Profile: The wrong kind of childhood can mess somebody up. Jason Todd's was, in the long run, never good for his well-being; very quickly into his life his family was plunged into destitution, with Jason himself the only source of income, and none of that income in the form of any kind of employment. After lifting the tires from the wrong car, Jason found himself swept up in a new family, with a new father, drafted into a war on the dark recesses of Gotham City as the second Robin, the Boy Wonder. But, filled with anger and the bleak lessons life on the streets had taught him, Jason was never the model, lighthearted sidekick his predecessor was. All of that has been multiplied several times over when, after becoming the Batman's greatest failure when the Joker succeeded in murdering Jason at age 15, he emerged back from the dead, and spent years regaining his sense of identity and his training. Jason Todd has now emerged into a world which has moved on without him, without doing what he sees as necessary to prevent that tragedy from happening again. Through the identity of the Red Hood, rising figure in the Gotham underworld, Jason intends to save Gotham in the way Batman would never allow himself to: slaughtering the monsters that lurk in the dark.
