Hi cl! I was wondering if you have or one day would make a recommended reading list for dick?

Yea!! I would love to!

For Robin- the best would be Batman 1940, Batman: Golden Age Omnibus, Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet, and Robin: Year One

Untainted by bored and desperate authors, the comics are genuinely funny and interesting and action packed. I love puns and humor and good fighting so Batman 1940 was top tier for me. Batman: Golden Age Omnibus I really liked Bruce and Dick's casual "you're like a brother-son-friend-partner" thing that flowed so naturally.

Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet and Robin: Year One show Dick's capabilities and and how excellent he is even though Batman 1940 shows that too, these are more recent. Whoever wrote The Gauntlet-I'm kowtowing to you. It's god tier work, thank you.

Batman and Robin, A Boy Wonder

I know this is a controversial one because of what Frank Miller makes Dick do but also I just considered it to be part of this universe's batman's psyche. But Frank Miller aside from this one can go suck it. I love everyone in it.

Robin and Batman by Jeff Lemire

This comic talks about Dick directly after his parents' passing. It shows how instead of angry like people think, he was mostly sad and lonely and how he and Batman both grew from this. Going from grief to the light of Batman's darkness that he's known to be.

The Detective Comics

It's Batman and Robin stuff but you know it's just like a progression of the Batman comics but different stories.

The World's Finest Comics both the 1941 and the new one.

Dick's relationship with the Titans and family- Batman: A lonely place of dying.

It takes place some time after Jason's death and shows how Tim joined the family. I love the way they wrote every character. I'm going to put up a post later about Dick and the Titans and this comic is quintessential to that. MUST. READ.

Want more incentive? It's all about Dick and Alfred's relationship and how they're the best father and son.

Dick's relationship with the Titans and Outsiders

Teen Titans (1966) - the silver age, og titans.

The New Teen Titans (1980)

The New Teen Titans: Judas Contract

The New Teen Titans (1984)

Nightwing Dick- Nightwing 1996 and 2011

Okay. I know people hate Chuck Dixon but honestly, I think he's one of the greatest Nightwing writers. With him, the writing felt continuous and fluent. It takes you from Dick being fired to the majority of his life. Every arc that was written was excellent because even when Dick was at his worst mentally, emotionally, and physically, he was a formidable foe. He's a tactical genius and one of the strongest fighters and Chuck Dixon put him through a lot but one thing he never did was nerf him. This was very good.

ACTUALLY NO- I LOVED THIS SPECTACULAR, MARVELOUS, BEAUTIFUL, EXTRAORDINARY, BRILLIANT WORK. LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS.

Nightwing 2011 will be one of my all time favorites. Undefeatable badass boy. The entirety of Nightwing 2016 has nothing on even a single panel from Nightwing 2011. Glorious work.

Batman Dick- Batman: Streets of Gotham

The things is, Dick was a very good Batman. Actually, he was an excellent Batman. Maybe it's because he's an excellent actor but the internal struggle he had was not outwardly shown when he was Batman thus effectively convincing the public that there was not a different man under the mask (They could only tell because he actually cared about people unlike Bruce). Actually I like him better than Bruce Batman because Dick's actions as Batman at that time were cooler than any Bruce has taken. I know it's hard to believe but this comic was fantastic in showcasing that.

Other top favorites- Nightwing: The New Order, Future State: Nightwing, and Grayson Comics

I'm literally going feral over New Order. Nightwing is the world's favorite (as expected) and has an entire army to himself. He also has a kid named Jake Grayson and JAKE IS THE CUTEST ADORABLEST KID EVER. I LOVE Kori but what I love even more is Dick is a single mom to Jake because Kori left and Jake loves Dick so much! I cried at the end because how badly I was moved.

Future State! Future State Gotham was trash. It was so bad I had to search for a trashcan to dry heave over because it's character assassination. That comic was so bad other DC authors just refused to acknowledge its existence. Future State: Nightwing showcases just how brilliant Dick is. Ever heard the saying, "There's method to my madness?" Dick always has a plan. It's only madness for those that don't understand the full scale of it.

Heh. Everyone hated the Grayson comics but honestly? I loved it. Dick was manipulative, talented, excellent fighter, and a spy. Every task he took he excelled in it. They said that Dick wasn't made for spying but they weren't talking about his skill set. They were talking about his emotions. Even Tiger- Spyral's number 1 asesst and spy- was outplayed by Dick multiple times. If Helena hadn't become Matron, Dick would've burned Spyral to the ground so completely not even ashes of the fire he had set would have been left as evidence for beetles to collect.

Batman/Nightwing: Bloodbourne

Pure fighting prowess. It reiterates the fact that Dick is undefeatable.

Batman and Robin (2009)

Dick!Bats and Damian's run as Batman and Robin. It sheds light onto the hardships of raising an assassin child. People think that Damian would just follow someone along and become good if they knew him earlier but you don't understand. Dick. Put. Work. Into. Damian. Their obsessed with each other relationship exists because Damian is fully aware of the amount of time, effort, and love Dick has given him and reciprocates that. He loves Dick beyond measure and will fight anyone who says even one word against him.

Batman and Robin Eternal

Really talks about Bruce's impact on Dick, Dick's impact on Bruce, family dynamics, batfamily working together, intelligence and fight skills of Dick Grayson. There's a couple plot holes in the middle with about 2-3 panels being wrong but everything else is so correct.

Convergence

Do you want to know how important Dick is in terms of the multiverse's perseverance and continuation? This one!

With a Resounding "Yes", It's Time for Paranormasight VA Headcanons!

I'm going to be an oddball and switch between Japanese & English VAs when I find it relevant. Also my order's gonna be based on how strongly I think the headcanon works. I'll also try to provide examples for the angle I'm going for

let's a go

Tetsuo Tsutsumi Japanese: Option 1 - Akio Otsuka (Executioner from Akudama Drive). Option 2 - Jouji Nakata (Osvald from Octopath Traveler 2) English: Option 1 - Jamieson Price (Malik Caesar from Tales of Graces F). Option 2 - Jason Douglas (Kishibe from Chainsaw Man)

Middle aged men characters are my specialty so really it depends on the delivery you want. Richard Epcar (Ace from 999) could also work for English as well as Bill Butts (Ciocolotta from Jojo part 5)

Makoto Ashimiya/Fumichika Nejima Japanese: Kenjiro Tsuda (Ogata from Golden Kamuy...and also Kishibe from Chainsaw Man). Katsuyuki Konishi could also be a good example but I can't really think of an old man character. I guess Takehito Koyasu could also work? But like this is THE most TsudaKen looking motherfucker I've ever seen English: Joe J. Thomas (Nobunaga Hazama from Hunter x Hunter). His "So I did" line really cemented this casting choice tbh.

Richter Kai Japanese: Shiniciro Miki (Kisuke Urahara from Bleach) English: For this, it depends again on the delivery you want. I originally wanted Doug Erholz (maybe not like Vega from Street Fighter), but upon closer inspection, Ray Chase (Uzui Tengen from Demon Slayer) might be a better pick.

Harue Shigima English: Laura Post (Empress from A Hat in Time) Japanese: Kikuko Inoue (Rhea from Fire Emblem Three Houses)

It just works, it just works~

Shogo Okiie English: Chris Hackney (Yuito from Scarlet Nexus) Japanese: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Noctis from Final Fantasy 15)

Standard older protagonist

Jun Erio Japanese: Kaito Ishikawa (Noe from Case Study of Vanitas or Iida from My Hero Academia) English: Griffin Burns (Doppio from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure). Zeno Robinson (Akira from Zom 100) would also work great!

An excitable character that I think can work great with the right delivery.

Takumi Yumioka Japanese: Toshiyuki Morikawa (Yoshikage Kira from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure) English: Ben Lepley (Gouto from 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim)

I feel like a flat delivery that still has an air of intimidation would work best for him.

Mayu Chozawa English: Option 1 - Tara Sands (Sonya from Fire Emblem Echoes); Option 2 - Cristina Vee (Velvet from Tales of Berseria). Amanda C. Miller (Sailor Jupiter from Sailor Moon) is also a good pick along with Heather Gonzalez (Cherche from Fire Emblem Heroes) Japanese: Miyuki Sawashiro (Kyoko Honda from Fruits Basket). Nana Mizuki could also work, though I sadly can't think of a role off the top of my head

Going for the woman who grew up a punk vibe

Yutaro Namigaki Japanese: Jun Fukuyama (Draluc from Vampire Dies in No Time) English: It's tempting to put Xander Mobus for the total Joker Persona 5 duology but ehhhhh. It depends on the delivery again. Brian Beacock (Luthier from Fire Emblem Echoes) or Steve Staley (Hubert from Tales of Graces F) could also work tbh. Maybe Lucien Dodge (Waver Velvet from Fate/Zero)

Ayame Touno English: Faye Mata (Amame from AI: The Somnium Files) Japanese: Rie Kugimiya (Rise from Persona 4)

The voices contrast each other, but I think each one compliments the kind of character Ayame is.

Storyteller Japanese: Hochu Otsuka (Tsurumi from Golden Kamuy) English: TBD

Here's where I'm starting to think about 1 solid casting and kinda improvising for the second one. I think the Storyteller changes voices depending on the mask they wear, so for this old man mask, an old man they shall sound like.

Michiyo Shiraishi English: Xanthe Huynh (Marianne from Fire Emblem Three Houses) Japanese: Aya Endo (Miyuki from Lucky Star)

Few lines for such a sweet gal

Yakko Sakazaki English: Abby Trott (Older Annette from Fire Emblem Three Houses). For some reason I also pictured Cassandra Lee Morris (Tomi Kisaragi from 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim) Japanese: Marina Inoue (Female Protagonist from Persona 3 Portable)

Spunky young lady, ain't she?

Mio Kurosuzu English: Amber Connor (Faye from Fire Emblem Echoes) Japanese: Rie Murakawa (Est from Fire Emblem Echoes)

Young but calm & sweet

Yoko Fukunaga English: Cherami Leigh (Patty from Soul Eater) Japanese: Saori Hayami (Yor from Spy x Family)

Not related to casting but I think she and Ayame would be weird girl besties and I love that for them

Hideiki Araishi English: Patrick Seitz (there's a specific role in mind that sounds similar to Mama from AI: The Somnium Files but naaah that doesn't sound right) Japanese: Tomokazu Sugita (sadly can't think of a role off the top of my head)

He's a bit of a snob so something a bit arrogant works best

Kohei Jounichi Japanese: Here's where I think Katsuyki Konishi would fit best (Koito from Golden Kamuy comes to mind, oddly). Makoto Furukawa (why did I think Ronaldo from Vampire Dies in No Time??) could also work English: I think this will depend on the delivery. Do you want him more cowardly? I kinda see David Vincent tbh (Henri from Iruma-kun)

Hajime Yoshimi English: He could be another potential Patrick Seitz role, but I want to avoid double casting as much as possible. Japanese: Subaru Kimura (Todo from Jujutsu Kaisen)

Hitomi Okuda Japanese: Ai Farouz (Jolyne Kujo from JJBA) English: Option 1 - Laura Stahl (Alear from Fire Emblem Engage); Option 2 - Erica Mendez (can't think of a role off the top of my head)

Once again going for toughness, but from a younger angle

aaaand I think that's all the voiced characters! Some roles I had to think up of on the spot, so I might come back and revisit this, but I'm open for suggestions as well!

[bushins-admirer]

...May have to start a campaign to have Guy confirmed for Year 3 DLC for Street Fighter 6.

What's needed:

An updated movelist, based on Final Fight 3 (e.g.: chain combo ending with a short range ki attack (NOT A PROJECTILE)).

New design: Frankly, I'm getting tired of motherfuckers saying that Guy has "a boring design", so why not give him a new look. Maybe a mix of his SFV concept art and Final Fight Streetwise (the one with that tattoo 🫦) would be ideal as a default...or as an alternate, a sexy three piece business suit, Italian cut of course, like he has on for Street Fighter Duel; he can still keep his original Alpha costume for the nostalgia 😉

A new story mode, something to do about learning about the incident at Nayshall, all the while learning that Dictator/M. Bison (Vega within the Japanese FGC circles) has been revived...make it like an investigation or something. Another will be a long-awaited reunion with his old friend Cody, who he learned that he is the current Mayor of Metro City.

Jason C. Miller to reprise the role of the Bushinryu ninja for English VA; for Japanese VA it will be the original--Tetsuya Iwanaga *Note: he is also Ken's VA in the Alpha/Zero series

Include him as a "Final Fight" DLC pack along with Cody, Poison and Sodom (Katana)

All us Guy fans gotta do now is to keep our fingers crossed and hope he makes it to the roster...

Dustin Poirier Net Worth, Biography, Career, Income, Home & Age

What is Dustin Poirier's Net Worth? American mixed martial arts fighter Dustin Poirier has a net worth of $6 million. He is best known for being the interim UFC Lightweight Champion and for fighting Conor McGregor multiple times. In 2019, he became the Interim UFC Lightweight Champion. In 2022, he moved up to the number two spot in the UFC rankings for lightweights. Poirier gives to charity often and has his own brands of Cajun hot sauce and bourbon that he sells. Conor McGregor Fights and Earnings On January 23, 2021, Dustin defeated Conor McGregor at UFC 257. Dustin was guaranteed $1 million for the fight, vs Conor's $5 million. That does not include a cut of Pay Per View. Early Life and Career Dustin Poirier was born on January 19, 1989 in Lafayette, Louisiana to parents of Acadian French descent. As a teenager, he attended Northside High School for a brief period of time before dropping out due to repeated street-fighting skirmishes. Career Beginnings In 2009, Poirier started getting paid to fight in MMA. In a short amount of time, he put together an impressive 7-0 record by mostly competing in local events in Louisiana and the South. In 2010, when he first competed in World Extreme Cagefighting, Poirier lost to Danny Castillo by unanimous decision. This was his first loss. Later that year, he got back on his feet by beating Zach Micklewright at WEC 52 by TKO. Ultimate Fighting Championship, 2011-2017 After the Ultimate Fighting Championship and World Extreme Cagefighting merged at the end of 2010, Poirier started fighting in the UFC. On New Year's Day 2011, he made his debut in the promotion by taking the place of an injured José Aldo in a fight against Josh Grispi. Poirier won the fight in the end. He beat Jason Young, Pablo Garza, and Max Holloway after that. In May of 2012, Chan Sung Jung beat Poirier in a fight that was named Fight of the Night. Poirier beat Jonathan Brookins in the last fight of the year. Cub Swanson beat him in his first fight of 2013. In his next fight, Poirier beat Erik Koch by coming back strong. Toward the end of 2013, he knocked out Diego Brando. The next year, Poirier beat Akira Corassani in a tough fight and got his second Fight of the Night bonus. But in his next fight, he was knocked out by a TKO from Conor McGregor. After that loss, he moved up to the lightweight division, where people weigh less. In 2015, Poirier's first lightweight fight was against Carlos Diego Ferreira. He knocked out Ferreira in the first round and won Performance of the Night. He then won by TKO in the first round against Yancy Medeiros and got another Performance of the Night bonus. Poirier beat Joseph Duffy to start off 2016. He then beat Bobby Green at UFC 199 in June. In September, Michael Johnson was able to beat Poirier. His next fight, which took place early in 2017, was a brutal one against Jim Miller. He beat Miller, but he was badly hurt in the process. After he got better, he fought Eddie Alvarez in a fight that was ruled a draw. In November, Poirier won his last fight of the year against Anthony Pettis by TKO. (Photo by Logan Riely/Getty Images) Ultimate Fighting Championship, 2018-2022 In April 2018, Poirier fought Justin Gaethje after getting a new deal with the UFC. He won the fight by TKO. Next, he fought Eddie Alvarez again and won by TKO, just like the first time. Poirier's first fight of 2019 was against Max Holloway, who was the UFC Featherweight Champion, for the title of Interim UFC Lightweight Champion. He won the back-and-forth fight by a unanimous decision, which ended Holloway's 13-fight winning streak. At UFC 242, Poirier went up against Khabib Nurmagomedov, the unbeaten UFC Lightweight Champion. Poirier lost to Nurmagomedov by submission in the third round. One of Poirier's most exciting fights was against Dan Hooker in June 2020. Poirier won by unanimous decision and earned his seventh Fight of the Night title. It was a back-and-forth fight. In early 2021, Poirier fought Conor McGregor again. Unlike the first time, he won, making him the first person in MMA to knock out McGregor. Poirier fought McGregor again that summer and knocked him out again to win. At the end of the year, he fought Charles Oliveira for the UFC Lightweight Championship, but Oliveira beat him. When Poirier beat Michael Chandler at UFC 281 in 2022, he had better luck. Charity Poirier gives a lot of money to charitable causes. In 2018, he and his wife started the Good Fight Foundation, which raises money for many different causes. People have given money to help the Acadiana Outreach Center, the family of a Lafayette, Louisiana, police officer who died, and hospital workers, among other groups. Poirier also put some of his UFC fight kits up for auction to raise money for the Second Harvest Food Bank and Lafayette schoolchildren. Business Ventures On the business side of things, Poirier released a brand of Louisiana-style Cajun hot sauce in late 2020. Later, in 2022, he released a brand of bourbon called Rare Stash. Personal Life In 2009, Poirier married Jolie LeBlanc. The couple had a child in 2016. Read the full article

A.N: This list is MOSTLY satirical. A.N.N: Yes, it's Toxic Purity Culture. A.N.N.N: This is stupid.

What the fuck is irredeemable media? I thought it was The Turner Diaries and Nazi shit but people are saying Steven Universe is irredeemable? Classic literature?

The hell are they smoking?

Yeah, "irredeemable media" is basically just another purity culture term. It basically just means "anything and everything I don't like" at this point.

“Spirit allies are magical protection. They are actually better spiritual protection than most of your banishing rituals, shields, and amulets. I am referencing so many movies and shows in this chapter, so I will toss one more onto the pile: The Sopranos. Do you know why most people are afraid to mess with Tony Soprano? It's not because he is a great fighter, or even that he carries a gun. They are afraid to mess with him because he is in the mob. You don't want to mess with him because even if you kill him, there will be hell to pay.”

Another passage from Jason Miller’s new book on spiritwork. Thoughts?

Start popping that corn… it’s summer, and Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group have a new animated special just around the corner; set shortly after the events of ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,’ the latest entry in the popular branded cross-saga storytelling hits Disney+ Friday August 5.

Looking for a much-needed break from stormtroopers and TIE fighters, Finn arranges a surprise vacation for his friends Rey, Poe, Rose, Chewie, BB-8, R2-D2, and C-3PO, aboard the ultra-luxurious Galactic Starcruiser, the Halcyon. But Finn’s plan to have one last hurrah together quickly goes awry when he’s separated from the group. While searching for his friends, he encounters three Force ghosts: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Leia Organa, who each share their own unexpected stories of vacations gone wrong, helping him to understand that holidays are about more than just having fun.

LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation features the voices of “Weird Al” Yankovic as Vic Vankoh; Yvette Nicole Brown as Colvett Valeria; Thomas Lennon as Wick Cooper; Paul F. Tompkins as Rad; Dee Bradley Baker as Boba Fett; Ashly Burch as the Tour Droid; Kyliegh Curran as Sidero; Anthony Daniels as C-3PO; Trevor Devall as Emperor Palpatine; Allie Feder as Sy Snootles; Jake Green as Poe Dameron; Matt Lanter as Anakin Skywalker; Ross Marquand as Han Solo; Omar Miller as Finn; Kevin Michael Richardson as Jabba the Hutt; Matt Sloan as Darth Vader; James Arnold Taylor as Obi-Wan Kenobi; Kelly Marie Tran as Rose; Helen Sadler as Rey Skywalker; Billy Dee Williams as Lando (Holovid); Matthew Wood as Ben Solo; and Shelby Young as Leia Organa. It also includes the new original song “Scarif Beach Party” performed by Yankovic.

The film is written and executive produced by David Shayne and directed by Ken Cunningham; James Waugh, Josh Rimes, Jacqui Lopez, Jill Wilfert, Jason Cosler, Keith Malone, and Jennifer Twiner Mccarron also serve as executive producers. LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation is produced in collaboration with Atomic Cartoons.
