More of my robin and batman comics^^
Roy: It's so unfair
Wally: What's unfair?
Roy: How so damn pretty Dick is!
Kori: *Positively smug* Of course he is beautiful. I tell him every day. Sometimes twice. Sometimes all night
Gar: *annoyed* It's so unfair! The guy could literally commit a crime and just smile his way out of it!
Wally: On that note, sometimes it's a good thing.
Roy: What?
Wally: One time, we got pulled over for speeding, and the cop let him go because he "looked trustworthy".
Gar: So?
Wally: I was driving.
"love is what makes us human" actually it's 'select all images with boat' but go off I guess
Big fan of the Reverse Robins AU because not only does Dick Grayson deserve a break from his eldest daughter syndrome but also imagine Dick Grayson as the baby of the family? He’d have them all wrapped around his finger.
Me with Star Wars
The funniest hyperfixations have gotta be the ones where you watch something and go "this thing is cute. I like it. not sure if Id call it a favorite of mine but its definitely enjoyable at least" and then cut to a month later and its completely overtaken your life
my friends r so talented. rb if ur friends are talented
I dont think he wants help Bruce…
maysilee donner really said if i have to fight to the death im gonna serve rupaul levels of cunt while doing so and i just think that's really cool of her
Woah, there’s no reason to get so heated. I never said he’s perfect, he does some bad things but terrible is a stretch. Like yeah, taking Robin away from Tim? He went about that completely wrong, even if he had his reasons. I will say that making mistakes doesn’t mean he’s a terrible sibling. And because I love exploring the dynamics between the Bat Family, I’m going to go through some moments where Dick was a good sibling to each of them, or at least some cute moments between them!
Tim
This is probably my favorite Batfam dynamic (with Steph and Damian being a close second) In many ways Tim helped Dick become a big brother. He felt like he failed Jason by not being there and made an effort to be more available to Tim!
Here’s some moments between the two!
When Dick trusted Tim not to use the Lazarus pit?
Or when he and Babs threw Tim a surprise Christmas party so he wouldn’t be alone on Christmas
After Tim quits being Robin, he’s nervous that Dick and Bruce won’t talk to him again. Tim’s school gets shot up and Bruce is adamant that he’s okay but Dick goes to check up on him.
Even when they’re fighting, they’re there for each other! This takes place after Dick gives Robin to Damian!
Also! I want to add that in Bruce Wayne murderer, Dick and Tim do argue because Dick is angry that Tim is doubting Bruce’s innocence, it’s a very emotional time for the two and siblings fight all the time. Hell my sister has snapped at me tons of times and I’ve snapped at her.
Jason
The biggest thing with Dick and Jason, is Dick wasn’t there a lot when Jason was Robin, because he was mostly with the Titans at the time, but when he was there, he did his best. Here’s some moments of Dick being a good brother to Jason!
Dick gives Jason his number as well as his Robin suit (this panel is quite old but DC continuity is really confusing)
Or when Jason is grounded and Dick takes him out on an adventure to help him out
And he even apologizes to Jason because Bruce compared the two
And when Jason is accused of murder, Dick trusts him when he says he didn’t do it
I will say that out of all of Dick’s siblings, he probably made the most mistakes with Jason, which kinda makes sense because that was his first time being a big brother figure. But even then, you have this little moment:
Damian
This is a major one! Dick and Damian are probably the sibling relationship that gets the most focus in current comic (which I have my own opinions on, because I hate that they put his relationship with the others on the back burner) But Dick is very essential to Damian’s character growth. And yeah they get off to a rocky start, Dick was grieving Bruce’s death and all of the sudden he’s in charge of a murderous 2nd grader. He wasn’t the most emotionally available, I’d honestly say their relationship is in the middle of parent/child and siblings. I’ve maxed out the amount of photos I can use in a post so I’ll leave you with this!
God I love them so much.
Cass
Don’t worry! I didn’t forget Cass! But they don’t have as many moments compared to the others! Like I said, I ran out of photos, but I can list some!
- If I recall correctly, Dick wasn’t the most welcoming to Cass because! He’s NOT perfect! He makes mistakes and he can be a real Dick (pun intended) but a huge thing is, he acknowledges this, apologizes to her and they agree to put it behind them! This happens in Batman and the outsiders (2007) #14
- This is more a moment of her helping him out, but in Nightwing (1996) #81, Dick gets shot, Cass visits him in the hospital and he enlists her help in defeating Deathstroke. This is an important moment because a big theme in Nightwing 1996 was Dick stretching himself thin and trying to do everything on his own, which caused him to start getting sloppy.
- In Nightwing #106 Dick teaches Cass how to make his world famous pancakes, which is adorable!
(but I mean so does almost every member of the batfamily)
And as for Duke, I’m not sure if they have any moments together?
And I can totally get your frustration that people act like he’s perfect and honestly that’s probably why I’m not the biggest fan of Tom Taylor’s Nightwing run because he made him almost into a Mary-Sue and I think a flawed Nightwing is the best Nightwing, like I mentioned how in Nightwing 1996, he insists on doing everything alone, which leads to him getting overworked, which leads to him getting shot on duty, which leads to Blockbuster realizing that Nightwing is Dick Grayson which leads to basically his whole life falling apart.
I hate the “bad sibling Dick Grayson” tag, like Dick Grayson would never. Especially in Tim centric fics. They have such a close bond in canon, Tim Drake is Dick Grayson’s #1 fan and Dick raves about Tim like every other issue in Nightwing (1996)
Dick Grayson is not a player. Dick Grayson is not a player. Dick Grayson does NOT sleep around, that is unfaithful to him and his morals which he has iterated multiple times in CANON.
BEING ATTRACTIVE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY WARRANT HIM BEING PORTRAYED AS A MAN SLUT.
EDIT: Also, while I’m out here dissolving bullshit misconceptions about Dick Grayson, can everyone PLEASE get on the same page with the fact that him cheating on Kori with B*rbara is NO LONGER CANON. It was RETCONNED because it was such bullshit.
This guy legit had issues with being with his own girlfriend while she had a political loveless marriage with a man on Tamaran. Despite Dick being in love with her, and Kori with Dick, he respects marriage that deeply. So yeah nah, let that purely OOC and non-canon storyline GO. Kori has always been the only woman for him, but that’s another argument altogether. My point is though that he would NEVER cheat on that woman who he loves so fucking deeply.

Do you guys ever truly think about how young Dick and Damian were as Robin? Like Jason and Tim were extremely young too but they were early teens late tweens. But Dick was 9 and Damian was 10, like they were still getting visits from the Tooth Fairy.
