The Second Blood Son - the affair of Mrs. Drake

It is no secret that Gotham’s resident celebrity billionaire, Bruce Wayne (see related articles), has a habit of collecting children like how most other celebrities collect cars, and it is also no secret that Mr. Wayne is a rather promiscuous individual, or at least was in his younger years.

Mr. Wayne has been suspected of being in many relationships with members of Gotham, Star City, Metropolis, one-percent, as well as prominent social figures such as Clark Kent (see related articles), Lois Lane (see related articles), and Lucifer Morningstar (see related articles), and even the occasional vigilante (see related posts).

Despite all this he is only reported to have one biological child. His youngest son, Damian Wayne-Al-Ghul (see related articles), who he gained custody of only a few years back after a seemingly non-existent legal battle with the boy’s mother, Talia Al-Ghul (see related articles).

Mr. Wayne-Al-Ghul seems to be proud of this fact, often joking with his siblings about being the only ‘blood son’ of Mr. Wayne, and therefore the actual heir to Wayne Enterprises instead of his brother, Timothy ‘Tim’ Drake-Wayne (see related articles).

This, of course, is all in good fun, but what if we told you that the youngest Wayne child was, in fact, wrong? That Damian Wayne-Al-Ghul isn’t the sole blood-child of our resident billionaire-himbo?

Earlier today we received an anonymous tip on the subject. The commenter claimed to have been house staff of the Drake family (see related articles) prior to the untimely accident that left Mr. Drake-Wayne an orphan. They claimed that many a time Mr. Drake would make passive-agressive comments towards his wife and son regarding the boy’s parentage.

According to the commenter, Mr. and Ms. Drake were rarely intimate and the pair had a long streak of infidelity (see related articles), Ms. Drake’s alleged cheating starting just shy of a year prior to the birth of their son.

The commenter also includes audio recordings of an argument overheard while they worked at the Drake’s home over both Mr. Drake’s alleged involvement with other women and his refusal to admit to his alleged infertility.

If these claims are to be believed it is almost certain Tim Drake-Wayne is a bastard child, the only question is to whom? There has been prior speculation over Mr. Drake-Wayne’s parentage given that his parents detest for one another was not particularly discreet (see related articles) as well as the fact that he bears a striking resemblance to his adoptive father, Bruce Wayne.

We at Gotham Reports are readily inclined to believe this theory, given the aforementioned similarities, and the fact that Mr. Wayne took in Mr. Drake-Wayne almost immediately after the tragedy. This leads to some rather interesting discussion about whether or not Mr. Drake-Wayne and Mr. Wayne are aware of their alleged blood relation, as well as if it would change anything in the dynamic of the Wayne children (see related articles).

Of course this is all alleged, and given that there has been no move to have Mr. Drake’s genetic parentage tested we may never have a complete answer. Regardless, we believe it is worth noting in any further discussions on the dynamics of the extended Wayne family.

do you have more info. on Fifi La mue and the Mardi gras cats? I think they are really cool :)

here are some images I have of them:

Sure! Here's some information that friend of the blog @amazing-animatronics dug up about them:

"I found this mention in NY Daily News which says there were 7 cats and gives us their names:

1 million for seven computer-driven audio animatronic cats that sing, talk and “play” instruments. Fifi La Mue & the Mardi Gras Cats made their debut on Friday in the Bourbon Street Corridor and immediately became a fave attraction with visitors. The robots stand 3 feet tall in glittering costumes, and each has its very own stage. Besides Fifi, there’s Paws McCalico, Scratchpost Mulligan, Catfish Goodman, Fats Wailer, Landon LaFitte and Pee Wee.

This article from 2002 (when they were removed) also talks about them:

Those were actually state-of-the-art animatronics when they were first installed,“ explains Showboat spokesman Susan Tulino as we walked by the shuttered hovels of the unemployed cats. “But some of them were not in very good repair, and we decided they had run their course.”"

And here's the showtape for this show (audio only):

Here's what friend of the blog Kevin "Pasq Notrook" wrote for the description of this video: "Fifi La Mue & the Mardi Gras Cats is a show created by Landmark Entertainment Group for Showboat Atlantic City casino and hotel, it was located at the entrance. The soundtrack was produced by Ted King, voice of Paws McCalico. The voice of Fifi La Mue was provided by Diane Michelle. The characters have since been removed from Showboat Atlantic City and sold to animatronic builder Eric Princz."

Sorry for a copy-paste response, since you've likely already seen these posts, but this is pretty much all that's known about this show at the time. Hope that helps!

Cyno tormenting Wanderer with his terrible jokes in the new event is especially really great to me when you pair it with the fact the other sumeru character shown to torment Wanderer w/ their silly antics onscreen is coincidentally also one of the Only Ones who thinks Cyno’s jokes are funny

It’s just so good. I believe in the Nahida Cyno friendship agenda and Cyno coming to think really highly of Nahida as an Archon and be the one to throw down with Azar on her behalf in the AQ is really cute, especially when he might not even know she thinks he’s hilarious as much as she respects his sense of duty. (I hope he knows bc that would make his entire year). I bet Nahida has mentioned she likes Cyno at least once in passing to Wanderer and initially he’s like “yeah sure this is a guy. We both work with the Dendro archon I guess” but after he gets subjected to the terror of Cyno’s dorky humor hes is probably like oh SURE. of COURSE you would like him. I cannot believe this .

Is the Justice League using unpaid child labour?

Though it is not confirmed the exact ages of most heroes and their various sidekicks, it is safe to say that many of them are well below the age of 18, this raises the question of just how good the Justice League really is.

The names Batman and Robin have been closely linked since the creation of the later, the big Bat and his bird-themed sidekick are a staple of both Gotham City and vigilante culture as a whole, but what is the reason for the mantle of Robin being essentially exclusive to children? Though the ethics of all this doesn’t seem to be much of a concern to the various costumes characters of Gotham, one would imagine the Justice League would protest the use of child labour in any form of heroism.

This, however, is not the case. As user Pilztaube ( @emotional-piece-of-meat ) noted in (this post), the League quite accepting such practices. This brings to question the ethics of earth’s mightiest heroes as they seem to be a bit too comfortable with a child being in harms way if it is for the ‘greater good’.

This doesn’t just apply to the Robin’s, as many of the members of the League have had a child sidekick and one point or another, though none have been as young as Robin (the youngest known age of a Robin being 8).

There have even been rumours that more than one member of the team are underage themselves, the most notable being Captain Marvel (see related articles), otherwise known as Shazam. There have been multiple eyewitness accounts of Captain Marvel disappearing, only for a young boy to appear in his stead. Though it has never been confirmed many believe the young boy and Captain Marvel to be one in the same.

Hypocrisy is what many in the villain community are calling it, stating that the JL has been going after them for years under the guise of stopping the usage of child labour when all the while these ‘heroes’ have been doing the exact same thing, and we can’t help but agree.

We would like to make it clear that this journal supports the eradication of child labour, and condemns the league’s usage of such, and find it appalling that they are often times putting children in much worse working conditions than the villains are (see further articles).

We have reached out to multiple members of the Justice League as well multiple villain organizations for further information but none have responded.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on the topic (here)
