Belt Of Holding.

Because I’m in this crazy before sleep mood can I talk about how much I love the current World’s Finest series. It’s the only comics I’m really buying right now cause I love them so much and can’t wait.

They can be really silly but I really love them. I love the dynamics between characters, I love how Bruce and Clark are so close, how Dick is just so fun, the doom patrol is there!

Also Dan Mora’s art is so gorgeous. I literally carry the trade copy with me all the time cause I love it so much. It’s my neurodivergent carry book.

This post is getting too long so I’m gonna make multiple

I might go on a world’s finest tangent today.

(Is tangent the right word? Idk)

I just need to talk about how much I love this series.

Beautiful, amazing, incredible

a little update to the animation that was not even supposed to be fully animated :3 finally you can tell who's supposed to be who

"Deconstruction" as a term has been overused at this point (at least the way it's used in online fandoms I interact with), but thinking about it does bring to mind this quote by writer Kurt Busiek that I feel has influenced me quite a bit (I've cited Busiek as an influence on my writing in the past):

"It strikes me that the only reason to take apart a pocket watch, or a car engine, aside from the simple delight of disassembly, is to find out how it works. To understand it, so you can put it back together again better than before, or build a new one that goes beyond what the old one could do. We've been taking apart the superhero for ten years or more; it's time to put it back together and wind it up, time to take it out on the road and floor it, see what it'll do."

You can replace "superhero" with any number of things at this point (magical girls, high fantasy, mecha), and I think the general idea of what Busiek's saying still works.

Here is some examples of this crazy series.

That’s Clark as Superboy

And can you guess who that kid is?

Do people want to hear about the old world’s finest comics. Cause they’re hilarious and stupid and I love them.

(Idk why I ask I’m gonna do it anyways)

Really!! That’s so cool!! I love looking through the old comics and finding things that have probably inspired other things. Like I found a comic with a bunch of pills that gave people kryptonian powers.

Ok so in the new World’s Finest comics Clark gets a sidekick!!! His name is David or Boy Thunder

Ok so I noticed this a while ago but I think David’s costume might be based off of Nova

Am I crazy? Idk it looks similar!

The internet can be so useful and so not useful sometimes 😅

Thanks again for telling me and being so nice!

my apologies Tumblr is a Webbed Site and ate my first message. please read this article in regards to we are robin, it's really common and problematic, but I want people to be aware so we can make fandom safer thanks!

Ok so first of all thank you for telling me about this. I’ve changed it cause I feel like I should, though I do want to mention I meant no malice gang is just part of my vocabulary when I talk about people in a group.

I do want to mention, and I’m sorry if this comes off as rude, that maybe you shouldn’t use the word problematic. It’s often used as a buzzword by people who want to cause problems rather than educate. Example is I like villain characters cause they’re characters and I like to study how they operate for my own stories. But often on other websites (and even this one) people will call that problematic when it’s doesn’t actually affect real people.

Sorry for the rant I just felt like that was important to tell people. But genuinely thank you so much for telling me about this and I really appreciate you going out of your way to tell me about this. And you were incredibly polite about it which I appreciate so much.

Beware the frailty of man.

Sometimes I worry that my love for dc is just more of a batfam thing and then I nearly cry when I see Kara in the My Adventures With Superman trailer.

I’m so ready for the next season please!!!

Oh my god that Gotham tiktok trend is migrating to tumblr!!! Oh my god it’s happening!!!

Well to be fair it’s always existed here as only in Gotham, but it’s getting a resurgence!!!
