And just like I know that my brother has never been able to operate on my level.
(X-Men Volume 7 #3)
I’m trying to get better at coloring so here is a doodle
i keep thinking about how we're just watching the exact plan israel has outlined proceed unimpeded by anything at all and how it has rebranded 'ethnic cleansing' into 'humanitarian corridor' even though there are still hundreds of thousands of disabled, homeless, elderly, brave, courageous gazans still in the north and east of gaza where the israeli military is now pointing snipers at convoys of people exiting a hospital waving white flags and even people inside an icu
i think recognizing it as a genocide made people accept that everyone in gaza is already dead and that terrifies me more than anything else. from day 1 it has been clear that israel (which has loudly proclaimed genocidal intent), zionists (who have loudly declared genocidal intent) and the united states (which is loudly suppressing everyone who calls it a genocide) have accepted this as a price
eleven thousand people have died but there are people in gaza still alive. there are millions in gaza still alive. we are in the midst of a genocide. its not a foregone conclusion that it ends in ethnic cleansing or mass death, it is a choice people are making every single minute and every single second, and we have to remind them of it every single minute and every single second that passes
Until recently I had only read the X books from the 70’s to 90’s and the more recent Krakoa books so I was a little bit averse to the idea of Scott and Emma being together in any capacity until I’d caught up with Morrison’s New X-Men and Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men AND I GOTTA SAY
YALL for a relationship that started out on so many red flags they became a really sweet couple that feels like they both really understand eachother and love eachother so I had to make fanart
So anyways heres my Scott x Emma fanart
(I changed Cyclop’s suit into something I liked more)
Something that Tim Drake “superfans” need to learn how to accept is that the batfam doesnt revolve around Tim and Tim can and has done wrong. Coming from a Tim fan myself, this has been a huge issue in the batfam fandom and it plays a lot into other characters mischaracterization.
Yes, Bruce trained Tim a little harsher than the others, but that was after his son was brutally murdered. Bruce was trying to keep Tim safe.
Yes, Damian attacked Tim, but before that, Tim made fun of Damian and borderline insulted him before they even knew each other.
Yes, Jason did attack Tim in Titans Tower, but Jason had also believed that he had been replaced and discarded the moment he died.
Yes, Dick gave Robin to Damian, but in Dicks eyes, Tim was spiraling and cracking under his grief and couldnt be Robin anymore for his own mental health.
No, Dick didn’t threaten to send Tim to Arkham.
No, Jason didn’t ever call Tim Replacement (it was pretender, which is arguably worse but okay).
No, Damian is not a heartless creature who only wants to remove Tim.
Call Tim a sad coffee obsessed boy or whatever you want, but don’t butcher other characters just to put him on a pedestal.
by the way, here are the designs for the new damian 'the boy wonder' comic releasing in may:
Damian:
Dick
Barbara:
Bruce:
Jason:
Tim:
Alfred:
Ra's:
Talia:

Forever crying over Jack Drake. That man loved his son and i HATE what the fandom made him out to be.
Jack Drake who used his last words to not only tell his son he loved him, not only to find someone to care for his son, not only to remind him that his mother loved him too, not only to admit the work he does is worth it, but also to tell him that it is not his fault.
Jack Drake who knew his son, his precious boy who gave up his childhood to help people, would feel guilt if he didnt save him.
Jack Drake who knew he was to die, and could only think of his sons safety.
I'm gonna start by saying that if you have your opinion on these, it's totally okay! And if you want to include these ideas in fanon, that's fine too. This is only for people who wanna know more about canon, or those who may accidentally be spreading wrong information. I'm not a big comic reader, so do lmk if my research is incorrect, please.
"Tim Drake is/was the CEO of Wayne Enterprises. " This is actually incorrect, Tim Drake was never the CEO of Wayne Enterprises! I think he is a majority shareholder from what various people have told me. Lucius Fox is the CEO. Tim might play some part, I'm not sure, but not the CEO.
"Dick Grayson was a bad brother to Jason Todd." Dick may not have been the best brother as he wasn't around much, but he definitely wasn't horrible. Although he was still upset with Bruce, he actually gave Jason advice on being Robin when they stole the Batmobile together. They had their issues throughout their lives for sure. But Dick was actually really upset when Jason died because no one had told him. He wasn't even able to attend his funeral because he was in space and when he came back he had to figure it out himself.
"Tim Drake is addicted to coffee." I get where this is coming from, but there are very few references of Tim actually drinking much coffee, let alone being addicted to it haha. But, since this headcanon was so popular, it was adopted in the Wayne Family Adventures webtoon comic. I do think he is a workaholic, maybe a little like Bruce, but I'm not sure since I don't read about him much and he's pretty excluded in movies/shows.
Nicknames. Specifically "replacement". Jason actually NEVER called Tim replacement. He did call him pretender, but replacement is used so commonly that people think it's canon. I guess I can see where it's coming from. Other nicknames that are popularly used by fans may be canon but aren't used that often. "Little Wing" was used by Dick to Jason in Nightwing: Year One when Jason was Robin. I don't think it's been used again, but it is super cute. "Jaybird" is not something Dick or Bruce call Jason, it's only used by Roy Harper, seriously sometimes people forget he exists. There are many other nicknames like these ofc but there are way better posts to explain these (I may have reblogged one, so check it out).
5. Some Dick Grayson info that isn't canon but is popularly used in fanon and is pretty cute: Zitka. The elephant Zitka is definitely canon, and actually, I looked it up and there are some adorable panels on these two omg. So yes, he had an elephant named Zitka in the circus who he cared for a lot, but no he does not have an elephant stuffed toy no matter how cute that may be. He is also not addicted to cereal just as Tim isn't addicted to coffee, but a fellow commenter informed me it is his favorite food! One thing I've noticed though is if fans see something in one panel, they make it a huge deal lol. Another popular one is that Dick and Bruce fought a lot in front of Jason. They didn't. They definitely avoided each other and were going through a rough patch but they seldom yelled at each other in front of Jason. So yeah, idk what's up with that.
DAMN. You made it to the end, congratulations, and good job because you have a lot of patience. That's all for now, my fingers are cramping :( . Feel free to ask some questions below, or correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks for reading!
