Roy believes the rumors about Jason at the start but he never back off, he wants to be his friend.<br /><br />I might read it tomorrow, I'm trying to stretch out my books now that I have free time. Especially since the new issue is so close to being released.<br /><br />I don't know about that, maybe the way it was depicted in the art but Jason isn't doing the same thing. Not the way I read it anyway. Cass reads body language, Jason studied for weaknesses, things he could use for his advantage like the gun. He had to literally hone in on that skill to survive, it's explained good enough for me. <br /><br />Dick HAS Cass' ability in this canon yet I've seen little to no complaining about that. That's how he figured out who Batman was. Last I checked he didn't even have a reason for it. He wasn't conditioned he just has it by the time he enters the manor.<br /><br />I kind of got that impression but the art made it look like he could win. I mean he's a freaking bat kid, the other bat writers may forget it but that means a hell of a lot. Like I said in other reviews I want more badass Jason.<br /><br />I think compared to his other work (Doomed) this issue didn't feel as detailed. His faces were also much stronger there like the way he showed Reisers' emotions.<br /><br />I read that yesterday, It was saying how those four panels with Jason arriving and accepting the arrow gun basically summed up their friendship. It was a good piece.<br /><br />Same. I think that like Starfire it almost feels like a forgone conclusion that no one outside this book, writer or character will acknowledge their friendship. I hope that isn't the case.Erin S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15663158782066282265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3056373842046198497.post-30818901914693108582016-04-05T22:27:31.888-07:002016-04-05T22:27:31.888-07:00Yeah that is the implication, the Iron Rule got ou...Yeah that is the implication, the Iron Rule got out of control and Roy had to kill them to stop them. I also assumed that happened some time before Roy went to Kandahq, that would explain neatly why he feels the need of having someone around.<br /><br />Oh just wait to see issue 10, whatever Lobdell is planning with JD is very interesting.<br /><br />Indeed that sequence was great although a lot of people didn't took kindly that it was extremely similar to the way Cassandra's skills are usually depicted. In any case, I thought the sequence flowed very well, conveying perfectly Jason's skill while also mirroring with his training with the All-Caste (I have to admit that I loved to see them referenced again). By the way, Jason hold his ground for a bit but eventually the Iron Rule overwhelmed him and only the sudden quake that hit the nethers saved his life.<br /><br />Fernandez does a great job to convey movement and no small part for his experience on the medium. This same experience is what allows him to be more detailed than Medri (he was great but it was obvious he wasn't used the the frantic schedule of American publishers) If I have a complaint about Fernandez' art is the way he draws faces, at times they don't look very detailed creating a very jarring effect.<br /><br />Reading through tumblr I found a post analyzing the sequence where Jason reunites with Roy and Duela and how it perfectly shows their friendship. <br /><br />Roy isn't surprised about Jason's sudden appearance and Jason isn't surprised at Roy having a "gun-arrow" despite Roy hating guns, why? because they're best friends and they KNOW they'll have their back.<br /><br />Having said that, I do hope they separate on friendly terms, their friendship has been so well developed that anything less will be very hard to swallow.Dark_Tzitziminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17055905660404131186noreply@blogger.com
