Jason Todd is striking out on his own with a vengeance. DC has announced Red Hood , a new DC All In ongoing series debuting in September that sees the former boy wonder leave Gotham and set up shop in his own city. The in-continuity series from writer Gretchen Felker-Martin , artist Jeff Spokes and letterer Becca Carey is intended for readers Ages 17+, and promises to bring Jason back to his violent antihero roots.
Here’s how DC describes Red Hood:
New Angelique, a city drowning in corruption, seems like the perfect place for Red Hood to put down roots. There’s crime, vice, and sedition everywhere. When Jason discovers a super-powered serial killer who is targeting the city’s police, he finds himself sucked into a deadly conspiracy with seemingly no end in sight.
But Jason isn’t the only person on the scene. Following his trail is Helena Bertinelli a.k.a. Huntress. Is she here to stop him, or will she join his crusade? What will happen when the two black sheep of the Bat-Family start working together?
The debut issue of the series will sport a main cover by Spokes and variant covers by Jim Lee (open-to-order), Brian Bolland (open-to-order), Jae Lee (open-to-order), Kyuyong Eom (open-to-order), and Nick Robles (1:25 incentive).
