Jason thing.

He was my Guinea Pig for some new brushes and rendering techniques. He is holding the bullet he is going to kill you with. /aff

Ko-Fi.

Clark giving the biggest sigh of relief when Lois chose Metropolis not just because that means she’s staying but because he just spent time researching a city that has a designated “Crime Alley” and a man who runs around in a bat costume beating the shit out of criminals

Dick: Oh, what a nice kitchen.

Barbara: The cabinets are terrible.

Dick: Uh, people spend a fortune to get this effect on their cabinets.

Barbara: And what exactly would you call this "effect?"

Dick: ...Distressed.

Dick: Deeply distressed.

TIM DRAKE READING ORDER

For those who, like me, when they like a character they need to read every single comic the character appears in, I have compiled a list of all of Tim Drake’s appearances from his debut up to the 2011 Flashpoint reboot (not including New 52 continuity).

If you enjoy my reading guides or find them helpful and would like to support me, you can do so on my Ko-Fi.

JL sets up a betting pool to see who can get Superman to say "fuck" first. Everybody gets so intense about this, but no matter what they do, they cannot get him to say anything worse than hell. Bruce is so tired of this, so at a meeting one day he just takes off his cowl and reveals his identity with zero build up or warning and Superman just lets out the loudest "What the fuck?"

Saw a post where someone wasn't sure if Tim being good at computers was a fanon thing or not and friend I am happy to inform you that he's been a computer/tech guy from some of his earliest appearances in the comics.

Detective Comics (Vol. 1) #620 (Rite of Passage part 4) - immersed in the ~web~

Robin II: The Joker's Wild #3 - tabletop roleplaying games and spending hours in the basement on the computer - not beating the geek allegations on these fronts, Timmy

Detective Comics (Vol. 1) #676 - Dick was more into traditional detective work and tended to outsource the computer stuff in these days

Batman (Vol. 1) #514 (Prodigal part 10) - hackin' through all the garbage and garble

Robin (1993) #33 - Robin sneaking in and connecting Oracle with the baddies' mainframe so she can do her thing and steal all their data >:)

Nightwing (1996) #6 - "no you're really talented and well suited to be Robin." "no, you." "no, YOU!"

Tim is definitely not as good as Babs/Oracle, but he's certainly her back-up for computer work in the 90's batfam. They're tech buddies and Robin!Tim is her little assistant sometimes, it's super cute:

Birds of Prey (1999) #19 - happy to play with big sister's fancy high-powered toys

Legends of the Dark Knight (1989) #125 - real cute kid

And Dick will hand off computer jobs to his little brother when he doesn't want to bother Babs 😂 (that outsourcing I mentioned):

Nightwing (1996) #68 - examine them pixel by pixel, eh? welp, sounds like a job only you can do, Timbo, you got this buddy, byyyyeeeee

And then when he'd grown up and been doing this for years, he leveled up accordingly, and did stuff like use his access to the League of Assassins computers to overload the generators in every base he could find, etc. etc.

Red Robin (2009) #8 - yeah that was pretty dumb of you Ra's :)

So yeah, it was a bit of a specialty of Tim's, in large part because he was introduced just at the turn into the 90's, when personal computers were really starting to take off and become widespread. (Robins gotta be cutting edge and all)

Of course, by no means does it follow that the other Bats suck at computers (there is no 'smart one' they are all incredibly smart and capable). This is especially true as reboots and the sliding timescale of comics have moved the DC characters into modern times, where computers run the world and everyone grows up with one in their pocket. The baseline familiarity and expertise that everyone can be expected to have is just much, much higher these days.

It gets exaggerated in fanon as all character traits do, but computer guy Tim is definitely not something just made up out of whole cloth :)b

if you want people to get into the canon comics and lead everyone away from fanon misinterpretation (which is a losing battle because there will ALWAYS be this) then why not be helpful instead of being a dick about it 🤨

the comics are hard to get into because it's hard to know where to start, and there's so much content that people are able to fill themselves in by reading fanfic or watching something on tiktok or seeing posts about it on here. perhaps instead of telling people they're stupid for not realizing your favorite character is being mishandled by others, you could write up a list of your favorite comics and/or how, if you could read them for the first time again, you would order your favorite comics to get the best reading experience. and also write your own fanfiction and draw your own fanart or make a passionate post, answer questions politely

My toxic trait is that my favoritism for Dick Grayson has no bounds.

Robin!Jason, Dying: Honestly, this isn't even the most traumatic thing that has happened to me.

The Joker: Excuse me? this is so traumatic. I'm about to blow you up.

Robin!Jason: I was homeless at 9, a pasty man with a crowbar isn't really that scary compared to the streets of crime alley

I have an absolutely desperate need for Danny to visit Wally at his house and meet his neighbor: Buddy Baker aka Animal Man and for the two to become friends and to compare stories of going to different dimensions. One may be True Body Horror You're Made Of Meat/The Red dimension and the other is Everything Is Green and Purple Everything Is Dead And Direction And Time Has no Meaning/Infinite Realms dimension but somehow they can relate to the other's experience. Danny now comes over regularly for barbecues and to babysit Buddy's kids.

Some rough self-indulgent Dad Harv skteches.

Image description: Various fanart sketches of Harvey Dent/Two-Face from DC. The first sketch shows Harvey standing with a cigarette in his mouth, looking irritated and tired, holding numerous shopping bags. There's a shopping list displaying what four of the Bat kids want. Dick wants Batman-themed mugs, a baseball bat and dog food. Jason wants ammo, cigarettes, a hoody and protein powder. Tim wants coffee, printer ink and a 1TB memory pen. Damian wants knives and vegetarian meals. There is red writing around the list showing Two-Face's interference. The second sketch shows Harvey reading Crime and Punishment to a young Damian. Damian looks bewildered. The last sketch shows Harvey fixing an irritated Jason's tie, with dialogue saying: "going on a date with your tie like that? Not on our fucking watch." End of image description.
