This is the Black Cat, you know the nut that does the Batman and Sons webcomic. :)

I need some help on some information concerning Jason Todd's stepmother, Catherine Todd. I have a person who posted on my Deviantart account that she was a drug addict. I searched through my collection but found nothing referring to this. All I know is she died of an illness.

Does anyone know if this is true?

I will appreciate the help. :)

Thank you, and also, I want to thank you all for the great support you have given me for the webcomic.

Have a great day!

And image... I hope I did everything right.

I bet they decided to soften up her death for the kidlets when they wrote the more recent reference.

In the same arc they decided to get their Robin beaten to death while his birth mother was having a smoke and then blown up, they must've had strange priorities. :p

Maybe they just didn't do the research.

Has that been brought up since Jason's been back? Not his death but Shiela?

Actually, I don't know. Sheila being tied up and Jason untying her before the bomb explodes has been used in flashbacks since then. Sheila lighting up a smoke is so deeply ingrained in my Jason canon, though, I'm not sure how I'd take a retcon.

I don't think it has been brought up, which was actually my first thought for a repressed memory, but since rereading, I don't think it is. Still, I don't want it retconned. That scene is too important to me too.

Maybe, since Jason's biological mother was such a monster, they wanted to imply that at least his adoptive mother had been a good parent?

Yeah, maybe. I'm not sure I'd say she was his adoptive mother, though; he didn't find out she wasn't his biological mother until he found his birth certificate. It wasn't a formal adoption, it seemed to be more that Jason's father had remarried and she raised Jason.

She may also have been a good mother until she died of an OD, as well.
