As a longtime Batman fan, I’ve always felt Robin was essential to the dynamic, but Jason Todd… well, he just didn’t quite *fit*. It’s wild to think it’s been over four decades since he first donned the costume, and even more shocking that fans actually voted to kill him off after just five years as Robin! When *Batman* #366 hit the stands, it promised a fresh start, but looking back, that hope feels misplaced. Honestly, Jason Todd seemed destined to fail from the beginning. I think DC made a mistake even putting him in the role. The various Robins are so important to Batman’s story, but Jason never felt like his own person, and that ultimately did him in.

Several new games have come out recently that aren’t worth your time. South of Midnight, from Compulsion Games, was released in the spring. Avowed, developed by the RPG experts at Obsidian Entertainment, came out in February. And last month, Xbox released Gears of War: Reloaded, which you can safely skip, especially if you’re an Xbox or PC gamer.

Team Cherry is working on an update to address player feedback about the game’s difficulty. While the update will make the game generally easier, some specific issues won’t be fixed. A major point of discussion among fans is the ‘double contact damage’ – getting hit twice in quick succession. The original game had damage from contact, and even double damage in some cases, but it didn’t have damage stacking from multiple hits at once, as contact damage was usually limited to one instance per mask. Recently, many players on the game’s Reddit page have been asking Team Cherry to adjust this system.
