along with two other attendants walk over to Jason's hospital bed.

"What, what are you doing? STOP! Stop. I can get him help. Listen to me. I'll watch over him. I'll get him the help he needs to--"

"Simply out of the question, I'm afraid Mr.Wayne. Out of the question. You can visit him at--"

"No no no. Listen to me. I have people who can deal with this. People who can help him."

"Bruce? What's going on? Bruce?"

"The test results have just come back, Mr. Wayne. I'm afraid it is worse than we thought. We...we cannot treat him. Not here. He will be re-stationed at another facility more attune at dealing and helping one cope with such...a problem as this."

"Problem? What problem? Bruce!"

"Jason!"

"NO! Don't...don't let them do this! NO! I wanna stay here! NOOO!!"

The two attendants start to undo Jason's straps, and as soon as Jason tries to get up, they quickly grab him. Jason struggles to move free, whiplashing at them, but they have too good of a hold on him.

"I'm so sorry, son. It is for the best."

"BRUCE! STOP THIS! PLEASE!"

The doctor signals the attendants to follow him out the door. As they go through the hallway, Jason's screams as he pleas for Bruce's help echo.

"BRUCE!"

"JASON!"

"BRUCE! I DON'T WANT TO GO! BRUCE!"

"JASON!"

Bruce manages to headbutt one of the attendants, and starts to make a run for the elevator. He sees Jason with the doctor and two attendants getting on the elevator as he makes it halfway. One of the attendants from behind shout.

"Stop that man! Don't let him get on that elevator!"

"JASON!"

The elevator doors start to shut, and Bruce is tackled from the side from another attendant. After knocking him down, several other attendants come to help him keep a tight hold on Bruce.

"JASON! JASON! JASON!"

The elevator door shuts, and it travels its way down the lobby. As the elevator descends, the shouts of a screaming man on the 6th floor, are forever turbulent and resonant in the hospital walls.

 

[Bounce]

No worries dude. I managed to find things to do with Damian in the interim.

Jean Paul Valley. Undead Black Lantern remix. Always good for a Damian ass kicking.

Space Sector 129

"I had to see it to believe it," John says as we fly along together in the outreaches of space.

"Laugh it up, Mister. But I couldn't take those Guardians any longer."

"I know that, but why become a Star Sapphire? Why not go back to Warrior?"

"You don't get it. I took up this ring to be back out here, doing good. It doesn't matter if I fight for willpower or love, I'm back in the fight."

"Uh-huh...so tell me, is there any strange....side effects to wearing that?"

"Well," I venture cautiously. "I've been feeling kind of....emotional lately."

"Examples?"

"I was back on Earth last week and, for no good reason other than I wanted to....I watched Bridges of Madison County and I loved it."

"Seriously?"

"Don't look at me like that, it's a heartfelt love story. Easily one of Eastwood's best."

"The same guy who was in Dirty Harry and Hang 'Em High?"

"Clint Eastwood can be a touching, sweet man when he wants to be!" I say with more emotion in my voice than I intended to. I'm on the verge of tears, and I have no reason to explain why.

"Guy? You okay, man?"

"Yeah...yeah."

<Attention, Star Sapphire. Your presence is required. Love is in danger in Sector 2282.>

"Aww, Fudge. I gotta go. Do me a favor, John...don't tell Hal or Kyle what just happened."

"You got my word."

I pull my lantern out of the small pocket of space I learned how to use as a GL.

"For Hearts Long Lost. And Full of Fright. For Those Alone In Blackest Night. Accept Our Ring and Join Our Fight -- Love Conquers All -- "

"With Violet Light!"

I disappear in a bright flash of purple.
