I just finished the Haven series. Despite its ending (Or lack of one) I had a bunch of questions about the universe surrounding Haven.
Does Jason Die and I just missed it? When does he become Red X? Who is Red Hood? Who was Wingman and how did he die? What, Where, When, Why, Who was the Blockbuster event? What's the Valentines day event? What's the story with the Court of Owls? Can I find all of this info in other stories? Is anyone going to continue Haven?
I loved the story and I love Wachters writing, but I need more of this story. The world he created and the characters in it are really interesting and I need more from it. The only problem it creates is Batman is like the last person from the Bat family to enter the ultimate universe.

The world he created and the characters in it are really interesting and I need more from it. The only problem it creates is Batman is like the last person from the Bat family to enter the ultimate universe. I'm sorry to say that Wachter bailed on us without warning, leaving behind a bunch of future notes for me and Adrini since he was planning crossover material, but unless someone else picks up Haven, you're unlikely to get the finished product. Even if someone else picks it up, Wachter's notes and plans are convoluted enough that under another writer it won't be the same. To answer your questions: The Blockbuster incident was on Valentines Day 2013 and is the official end of Haven, when a battle between Red X, Red Hood, and Talon results in a large explosion in Bludhaven. Chapter 1 starts here and then flashbacks to 2012. Jason Todd officially died in the Blockbuster incident and was buried. Where, how, and why he got the Red X suit is undefined as Wachter didn't get that far. The Court of Owls is a secret society of assassins and criminals most prominent in Bludhaven. Wingman was one of the original Outlaws like Wildcat, Richard Dragon, and Kate Kane's mother. He was also Kate Kane's mentor. He was killed by the original Red Hood. This last part was only hinted at, but enough so that it's in continuity: Thomas Elliot (Hush in the comics), the mayor of Bludhaven, is the original Red Hood and Jason Todd's biological father.

Thanks for the info. That sucks that Wachter bailed. He was an awesome writer.
Follow up questions: Was Stephanie Brown the Spoiler yet? Was Helena the Huntress yet?

Technically yes. They've only been briefly mentioned as such though.
