You Draw Her With Wavy Hair, But Im Really Curious On What A Curly Haired Steph Would Look In Your Style

dripped out .!!!!!

See I wanna make a joke about the orange juice cartons but then Dick says some shit like that and it's like ok. nothings funny anymore I guess

I'll probably digitize it, but God knows when that will be

The real reason Tim has such a hatred for Damian is that Alfred refused to let him keep his cat but Damian gets a whole ass zoo

i think it’s funny that when damian goes missing bruce is calling all hands on deck to look for him like really getting the entire family involved but when cass gets kidnapped out of gotham by her mother and disappears that’s just tuesday. she’ll be back needing a glass of milk and a bath eventually don’t worry.

Remember when Dick jumped off a building and tried to commit altruistic suicide, and Clark snatched him out of the air and was like, "Lighten up, lad."

Reminds me of when Dick jumped off a building and Clark snatched him up and was like, "Nightwing! I thought you were a suicide!"

And that reminds me of the other time Dick jumped off a building and Clark grabbed him and was like, "I've got you! I'm sure things seem tough, but this isn't the answer, man!"

And that reminds me of the OTHER time Dick jumped off a building when Bludhaven had been hit by Chemo, and Clark scruffed him and was like, "Get out of here, Dick. You're going to die."

And Dick was like, "That is sound advice that I'm absolutely going to ignore!"

I just think the common theme between these scenarios is interesting is all.

The Many Post-Crisis Christmases of Tim Drake

Yes, everyone gets a few Holiday issues over the years, but Tim’s got his own special levels of trauma associated with the holiday.

A round up of every time Tim appears in comics about Christmas, sorted by year:

1990: Identity Crisis - Batman #455-457 aka Janet Drake’s funeral. Janet is buried on Christmas Eve. Jack’s still in a coma. Tim is living with Bruce at this point. Tim spends a lot of this storyline having nightmares and worrying by Jason’s memorial case. At the very end, Bruce and Alfred give Tim his personal Robin costume and Tim goes out officially as Robin for the first time.

1996: Holiday Bash I – “Just Another Night” it’s just a small mention here, but given future events it’s worth noting. Tim leaves a Christmas card for Alfred, and Jack takes Tim to the Caribbean for the holidays. Very in line with Tim’s behaviour during this period, where he’s noted for giving Babs thank you notes.

1998: Holiday Bash III – “Alone for the Holidays” aka the single point in canon that supports Neglected Sad Boi Tim Drake. Tim is, as the title implies, alone for the holidays and moping about it. Jack and Dana are trapped in Chicago because the airport is closed due to snow (Why Jack and Dana are in Chicago is left to the reader). Babs and Dick call Tim over to the Clock Tower for a Loners Christmas Party. It will never not be funny to me that Alfred and Harold are at this Loners Party, but Bruce isn’t. Only a TRUE committed loner misses the family loners Christmas party.

1999: Endgame, No Man’s Land (LotDK #126, Batman #574, ‘Tec #741). If you are unfamiliar with this classic story, Joker kidnaps 36 babies on Christmas Eve in No Man’s Land and threatens to blow them all up. Tim gets called away from Christmas dinner with Jack (as a note, Tim’s outside NML at the dinner, then immediately dives inside for this. Never bother trying to make sense of how often Tim got in and out of Gotham during NML) and is helping track down the babies. It’s…traumatic for everyone involved.

2001: Young Justice #40. The Night Before Doomsday. This is the story where Santa dies and Young Justice find themselves having to deliver all the presents on his behalf.

2006: Slayride, ‘Tec #826. Tim is running away from a group of drug dealers and is offered a ride by a passing car. The car is driven by Joker. Tim gets tied up with Christmas lights and eventually distracts him via an argument with Joker about the Marx Brothers.

2008: “It’s a Wonderful Night” and “The Night Before Christmas”, DCU Holiday Special #1 2008. Two reminders that Tim has a hard time at Christmas in one!

“It’s a Wonderful Night” is a tear jerker where Dick goes looking for Tim to deliver a Christmas present. He finds him at a cinema watching a showing of It’s a Wonderful Life. Captain Boomerang Jnr is also there. Tim and Owen bond over their dead dads both liking the movie (which…given their dads killed each other, is a thing) and Dick gives Tim his old Robin costume. You WILL cry.

“The Night Before Christmas” is a Titans story, particularly notable as far as Tim goes in that Tim and Cassie talk about how the holidays remind Tim of the people he’s lost (and look, for perfectly good reasons, given the above).

This !!!!

I feel like a lot of this comes from people who are uncomfortable with the whole “child soldier” concept and try to make it Less Bad by aging them up. But at the end of the day, Robin was designed as a vessel for child readers to imagine themselves as Batman’s sidekick. The whole concept of Superheroes is so impossibly ludicrous in the first place, I don’t think it’s necessary to try to apply real life morals to Every Single Situation. Let the nine year old fight crime in a silly outfit! It’s fiction!

i don’t really fuck with people making robin (any of them, really) much older then they were originally when they were introduced. ofc comics are sometimes vague about that sort of thing, but dick turned eight already living in wayne manor, so it feels weird when we have him start being robin at any older than 10. it cuts his time short when it was the longest period of batman history and also takes away the key factor that explains his actions and thought process as a child

time in comics is different than the real world, obviously, but we NEED to try and translate some of the irl context into the stories. a reader can’t understand the weight of dick needing to get out of batman’s shadow after being his sidekick for decades if in universe he was there for 3 years at best

god i want the laytons back
