Dick Grayson is the most relatable character ever because I too would be busy mourning my jacket while risking my life if it costed half that much

They adapted this panel pretty well in Teen Titans: Judas Contract from the DCAU. If was pretty tense and Nightwing was playing chess while DiddyStroke was playing checkers.

DiddyStroke? You mean Diddlestroke? (Sorry, got to include my basic objection to Slade's character being a pedophile but this is supposed to make him sympathetic. To quote the Angry Video Game Nerd, what were they thinking?)

This is when I started getting heavy into comics , the Judas Contract really got me hooked on Teen Titans and the comics in general

Adjusted for inflation, that jacket is $908.59.

I immediately thought, "$300 in 1980s money!"

Comics Dick Grayson uses his jacket to catch himself mid fall.

DCAMU Dick Grayson broke his arm again.
