let's begin. Batman the Brave and the Bold. We begin with
his first appearance, in an alternate universe, where he became a vigilante called Red
Hood to oppose the injustice syndicate, dressed the exact same as the Joker did
before he was transformed. When they found his hideout at the Ace Chemical Plant,
Owlman threw him in a vat of chemicals. Though the acid disfigured him, unlike his
standard counterpart, he didn't go insane but instead continued the persona to stop
the syndicate. When his team was captured, he used a device called the phase oscillator
to send his calling card to a different Earth, in hopes of finding allies. When Batman responds
disguised as Owlman, Red Hood is captured, and Cyclone interrogates him later. As he then guides
Batman to his location, to free him and the other heroes, they assemble for a final battle against
the syndicate, where the heroes emerge victorious. Whoever he is, I hope my counterpart
on your world will have a chance to repay you. Somehow that seems unlikely. Oh and
expect an owl man-shaped package momentarily. Batman under the Red Hood.
Five years after Jason's death, a new vigilante calling himself Red Hood
emerges in Gotham to take over Black Mask's territory. After he reminds Batman
of his first failure, creating the Joker, Batman and Nightwing chase him to
investigate and realize he's well-trained; where Batman later discovers that Jason's alive
because Ra's Al Ghul resurrected him. Elsewhere, as Red Hood has continuously interfered with
his operations, making him desperate, Black Mask hires the Joker to eliminate him. However,
when Joker changes the plan, Red Hood confronts and kidnaps him. After torturing Joker, as
he did with him, he battles Batman in an epic battle of skills, all leading to his planned
endgame with the three of them. He reveals he's angry because Batman let the Joker live,
so he gives him a choice, kill the Joker now, or he'll kill him, though Batman refuses, so he
sets off a bomb and escapes after it explodes. Black mask it's just a part of the plan. You're
becoming a crime Lord. Yes. You can't stop crime; that's what you never understood. You
want to rule them by fear but what do you do with the ones who aren't afraid. I'm
doing what you won't. I'm taking them out Gotham. Now, Red Hood doesn't appear in the
traditional sense, as a gang member brings a red mask to a robbery, making him seem
invincible, and because he was spontaneous, the media dubs them the red hood gang. As the
mask symbolizes the leader and gives confidence, gang members kill the previous owner for it.
The last guy was overconfident, resulting in the death of the red hood gang. Then in season
3, Butch Gilzean secretly reforms the gang, who wears customized masks and crashes the
penguin's press conference to break his mother's statue. As Penguin is Butch's boss, before he
can uncover the truth, Butch kills the entire gang to appear as a hero, though, Nygma sets him
up to reveal that he's the Red Hood Gang's leader. It's the hood. It's good luck I'm
telling you. I feel like a totally different person with it on. Sit down
will you? We need to go over tomorrow's score. This sets us apart. It's a piece of
cloth, two holes cut out of. It's a symbol Batman The Killing Joke. In the film
adapted from the well-beloved comic, the flashbacks reveal Red Hood and the origin of
the Joker. While struggling to make money as a comedian to support his wife and unborn child,
he agrees to help break into his old workplace, Ace Chemicals. They reveal he'll wear the red hood
mask to ensure he isn't connected to the robbery, but while his wife dies in an accident,
leaving no motivation, they force him to continue. So, he dresses up in a
tux with the red cape and mask, but when they break in, security spots them,
and they run. As he's confronted by Batman, in fear, he trips on his cape and falls into
a vat of chemicals, transforming him. After emerging and removing the red hood mask,
he's driven insane and becomes the Joker. That's the Red Hood's mask. Smarten up wise guy; there ain't no red hood. Just a bunch
of guys like yourself and a mask. Right, the most valued member of the crew,
he gets to wear it no questions asked. The Lego Batman movie. Making his Lego
debut, he has several cameos as one of Batman's rogues' gallery. While the Joker already
exists, and it's unlikely that he's Jason Todd, it's assumed that he's a normal person,
adopting the identity of the Red Hood gang's leader. He's usually in the background but is
mainly seen helping Joker take over Gotham, being forced to surrender with the other
villains, wearing an orange jumpsuit in Arkham, helping Batman stop Joker's army from
the Phantom Zone, connecting to force Gotham back together, and celebrating
with everyone when they're victorious. Batman Ninja. In the anime-styled film,
Gorilla Grodd activates his quake engine, transporting everyone at Arkham Asylum to feudal
Japan. When Batman arrives two years later, he learns that the batfamily also made the time
jump and that Red Hood is currently doing recon. When he locates the Joker and Harley Quinn
as farmers who have lost their memories, he attacks them for what he did to him and believes
they're faking it, until Batman intervenes. He was right to assume the worst, as when their memories
return because of a plant, Joker creates a super mech by merging other ones, while the batfamily
fights supervillains. After Red Hood defeats Deathstroke and Batman defeats Joker, they
use the quake engine to return to the present. You think I'm that stupid? Do you expect me to
believe the Joker has taken up farming? Honey. You two Harley Quinn. Oh my love oh my
love I don't know why. I owe you this. Lego Batman Family Matters. After leaving
the cave because Batman treated him unfairly, instead of Jason dying, he adopts the Red
Hood persona many years later and teams up with Two-Face. He then lures the batfamily and
sends them to defuse fake bombs across Gotham, but later kidnaps them for an endgame
with Batman. After revealing he's Jason, he also reveals that he wanted revenge
on Batman for kicking him out and not caring. However, when he realizes he's wrong
about Batman, Two-Face double-crosses him and uses the artificial intelligence Brother Eye
to take over Gotham. While the batfamily attack his OMAC drones and Batman faces Two-Face,
Red Hood focuses on stopping Brother Eye. He's just as human as you and me. He likes to
talk a good game but Bruce is so busy with his mission that he's forgotten to care for those
around him. Heck he just told Alfred to close his family business with no thought as
to what that would mean for the city. Teen Titans Go. In the rebooted series,
5 seasons into the show, Joker's Red Hood makes a brief cameo when discussing origin
stories. Upon witnessing Billy Batson's transformation into Shazam, the teen
titans, fascinated with his powers, interrupt him when he battles Mister Mind.
Believing that he has a tragic origin story, Robin asks Shazam how he got
his powers and gives examples of accidents that transformed people.
While listing some, he briefly mentions radiation and Red Hood, who fell into a vat
of chemicals, transforming him into the Joker. You're like a like a Christmas miracle. It's too good to be true. He probably has a
super tragic origin story. How'd you become a superhero? Radiation, accident at the chemical
plant? A mighty wizard gave me superpowers. Young Justice. Now appearing in the hit animated
series, we know that Jason Todd died sometime before season 2 after seeing his holographic
memorial in mount justice and the Watchtower. However, in season 3, on infinity island, the
home of Ra's Al Ghul, he returns from the dead dressed as a Red Hooded ninja who obeys his every
command. When Nightwing and his team invade the island to extract their team, he engages them
in combat until Ra's lets them leave freely. While his memories gradually return, he
came back in season 4, though his character arc wasn't developed as he had a minor role,
appearing whenever Ra's or his follower Sensei showed up. Maybe we would have had something
if the series returned for a fifth season. Grayson. Ah, your memories'
finally returning excellent Batman death in the family. In the interactive
film, viewers can alter the outcome of Robin's death shown in Under the Red Hood. If viewers
select the option that Robin dies, in the aftermath of the original film, Bruce talks
with Clark about what transpired 5 years after Jason's death. Now if viewers choose the
option, Batman saves Robin, Bruce dies instead, but Jason remains conflicted because he's full
of rage and Bruce asked him not to kill. So, he then adopts the Joker's former identity to
get his attention, and after a fight with him, viewers have to choose whether to spare or kill
him. Afterwards, he learns Talia resurrected Batman, to which viewers choose again,
whether to battle Batman for death or life. I knew there was a joke under that hood but
I never saw this punchline coming. You gave up the gimmicks he gave you and now
you're the spitting energy of me. I took your gimmicks to draw you out and take
you down for what you did to me and to him. Titans. Now ending with his final appearance,
scarecrow's anti-fear gas and Jason's past trauma cause him to die at the hands of the
Joker. All according to Scarecrow's plan, he resurrects Jason with a lazarus pit and
manipulates him with a drug. As Jason joins Crane as his enforcer, he becomes Gotham's new
vigilante, Red Hood. However, he begins to kill, starting with the lieutenants of mob bosses,
to convince them to partner with him. Later, he betrays the Titans, going as far as
killing Hank and continually battling Nightwing. Eventually, Jason comes to his senses
and teams up to stop Crane, but later leaves to run solo. He then briefly returns in season
4, where he trains Tim to be the next Robin Bruce always told me you were better
than me with the toys. Jason? In living colour. I got a new name now bro. You'll
be hearing a lot around here. Red Hood. Now with the end of his evolution
