Something That Tim Drake “superfans” Need To Learn How To Accept Is That The Batfam Doesnt Revolve

Popular Batfam Beliefs That are NOT Canon

I'm gonna start by saying that if you have your opinion on these, it's totally okay! And if you want to include these ideas in fanon, that's fine too. This is only for people who wanna know more about canon, or those who may accidentally be spreading wrong information. I'm not a big comic reader, so do lmk if my research is incorrect, please.

"Tim Drake is/was the CEO of Wayne Enterprises. " This is actually incorrect, Tim Drake was never the CEO of Wayne Enterprises! I think he is a majority shareholder from what various people have told me. Lucius Fox is the CEO. Tim might play some part, I'm not sure, but not the CEO.

"Dick Grayson was a bad brother to Jason Todd." Dick may not have been the best brother as he wasn't around much, but he definitely wasn't horrible. Although he was still upset with Bruce, he actually gave Jason advice on being Robin when they stole the Batmobile together. They had their issues throughout their lives for sure. But Dick was actually really upset when Jason died because no one had told him. He wasn't even able to attend his funeral because he was in space and when he came back he had to figure it out himself.

"Tim Drake is addicted to coffee." I get where this is coming from, but there are very few references of Tim actually drinking much coffee, let alone being addicted to it haha. But, since this headcanon was so popular, it was adopted in the Wayne Family Adventures webtoon comic. I do think he is a workaholic, maybe a little like Bruce, but I'm not sure since I don't read about him much and he's pretty excluded in movies/shows.

Nicknames. Specifically "replacement". Jason actually NEVER called Tim replacement. He did call him pretender, but replacement is used so commonly that people think it's canon. I guess I can see where it's coming from. Other nicknames that are popularly used by fans may be canon but aren't used that often. "Little Wing" was used by Dick to Jason in Nightwing: Year One when Jason was Robin. I don't think it's been used again, but it is super cute. "Jaybird" is not something Dick or Bruce call Jason, it's only used by Roy Harper, seriously sometimes people forget he exists. There are many other nicknames like these ofc but there are way better posts to explain these (I may have reblogged one, so check it out).

5. Some Dick Grayson info that isn't canon but is popularly used in fanon and is pretty cute: Zitka. The elephant Zitka is definitely canon, and actually, I looked it up and there are some adorable panels on these two omg. So yes, he had an elephant named Zitka in the circus who he cared for a lot, but no he does not have an elephant stuffed toy no matter how cute that may be. He is also not addicted to cereal just as Tim isn't addicted to coffee, but a fellow commenter informed me it is his favorite food! One thing I've noticed though is if fans see something in one panel, they make it a huge deal lol. Another popular one is that Dick and Bruce fought a lot in front of Jason. They didn't. They definitely avoided each other and were going through a rough patch but they seldom yelled at each other in front of Jason. So yeah, idk what's up with that.

DAMN. You made it to the end, congratulations, and good job because you have a lot of patience. That's all for now, my fingers are cramping :( . Feel free to ask some questions below, or correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks for reading!

I know that I said in another post that Tim doesn't care about Damian being cruel to him.

But what if it mattered to in a other way.

As in: he knows that he is the only "safe" punching bag in their family for Damian to let his emotions out.

Is it healthy? No. But Tim is also the kid that blackmailed and adopted a grown as man as his tamagotchi.

He sees so much of post Jason Bruce in him that he thinks that he could "fix him".

Tim also knows that his little brother would have a mental breakdown if he attacked Bruce, dick or godforbid Alfred in the way he attacks him.

I think that he blows up one of ras bases whenever Damian does try to "hurt" him, as payback for traumatizing his little stinky brother

I’m trying to get better at coloring so here is a doodle

kind of wanna reinforce this here. because i’ve seen ai writing become so popular on tik tok.

ai writing is not okay.

it’s literally theft. just like how ai art steals, ai writing steals. it’s using authors’ very real work to generate whatever you type in. and this also needs to be said as well.

writing is a form of art. fanfiction is a form of literature.

seeing this all over my fyp is REALLY discouraging. fanfic itself is already a labor of love and we love it when you interact. but please do not use ai writing for your fanfic needs when this writing literally steals from fanfic authors.

genuinely don’t know if this post will go around because my interactions outside of hcs are shit, but i hope it does.

Ain’t no way the og YJ crew didn’t have some trendy 90s merch

I’m very excited for the new Damian comic, it sounds like a really interesting concept!!

But I’m wondering why we didn’t get Tim’s Red Robin costume when we got them for all the other characters?

We actually do see it in one of the previews

Might not had been on the character sheet because he doesn’t use it much? After all it seems like the story is centered around Damian learning from his brothers what it means to be Robin and family, maybe Tim will take more of a how to act in civvies? 🤷‍♀️ just an idea tbh don’t quote me on that

i keep thinking about how we're just watching the exact plan israel has outlined proceed unimpeded by anything at all and how it has rebranded 'ethnic cleansing' into 'humanitarian corridor' even though there are still hundreds of thousands of disabled, homeless, elderly, brave, courageous gazans still in the north and east of gaza where the israeli military is now pointing snipers at convoys of people exiting a hospital waving white flags and even people inside an icu

i think recognizing it as a genocide made people accept that everyone in gaza is already dead and that terrifies me more than anything else. from day 1 it has been clear that israel (which has loudly proclaimed genocidal intent), zionists (who have loudly declared genocidal intent) and the united states (which is loudly suppressing everyone who calls it a genocide) have accepted this as a price

eleven thousand people have died but there are people in gaza still alive. there are millions in gaza still alive. we are in the midst of a genocide. its not a foregone conclusion that it ends in ethnic cleansing or mass death, it is a choice people are making every single minute and every single second, and we have to remind them of it every single minute and every single second that passes

I'm starting a Discowing defense squad.

I love it when Scott tries to sound cool and rebellious to impress people. He's so cute
