#bc its not the guy from robin 93

[misspickman]

so are we past insisting that megfitz read robin 93. bc listen ive read td:r and the only sign that she might have cracked it is that bernard is there and its not hard to find out about bernard without you know actually reading the comics

People who have supposedly read red robin 2009 but still insist that tim is like one day away from becoming a murderer and that actually hes not bothered by people he might have killed, please explain

I know tim is the easy one for the comic characters ask meme but I’ll do it anyway <3 (and if someone else already sent tim then uhhhh lonnie please)

A comic you'd recommend to get to know this character: robin 93, i know a lot of people dont like it bc dixons and willinghams writing is uhh sure the way it is but i do genuinely think its a p good show of who tim is and how he changes over time. its definitely not perfect and there are parts you could easily skip but i found it really fun. also young justice ofc<3 comic of all time

A comic you would NEVER recommend reading for this character: i havent liked him in rebirth so i guess. most of that. i found him very bland and just. not tim in yj 19. i dont enjoy his current solo either

A comic you would recommend reading only with the footnotes (aka after reading a bunch of other stuff): red robin! i love it dearly but its definitely not the best Only basis for tims character. esp the second part. also convergence batgirl is soo dear to me for how it shows tim and steph but you kind of need the context for it to be fun i think

A retcon that you wish would be reversed: n52 and rebirth. my beloathed. sorry

A retcon that fixed a LOT of shit: i guess rebirth fixed things as in its not n52 anymore. but im still not happy about it. but it could be worse??

A headcanon extrapolated from all of your extensive reading because no one knows this character like you do: im not gonna start telling you about my trans tim takes bc you know them already. but all of that

A pitch for their next solo (or team) book: we need to kill him just make him stop being robin please im begging. that aside id like to see him in a team book again i miss tim being the teamup guy, and imo hes a lot more interesting as a support character than when hes the main guy of the book (mostly bc authors cant help but try to make him the 'smartest and most competent person in the room' which just gets annoying tbh). also let him team up with helena and cass again

9 12 & 16 for the violence ask game !!

9. worst part of canon

what geoff did to kon,, leave my guy alone. and all he did to yj crew in tt03 tbh but esp to kon and cassie

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

aura from superboy and the ravers,, shes just a great character thank you women. listen i am weak to the initially rude but deeply caring characters and she is simply sick as hell. also danny temple from robin 93 bring my guy back they dropped all that weird backstory and did nothing with him afterwards.. he and tim had such a fun dynamic he was actually interesting and he figured out tims identity (not that it was hard) which could have been soo fun to play around with

edit: i didnt put lonnie here at first bc i wasnt sure how unpopular he is but i think its safe to say hes pretty damn underappreciated (esp since even when his character Is in other dc media its..... not good) so yes lonnie machin too. bc he is my anarchist bestie with so many issues and i love him dearly. there is genuinely so little of lonnie comics to read u can do it in like three days

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

answered here! i could probably think of more but i am going to be chill
