The Joker warned Jason that he would never forget his face before Batman knocked him out.īatman had Jason arrested for his crime, but he was charged as a minor because he had managed to avoid leaving anything probative behind in all of his other crimes. Batman came to and knocked Jason's Pistol out of his hand with a Batarang before he could shoot the Joker point-blank in the head. Incredibly, Jason stole Batman's Grapnel Gun and used it to defeat Joker. Jason saved Batman's life by pushing him, unconscious, out of the way of Joker's machine gun fire. Jason had his first encounter with Batman when he was a witness to a fight between him and the Joker at fifteen shortly after a successful robbery. It was Jason who told Maroni where to find their hiding place, but in exchange, the Maroni Family gave Jason his own patch in Gotham City where he could commit crime without the interference with any of their business. Willis and Cathy were both executed by Maroni when Jason was thirteen. As Jason grew up, Willis frequently told him that he was so worthless that he couldn't even give him away and frequently assaulted him. Willis tried to sell his newborn son to Falcone to settle his debt, but was instead beaten by Sal Maroni. Jason was born on a rooftop to Willis and Cathy Todd, a pair of methamphetamine addicts who were in debt to Carmine Falcone.
