Sometimes I feel like a lot of people focus so much on the most dramatically angsty points of Dick and Bruce's relationship that they forget that these guys actually get along and genuinely like each other most of the time.

Like!! It's the fact that they HAVE gotten along like a house on fire for so LONG that makes the angst so incredibly intense when it happens. Dick hasn't spent the majority of his life secretly hating Bruce or whatever.

#even at their worst they're always back on decent terms by the end of the story #i'd say concerningly quickly sometimes but these are superhero comics #expecting *too* much emotional depth from your superhero comics is setting yourself up for disappointment #also something something bruce's coldification #that's a whole other issue #but even coldified he's still not as cold as some fans seem to think he is #once again none of this is to say that he's always great or anything #just that the lack of nuance (in either the good or bad direction) leaves me going blegh #vintagerobin.txt
