Creation:

He was the replacement for Dick Grayson, the original Robin, as Batman's ally, as Grayson was linked to the Teen Titans. Todd was the subject of a controversial ending as he was killed by the Joker. Todd's death as Robin was described for years as "the worst failure of Batman's career." Later, in the early 2000s, Jason Todd was resurrected, taking on the identity of the antihero Red Hood.

History:

Jason Todd was the son of Willis Todd, a petty thief who died as Two-Face's second-in-command (believed to have been Two-Face's killer) and Catherine Todd, a drug addict. One night Batman found him stealing the wheels off his Batmobile. Instead of getting angry, he was surprised by the boy's skills, but he put him in a school for troubled kids. When he saw that he wasn't adapting, he decided to adopt him in order to rescue him from the streets and from this school. Jason Todd's transition to Robin lasted a few months, but he didn't become Robin until Detective Comics #526 in May of the same year. It was in February 1984 when Dick Grayson officially handed him the position. Jason began training as a detective and combined his new life with high school. were initially opposites and grew closer as the young man settled into his new life. Indeed, their first encounter occurs when, on his annual visit to Crime Alley, Batman finds a clever young criminal (Jason) stealing the wheels of the Batmobile. Jason was part of the New Titans for a brief period when Wonder Girl assembled a new team after the previous one broke up. The new Robin would help the Titans defeat Brother Blood for the umpteenth time. Todd was more proactive and aggressive than the previous wielder of the mantle. He was even able to single-handedly defeat Mongul using the Black Pity flower in the Superman Annual #11 special: "For the Man Who Has Everything".

Story 2

In Batman #426 (1988) unnecessary risks, moral code and not yet having gotten over the death of his parents led Batman to temporarily suspend him from his duties. Wandering around his old neighborhood, the boy ended up discovering that Catherine Todd was not his biological mother. Without further ado, he investigated who could have been his father's lover. He had begun "Batman: A death in the family" (1989). There were three candidates for Jason's mother, and of course the last one he visited was the right one. It was Sheila Haywood, a volunteer who lived in Ethiopia after a dark past and who was blackmailed by the Joker. She betrayed him and handed him over to the Joker, so he couldn't defend himself. Even before he exploded, Jason received the full impact trying to save his mother. After this, Batman searched for the Joker and tried to kill him, leaving him in a helicopter about to explode, miraculously the Joker survived. After his death, Jason joined the list of traumas that Batman had been carrying since the death of his parents, becoming the biggest failure in his career. In addition, it strengthened his enmity with the Joker, to whom he owed the death of Robin and the paraplegia of Batgirl. In this way, Jason has remained explicitly present in Batman's life. In Batman: Hush (2002), Jason makes his first appearance after his death. He engages Batman in combat, but is eventually replaced by Clayface, leading Batman to believe that it was Clayface who fought him all along. However, Jason's grave is found empty. During the Infinite Crisis series, it was revealed that when Superboy-Prime smashed the barriers between worlds, it allowed Todd to return from the dead 6 months after his death (Batman Annual #25). After his resurrection, he spent about a year in a hospital until Talia Al Ghul found him and cured him by putting him in the Lazarus Pit where Ra's Al Ghul was bathing at the same time.
