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.
Just for my benefit, how many people out there are hoodies? because I want to start a hoodie community right here and now. This is redhoodx stating i'm a hoodie for life. Who's with me.
@jsphsmth: I like how people who like damain as robin don't like jason as robin, even though jason and damain are almost alike.
I don't like Damian as Robin either. Tim Drake was my favorite.
Jason could never be the Robin that Dick was and he never had enough of a backstory to properly distinguish himself from Dick. That was a mistake that was corrected when Tim came around.
As Red Hood, he has become an interesting character because he is nothing like the rest of the Bat-family.

thats true about the really similar backstories...I mean there is such thing as the Flying Todds apparently...though I don't know anything about them...
@jsphsmth: That was in the golden age. Jason Todd was a happy blonde acrobat and part of "The Flying Todds" before they were killed by Killer Croc and Bruce took him in. He then died his hair black and became Robin. He was super cheerful and Bruce called him Jay. He was pretty much a carbon copy of Dick. So glad they dropped that. ;p

*shudder* That sounds terrible, I'm so glad they got rid of it. A happy Jason...I shall certainly have nightmares tonight
I'm defiantly in. Jason's the best out of the Bat-Family.

I never said this before...('cause I never seen a reason to do so)...but...Spoken for truth.
Damian has the same...if not a MORE violent personality than the one that Jason had as Robin. But Jason is looked down on for it, while Damian is praised.
@Rabbit_May_Cry: Agreed. There is a definite double standard applied to Damian.
People are also complaining about Huntress once again being the daughter of the Earth-2 Batman and Catwoman. Apparently it is disgraceful for her to be the daughter of Bruce and a thief, but it is noble for Damian to be the son of Bruce and a villain.
