The living room looks out over a small reflecting pool to dunes and the ocean. Barbara Barry based her colors on the setting and the architecture. Sofas and chair backs are covered in white cotton.

In case it seems like every third comic has Batman in it... you're not wrong. He's been in 38.6% of DC issues since 2020, with a stark increase of 8% each decade since the 90s and surpassing Superman in popularity. Despite this, there's been a massive drop off of comics where he is teamed up with Superman or a Robin (although the amount of group team ups between Batman Family members has increased, as well as Nightwing solos).

I like to think whenever someone tweets at captain marvel anything extreme or inappropriate, it's quickly dealt with before cap can see it, and billy is just left wondering what happened (just rambling a bit cause i like to see marvel/billy as well as his family/team being protected by others, even if they may/may not know marvel/billy is a kid)

Protection (PM4)

(Please ignore that I got the dates kinda wonky this time. whoops!)

I think this is the end of the Pig Migration storyline! Mostly cuz I’m forcing myself to stop unless people are still interested in it lol.

DC Super-Heroes by Tony Dela Cruz.

[armed-with-a-waffle-iron]

Sports Team Logos for DC Comics Cities

Used Photopea and took some liberties with the names.

Fictional Etymology

The Knights⚾️: The Knights initially attributed their name to Gotham's history as an English colony though the double entendre was not lost on them, especially since the infamous "Gotham Nights" have become synonymous with the crime capital.

The Meteors🏈⚾️: Alliteration 🤷‍♀️.

The Spartans🏐: Gateway City possesses the largest collection of Greek artefacts outside of Greece and have a reputation for producing gold-medal-winning Olympians, inspiring the name of Gateway's Pro Volleyball team; the "Spartans".

The Sab-Cats⚽️: The Sab-Cats are a NWSL team born out of a social initiative by community centres in Star City using sport to keep youths away from crime. Recently turned professional, the team honours its mutual aid roots by adopting the Anarchist symbol of the "Sab-Cat".

The Velocity🏈: Keystone City has long been a hub of transport manufacturing, from automobiles to aircraft. The Velocity began as an amateur factory workers' football team in the 1940s, with its name referring to the cars these workers assembled.

The Cheetahs🏈: Initially named the "Central City Cougars", after the wildcat historically present in Missouri, the NFL team more recently renamed itself after the speedy African Cheetah in honour of its then residential speedster, the second Flash, following the first Crisis.

The Cosmos🏀: Before its destruction, Coast City was known along the West Coast as a melting pot of diversity, and its former NBA team derived its name, "Cosmos", from the word "Cosmopolitans".

The Bloodhounds⚾️: Before harmful radiation, Blüdhaven was plagued with corruption, often enabled by its police force. Some suspect strings were pulled for this former MLB team to adopt a blue kit and a common police dog as a mascot. Maybe it's a coincidence?

I want more fics of the JL meeting the Batfam via prank war.

The whole family—Even Barbara on a wheelchair— sneak into the watchtower and start causing chaos and annoying the justice league.

Barry: Ok, who THE FUCK glued all the spoons of the watchtower in my bed?????

Harper and Cullen , in the vents, with 2 spoons and bat-superglue:

Hal: I SWEAR TO GOD, I WAS WALKING DOWN THE HALL AND I SAW TWO KIDS HOLDING HANDS AND CHANTING, GUYS. IM NOT CRAZY. I REALLY SAW IT.

Jl: mmm, sure Hal.

There was, in fact, two kids holding hands and chanting. The kids were Maps and Damian.

Oliver: WHO STOLE MY ARROWS AND REPLACED THEM WITH PURPLE ONES????

Helena and Steph with two cans of Purple bat-paint and a lot of new (and beautiful) arrows for Huntress: 🫸🫷

The prank to J’onn was putting him in front of nightwing for two seconds and letting him read his mind. He was screaming and crying in one.

Day 2 Started with Open Arms from Epic the musical blasting on loop on the speakers and NOBODY. Could. Turn. It. Off. (Thanks to Barbara)

Clark who has been having a conversation with the silent moving shadow in the corner thinking it was Bruce: And then Kon said-

Bruce: Who are you talking with?

Clark looking back and forth between the corner and the real Bruce.

Duke in the shadows: *Giggles and escapes*

Diana: why are all the chairs upside down?

Hal: I SWEAR TO GOD DIANA IT WAS THE GHOSTS!

Diana: sure, Hal, sure.

It was Cass

Arthur: Who replaced all the food in the fridge with Grape Zesti?

Dinah: CAN SOMEONE TURN OFF THAT PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AUDIOBOOK????

VINTAGE DC COMICS VALENTINE'S DAY CARDS (1980)

[thisiswhereikeepdcthings]

There's no "I" in Team but there are two in Migraine

Bruce had no issue with teamwork, despite what his children and colleagues might think. Teamwork was great. If done properly it was efficient, and it was good to have backup. Competent backup, at least. 

Bruce helped found the Justice League. Obviously he was a supporter of teamwork. 

However. 

Some teams he really could have happily lived out his life without them ever existing. 

He had a list. 

One: Dick and Clark Kent

Clark had been the first hero he had introduced Dick to. It was a move he had regretted ever since. 

He was glad the two of them got along, of course, but did they have to get along so well? 

He could withstand torture but the two sets of sad puppy eyes attacking at the same time was on another level altogether. 

Two: The Titans

Pros: Dick was making friends. 

Cons: Dick was either away with his friends, or they came home with him. Really, all Bruce wanted was to spend one week without putting out any fires caused by teenage superheroes. Literal fires, not metaphorical ones. Well, actually there were plenty of those kind too. 

Three: Dick and Jason

When Bruce first brought Jason home he wasn’t sure how Dick was going to react. And so maybe he panicked slightly and didn’t end up telling him for three weeks. In his defense, the voicemail he had left asking Dick to call him soon was left before the newspaper article came out. 

Perhaps not his best moment. 

Eventually, though, the two boys were introduced. 

There was some yelling that took place, mostly directed at him, but other than that things seemed to go rather smoothly. Assuming, that is, that smoothly meant neither of them seemed to care about getting to know the other one, and mostly kept to themselves and their own activities. 

And then, four months, two weeks, and five days after Jason first came to the manor, Bruce came home to discover the two of them had bonded over some unspoken activity that neither were willing to divulge. Alfred knew and didn’t disapprove so it couldn’t be that bad, but from then on out it was…well…

Bruce began the daily habit of checking his blood pressure. 

Four: Talia al Ghul and Lois Lane

Bruce didn’t know how the two of them had met and he didn’t want to. See, Dick, he was okay with not knowing things. Sometimes. In this one instance, at least. 

Five: Dick and Slade Wilson

Worst three weeks of his life. 

Six: Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn

He was happy for them, he really was. He just wished they could be happy together somewhere less structurally damaging. 

Seven: Jason and Harley Quinn

Explosion therapy was not a thing, despite both their arguments otherwise. They didn’t even give him a Joker effigy to blow up. They could have at least asked. He would have happily paid for that one and all the rest of them. 

Eight: Tim and Barbara

 He wasn’t that old. He knew how to use his computer. 

Nine: Jason and Cassandra

Too competent. They should never have been allowed on the same team for any game ever. If he heard one more complaint from any of his other children he was going to seriously lose it. 

And then there was that one time the two of them disappeared for a week and no one, not even himself or Clark, could find them. They had turned back up with grins and minimal injuries, and Bruce had tried to not investigate, he really had. But he needed to know, regardless of how much he regretted it later. (A lot. He regretted it a lot.) 

Ten: Dick, Jason, and Constantine

Bruce hated magic. 

Eleven: Jason, Diana, and Barry Allen

No one knew how or why the three of them had teamed up. It had been four months of secret meetings and pointed looks and minor heists that couldn’t technically be traced back to them but Bruce knew. And then there was the regular day-to-day hero-ing. Diana, he could understand. That’s what she did. Jason? Had always been vocally opposed to getting too involved with the Justice League, but had also always looked up to Diana, so maybe that was understandable? Allen? The man was retired. And he wasn’t suddenly out of retirement for some reason, no. He was just there to “lend a hand” to the other two. 

At least Bruce could comfort himself in knowing Jason was spending time with two respectable individuals. It was certainly a step up from his unfortunately ongoing acquaintance with Rayner. 

Twelve: Stephanie and Hal Jordan 

They should never have been allowed to meet. It was a disaster. For Bruce. 

Jason had been the one to introduce them, as he had proudly let Bruce know after the first breaking news cycle hit.

Thirteen: Duke and Damian 

Bruce would have told Jason how thankful he was that he was acting as the moderating adult influence with those two if he didn’t think Jason would start doing the opposite out of spite. 

Jason would make a great parent someday. 

Bruce would love a six month vacation. 

Fourteen: Alfred and Martha Kent

He didn’t really need to explain this one, right? Everyone could just move on, continue with their lives and so on and so forth. 

Fifteen: Damian and Batcow

Because a boy needs a cow and a cow needs an emotional support duck, turkey, cat, dog, rabbit, goat, and raccoon. Apparently. Tim and Jason were, in Bruce’s opinion, far too enthusiastic to provide research as evidence whenever needed (or not needed, as was usually the case). 

[wyvernsgale]

Another fic idea, a Timcentric one

Bruce was aware his neighbors the Drakes had a child, however he never paid any attention to them. That is until a local Gotham newspaper raises questions, asking the drakes why their son hadn’t been seen in public in four and a half years, why when school records were looked at, they showed he hadn’t attended in four years, the public raises questions ‘ where is Timothy Drake’, his parents deny deny deny, Batman and his birds realize something is wrong, Bruce realizes he should have paid more attention.

Tim has long since given up on the idea of rescue, ever since his parents sold him off to the highest bidder when he was ten.

Please let me know if anyone ends up using this prompt. I low key need someone to write based off this :):)

Dick, texting Wally: hey, patrol kinda boring tonight, do you want to play 20 questions?

Wally: yeah sure man, what's your favorite family meal?

Dick: do you like boys?

Wally: yeah.... I... Came out to you first...

Dick: just checking. You free on Friday?

Wally: yeah?

Dick: good, I'll pick you up at 12. Bye.

Wally: ... Okay but our game? Hello??

Outside of the texts

Dick: I asked him out.

Barbara: saw, you technically didn't but better than you pinning for him all day. Good luck.

Dick: don't need it, I'm Dick Grayson, I got this.

Bruce: oh no, you don't, I said the same thing, you're gonna fail bud.

Allen-west house hold

Wally: MOMMA HOW DO I KNOW HE ASKED ME OUT OR NOT!?

Iris: HE'S TAKING YOU OUT ON A DATE BUT SHY A OUT IT! DRESS CASUAL.

Wally: THANKS MOMMA!

Barry: WHY NOBODY YELLING FOR ME FOR DATING ADVICE!

Wally: BECAUSE MOMMA FLIRTERD WITH YOU THE WHOLE TIME AND YOU WERE STUCK IN YOUR OWN HEAD, I NEED HELP NOT MORE PROBLEMS AND QUESTIONS!

Barry:

Wally: BECAUSE I'M EMBARRASSED!

They are half the reason this fic is functional for the giangantuan plot and I owe them several pairs of kidneys (accepting kidney donations to help pay my debt-)

[whywouldisayprinter]

Incorrect batfam/ DC quotes but it's all stuff my friends & I said

Dick: I don't care! I will simply backflipp out of the conversation.

Jason: some people have trauma, other people have blunt force trauma. We're not the same!

Babara: you wouldn't steal the croissant of a person sitting in a wheelchair!

Steph: [Watching a musical] are they singing again?????

Tim: I have so much caffeine in my body, it would probably kill a small mammal.

Barry: In the name of the Lord! Spread your legs for science!

Roy: Which sick bastard came up with these Google maps routes???

Damian: You write you "G"s in the same way as my grandfather

Jon: omg maybe I am the reincarnation of your grandfather!!!

Damian:.....My grandfather isn't dead yet...

Jason: In the name of the Lord will I put this record on! [ABBA starts playing]

Batman #146 - "Dark Prisons II" (2024)

[fawcetttweets]

Related to that last tweet of Billy sad about the Pigs flying in the wrong account, what about a reaction from some of the heroes of the JL, some that agree with him and some that don't? I know for a fact that there are some comic runs that aren't just Batman (and batfam) and Captain Marvel that deal with corrupt cops overruning the precint.

I don’t know very much about most hero’s other than Billy Batson or the batfam 😭. I looked it up but couldn’t find much about characters who are involved with police other than a few who I’ve never heard of but I do know that nightwing and the flash were/are part of the police system!

ACAP (PM2)

Whoops… this ended up being a lot more Batfam than I meant it to be lol. At this point I may as well be a batfam blog (not really… but kinda).
