You can fly = You can swim. About Batwing's fun ability to be whatever she wants to be.

New day! New Bat-garage member!

She flies through the clouds. She is not afraid of rain, floods or fires. You've seen it in every media and in every form. Helicopter, propeller chair, shuttle, plane, wing...

I like the episode about meeting Arrow's airplane because it brings up Wing's loneliness. In a sense, this is true, but not in the context of connecting with other machines. Historically, Wing's about Bruce.

I mean, Robin and Batgirl are always changing. Other techniques have been used by many heroes. Batwing and Batmobile are Batman's only. However, the Batmobile is hard to replace as a concept. Because it's the first thing in Gotham. A motorcycle makes you vulnerable to snipers, for example. Batmobile is closed, different sizes, armored, has many levels of speed, can be disguised as any car. The airplane is effective for emergency situations, when you need to distribute antidote on the territory, to get to the far end of the city, to be on the roof at once. Wing doesn't need much profile.

And as we've said before, Bam could replace her in the aerial arena. So there is a question:

Why would Wing have what others have if she's not the most successful at it?

Except for(as) plan B of course...

In what situations do you need a flight?

Long distances. For example, from country to country.

Enemies from the air. Pterodactyls, Germans, parademons.

It's not safe on the ground. The floor is lava.

Your other fast travel is out of use.

The Plane takes advantage of this, but also keeps personal status in mind. Batman's enemies use complex patterns. Freeze can move through water by simply freezing it. The Penguin mostly rides and swims, but his umbrella allows him to soar like a bird. The Joker has giant robots that the Batmobile is useless against.

Wing does not have to take over the functions of others, but she must be prepared for emergencies. It's like a bomb joke. No one taught it to Barbara, and she didn't teach it to Cassandra. But they had to defuse bombs. She gets the skill to just know it. Does that mean all Batwheels should be ready for anything? Not exactly.

It's impossible for a truck to move fast. There will never be enough armor for a motorcycle. Redbird is Robin's transport, and it sets its own parameters, which are usually highly dependent on the owner. Where Tim:

Dick uses lighter approach...

But you can use Wing in most cases. Forest, city, mountains, sometimes space. For chasing, for exploring, for fleeing an explosion, as a shield. You can control altitude, you can turn on stealth, you can launch heavy (they won't fit in a motorcycle, yes) missiles. You'll destroy a tank and bring a birthday present for the kid.

Batwing is unique! Yeah, it's not as versatile as Bam. But she's good at what she does locally. That's why Bruce uses her less often.

But each time it's unusual, sometimes far more original, challenges. That's why she's so different. It's not about time and some kind of sensergy with Batman, but purpose. That's why the character is heavier and more pressurized. She's resilient. Indestructible.

There was supposed to be "Invincible" song from Kirsten Arian here, but it's the Batgirl theme, hence Bibi...

Snow bots au anyone? :D

They're back together a year later because it's snowing again❄️

All right! For context: I imagine them hanging out every winter in some kind of resort (a resort that Blurr owns. Because his bar business has expanded that much over time.)

It feels like an injustice that such big pegasi don't have wings that reach the ground 😂 Mounting up on big horses is a problem in every universe
