THE most underrated duke fit ever
being keeping a hold of this post for a while and finally got to post it 🙏
+close ups
My most random Duke headcannon is that he would have a pet rabbit.
The rabbits name is Bat-Bun and they go paroling together sometimes.
Duke teaches Bat-Bun all the cute trick like playing soccer and giving high fives.
Damian often goes over to Duke's to play with Bat-Bun, even if Duke isn't there. He often comes home from patrol to Damian and his mum sitting together and talking while feeding Bat-Bun sweet potato.
Duke threaten to steal Damain's mum in retaliation.
Damian threatens to steal his rabbit if he tries.
They both settle for playing soccer with Bat-Bun together.
I couldn’t decide which version i liked better but here’s a quick work up of Duke Thomas I did.
Genuinely just curious, no hate or anything. Honestly I don't fully understand what is going on with him.
No because you see Duke was FORGED by his parents everything he does is in service of THEM to HONOUR their legacies. But Cass was forged IN SPITE of David Cain everything she does is not about HIM but to TAKE CONTROL of her destiny. And Batgirl was her, it was Cass it was all of her, it was the first thing she ever owned; and Robin was his but also theirs, it was Duke and his friends and Damian and the people Duke loves, it was something they shared. But now Cass shares Batgirl with Steph like a hoodie because she loves her, because she can now forge a community around her she never had as a kid. And now Duke becomes the Signal because he's forging his own path, because he's directly honouring his mother rather than using another mother's legacy, maintaining his focus on community but also celebrating what makes him special. They're SO DIFFERENT but they LOVE EACH OTHER and family is so so important to both of them do you even understand what it means for Duke to call Cass his sister??? And for Cass to let him??? These two people for whom family means very different things but is so fundamental to who they are, for them to meet and choose each other means THE WORLD. DUKE & CASS FOREVER
ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.
Reading lists nobody asked for but I made anyway, enjoy
me explaining how Duke may not be a Wayne but he is a batsibling and the complex relationships that he has with each of the batfamily members
hi do you know where I can find a list of all of duke's comic appearances? really struggling to find one!
Unfortunately there's no reading list I've found that encompasses all of his appearances 😔. @duketectivecomics has the closest one with all Duke appearances until Infinite Frontier, but after that it's really difficult to parse out the order of things. You could gamble with the DC fandom page of Duke's appearances which is accurate but out of order, it's a pain but it does tell you all his appearances. After duketectivecomics' list he only has a couple main roles anyway, which seem to be:
Batman: Urban Legends #18-19
Some sporadic appearances in Gotham War
DC Rise of the Power Company
As far as I know that's all, but obviously he cameos a lot in other books. This lack of an updated reading list is bothering me too so I might actually get on that myself, unless someone else has an updated list they want to share (in which case please do!!!). Sorry to not be of more help anon :(.
Duke Thomas/Signal!
