Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
god DAMN if Jensen Ackles isn't PERFECT for Jason Todd
He really was. I was worried there'd be Winchester carryover, but no. And NPH was on fire. There should have been more Nightwing.
I really liked it. Enough maybe to give it another watch before it rolls off my iTunes rental. However that works. I didn't realise it wasn't going to be available on Netflix until late August, and I have the stupid Apple TV anyway, so I might as well take advantage of the setup.
Funniest comment I've seen on Red Hood so far:
The real standout was Ackles - he's becoming the go-to guy for characters with severe daddy issues caused by emotionally witholding and mission obsessed father figures.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Oh, pshaw, it's well established that Thor can kick Thing's ass.
Thor v. Hulk, now...

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
THING vs. THOR
Jack Kirby, a working-class Jew from the Lower East Side, had his greatest successes in comics drawing blond, blue-eyed gentiles like Captain America and Thor. His most autobiographical creation was the golem-like Thing, who was constantly thwarted trying to find a cure for his grotesque appearance.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Eh, Ben could wipe the floor with Thor in a game of poker or a practical joke war. And really, aren't those the important arenas of competition?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I finished the last book of Scott Pilgrim last night. I really liked the series, and am waiting impatiently for the movie.
I agree with P-C that book 5 is pretty depressing, but in context I like it, and I really liked the Kim Pine bits.
