Summer 1996. Speaking of getting real: Barbara Gordon confronts Batman about the events of THE KILLING JOKE, in which she was paralyzed by the Joker. This is part of John Ostrander's other major contribution to DC lore; in SUICIDE SQUAD, he and Kim Yale had revived Babs, who had been summarily discarded by Bat-books editor Denny O'Neil as surplus to requirements and also a girl, and reinvented her as Oracle. This scene is from the first story in THE BATMAN CHRONICLES #5, which is not her first appearance as Oracle, but rather an "Oracle: Year One" story chronicling the circumstances of how she created that role. It's infuriating to me that DC has since discarded this version of Barbara Gordon in order to reduce her to Dick Grayson's girlfriend, while also trying to make her younger and younger.

top 5 songs, top 5 single issues of dc comics >:)

top 5 songs:

One foot in front of the other foot by Emilie Autumn

Tango del pecado by Calle 13

Radio-Inactive by Blueprint

Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Greenday

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

top 5 single issues of comics:

Batman Chronicles #5: Oracle Year One: Born of Hope - showstopping, amazing, tells you exactly about Babs's origin as Oracle, so many good quotes. Everyone should read it.

Batman Chronicles #8: The Prison - one of my favorite single issue Talia stories. We get to see inside her head and how she perceives things, we see her execute successfully plan to kill Bruce (But she does not do so), and we get to see her conflict with her father and her dreams!

Secret Origins #20 by Barbara Randall - this is the best Babs as Batgirl origins I've read hands down.

Batgirl (2000) #16 - I love seeing Cass emphasizing with kids and wanting to give people a second chance!! !

Robin: Son of batman #12: Is it cheating to put the end of a storyline in here? Probably. But it has one of my favorite instances of Damian empathizing with another kid he perceives in his situation and that being used to save the world SO...

imagine the brooding, intimidating Batman fighting criminals in the street when he hears this special ringtone in the comms and they're for specific people: his grandkids.

he has to hide in the shadows and goes Grandpa mode, clears his throat and coos lovingly to the comms to talk them.

Nightwing: Oh, he's cooing again.

Red Hood: Lian must have called and asked for more fruit loops.

or

Spoiler: B's doing that baby voice again, it's kinda creepy.

Red Robin: My baby must have dialed, he likes his grandpa's voice.

The rest of the batkids: WHAT BABY?????

Superboy: Our baby.

the batkids curse in different languages, confused and shocked.

***

when some of the rogues or criminals hear Batman in his Grandpa mode, they think he's gone soft.

nope. he's more determined, more restless, more protective, so he won't stop unless they're in Akrham or in jail.

but it's worth it when he comes home to little kids, who are excited to see him.

I’m a big fan of the coldness of the prison contrasting the bright colours of the flashback. And Talia’s inner voice is… just so good.

Penguin: Do you hear something?

The glass ceiling above them gave way and Red Hood descended to the ground. He all right, but incredibly sore and pissed off.

Red Hood: Why do so many Gotham buildings have glass ceilings?! Why haven't they taken care of this? Bat family members take up half the residents! These roofs should be redone to support our weight!

Nightwing (looking down): I'm going to drop down!

Red Hood: Not on me!

Nightwing dropped down, landing on Red Hood's hand and while it wasn't broken, it definitely hurt.

Red Hood (screaming in pain): I said not me!

Nightwing (dismissive): You've been through worse.

@mothman-etd had a job contract interview today, and when they got to the "Do you have any further questions for me" segment, the woman doing the interview said, "No, can't think of anything," paused, then said, "No, actually, whose your favorite Batman?"

And @mothman-etd, who has been living with the irradiated fallout of my current Batman hyperfixation for the last six months just started laughing.

His answer was "Adam West," in case you were wondering.

The interviewer apparently loved this because she started talking to him about how Batman is best when he's a little silly while he smiled and nodded along before telling her, "My wife would agree. Tell me, do you like The Muppets..."

Robin!Jason Todd tried secretly listening to an audiobook one night because crime was super slow and there was a stakeout and he had to keep an eye on everything, but it’s boring.

It worked out well, so he starts doing it more often.

Sometimes he doesn’t get the chance to turn it off or tune it out during a fight, so he then sometimes ends up reacting to the book out loud involuntarily, like saying “what?!” and “no!” in front of bad guys.

It still goes on for another couple weeks until Batman figured out what’s been going on and bans audiobooks on patrols.

(Jason still does it during stakeouts. It’s not patrol)

the batfamily would NOT be on social media at all realistically, but of course tim loooooves photography, so i think he'd be a super dedicated scrapbook-mom type instead. (to compensate for the incredible instagram posts he WOULD make)

like, he's got books for each of his friends, one for each family member, and multiple for pictures of parts of the family and all of them together (although rare). he even has separate books for people in-costume and out-of-costume.

every christmas + birthday he recieves a loooooot of scrapbooking materials, he has draws of washi tape and stickers in his room.

he definitely tries his best to match the themes of the pages to the people in them too, and not one book has the same feel to it. he always writes very sincere little captions under the pictures as well. if he wasn't so attached to the books, he'd give them as gifts.
