PREACH PREACH PREACH 🙌🙌🙌
"Dick was an angry kid", "Dick was full of rage when he was Robin", "Jason was the happy Robin, not Dick"
Look at me in the eyes and explain to me how this sweet, playful, mischievous, kind and thoughtful kid is an angry child.
He was not an angry child. He does not deserve to be labelled as such.
You know what Dick Grayson was, though? He was a child with feelings. A kid that experienced all kind of emotions corresponding to the situation he was in.
I'm not telling you he was never angry and that he was always a happy-go-lucky kid. But is ridiculous how there's so much insistence on this idea that he was full of rage and his only mood was anger.
"But when his parents died-" When his parents died he was, above all, so fucking heartbroken. Yes, he was angry, because it wasn't fair. He shouldn't have lost everything in one night. He shouldn't have had to watch the bodies of the two persons he most loved in the world fall and break. He was just a kid. Of course he's going to feel anger after that. But that's not the only thing he felt. He was sad, too. And in spite of that tragedy, he could smile and feel some happiness as well.
Calling him an angry child is very insensitive, in my opinion. Is that how you call a child grieving his parents and processing loss?
Dick Grayson wasn't full of rage. He was full of life. He was full of the strength to keep going, of the love his parents left him, and of the pain of loss for a while. He was full of good and became someone who'd prevent more tragedies like his from happening. And there was anger, yes, but it was never what drove him to be Robin.
very tired of the ‘Dick Grayson is mostly a pretty boy with bad puns, golden retriever vibes’ trope. Give me German Shepherd Dick. Give me the ‘consummate performer’ Dick. The one all, brilliance, bloody smiles and showmanship, the one with razor sharp wit and charm made weapon. Dick who seamlessly switches between a million personas. The one who doesn’t know what to do when the show’s over. Give me the Dick no one wants to be on the wrong side of because Nightwing might not start battles, but he finishes them. The only one whose threats the entire Batfam (including Bruce) takes seriously. The one fear toxins can’t affect because he’s been to hell and back.
The Dick who unlike Jason doesn’t even mention how much he’s been fucked up and survived. The one the Joker knew he couldn’t break.
I love thinking that Dick has merch for every hero he can find. Most of his t-shirts and hoodies are superhero merch.
As a civilian, people know perfectly well that Dick Grayson is a fan of superheroes, he doesn't care in the least about this, obviously, he's not the only one.
As you might expect, he doesn't actually have much of his own merch, it's not like he's his own fan. He just has bracelets or necklaces that he wears most of the time, simply because it would be too strange if, being a fan of heroes, he was not a fan of his own city's hero. So, when he appears in interviews and is asked about Nightwing merch, he shows off a bracelet or a pendant, even an anklet. Something more discreet, but something he can wear every day.
Like Nightwing, all the heroes know he likes to wear merch. He's been spotted wearing other heroes' hoodies and jackets over his costume several times.
If Nightwing appears in public wearing another hero's merch, it will boost that hero's ego for the rest of the week. He mainly wears Titans, Superman, or his family merch (not all the time tho, they get unbearable sometimes).
What Nightwing doesn't know... Is that there isn't a single hero who doesn't have Nightwing merch, even with how difficult it is to get shipments outside of Blüdhaven.
He only knows that his friends have his merch, and he always jokes about it, since he still thinks it's just to playfully annoy him... He can't believe how fanatical they are about him.
If I only knew...
DC’s reasoning for breaking up Dick and Kory is painfully ironic if you stop to think about it. Obviously a big part of Dick is that he desperately wanted to get out of Bruce’s shadow and become his own hero. Basically what happened is they realized they did too good of a job of bringing Dick Grayson out of Batman’s shadow that people were associating him with the titans more than they did with Batman and the Batman writers hated it. So they broke them up and put Dick with Batgirl. This is crazy considering a huge part of Dick’s character is getting out of Batman’s shadow.
They were super popular too. The only comic couple outselling them was Peter and MJ.

Damian, visibly distressed: Has Grayson always had a habit of running headlong into certain death?
Tim: Well sometimes he walks. Occasionally, he shuffles. Periodically, he ambles.
Jason: Once, I'm pretty sure I saw him trip into certain death.
the joy of realizing someone is a similar type of freak as you
