Description
omigod...sooo out of it!
Mom broke her ankle over a week ago and I've taken up all her duties around the house and with dad. I'm also still working full time...so I barely have any time to get on the computer, much less draw. *groans* Sorry guys!ha ha, I sketched this out a long time ago on Open Canvas. Tis unmasked Red X catching an unmasked Batgirl!
(i'm lazy with masks...and damn if I don't like drawing faces...) And if you've seen my previous picture of Red X...you'll know in my fandom Red X is Jason Todd. Hehe...Sorry felt like sharing one more crack pairing with y'all. (Yup, even American comics could not be spared of my Crack Pairing ways)
And yes, I know Jason Todd has never met Cass Cain...though I can't help but wonder what that meeting will be like when they do.*looks at the current state of Batman comics*
On second thought, nevermind. I'll wait till a writer who gives a damn comes along. Cass is pretty far from her original self, and Jason Todd is currently....well, yeah....Let's not go there.
Knowing DC...their meeting would be a disappointment. I mean, lord, they couldn't even right get what was essentially THE reunion with her closest friend Steph. Cass also hasn't interacted with new Robin, Damian, even though out of everyone, she's probably the best person to handle him due to their similar backgrounds.
Guh...this normally wouldn't bug me if not for the fact that DC ALLOWED Cass to be "adopted" by Batman. *headdesk* not that I was fond of that idea...nor the execution of that idea...but...what the fuck? So...Cass fans had to suffer through that horrid less than mediocre Batgirl miniseries last year only to have everything in it be ignored by current Batman writers? Man I feel sorry for everyone who bought that miniseries...
arrgh, anyways. Back to the picture....*think happy thoughts* Yes, I love fandom. It's the thing that keeps me entertained when canon blows. ^^
I tried staying true to the Red X costume from the Teen Titans cartoon, but adapting it to a man's body. Yeah, still struggling here with anatomy.
I decided to give him a cape that gets raggedy at the end, making it more wraith/grim reaper-like/broken wing-like I guess?The only thing I changed about Cass' Batgirl uniform is the belt. Girl needs a belt with pouches that don't bounce up and stick out like some funky tutu.
Now why Jason and Cass? Well, they're opposites and yet not. I could go on forever but this is long enough. I think they'd make a fun double act Yeah, Jason Todd's a bad boy, but damn can he be funny at the worst of times. He's a cheeky character, so I can see him playing the comic foil to Cass's straight man. XD She's not a dummy, tho, so I can see her putting him in place from time to time, not to mention beating him when it comes to fighting...
Feel free to blame Greeneyelove on livejournal. She used to write the loveliest jason/cass fanfics some time ago.
Others have too, but I first discovered it first through her. And I think she wrote the longest ones...*remembers Alley Bats fondly...*btw, us romantic fangirls aren't the only one who thinks Cass and Jason would be interesting together. Hell, some folks think they'd make a neat pair of anti-heroes...(saving good people and killing the bad guys).
But yeah, seems like I'm the only one who's made Jason Red X. He's usually Red Hood or some other fan made costume. *do not like Red Robin much...*
Oh well, who knows what DC will end up doing with him. I just hope he doesn't die. Ugh, that would be so annoying. Same with Cass. really hope she doesn't die and just decides to continue with her soul-searching trip she was supposed to take at the end of her original series. *sighs*
Jason Todd, Red X, Cassandra Cain, Batgirl sadly do not belong to me. I'd treat them a WHOLE lot better than DC does. No one sue me. This is just for shits and giggles. Enjoy!

"That's why I couldn't draw any masks on them, felt it took away something"
Heh. Fine with me, since I've never much cared for the Red X mask (I'm just not a big fan of the cowl-type masks- Batman's is okay, but I've never really liked most of them.), lol. The rest of the costume looks great, though.
*sighs* If only canon didn't suck, eh?

Sorry about your Mom, hope she gets well soon.
The picture is lovely, especially the faces. (One good reason for not drawing masks) and the flowing capes! Love the capes! Interesting pairing, also.
It’s a shame the Cass and Steph reunion didn’t get the justice it deserved, though certain characters(Below ‘A-list’ and/or not a DC big wig’s favorite) getting shafted is nothing new in DC.
Funny enough, ‘Red X’ was mentioned in the DCU. However not seen, he was just mentioned as a cat burglar in the “Terror Titans” series. (IMHO, That, Static’s introduction, and Miss Martian being awesome were the only things worthwhile about the miniseries)

aw, thank you! 
Heh heh, I like Jason's cape more than Batgirl's...
And yeah, i get that, but damn it's annoying when they put so much effort into a character (making a miniseries, making her leader of the Outsiders)...and then totally ignore her character history. Good grief, why not just make a new character altogether and leave the old one alone. Less painful on everyone.
lol, I avoided that miniseries like the plague. It just looked awful to me, even with Miss Martian! But hey, that's cool to hear. lol, Red X does exist woot! XD Heh, thanks for letting me know!

There’s probably a lot of ‘interesting’ reasons why, but I think it may be this: If they use a character that’s been around awhile - not extremely well known, but still has plenty of fans – to fill whatever niche(appropriate or not), there is a guarantee fans will follow the character to see what's in store for them. A brand-spanking new character may not bring that as easily, unless perhaps they’re part of a legacy or something. Could work in some cases, but situations like Batgirl's. . . nada. (I’m just as annoyed as you are. Trust me.)
That, and creativity seems to be lacking these days. Take for example the ‘Titans” comic. For its first 14 issues it had two traitor stories, using characters who have already betrayed their teammates before at least two times (each!).
Yeah, I didn't care about the series, either. Mostly because I can’t stand Ravager, but due to my curiosity/ masochistic tendencies and interest in TT related items I checked out a few scans. But, yes it is cool seeing aspects of DC cartoons being acknowledged/hinted in the mainstream comics. Yay for that!

I just don't like the whole Nightwing to Batman conversion. I mean, WTH????
Jason and Cass..interesting pairing. I think the anatomy is very good, it doesn't look awkward.

lol, I don't mind it mostly cuz I know Bruce will be back...but yeah, I fear what will happen to Dick after he comes back. Hm...
Yay! it is a funky pair, which is probably why I liked it. I'm into funky pairings (ie. Crack Pairings). heh he, thank you so much! I'm so relieved to hear that. Something about it was bugging me but I can't tell...(maybe his shoulder?) Thank you!

I suspected as much, mostly because a DC without Bats is unimaginable. It just doesn't work. 
The shoulders look fine to me.^^ Slightly wide looking, but I'd expect a comic-ified X to have wide shoulders. Considering the way the animation usually portrays people anyway.
