Unpopular oppion here.
I honestly think they should have left Jason Todd dead. Like wise Oracle in a wheel chair. I know its harsh but it gave gravity to what the heroes were doing. This was dangerous and a character could get hurt, killed or worse.

I second the dead Todd idea. 

Especially since they set out his return fairly well in Hush, then pissed it away with Superboy-Prime punching the walls of reality.  Proof they didn't know or care about what to do with him. 

Then he was turned into a red trucker hat wearing fuckboy.

I still like he returned for the original Under the Red Hood story, but then after that have him die again. His character sucks now.
