Why do normies love this character so much?

Because they mistaken him for a badass instead of the true punk ass he actually is.

Because "Edgy" equals intelligent for plebs. Suicide Squad did well at the box office, remember?

>>91658799
He's pretty cool when he's not being written as an edgelord. Like his current run and Under the Red Hood.

>>91658799
Because the same reasons non casuals do.
He's fun to read and is a nice counterpoint to other bat family members.

>>91658799
Why does this trigger so many of you faggots

>>91658799
Because hes Punisher Batman, not that hard to figure out numbnuts. Quit acting like Jason was ruined because of normies

>>91658799
>a superhero that grew up with a Dad in jail and his drug addict mother that a rich vigilante saved him from and trained him to be his protege.

Because at least in America, he is one of the most relatable superheroes there is. Lots of inner city American families suffer from a parent in jail or one addicted to drugs.

>>91658799
For the male fans, he's ~edgy and badass~

For the female fans, he's a woobie bad boy who they want to coddle

>>91658799
because they watched the animated movie or comic arc the film was based off of and skipped over all the bad shit that was written after it

>>91659071
Doesnt help Jason Ackels voiced him

>>91659102
it's disgusting how many fancast that guy as jason

>>91659056
This. He's one of the few superheroes that didn't come from money or have powers. He was just a normal homeless street kid Batman took in.

>>91658799
>normies
Omg ur such a nerd

>>91659056
Are drugs really that big of a problem in America?

>>91659266
Drugs are a problem in a lot of countries dude. I live in Australia and we have a massive problem with ice addiction. There was 2 billion dollars worth of the stuff found about a month ago here.

>>91659266
The government wants people addicted to drugs, so yes

>>91659266
Its basically how our law enforcement stays employed.

>>91659266
Dude.

Because as much as we make fun of it, casuals love edgy shit

Punisher+Batman, easy

I did see a guy with a Red Hood hoodie once, though, which was hilarious

Because Batman never letting Joker be killed, and hell Gotham never doing it either especially after we know how trigger happy cops can be, makes absolutely no sense.

>>91658799
Because normies love Batman, and Jason is best Robin.

Easy.

>>91658799
Normies don't know about this character.

I like the character because the movie was great.

He's a decent concept too, but more so in his opening story. Now he's a bit watered down and less entertaining.

>>91659904
What do we call normies that want to get into comics (or at least pretend they like comics) but don't read the comics. The type that have Deadpool snapbacks and post Batman memes. These people are different from the people that think any comic book shit is kid shit, are those the normies? What is a normie anymore

>Most relatable Robin

Wow, I wonder why normies and non-casuals alike like this character.
/Co/ntrarians back at again with the popular=shit mentality

Too bad he never seems to actually kill anybody.

OOOOH WA AH AH AH

I honestly had no idea he was popular at all before the Injustice 2 hullabaloo. Didn't think many people cared about his portrayal in Arkham Knight since the story shat the bed, and not many people actually read comics so his greater presence since the New 52 relaunch would mean dick.

>>91658799
too many daddy issues and a lotta weapons... there you go the perfect self image of a gamer.

>>91659148
Yeah, he's way too old for that. And would make a much better Bruce.

Pfhehehe...

>>91658799
What kind of stupid question is this? They have a good taste and they are smart enough to realize that he's the best bat boy.

He also has the most hilarious and pathetic haters.

>>91659266

How much fucking cocaine do we buy again? Yeah, drugs are a huge thing.

>>91658799
And why is that necessarily a bad thing? As a lot of anons have mentioned in the thread, everyone loves Jason because he's a great character, not because of whatever contrarian shit you want to believe.

Also edgy shit is cool, OP, as much as you deny it, as long as it's not overdone it's a thing pretty much every male under the age of 35 likes.

PS- watering him down so severely like they have recently is seriously one of the worst things they could've done to him, let him deviate from the other Robins, let him stay out of Gotham and do his own thing and deliver his own breed of justice

>>91659266
I'm Australian and always particularly loved Jason and Deadpool for their upbringings being vaguely like my own, addiction is a transcendent problem and it's a thing a lot of people into more niche interests can relate to, like how every abused kid back in the early 2000s hung on Naruto like flies on dog shit or how every second metal/punk fan has an alcoholic dad or whatever or how most adult pro wrestling fans grew up poor/white trash.

>>91658799
The sheer number of people triggered by the fact that people like him is amazing, relax your fine DC don't seem to care about him as they're happy to let Lobdell write him for going on a decade.

Are we getting another annoying troll? Isn't Damifan enough?

never go into those threads but keep witchhunting

>>91664396
>Someone, out of spite against a popular character, actually made this
THAT is the true edge, my friend

>>91658799
he is not a moralfag in the moralfag land that is DC. but also isn't a asshole as current marvel heroes.
he is a good marvel character in the DC universe

>>91671085
What the hell is even a "good marvel character"?

>>91671126
A character liked by edgelords.

>>91671126
A character with no good stories.

>>91660850
He has killed a ton of henchmen. Don't they count?
Of course he's not going to kill a full fleshed villain: killing an actual character could be editorial suicide, more so if the one that does is a C lister.

>>91670929
Is this bait? Or have you never seen coldsteel edits?

>>91671139
>>91671158
Cap (non-Hydra version), X-Men (outside of Wolverine), Spider-Man?

There are plenty of non-"edgelord" characters

Can someone tell me what is the deal with Red Hood? I'm kind of curious about why he is attracting this much hate and get some people so triggered.

>>91671228
is there a character who doesn't?

>>91671234
Not much as this guy. I mean, this thread is a proof of this.

>>91670810
Does Damifag count as trolling, tho? He's just this persistent, awkward English speaker, pedofan that noone likes but it's still there, almost harmless.

>>91658799
It's edgy Batman, what's not to get.

That's like normie catnip.

>>91671228
>character popularity is seeing as undeserving because his catalog is weak

Similar to what happened with Carol Danvers, even though she is less popular than Jason, much more pushed and has her waifufags scum fans.

That said, his currently run is good.

>>91671252
Harley, Deadpool, Deathstroke, Babsgirl, Damian (everywhere else that Damifag isn't a part of), Captain Marvel, Barry Allen,

>>91660067
People who care about that stuff are casuals.

>>91671220
Hawkeye, Rogue, Doctor Strange, The Fantastic 4.

As a marvelfag who has switched sides to DC, I agree in that Jason has a sort of marvel feel on him.

>>91671314
Slade is well liked here.

>>91671314
>Harley, Deadpool, Damian, Captain Marvel
/co/ don't get triggered by them, they just legit hate them.

>>91671306
>character popularity is seeing as undeserving because his catalog is weak
>undeserving
Really? So, people who hate are entitled bitchs who think that he doesn't deserve his popularity?

>>91671414
Yes.

This is why people hate character push (Carol Danvers, Inhumans, Miles Morales).

>>91671347
People like Priest's run, I don't think they liked him before that

>>91671414
>people who hate him are entitled bitchs who think that he doesn't deserve his popularity?
Pretty much.

>>91671439
>Damian, Carol Danvers, Inhumans, Miles Morales
They aren't popular, though.

And Red Hood isn't getting pushed.

>>91671439
>This is why people hate character push (Carol Danvers, Inhumans, Miles Morales)
There’s in no way similar to his situation because DC never pushed him.

>>91671491
>They aren't popular, though.
But the attempt to make them popular without material to back them up made people here hate them.

>And Red Hood isn't getting pushed.
And got popular nonetheless.

It is the same "why is he popular when his stories are fucking shit?" mentality.

>>91671491
Damian and Carol are pretty popular

>>91671554
>But the attempt to make them popular without material to back them up made people here hate them
And how that similar to Red Hood? DC didn't even expect him to popular. He went beyond their expectations.

>>91671558
They are actually not. Damian especially is very hated because DC is pushing him hard.

>>91671380
>>91671380
those are hated because of the push. even some carol fans started to hate her. pretty only the waifufags and dykes that don't read shit like her right now.
>people will ended up remember (probably liking) Marvel vs Capcom and MCU Carol but not the comic one

>>91671554
>why is he popular when his stories are fucking shit?
His stories being bad or good is matter of opinion. No one has the right to decide that he doesn't "deserve" to be popular just because they don't like his stories. This is really a stupid reason.

>>91671635
Damian is hated by people who don't read comics anyway.

His catalog is pretty fucking good compared to the others (Morrison's Batman, Morrison's Batman & Robin, Tomasi's Batman & Robin, Gleason's Robin and Super Sons).

>>91671734
>Tomasi's Batman & Robin, Gleason's Robin and Super Sons
Literally overrated here.

Tomasi and Gleason are both safe writers who keep regressing Damian in their stories. Damian is acting less mature and more annoying in SS than he did in BR.

>>91671306
Pretty sure Red Hood rebirth are the only rebirth that never get advertised, even obscure fuck like Batman beyond got advertised.

>>91671793
Not really. Just because he's matured a bit, it doesn't mean he still isn't going to act bratty. He's still a pompous prick, just one who has a heart of gold underneath. He's not going to suddenly turn into Dick overnight.

>>91671818
there were ads in the comic pages and in the preview catalog that DC put out

>>91671862
Exactly, advertised.

He's kind of a counterpoint to "why doesn't Batman kill or use guns".

He backs Black Mask into a corner and gets him to act even more irrational and dangerous than usual. He tries to enact vengeance on the Joker, and almost dies for it. He tries to kill Hurt's men, and gets Eduardo Flamingo involved, as well as getting Damian paralyzed. He's basically the focus to Batman's gallant.

>>91671714
I know it is a stupid reason, but is the reason anyway.

Imagine if America Chavez become suddenly incredibly popular among normies because of her current run. People here would resent it.

>>91671900
what in menstration

>>91671734
>His catalog is pretty fucking good compared to the others (Morrison's Batman, Morrison's Batman & Robin, Tomasi's Batman & Robin, Gleason's Robin and Super Sons).
Normies only watch movies, so..

I don't give a shit about any of the Robins, but from what I read he actually has the most potential for good storylines and is easily the most interesting one (background and personality wise).

I don't get how everyone shits on him on /co/ but praises bland vanilla dude Dick Grayson who's never wrong and everyone loves him/wants to fuck him. Holy shit what an annoying Mary Sue of a character.

>>91671900
>Comparing Red Hood to America
REEEEEEEE

>>91672033
Two years ago, she was more popular than he here.

>>91671900
There's no comparison between them what so ever.

Red Hood got popular because of UTRH which a lot of people agree that it's great. So, let's not pretend that Red Hood got popular for no reason.

>>91671989
Bruh, why do you think people loves comic books? Because they looked up to the character that always win, popular with girls, have a lot of sex, and a handsome fucker.
Why the fuck wouldn't people like Dick Grayson?
This is /co/ for fuck sake.

>>91671989
>doesn't care about Robins
>goes on autistic rant about why his favorite Robin is better than this other Robin

>>91671989
Dick is also pretty flawed (he can be a real dick, and is kind of a bit irresponsible at times), but yes, he's overall a good guy, more than Jason, at least.

It doesn't matter, because Dick fags usually want perfect Dick as the real Dick, which is not interesting.

Fortunately, current Nighting has a nice balance of Mary Sue Grayson and Actual Fun To Read Grayson.

>>91672478
it's people on Tumblr who were bitching that Dick snapping at Damian under stress was "out of character", or that he wouldn't have sex until he got married

>>91672575
>Dick
>Waiting til marriage

You're lucky if he waits for the appetizers.

I find it funny how people here say "normies are bad!!, but /co/ proved to me again and again that hardcore fans are seriously the worst.

>>91672575
Then they certainly aren't very read.
And that comes from someone who isn't really a DC regular reader.

>>91672650
The fan culture will always be poison.

Like whatever you want and don't bother yourself with what others say.

>>91672705
I still can't believe that there are people who legit hate a fictional character just because they think that they don't deserve to be popular.

Fandom culture is truly a poison.

>>91672643
Tumblr thinks that because he was wholesome and monogamous in the 80s and in Dixon's run, that should be the exact same way he's written today

>>91659266
Drugs are a problem everywhere that isn't the developed world, so yes.

>>91659056
they should make him be black

>>91672936
This isn't marvel.

>>91671228
This happens to literally every batfamily member.

I've been posting since 2007 and I've seen Dick, Jason, Tim, Steph, Damian, Babs, Cass and Duke hate threads.

fags gonna fag, I guess.

>>91673319
don't forget harper

>>91658799
>Why do normies love this character so much?
They don't, now fuck off.

>>91672837
There are people who want Dan Slott to die because they don't like how he writes a fictional character. There is no getting through to people like that.

>>91670279
And then one with the crowbar!!

>>91670929
Or maybe they just thought it was funny. Which it is. You don't have to hate Jason to think so either.

>>91674650
not really.

>>91672852
Tumblr thinks is an oxymoron.
Dick's a good guy, and he sees Supes as his role model, sure.

He's also DC's biggest slut, though. Dude slept with his adopted dad's girlfriend ffs.

not really.

>>91674331
Honestly I find it hysterical.

"I hate you and want you to die horribly for not writing a character who works hard to stop people from dying horribly and constantly rises above his struggles with a sense of humor and lack of ill-will the way that I like".

I'm honestly surprised writers haven't created a villain based on tha--ohwait, Superboy Prime.

>>91675346
I don't think that really happened, unless you meant Talia, which was Jason

>>91659747

Fuck you Batman, one thing is not wanting to kill Joker, but risking to kill Jay saving him?. That's fucking bullshit. The movie fixed this scene.

>>91677680
I think he meant Dick's relationship with Selina which is far more worse.
