#anyway my aus are all wfa aus

2 things I've learned about the batman fandom:

1. Don't ignore canon

2. Except the canon I personally want you to ignore

[hopehuntershq]

Ah, yes, reediting one of my first edits ever just to present you guys Tommy of the WFA universe.

But, to be honest, this Tom (or, Tommy in this case) isn't exclusive to the WFA universe. He is the Tommy of the majority of lighter AUs the fandom creates cause canon is an overly complicated angsty mess.

Which means that AUs like @spicy-apple-pie 's Tommy would also be like this. And many other Tommy's out there too!

Anyway, some fun facts about this Tom:

Very clingy, specially with Tim, Damian and Bruce.

Spends a lot of time alone with Alfred in the manor due to his family's activitities.

He is two years younger than Damian who is 9/10 years old in WFA. so, he is like 7/8.

I feel like he still eventually joins the lab, but the buildup to it was not as complicated as "canon" Tom's. Because a lot of the canon events for the batfam are still intact (Jason's death, Damian's hard life at the League of Assasins and so on...), so, I assume such an event like the Green Light Lab event still happens... sadly.

Most of Tom's plots, at the beginning, would involve his imaginary adventures in Wonderland.

But, as Season 2 would come around the corner, we would have him meeting his canon friends.

This Tommy gets really well with Damian, whom he loves with his whole heart. If you read Mafia Nanny on webtoon, imagine Mikey and Louis.

His relationship with the rest of the family is also, all in all, better, like I can see him asking Jason to read something for him from time to time.

Although, he and Dick's relationship still has some issues, cause Dick usually spends more time with Tim or Damian.

On the merchandising episode, he would choose all the Batman merch just cause of how much he loves his dad.

This Tommy still has faith one day Selina will be a more present mom on his life, and still eagerly awaits her visits... :'(

(Also, drawing Tom as if he was basically mini Bruce is so CUTE! Canon Tom would kill me for saying it, but, it's the truth).

Hi!

New to the blog (Almost steered clear reflexively because of the name - the self announced 'hater' blogs mostly tend to be edgelords - then got lured in by the spider Tim posts)

So don't know if this has been asked before...

In DC Multiverse is real. The stable Universes and the Dark ones born of people's fears which will just disintegrate sooner or later. We saw it in the Death Metal arc...

So, picturing Cartoon/Silver Age/World's Finest/WFA/Fanon Good Dad Bruce somehow ending up in the canon universe.

He's already encountered the Dark Universes.

And he's convinced this is another of those - with a Batman who embodies his fear of letting his mission consume him, making him betray his children.

So, since this Universe is set to disintegrate soon anyway... He can maybe kidnap/rescue his - well, not exactly his, but hey, semantics - kids and take them to his stable universe?

Or Canon!Bruce showing up in a Good Dad Bruce timeline and everyone immediately clocks him as one of the Dark Batmen?

Hi!!!! Glad you found and enjoyed some of the content despite misgivings of the name. I often find myself reminiscing in humor on how much the name doesn't match this blog. I hate Bruce (specifically comics Bruce), but that's a much smaller part of my content. This blog is basically an AU/HC focused one that tends to favor Tim (I'm a bit biased. I love all the batkids, though).

As far as the AU you've proposed, I've seen somewhat similar AUs but not quite the same. A universe that holds more than one version of all the batkids is gonna be intense and full of chaos. I'm all here for it.

I'm also all here for Bruce beating the shit out of his "evil" self. Just let good dad Bruce beat up canon Bruce.

There's a few fics out there where Tim or one of the other batkids travels to another universe where the batfam is not nearly as messed up as they are in canon. Just healthy communication, support, etc. I absolutely love and devour those types of fics.

If y'all want me to do a list of them, let me know.

Okay, having scrolled through these DC Go! previews:

They're clearly not in main continuity which is fine because I can ignore them if I don't like them. They might be divergences from WFA and webtoons RH:O, but not the exact same continuity.

HQIP I will not be reading any more of, but that's fine, because I rarely read Harley Quinn content anyway. I see timelinewise this is once again reset to "Harley just broke up with Joker" which...I feel is overdone as a default setting for her at this point? They've been over for multiple universe reboots at this point. (But as said, I don't follow Harley).

Looks like they're doing a Love Island style spoof with Harley heavily playing the ditz and Ivy as her reality check.

NBN: look. I'm honestly more interested in what the thought process was going into this comic, because part of me feels like this is a wild Devin Grayson + Bruce Jones mashup (with premise from Jones and setting from Grayson) and the rest of me is mildly concerned that the story is trying to premise "Dick finds himself and his interests outside the costume" through the lens of a stream of butt jokes and focusing on Dick's looks, which is often regarded by fans as part of what contributes to devaluing Dick's personality and hobbies outside of the costume.

Though seriously, were the people crying out for more Bruce Jones style content? My extremely unbiased (lol) recent poll points to no.

Honestly, NBN feels like someone's 20 year old canon divergence AU fic spun straight out of Devin Grayson's run. I can even name what scene they're building out from: it's the scene where Dick flips over the kitchen counter in Nightwing #86. Babs tells Dick he's acting immaturely, ignoring an injury and hiding from what long term incapacity could mean.

Which is certainly a choice to use as a premise for a whole new comic run, 20 years later, because the conversation in #86 leading into the coming break up is based on a lot of build up on page, while NBN skips over all of that context by...randomly throwing readers in with Babs going out the door.

(the way Babs is written in NBN also very much screams 'early 2000s breaking up characters for another ship')

I don't think these are going to be my thing. Which is fine; I'm not their planned audience for them.

They're both starting out with some MAJOR tonal differences between premise and story context however (Harley dealing with multiple credible death threats; Dick's relationship state being '3/4 of the way through the Blockbuster arc'), which feels wild to me for something that's supposed to be a super-accessible easy read.
