a figure I wish DC would bring again in modern comics is nocturna, the bond between her and jason, I miss them :(

Sorry for the belated reply, anon! I actually haven't read those comics. Was she his bio mom or adoptive mom? It would be very interesting to reintroduce her relationship with him without retconning Cathy or Shelia or Talia! I love that Jay collects moms 😎

Before Lost Days, did Talia and Jason ever interact?

Yes and no.

Post-Crisis!Jason never interacted with Talia until he was resurrected. Their first canonical interaction was in Batman Annual #25 (2006), the issue that first explained Jason's resurrection. However, a few subsequent stories that have either focused on or mentioned Jason's Robin era (Lost Days and the 2011 Red Hood and the Outlaws run, for example) have implied that Talia and Jason interacted at least a few times while he was Robin and she thought fondly of him:

Red Hood: The Lost Days #1

Pre-Crisis!Jason, on the other hand, technically interacted with Talia twice: he literally JUST missed interacting with her on-panel in Detective Comics #526 (1983), his first outing as Robin, as he was a bit pre-occupied trying to kill Killer Croc for murdering his parents at the time. He did save her and Selina from being boiled alive, though, and it's implied that they talked on the way back to Wayne Manor:

"Those wild shots broke the main steam pipe! Not steam all over--they'll be boiled alive!" -Detective Comics (1937) #526

Tec 526, concidentally, also has one of the funniest Selina-Talia interactions ever put on page:

[as they drive off together] "Call me sometime." "If he does, dear, I'll rip your hearts out."

The second time Jason and Talia interacted was in Batman #400 (1986)...an all-Arkham+Blackgate breakout orchestrated by Ra's:

The villains split up to kidnap a bunch of people important to Batman (including Gordon, Harvey Bullock, Alfred and his daughter Julia, and Vicki Vale). Jason and Talia pair off to save Gordon and Bullock, who were being held hostage at the GCPD headquarters. They actually work quite well together. Jason seems to know of her but doesn't really know much about her, but I'm pretty sure Talia's passionate declaration that she "would rather die in [Bruce's] world than live in [her] father's" earlier that issue did the trick getting him to trust her.

Ironically, both stories where pre-Crisis!Jason interacts with Talia also feature Selina, and both stories happen because of massive "all villains go after Bruce at once and both Selina and Talia show up to help and protect him" plots. There's probably some interesting meta about Jason's relationship with both women that can be written about that, but I'm not going to do it here.

Unfortunately, after Batman #400 Talia wouldn't show up again in comics until Bride of the Demon in 1991; thus, she never actually met post-Crisis!Jason before his death in 1988. The al Ghuls in general didn't appear between Ra's apparent death in Batman Annual #8 in 1981 and Batman #400 in 1986, where he's inexplicably alive again. Since Jason was introduced in 1983 and murdered in 1988, there basically just weren't a lot of opportunities for Jason and Talia to interact with each other on-panel. But what interaction we do have between the two of them is "ambivalent but cooperative allies" at worst, so at least that's something.

Thinking about that time Bruce was so incredibly sleep deprived that he passed out while driving baby Jason home from school, and Jason had to jump up and grab the steering wheel so they wouldn’t crash and DIE. And then both of them are just SCREAMING as they hurdle down the road in Bruce’s hot pink muscle car.

Wanted to share a few more of my favorite Jason x Rena panels from Detective Comics #563-564, mostly for my own reference but I thought others might enjoy them, too. I’m really fascinated by the idea of Rena existing in post-crisis Jason’s life, but a WOC Rena with a similar background to his own. (More on that later perhaps...)

Precious tiny nerd in love ♥

Jason, bb, you do realize that you’re getting jealous of yourself, right? And I love that Rena says Robin has “cute legs” ;)

So Jason was taken away by a social worker, and Bruce assembled all the WE lawyers to devise a plan to get him back. 

Only a rich person can have the kind of disregard for money that Bruce shows in his speech, but on the other hand, everyone would do anything in their power in this situation. What is remarkable, though, is that Bruce even disregarded the Batsignal.
