I made a timeline google doc :)
It's mostly focused on the stuff of fanfics. If you know where Helena, JPV, or Duke fit in- or if I've missed any important events- please let me know.
Edit: here are some updated preview pics! (Duke, Helena, and Jean-Paul added. A few other things clarified.)

Bruce: Jason, you have to let Joker face the justice system! You canāt take retribution into your own hands!
Also Bruce: *fucking lies to CPS about Jasonās death to protect his fursona ergo not seeking justice for Jason through the courts*
In case it seems redundant and unreasonable for Bruce to reveal his identity just to publicly accuse Joker of murder when Joker is already known to be a murderer, Bruce also went out of his way to get Joker released the one time he was about to get sent to the death penalty because Joker didnāt commit that specific crime.
Jason could've actually tried to take the joker solo and reckless and ignoring orders and id still cheer him on and still say he shouldn't be victim blamed. But i think its important still that dc intentionally lies n retcons about what happened
I think a lot of people would understand Dick being weird about Talia if they wrote her with their actual ages. (Which is to say, be less racist about it and have Dick be more weirded the fuck out by Bruce dating a woman who's roughly around his age.)
Learning that Talia was not supposed to be ancient like Ras and using the pit and was actually in her early twenties changed basically every scene with her in it, like, she should be back in college!!!! She sould be nervously going out to a club for the first time!!

Batfam where everything is what you typically come across except instead of Jason calling Tim 'pretender' or 'replacement' he just calls him a larper
My mundane magic Jason headcanon is that he can pull his helmet out and put it away just whenever. He basically just summons it. He does literally do this in comics but the general assumptions is just not wanting to waste the panel space to tell you where he got it or where i went. But i like thinking he just pulls it out of the air
This is the kinda Jason stuff I wanna see in his comic. >_<
As much as I love Jason Todd, the Prince of Gotham, the Robin who grew up in the middle of Crime Alley, there is something hilarious about Jason also being the Robin who is constantly abroad.
Dick is 25 minutes down the road. Tim, Steph, Damian, and Duke are there.
Jason could be in space. He could be on a private island drinking a cocktail. He could be in a hidden monastery where he trained with a bunch of semi-magical warrior monks. He could be anywhere. And thatās fucking hilarious.
Heās an exiled prince! Oh god I wish more people leaned into the drama of this, of not being allowed home when home is an entire kingdom city.
*batman voice* Gerard Way?

Yall ever think that Jason has the occasional crisis because he named himself Red Hood and one of the Joker's aliases, before he fell in the acid, was The Red Hood?
Fun fact: The mantle of āRed Hoodā is a reference to The Killing Joke!
In particular, this scene:
and this quote:
It reflects Jasonās very jaded perspective on superheroism (and supervillainy.) One of my favorite aspects of Winickās writing.
Romani Jason Todd
the butt panel
I think a lot of the weirdness surrounding Jasonās characterization in post-crisis can be explained by the fact that Dick and Tim must be given a piece of the Jason-pie. Jason had a very compelling and dramatic dynamic with Bruce, so of course Dick and Tim needed to get in on the action as well. (Bruce is emotionally affected by Jason so Tim must prove his mettle by being an unimpressed brick wall. Bruce is āhatedā by Jason so Dickās specialness is proven by how Jason still likes and admires Dick, etc)
Anyways this is kinda salty but something I like to indulge in sometimes is reading all of Jasonās appearances in their comics as being solely their perception of Jason, rather than how he really was. The way Jason is used in their stories says something about their characters, but what does it say when the narrative isnāt particularly set on propping them up as the protagonists?
Tim thinks Jason is an emotionally unstable reckless idiot whose ideas are wayyyy too extreme, Dick thinks Jason is straight up crazy (literally as well as in the derogatory sense) and they both think that Jason is obsessed with them.
In Titanās Tower and Brothers in Blood, Jasonās return ignites a minor identity crisis in both of them. Jason comes to Tim raving about being forgotten. Tim seems to resent Jasonās memoryā for being the Robin that died, that failed Batman, and stained the mantle.
Jason comes to Dick as an evil doppelgƤnger. An image of what Dick mightāve been, or could still become if he lets go of himself. Unlike Timās Jason who simply is inferior, Dickās Jason has a whole inferiority complex. Dickās Jason noticeably lacks any of ārealā Jasonās usual pragmatism (a trait that even Timās Jason has) and is instead just a childish copycat performerā¦ what does that say about Dickās unconscious impression of Jason?
Applying this lens to UTH itself is also interesting. (Of course we canāt say the entire comic is just Bruce hallucinating, but we can consider the comic to be the story of the āactualā events as told by Bruce.)
That UTH is written pretty much entirely from Bruce and Alfredās perspective, with no thought boxes from Jasonās POV at all, indicates that Bruce doesnāt assume (or canāt predict) what Jason is thinking.
Bruce does understand that Jason is a pragmatist, but he also (incorrectly) connects Jasonās cynicism as Red Hood to Jasonās attitude as Robin. To Bruce, Jason was not an idealist who was burnedā he was already a cynic as a child and he only got worse.
The fact that only Jasonās harshest interactions with criminals are depicted is also interesting, because this is a comic where Bruce straight up calls criminals garbage, and can be quoted as calling them āmalignant scum that ravage the city.ā Bruce seems to think that Jasonās willingness to kill is the result of having the same contempt for ~criminal scum~ but less temperance. Itās possible/likely that Bruce holds himself responsible for Jasonās actions; if not his actions then his attitude.
What if I said the reason Jason "steals all of Dick's friends" is because he died before he could form his own team, and then by the time he came back DC had aged him up so aggressively that he no longer fit with the generation that actually would have matched his age? What if the problem is that Jason should be far younger, but the team ups with heroes from Dick's generation enable audiences to forget that Jason should actually be closer to Tim's age than Dick's? What then?

Fic where Jason and Judy meet at the graveyard and become friends
Why the fuck would Duke Thomas at 12 years old know who Red Hood was. How many 12 year olds do you know who are keyed into the big figures and events of the criminal underworld? What the fuck are we even saying
