#robin and Batman

[idunnodudeijustwokeup]

Listen, I love when Robin is the name and costume Dick choose almost purely as a homage to his parents and the circus, but I do think it is incredibly funny (and in character) when in Jeff Lemire’s Batman and Robin he chooses the costume design purely because it would piss Bruce off! 10/10 work and decision making, really sets the standard and expectations for every Robin going forward right here

Robin, bleeding out on the ground: Blood loss? No, I know exactly where it is.

Batman, horrified and panicked:

This was inspired by me today (November 24th at 1:48 pm) with a convo between me and my dad

Sorry it’s only the two, but I think it makes it funnier tbh

Part 13 master-post

THE WAY BRUCE LOOKS SO DONE LMAO dick at his finest though

Robin Tim putting Bruce to sleep with his trusty chloroform and tranquilizer. Except he’ll do it in the streets too. So if Batman goes too far, a random low tier goon gets to see Robin knock Batman out and then slowly drag his body into the batmobile before moving a car seat into the driver’s seat and driving off into the sunrise.

Robin follows all the laws of the road and honestly the goon isn’t sure if they’re more shocked about seeing Batman get taken down by someone that came up to his waist or seeing the Batmobile follow every single traffic law.

like I said before, during Tim’s early days it was Robin and Batman instead of Batman and Robin why? Cuz people saw Tim doing this kinda of thing constantly.

also ofc Tim can drive perfectly I expect nothing less from him

Okay, hear me out, stephanie brown as battinson side kick in the batman 2.

and before you say Im crazy, please listen:

At the start of the batman 2, Bruce fights the latest in a series of riddler copycat that appeared following the events of the first movie. This one calling themselves “cluemaster”. Batman tracks him to his home after receiving an anonymous tip and fights him. He knocks him out and handcuffs him for the cops, but before he can leave he discovers Stephanie in the home. Stephanie thanks Batman and tells him she knew he’d stop her father. Batman quickly realises that it was Stephanie who gave him the tip. Steph explains that her father became mentally unwell after her mothers death and became inspired by riddler. Fearing him she tipped batman off to his location. Batman thanks her and goes to leave but Steph asks him to stay, fearing her father waking up. He reluctantly agrees and they talk until Gordon arrives. Bruce later decides to take her in temporarily until the new orphanage he’s funding is completed. Steph is incredibly intelligent, has met batman and is in close proximity with Bruce. All this eventually leads her to discover that he is batman and she insists on helping him. Of course he says no but that’s not gonna stop her…

After this little ramble about how the story could go, here are my reasons on why I think stephanie would be amazing in battinson universe:

Hope - Steph is a character who deeply values hope—holding on to hope for herself, and also bringing hope to others. More than for any other Robin, Stephanie grew up idolizing Batman as a symbol of hope and resistance, not fear and vengeance.

 Connection to the lower class and crime-vulnerable population of Gotham- Rather than allowing a child into the crimefighting world, Batman meets a kid who already lives there. Rather than just swooping in from above to save the masses down below, Batman empowers someone to save her own people.

Giving Steph the spotlight - Lately, DC has been cashing in on Stephanie representing a Girl Wonder (Robin 80th Anniversary Spectacular, Robins, Wayne Family Adventures, etc) among a herd of weirdly identical teen boys. While it's nice to see Steph getting recognized, her actual 10-week stint as Robin was basically a mean-spirited stunt instead of a proper run. It'd be nice for Steph to legitimately get a major spotlight as Robin.

If you got to this point, Thanks for reading!!

Robin & Batman #3 (2022)

Robin!Jason Todd.

He's so cute, I really wanted to draw him as a Robin. It's the first time that I draw a Robin, but I'll make more, they're so small and cute!!

[batfam-stuff-posts-0]

Robin!Dick: C'mon, KF, no one thinks Batman's my dad!

Kid Flash, turning to Young Justice and the Justice League: Put your hands up if you thought Batman was Robin's dad.

*everyone puts hand up*

Robin:

Robin: Batman, why is your hand up

absolutely loved "robin and batman"!!! my only nitpick is bruce's characterization like a teeeny bit

specifically this quote being very out of character and just. bad

aaand him viewing dick as a soldier, rather than a kid

i have mentioned how im ok with bruce being a flawed father figure for grayson during their first years but i dont think these two details characterize bruce in a way that fits his overall character best?...hear me out, batman 2004 definitely has a better origin story for bruce picking up dick and in the batman animated series bruce basically expresses that he will try his best to give dick what he himself was robbed of–peace

bruce taking away grayson's childhood feels...unlike him in a way and contradictory to his motive of helping the kid deal with the same trauma. but maybe i haven't analyzed thoroughly enough..perhaps this bruce viewed dick becoming a hero/his sidekick as him becoming a soldier and thought that thats why he needed to treat him accordingly but didnt want to do that so maaybe THATS why he wanted dick to give up the costume in the start of the comic? in this case, it would mean that this bruce didnt want to try and take away dick's childhood but felt like he had to ? i dunno

i would like to end this by saying that these are just nitpicks and that everything else here, especially grayson's character, is done SPECTACULARLY<3 the writer really cooked with this one🗣️ dick's whole character and everything abt him is ON POINT !

A performer must never fear fear, he must learn to befriend it. Fear is your friend, and you must dance with it on deaths tightrope.

Dick is five when he first sees it. When his father deems him old enough to let go off the harness he was taught to hold on too. He’s twenty feet above the soft ground he so loved, and the wind tucks his strands behind his ear.

And he feels it. The hammering heartbeat, the shivers running down his spine and shaking legs that threaten to collapse : the signs that fear is knocking on his door before letting itself in.

But it’s not a monster. No, it was a boy, no older than him. Fear was the shadow of a child that tilted its head in recognition. That young Dick Grayson was now a new friend. And he feels his hands go cold when it grips his hand, but instead of pushing him back it beckons him forward.

And he dances with fear, laughs as spikes of anxiety erupt when one foot threatens to slip off the edge. Fear was beckoning him forward, gently pushing him from behind and tossing and turning, never allowing him to focus on anything else. And Dick loved it.

When he grew older, so did fear. And when Dick was eight, with only the shadows of his parents remaining, fear was gone.

Fear only came if you gave it something to play with, Dick had learned. Fear loved playing with friends, and only came if you had something to offer. Something to lose. But there, as the life bled out of his parents, so did fear from him. He had nothing to offer it, he no longer had a heart to give, no more happiness it could take. So that left behind anger.

But then he met the darkness. While anger screamed at him for murder, for retribution the darkness asked for mercy, for redemption. The batman took off the cape, told him it was okay to just be human. He could be safe. He could be loved. And it lent him a hand. Would he take it?

That’s when he finally felt fear slowly returning home, knocking at his heart before poking its head in. It has grown up too, but one look at each other and suddenly Dick was a child again, staring at it for the first time. Yet instead of being afraid to die, he found himself being afraid to live.

Fear told him he was already afraid. So why not already do it?

Tim occasionally raising his voice at Bruce when he’s going too hard on a goon and telling him to stop in the same tone of voice that I tell my dog to drop whatever he has in his mouth

just like “Hey! No! Bad Batman! Put him down, you don’t know where he’s been! If you don’t stop you’re not gonna get a treat!” while spraying water at him

YES YES 1000 TIMES YES!

I also think that, like with the goons, Tim starts talking that way when B’s being stubborn, distant and a little bit rude about saying something like-

“Hey! No! We don’t talk like that! Apologize! Yes I know it wasn’t entirely your fault but you still got to say it! Repeat after me. ‘I’m sorry’. No not ‘it’s was for the case’. It’s ‘Sorry’! Do you want to patrol with nightwing tonight or no?!”
