SforHope,

I am attempting to assemble a reading order for myself for Jason Todd as Robin. According to the wiki, Earth-One's Jason Todd's last appearance is supposedly Batman Vol 1 400, with the cover date of October, 1986. The wiki also says that New Earth's Jason Todd's first appearance as Batman Vol 1 408. However, there are a number of issues where NE Jason is listed as being the Jason in the issue...but they were published between #400 and #408.

I understand the other characters in these issues (such as #401-403) are also listed as New Earth characters, and I figure their being NE characters may be part of why Jason is listed as the NE version. But still, I need some help figuring out a proper reading order. Is it that #408 is the first chronological appearance because it's a flashback issue? It's not listed as flashback, but I am trying to figure this split out. I am somewhat confused here.

Could you be of help? I am trying to figure out the appearance order between the cover dates of October, 1986, and October, 1987, for Jason Todd. I am trying to have the list transition between Earth-One and New Earth as seamlessly as possible.

Thank you, N8
