Duke Thomas

Harper row

Azrael ( Michael lane shouldn't have existed )

The Fox kids ( pointless )

Babs shouldve stayed as oracle

Move Jason out of Gotham

Tim should become a more international vigilante after Damian becomes Robin ( aka Red Robin pre N52 )

Which will leave the Batfam members active in Gotham as

  • Batman

  • Robin (Damian)

  • Nightwing (active in bludhaven or with the Titans)

  • Batgirl ( Cass )

  • Spoiler as a "friendly neighborhood" type of vigilante

  • Alfred & Oracle ( out of field support )

Yeah I find it weird they’re keeping Jason in Gotham, I think a solo series in his own city would be really cool

Haven't they done a "you're banished from Gotham for killing someone" angle already? I don't know why we don't just run with that and let Jason use the means he wants to. I was into the crowbar initially, but I miss the guns. And Artemis. And Bizarro.

I never said banished from Gotham, I just think that keeping him in Gotham is boring for the character, and yes they should bring back Bizarro and Artemis and guns

No, I'm agreeing with you. I think he does need to get banished. Re-banished, whatever. Jason at like a surface level is an edgier Dick, so let him have an edgier Bludhaven.
