I’m Weirdly Proud Of Cyborg, Like He Started Out As A Side Character Created For A Comic Team And Now???

people don’t like it!?! it’s genuinely some of my favorite art of a lot of the batfamily characters

@vinelark you know what’s up. the art style is half the reason why I constantly reread cass’s batgirl run

Batfamily as actual things my family has said: Part 1

Bruce: Jason! No gang signs at the dinner table!

Damian: Stingrays are so smooth. They feel like Stephanie’s hands.

Steph: Was that a compliment? I can’t tell if that was a compliment.

Damian: OH I’M SORRY FOR TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU ASSHOLES FOR ONCE! GOD, I MENT THAT YOU HAVE SMOOTH HANDS!

Steph: Thank you?

Damian: whatever

Dick: Oh don’t worry the bite marks are just from Tim

Barbara:

Dick: I swear that sounded reassuring in my head

poor little jasons

CASSIE SANDSMARK READING ORDER

For those who, like me, when they like a character they need to read every single comic the character appears in, I have compiled a list of all of Cassie Sandsmark’s appearances from her debut up to the 2011 Flashpoint reboot (not including New 52 continuity).

me, a DC fanblog, daily: man i hate DC comics

forever sick and tired of people bringing up the muppet christmas carol when talking about interspecies muppet reproduction

the kids kermit and piggy "have" in that movie are not hypothetical children they could have. they're actors. in all the muppet adaptations of classic literature the point is that the muppets are acting. kermit is acting as bob crachit, piggy is acting as emily crachit, and so on and so forth. it's literally in the opening credits. tiny tim isn't kermit and piggy's child in an alternate universe. it's robin, kermit's nephew, playing the part of tiny tim.

please use actual canon muppet material and muppet interviews in your reseach

i whisper 'the fuck?' to myself about 15 times a day

Is it weird that i miss this? Like I genuinely found this dynamic so entertaining. And like honestly I kinda felt like it showed how much respect they had for each other? Like oracle could easily find out what Tim was up to/his identity, but because he doesn’t offer it up and chooses to keep it private, she doesn’t pry. I don’t know I just really liked this dynamic it was so different and interesting. I miss it. . .

these days the facto assumption usually seems to be that all of the Bats know everything about other members of the gang, so it's really interesting to get these jarring reminders that they used to operate with crazy levels of secrecy. like just in Nightwing #20 (1998) we have Barbara being the last person to find out that Harold even exists, years after he started living in the Batcave

and, even more drastic, Barbara and Tim meeting in person for the first time ever (also god they talk about Bruce like he's an elderly dog they need to keep track of lmao)

and Babs doesn't even know Tim's secret identity! when he and Dick head over to Wayne Manor to look for Bruce, Tim peels off to check on his dad next door, and not only does Babs not know why but Dick doesn't even tell her. she has no idea who Robin is outside of the costume and absolutely no one thinks that's weird.

they're sooooo dysfunctional I love them

Post- Robin face reveal but pre-Robin identity reveal, Kon sees Tim among the hostages of an armed bank robbery he just thwarted in Metropolis. He flies over to him fully intending on making fun of him for getting caught up in it.

“Hey, Rob…” realizes a second too late that Robin isn’t alone and he’s about to blow his secret identity in front of… Bruce freaking Wayne?? “…ing. Robbing. You. Yeah, um. Im robbing you.”

Tim blinks incredulous, “What?”

“Yeah, I’m robbing you right now,” Kon says, committing to this decision. “Gimme your wallet or I’ll… I’ll beat you up with my tactile-telekinesis. You too, Mr Wayne.”
