This series delves into the history and current dealings of Jason Todd aka Red Hood. He goes after criminals who have done things seriously wrong and some he kills and some he doesn’t. In the first season, he mostly goes after the likes of Riddler, Black Mask, Killer Croc, and other similar criminals. But the worst of them all he goes after, is of course the Joker. In the second season, Jason lightens up a little and starts to relent from killing his enemies and lets them get apprehended by the police. He has gotten over his past and killing every criminal he sees and gets more merciful in his interrogation tactics. But that doesn’t make him any less brutal. Jason starts tracking a string of murders that involve high ranking Gotham officials. These murders turn out to be orchestrated by the Court of Owls, a secretive organization started in the late 1700s to “purify” Gotham. The members of the Court include rich or powerful people or families of Gotham.
