alfred is mom-coded canon
i’m two weeks late but happy fourth anniversary to the official dc sexy dick grayson edit 🎉
This !!!!
I feel like a lot of this comes from people who are uncomfortable with the whole “child soldier” concept and try to make it Less Bad by aging them up. But at the end of the day, Robin was designed as a vessel for child readers to imagine themselves as Batman’s sidekick. The whole concept of Superheroes is so impossibly ludicrous in the first place, I don’t think it’s necessary to try to apply real life morals to Every Single Situation. Let the nine year old fight crime in a silly outfit! It’s fiction!
i don’t really fuck with people making robin (any of them, really) much older then they were originally when they were introduced. ofc comics are sometimes vague about that sort of thing, but dick turned eight already living in wayne manor, so it feels weird when we have him start being robin at any older than 10. it cuts his time short when it was the longest period of batman history and also takes away the key factor that explains his actions and thought process as a child
time in comics is different than the real world, obviously, but we NEED to try and translate some of the irl context into the stories. a reader can’t understand the weight of dick needing to get out of batman’s shadow after being his sidekick for decades if in universe he was there for 3 years at best
You draw her with wavy hair, but im really curious on what a curly haired steph would look in your style 👀
MY GIRL!!!!
she was due for a redesign anyway i haven't drawn her properly in a while
not to be a killjoy but it's still crazy to me that it's considered mean to be like "maybe you should read / play / watch the source material before creating fanworks and diving into the fandom" bc every time i see somebody going "i havent played disco elysium or know anything about it tbh but uwu here's harry and kim kissing" idk maybe you should engage with it. maybe you should play the anti-capitalist surrealist game where you investigate the murder of a mercenary who led the gang rape of a foreign girl and process that for a bit? and then you can do cutesy mlm or whatever idc. but like at the absolute bare minimum you should understand what the source material involves otherwise we get the phenomenon of people joining a dragon age server and wanting content warnings for like, mage racism. like it's fine to ship and transform the genre into whatever but if you arent comfortable with discussions of the actual source content itself then maybe the fandom isnt for you and a different one is. peace and love.
he is the girls and the gays in my heart
They should be making out Bart thinks
i hope tim drake gets disowned and falls down the stairs in front of photographers and his boyfriend leaves him and all his friends stop texting him back and the spirits of his dead parents come back and call him a slur and he gets tetanus from a rusty nail on his ugly houseboat and the houseboat sinks and dick calls him inept and he develops a shellfish allergy for real and eats a shrimp and keels over dead
