I think little kids hear that Superman's an alien, and the fact that they don't watch TV interviews or know much about him aside from nice alien means that he'll be saving them or trying to locate parents or just wind up talking to them and kids will solemnly offer to show him human activities like ice-cream or roller coasters and Clark's torn between telling them he's done all that or playing along and making shit up about his weird alien habits.

Batman being secretly a young father when the League is formed has a lot of potential. As the Justice League was originally created years after Robin was, it also works.

Firstly, because that means Batman has only even worked with a child, more so one he is raising. That's his first time having teammates that are adults like him. Which can easily lead to Batman talking to them like he would with a child, because that's what he knows. He is gentle parenting the Justice League, and he didn't plan to, that's just the only way he knows how to work as a team, by being a father. It can be really frustrating at time for his colleagues, because they aren't minors and he isn't their dad, but it would be so funny to watch.

Secondly, because that gives another meaning to Batman saying he's only a part-time member of the JL. Often (at least here, maybe the land of capitalism doesn't let y'all), parents change their work schedule from full-time to part-time, because they need more time to take care of their kid. So, not only it is because he wants to prioritize his city and his mission, but it's also because he needs to pick Dick up from school and play some board games with him. Of course, with how he protects his identity at first, his teammates don't know about the kid, but once they learn about it, it makes sense (especially because the original members don't have kids as old as Dick, if I'm not mistaken, so Bruce is the only parent at first).

batman is an optimist. how much must i shout this fact into the void that is the internet before people realize. he is the biggest optimist in the universe. he is so insufferably compassionate, he is delusionally kind, his worldview is somehow more catholic than matt murdock because he believes in redemption even when hes lost everything over and over and over. gotham is a shithole that deserves to burn, rent is dirt cheap because nobody sane will live there by choice, and it’s crowning achievement is being the home to the biggest max security asylum on earth staffed by people so corrupt that villains escape every other day. and this stupid boy wrapped his mothers broken pearls around his fists like prayer beads and goes out to get his shit rocked every night for the past 20 years because he fell head over heels in love with said shithole city and its garbage residents, funnelling his wealth into the pit of endless greed because he hopes that a few cents will reach the pockets of those who need it

I was watching Penguin last night and was reminded of this Batman artist Tim Sale. I saw his covers for Catwoman: When In Rome over a decade ago and I remember they made such a huge impression on me. Only then I had no idea he was the artist, I only saw the artwork without credit somewhere. I never really seek out superhero comics so I haven't had chance to read these, but his art is really great and thought I would share. Sadly he passed away two years ago.

"I used to hate it here, y'know, even after I got the suit and became Robin. I'd trail after Bruce, watching him get beaten up and spat on. Back in those days people were either scared of him or they hated him. It's not like how it is now.

"So yeah, I'd see him put so much of himself. So much time, and effort, and blood, into helping these.... small, petty people in this disgusting stinking city. and I'd wonder... What's the point?

"Even when I was helping him do it! And I did love helping him, and I liked helping people, but I was so angry. Angry at Bruce and Alfred, Zucco and Haly, the world, my parents. Especially my parents, for dying. For leaving me. For not being smart or skilled or lucky enough to survive. For making me outlive them.

"I'd be running around, all flash and noise, so it was easier for B to lurk in the shadows and the whole time I'm wondering, 'What's the point?'"

"And what did you decide?"

"Hmm... I decided that they matter. All of them. The small-time crooks jacking cars to keep a roof over their head, the junkies who'd scream at us for putting their dealers away, the people who sneered at us and the ones who flinched away.

"They all matter. Even when they hate us. Especially when they hate us really, because they're just like us. They're all sad, hurting people. And maybe if there'd been a Batman and Robin when Zucco was a kid he wouldn't have turned out the way he did. And maybe by doing what we do I can make sure even one kid doesn't see their parents die the way I did.

"Because it's so easy not to care about people, and so much more rewarding to do it anyway.

"And look, I'm not Bruce. Those boots are too big to fill even if I wanted to. But I understan- understood him, and I've been in your position before. A newcomer to this fucked up, shithole of a city.

"I can't ever replace Bruce, and I'm so sorry you didn't get more time with him. But I'll have your back for as long as you'll let me. And maybe I can show you the things about Gotham he loved while I do it."

"..."

"Damian?"

"That is... acceptable. I would like it. To see what Father found so endearing about this place.”
