Jason Todd was the second Robin, until he was brutally murdered by the Joker. After he was resurrected, Jason learned Batman didn't avenge his death. Anguished and seeking vengeance, he initially turned against his mentor and father figure and took on the Clown Prince's former identity: the Red Hood. He eventually returned to the Bat-Family and assembled a team of anti-heroes known as the Outlaws.
Alright, I think it's about time for a new thread. In anticipation of Batman and Robin #23, we hear the Jason is getting transferred for "good behaviour", and that though he does leave prison, it's not of his own choosing. Do you think this is Jason genuinely reflecting on his new path in life, or is it just him scheming to get out? I'd like to think that Jason might actually be condisering returning to the right side of the law, despite Winick's view of him as a villain. And what about who's breaking him out? Do you think it's a familiar organisation (someone like Talia) or another original/shitty villain for BnR?
@theincrediblezero: Well man I have to agree with you on him becoming more of a good guy. And there are three possibilities that I have in mind on who it is that breaks Jason out. Number one is the League of Assassins. I mean Talia has helped Jason out before, but I'm not a 100% sure on that because of how things are now. Number 2 is a tie between the Secret Six and the Terror Titans. They both have everything to gain and nothing to lose by breaking him out. the third and final one that I think is a possibility is Bruce and the Bat Family themselves.

I say none of them,what does the SS have to gain? It's Jason himself.
According to the solicits, whoever breaks him out will want a favor in return which will be something Jason wants no part of. That will lead to him and B&R teaming up.
@entropy_aegis: What don't the SS gain by helping Jason out? I mean in a way Jason is very much like Batman. To have someone on the SS with the same skill set as the guy that has taken them all out before what would they have to lose?
@Unwritten Duck: Well you have a point but that doesn't mean that they aren't just keeping it quiet. Like real hush hush stuff. But Winick does do original stuff so it could be a group he created or something. Who knows.
It's probably Superman or something. I really doubt they'd redeem Jason this way at all, or set this up before Winick's arc. The suit looks exactly the same as when the last Wingman wore it, nothing's been adapted to scream "Red Hood"! It's probably Superman. A meta pretending to be a regular ol' vigilante is the only thing missing from Morrison's arc. Really wouldn't surprise me if it's Clark and this is how he can get involved in Inc as an ace in the hole. As other people pointed out, Morrison likes to do the guess who's behind the mask shtick, see Xorn or Sexton. No way this is Jason though.
