"I’m Thinking That It Must Be Love"
198*: Love at first sight. About thirty years later: A two Soulmates conversation.
Remembering the eternal David Bowie. January 10th, 2016.
"Apparently, we get lost between conversations even before we see each other: yesterday you didn't tell me about Bowie thing anymore!"
"F*ck! Since today I've been thinking the exact same thing! Proving that we are the absolute masters of digression, we then got lost in a thousand other conversations! Well. Since David Bowie is your "religious orientation", I will now tell you how it became mine"
"It’s not the side-effects of the cocaine, I’m thinking that it must be love" ... directly from "Station to Station!"
"Oh my God! I die for this song! I love it, not only for the lyrics and the music, but also for the love it gave birth to!"
"Oh... Tell me!"
"Well. And when I start like this, you’re finished!"
"Hey! That's all I'm waiting for!"
"Well. Let me start by saying that I already knew David Bowie, but more as an actor than as a singer. Just think that, at the time, I didn't even know that it was him who sang the famous "Let's Dance". I think I was about twelve years old, because was in the middle school. One day, an amazing teacher came to my school for a drug addiction prevention project. The teacher told us about a German little girl who, years earlier, had become a heroin addict at almost our age, and he strongly recommended reading her book. But fate would have it that, in those days, the movie was broadcast on TV and I rushed to watch it. I still remember the beginning... "Piss and shit everywhere!" and Christiane getting a tattoo on her hand. Well. Since I'm already digress, because I have a billion things to say on the movie and the book too, I'll skip straight to David Bowie!"
“You know, the first book I bought in my life was “Christiane F. we kids from Berlin Zoo”. Then I watched the movie, again and again”
"Oh my God! It's incredibile... "
"Yes... we're talking about a book and movie that are very, very important to me. Continued!"
"Then, comes the scene when Christiane goes to Bowie's concert with her toxic friend. I was already all excited because I had just listened "Heroes", in that memorable scene where Christiane, Detlef and their friends run like crazy in the deserted Europa Center, laughing and doing a thousand stupid things! The scene ends with Christiane and Detlef together on the terrace, watching the sunrise. Unforgettable! "Heroes" had driven me crazy, but it was still nothing compared to the shock I had afterwards!"
"Sure, I guess! Continued!"
"Now imagine: about 198* - 198*, I was already listening a lot of the music that you and me love, but also a lot, a lot... metal! Forgive me, I know you hate it! 80s hair and glam metal too! Big hair, heavy makeup, motorcycles, spectacular shows, strippers, and various exaggerations! WELL. In the growing emotion before the start of the concert, suddenly the lights opens and HE arrives, with his red jacket!"
"Eh... "
"And what does he do? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Just his entrance and presence on stage is enough to hypnotize the audience. Gently touch the microphone and start singing. It almost doesn't move! Sublime!"
"Immense charm... you said well, very, very well. It's the same effect it had on me! I swear. The same..."
"Station to Station"… all Bowie's songs are masterpieces, but this is the favourite, because it introduced me to Bowie's immense and genial universe and made me fall in love with his art"
"The elegance, the mangnetism is had, was inexplicable!"
Even today it's not the side-effects of the cocaine, I'm sure it's True Love.

So Danny and Ellie are in a predicament.
Ellie has been freshly deaged to a 18 month year old. Sam, Tucker and Jazz are dead and gone.
Danny who is 23 ish is running from the GIW and Fentons ends up in Gotham when he gets caught
Last minute he shoves Ellie into an alley and leaves a note if to someone finds her
And he’s gone, taken.
Damian is now 23 and Batman. Bruce and Alfred have passed away (Bruce’s heart couldn’t take years of being Batman and Alfred got too old)
Everyone else… to put it lightly… aren’t on speaking terms.
Dick is in Bludhaven, Cass is in Kong, Jason is with his outlaws, Tim alternates between the Titans and WE (but doesn’t talk to Damian outside of the company). Duke and Steph are in collage.
Damian is alone.
Back to Ellie. Damian is on patrol and finds a crying baby in an alley at 1 am.
At first, he’s angry. What kind of parent leaves their child like that?
Then he finds the note
He takes Ellie in and raises her alone in the manor while being Batman and trying to find her dad.
Leslie- who’s now retired- helps in babysitting Ellie when he’s busy with being Batman or WE but hes always there to tuck her in every night.
Eventually, Duke- tired of the family’s pride and stubbornness ruining their family- comes home for Christmas break (around 6 months after Damian found Ellie)
He arrives while Batman is on patrol, hoping to surprise him and instead has his shit rocked by a 2 year old with Lazarus green eyes the moment he walked in the Batcave.
Damian arrives and explains everything.
Duke switches to online collage and resumes living in the manor.
Signal is back on the streets and Ellie gets an uncle.
Tim is the next person who catches on.
He realizes Batman’s patrol routes are shorter (Damian didn’t want to leave Ellie alone at night) and Batman sometimes abandons patrol in the middle to leave (Ellie was crying and Leslie couldn’t calm her down)
And so Tim pays him a visit and he sees Damian napping with a two year old on the couch and is like :0
So, instead of doing the Logical thing and waking him up he leaves and calls the rest of the family.
While Duke laughs in his face, the others plan to all appear next week at the manor and interrogate Damian as to why he adopted a kid.
Coincidentally, that night The GIW have cracked down as to where the ghost baby is and they break into Wayne Manor while Damian is on patrol.
He doesn’t get back in time.
Everyone else arrives a week later to find Damian in the batcave, looking like he was close to a passing out from exhaustion.
Duke returns from patrol and explains the situation and everyone bands together to help Damian find his daughter
They didn’t find her, but they find Danny.
After busting him out and telling Danny that Damian was the one who took care of Ellie for months
He eventually heals his wounds in the safety of Wayne Manor.
However, because Damian was the one to raise Ellie for months and the other not only ignored his calls but didn’t even stop by to check up on him he doesn’t trust the others as much.
So Damian ends up caring for him.
And over the course of the three months it took for them to locate Ellie, they begin to fall in love.
Cue the rescue mission the moment they find Ellie.
Damian and Danny eventually get together and GIW gets dismantled. Everything is fine and dandy…right?

From the Legion M website... The retail edition of Defiant: The Story of Robert Smalls Comic Book #1 will be hitting comic shops across the country on November 6th, 2024. From now until September 26th, retailers can pre-order these special editions (featuring a unique cover different from our Kickstarter and Comic-Con versions), but we need your help to get Defiant into as many stores as possible!
Typically, independent comics often don’t make it onto shelves unless there's demand, and that’s where the power of the Legion comes in. By reaching out to your local comic shops and requesting Defiant Comic Book #1, you can help ensure they stock it. More books in stores mean more people discover the incredible story of Robert Smalls, which brings us one step closer to seeing it on the big screen.
We’d be so grateful if you could share the order codes below with your favorite comic retailers and encourage them to place a pre-order. Even better, if you don’t mind spending a few extra dollars, you can place an order for one (or more if you are aiming to get the “virgin” variant cover) yourself. Your support makes all the difference, and we couldn’t do this without you!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Catalog: In the "Diamond Previews" catalog (which comic shops can order from), Defiant Comic Book #1 will be listed under "Stranger Comics" which can be found in the independent publisher section on page 386.
What's Available For Pre-Order:
Defiant #1 Caanan White Main Cover - Diamond Order Code SEP242067
Defiant #1 1:10 Virgin Retailer Incentive Cover - Diamond Order Code SEP242068
Variant "Virgin" Cover: A virgin cover means that the full cover image is depicted without titles or logos. For Defiant Comic Book #1, there is a 1 in 10 ratio variant (often depicted as 1:10) that is a virgin of the main cover. This means that for every 10 regular copies a retailer orders, they can order 1 copy of the virgin cover, which helps to preserve the limited nature of the variant. With that in mind, while you may request the virgin variant from your retailer, they will likely charge more or require that you order more copies to be able to get it.
For folks that can't make it to stores: Can’t make it to your local shop in-person? You can pre-order through Diamond's Pullbox Service.

Completely inspired by the steamer DamianxDanny AU
So Dani has been traveling the world for four years at this point, learning about culture.
A big part about culture is music
So Dani learned to sing and play instruments from around the world.
And she gets good.
So at the Casper High senior bonfire for graduating seniors and family (Danny and the crew) someone records her singing a mix of traditional songs from countries around the world and posts it under an anonymous account.(probably Wes)
And it goes viral.
People are begging Dani to do a song from their country.
So Dani makes an account for her singing. She wears a mask though, so no one knows her identity (it would be kinda hard to explain her lack of legal papers). The account quickly explodes in popularity.
Eventually Bruce finds it and immediately begins to track her down because the anonymous singer the Ghost (the fan base calls themselves spirits) has Lazarus green eyes.
But because Dani has no legal papers, they most he can find is Danny Fenton, who is male, 18, freshly in collage, and has the singing voice of a dump truck. He’s differently not the Ghost.
Damian notices his father struggling with a case, and decides to help by watching each and every one of the Ghosts video.
And, somewhere along the way, he ends up falling a little.
Now he wants to find Ghost to take her on a date, not interrogate her.
One day, Ghost stops posting.
The entire world is demanding for answers, enough so that the JLA gets involved.
The only person who has any information is the new leaguer Red Huntress, vigilante that protected her town for years with the help of a ghost named Phantom (who had also vanished during that time)
Dani and Danny are in major shit.
The GIW found her and Danny and promptly vanished them off the face of the earth.
The only person who has any idea that they are not dead is Duke Thomas, who was on a call with his childhood friend Danny when he and his sister was taken.
Duke Thomas is currently on the run from the GIW because he know that Danny’s and Dani Fenton didn’t die in the FentonWorks Lab explosion
