Over 350 behind the scenes photos from the sets of Detroit Reawakening and Detroit Evolution are now available for public viewing over on our site, Octopunx. I didn't even lock these behind a free account - they're just public. But if you do join the site, you'll get to stay updated on the stuff I'm constantly adding to it, and I've got plenty more behind the scenes and archival stuff to go!

I can't enable downloadables on the gallery but screencapping is fine if you want to save any of them.

Enjoy the memories~

Detroit: Evolution Blu-Ray Edition coming in clutch.

Screenshot from the end of Reawakening. If this ain't Law and Order: Detroit, we don't know what is.

Our discord server frequently has double-feature viewing parties of Detroit: Evolution and Reawakening (Bring Your Own Popcorn, of course), and with @octopunkmedia's release of the Blu-Ray edition on their website https://octopunx.tv, we decided to rewatch our favorite gay bois on the big screen.

To those DBH fans who have somehow NOT seen these wonderful works of cinema, DO IT. DO IT NOW!! Many people in the fandom have expressed how greatly the Chris and Tina in their fan-works has been influenced by the performances of Michael Smallwood and Carla Kim, respectively. And of course Christopher Trindade as Gavin and Maximilian Koger as Nines is a superb example of onscreen chemistry and witty Reed900 banter. (And gayness. Don't forget the gayness.) Jillian Geurts as Ada is a classy femme-fatale, and JJ Schaeffer's Lazzo kills us every single time in that neon boa: "Like robot arms, not gun arms." The entire cast and crew of Detroit: Evolution and Detroit: Reawakening created this labor of love; made by fans, for fans.

Gif by @kotovsyndrome. One of our favorite scenes from D:E.

To those of you who have seen D:E before, the Blu-Ray edition is worth an immediate watch. From the audible hits and whirring servos in the reworked fight scene to the fabulous new music track in the ending credits (THAT FIRST BASS DROP, WHAT), our enjoyment of our favorite lines and scenes was only enhanced by the updates. We still watched the NOIR version of the fight scene as a part of our regular experience (it's SOOOO on point); if you haven't seen the NOIR version we suggest you check that out, too. To conclude. Detroit: Evolution and Detroit: Reawakening are STILL a must-see for any DBH fan, yes "even" in 2025. This fandom ain't dead; it's thriving.

Nines: *pointing to a broken coffee machine* Who broke it? I'm not mad, I just want to know.

Tina: I did. I broke-

Nines: No, no you didn't. Hank?

Hank: Don't look at me. Look at Connor.

Connor: What? I didn't break it.

Hank: Huh. That's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?

Connor: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken.

Hank: *leans in* Suspicious.

Chris: If it matters - probably not - but Captain Fowler was the last one to use it.

Fowler: Liar! I don't even drink that crap!

Chris: Oh, really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?

Fowler: I use the wooden stirrers to push back my cuticles; everyone knows that, Miller!

Tina: Ok, ok! Let's not fight! I broke it, let me pay for it, Nines!

Nines: No! Who broke it??!

Connor: Nines... Gavin's been awfully quiet.

Gavin: REALLY???

Connor: Yeah! Really.

Gavin: Oh my God!

Nines: I broke it. It burned Gavin's hand so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now they'll be at each other's throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick... Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.

"The wall is gone."

I've wanted to recreate this scene from Detroit: Evolution (credit to Octopunk Media) ever since I watched it again a month or so ago. I'm so glad to have finally gotten to it now.

I made two variations of this artwork and couldn't decide which I liked best. So, I figured I'd just post both...

I spent waaay too long on this
