reading comics really gives you an understanding of how many panels floating around have Very Different meanings in context

Happy Birthday to Bruce Wayne, I hope he gets put in a blender for my entertainment

From 1989 to 2011, Barbara Gordon was widely considered the best-written disabled character in mainstream comics.  She remains the best representation that the disabled community have ever had from DC Comics.  Her disability did not prevent her from being a hero.  She had no superpowers to fall back on, unlike characters such as Daredevil and Professor X.  As Oracle, she moved out of Batman’s shadow to become her own woman, without forgetting where she came from. She led her own team, became a member of the Justice League in her own right, and provided a unique role linking together the heroes of DC Earth.

In 2011 DC put an end to that, stripping her of her leadership role, making her younger, regressing her back into a girl dressed like Batman, and deciding that representing the disabled community simply wasn’t worth the effort.  One of the most distinct silhouettes in mainstream comics was abandoned to give her back the standard young able-bodied attractive heroine body.

I can understand that the designs for female heroes’ costumes are so bad that there’s a lot of excitement for one that’s remotely practical.

But it does sadden me a great deal to see so many people effectively applauding what is one of the biggest steps backward mainstream comics have ever seen in terms of representation and diversity.

my general opinion is that Cass and Tim are the two Batfam members who should always be ready to throw hands with Jason at the slightest provocation

Everyone else is varying shades of "gets along with Jason" to "dislikes him but doesn't say anything," but Tim was calling Jason a loser to his face while getting beaten half to death and Cass is diametrically opposed to everything he believes in. It's only right to make them fight
