mercy is my name. but it is not my way.

I enjoy the idea of a younger Bruce (about early twenties) adopting Dick because I think it makes Bruce’s immaturity as a father figure more endearing. If anything, father doesn’t come into the picture until much later—it’s more of a brotherly configuration, at first.

Bruce takes Dick in because he sees the parallels of their situation and wants Dick to have a different future than him, but he doesn’t understand kids. So he lets Dick do whatever he wants; eat ice-cream at 3am, skip school, play whatever video games he wants, in the way your older sibling will sit you in front of the TV while they talk to friends or something.

He indulges Dick’s whims because he thinks that’s what kids should be able to do. He’s working off an immature, naive framework.

But then Dick becomes Robin, and things get real, fast. And Bruce realizes he has to take more responsibility for Dick. There needs to be limits and boundaries.

And Dick doesn’t understand the shift because he viewed Bruce as this older brother/mentor figure who was permissive and let him have the freedom to do what he wants. Now he can’t, and it feels like an invasion of boundaries instead of what it is; developing healthy ones.

So they fight. And bicker. And Dick probably throws in a few “I hate you”s that wound Bruce more than he ever thought possible. But slowly, they mature. Bruce prioritizes Dick’s well-being while still giving him what a kid needs and Dick realizes how much Bruce really cares.

And slowly, they grow to be father and son.

🐛I am here with the silly asks

So u have any comic reccs !

Hello! I'm so bad recommending stuff because I'm never sure if the things I enjoy will interest someone else. Also I'm kind of on a slump, I'm still reading 4 comic books at once and I'm not very fast, but I'm not super in love with any of them... I'm trying to find something to wow me once again... But I do have some recent favorites I can share!

Beginning with Superman vs. Brainiac, it's a collected book with most of Brainiac's major appearances from the 50s to the 2000s, Brainiac is one of my favorite Superman villains, a chaotic control-freak green robot (who befriends and betrays Luthor), what's not to love? / Alan Scott: Green Lantern is my most recent discovery and the book I was constantly thinking about for the last couple of months, it follows the early adventures of Alan, his first lover, and his relationship with the JSA, a moving tale of discovery and loss, one of my favorite reads this year

Now something for Halloween, two books about homicidal children, Little Monsters follows a group of vampire kids living on a post-apocalyptic world, they have a found-family dynamic, but there's a lot of angst buried underneath the charmingly portrayed little faces, the art is truly beautiful and Lemire's writing is touching / Serial by Terry Moore is a violent b&w comic following a 50 year old woman trapped in the body of a 10 year old girl in her quest for revenge, she's tracking a serial killer and... just read this, I love this book and the whole story is only 200 pages long
