Also, I calculated the time it takes for the poison to run through your system and gave special calculations just to compensate for heavy activity, all so I can deliver a witty one liner before you drop.
Or he could tell that the first signs of the poisons were hitting and was able to time his one liner because it was obvious (to him) the guy was going to keel over any second.
Well if it's still canon, then she was concieved at the first Woodstock festival, so chronologically she must be in her forties in the very least at the moment, I guess.
Not unique to Tim, most memorable example I can think of was "V" for Vendetta when V wakes the.. Doctor? he was planning to kill when she's asleep in her home, and when she asks if what he has planned for her will hurt, he points out he injected her with a painless poison ten minutes earlier whilst she was still asleep.
I'd have to check TV Tropes to be sure, but I'm pretty sure the whole "poisoning before the battle" thing is actually a fairly common move.
And it seems pretty IC to me? Of course, I do tend to take Winick's Red Hood Jason as definitive characterization for post-resurrection Jason and I would hope he'd keep to that characterization here, so take this with a grain of salt, but I don't really see a problem with it. Jason's impulsive and loses his temper quickly, but he isn't an idiot. He saw something was up, uncovered the human trafficking ring, realized they were loading the kids up, and acted quickly to take out a guy experience'd shown he couldn't fight.
The only downside to this mini is I wish we could get more meat to it. On the one hand, while I'm loving Jason's journey, it does feel a little safe. And yeah, there's the cliche of the "I poisoned your drink!" but then there's the last two pages of Jason talking to Talia about 'putting a reptile down' that make up for it. Still, I loved this issue. Plus that cover!
