      I think a lot of people like it for the differences between Slades relationship with Dick Grayson,because Jason is morally looser than Dick,he can team up with slade for any reason,and his killer skills would impress a soldier like Slade,so long as it doesnt stop slade from doing a job

    People pointing out how Deathstroke would be very unlikely to take a contract with the Joker, however I like to believe it was a ruse. Deathstroke finding out one of Batman's Robins was alive, that Joker has been crushing the boy's will into dust? Deathstroke saw an opportunity there. Notice how Deathstroke for all the ways he could have landed a shot on Jason only elected to give Jason the most superficial of wounds before explaining the contract, he was giving the boy the chance to work for him. He always planned on double-crossing the Joker, and setting up Jason was an audition.

    The Joker is one of the few people that Deathstroke would never accept a contract from under any circumstances. He does have morals to an extent. He also doesn't accept contracts that aren't meaningful and stimulating to him and/or those that don't push his limits. So a completely and utterly out of character setup to their partnership if nothing else, demonstrating grave misunderstandings of both Jason and Slade. I like the idea of Jason getting away on his own and building up the militia himself, he VERY much could do that especially arkhamverse Jason. I'm also a fan of the idea that deathstroke was brought in as a contingency plan during the events of the game in real time when it seems like Jason and Scarecrow were in real danger of being defeated, which dovetails perfectly with the idea that Jason put the militia together himself.

      Ya’ll give credit to him for something he never did. He is all about “killing people that deserve it” but Jason will never canonically kill any major villain that matters for the same reason why the Gotham Government never kills the joker or why Batman never kills the joker.
      At least Batman is consistent and never kills anyone. While Jason only kills unimportant henchmen that are just doing their jobs and never someone that matters.

    Bleh... Don't think I'll read this one.
    I feel like the idea that Jason would need to be systematically brainwashed by the Joker in order to end up hating Batman does a serious disservice to what he went through. I think just being tortured for more than a year, going through every day hoping that Batman will come save him, only to have him NOT show up, day after day, week after week, month after month... That would be enough for him to reject Batman. The pain of being left alone to suffer would be enough, even without the Joker's influence.
    Plus, I don't like seeing Harley cheerfully torturing someone. I like my Harley to be bad, but not too bad.

      I guess it's a good thing you can just kind of pick and choose whichever version makes the most sense to you, since there are so many writers. Like, I liked how in The Dark Prince Charming she has an agreement with the Joker that they don't hurt kids or little old grannies.

      @@thehumblepotatoreborn9313 In both cases the writers are attributing too much to Joker's power and not enough to the person's own feelings and motivations.
      Harley is based on women who fall in love with serial killers. People who have a bizarre positive draw to serial killers are like that in part because they associate power with violence. It's safe to say when Harley does crimes with Joker, it's not just to please him, but because she, too, gets a thrill out of wielding that kind of power over people, and sees the Joker as an integral means to accessing it.

    Everyone wondering why jason was in arkham knight, it’s pretty obvious.
    Jason’s armor protected him from the gunshot. Then joker continued to torture him for a year until arkham asylum. Then during the titan joker vs batman boss fight jason tried to escape. Then deathstroke shot him in the shoulder explaining that joker paid him to kill Jason, and jason told him joker was going to be taken out and slade wouldn’t be paid and told him that he’d triple the amount to help him escape. So basically no joker did not let jason escape and he didn’t die and get revived by the lazarus pit. Deathstroke helped him escape and worked for jason then on, that’s why he took over for jason after the arkham knight disappeared
