>only people who don’t know Jason Todd would like the Dark Trinity
nah dark trinity was based since it actually took the character outside of Gotham for once and it actually acknowledged that Gotham isn't the center of the universe and that the other A-listers like Superman and Wonder Woman exist. Shared continuity is important when writing a capeshit book. I like Jason, I don't like him in Gotham because he'll never ever be allowed to be anything more than a punching bag for Batman if he stays there. Even Superman isn't allowed to fix Gotham, let alone a former sidekick. The city is literally corrosive to any character that touches it because it's THE symbol of permanent status quo. Nothing you do in Gotham ever matters. You can't fix it and you can't even kill the villains escaping Arkham through a revolving door. You can't even have the bad guys thrown in the Phantom Zone because that would involve acknowledging heroes besides Batman exist. You can't have Wonder Woman lasso them and have them confess they've never once considered rehabilitation and will always always always try to escape and kill more people unless you cut their heads off because that would make Batman look stupid.

Gotham sucks. It's supposed to suck. It's Batman's personal purgatory. That's why Nightwing left in order to stand on his own two feet, other characters can only actually matter if they're not in Gotham. In Gotham nothing matters and nothing ever gets better by design and anyone trying is wrong and exists to get dunked on by Batman. Jason doing shit like fighting an angry exiled Amazon out in the desert who's trying to get a magic superweapon artifact so she can blow up the middle east is cool because it's NOT in Gotham and therefore shit can actually happen and people can actually die and the status quo can change. An entire city gets vaporized with an Egyptian god's superweapon, multiple people die including the villain, the Amazons integrate with civilian government.
