Love this video-- fascinating and the differences in Batman's reasoning with Dick vs. Jason was subtle. Great work and hope to see more Super-Psyche videos. :)

@TsukiGeek - Yeah, it is definitely important to realize that Jason was not just a replacement for Dick, he had his own set of issues that Batman tried to address. Hope you enjoy the rest of this mini-series we're doing.

You should have done one on Spider-Man.

Dick jumped into the lifestyle, and Bruce thought he would be safer by his side. Jason was initially a nostalgic version of Dick gone wrong.
