is there literally any other piece of media where you can say "you should probably engage with the source material before you engage in discussions of the source material" and be met with accusations of of ableism and gatekeeping somehow
the funniest thing tt has ever done was to get people hyped for medieval fantasy superbat and then reveal they were half brothers, genuinely just an insane move lmao
i don't want steph to be batgirl in current continuity but i still think her time as batgirl was so important to her as a character. she dreamed of batman saving her as a child and yearned so desperately for his approval that it literally killed her but when she finally gets a
Barbara becoming Oracle is not where the misogyny lies, you dumb fucks. Yes, TKJ treated her character fucking horribly. Oracle came AFTER. Oracle took a bad situation and did the best with it. Oracle is a reclamation of agency. You have it all backwards and it angers me.
if steph really is 18, that confirms tim as 17 and since damian is definitely 14 and has been robin since he was ten, that means tim was robin for like. a month. before damian showed up. which i think is hilarious
also, despite the bat on her suit, she's credited as spoiler, which bugs me. put her in the spoiler suit, c'mon! it's better than this. not that this is horrible, i'm just biased toward spoiler steph
ages ago somebody suggested allie meeting ace (instant besties) and because they had to wait so long, they got allie meeting bruce (she hates him) (or maybe she's just teething) (steph thinks it's funnier to think she hates him) as a bonus.
do occasionally think about an au where tim bestows robin upon steph after jack finds out about it and becomes her man in the chair/oracle knock-off (the gray ghost. or just ghost. gg. idk lol)
having a ship that *used to be* canon is somehow worse than having a ship that has never been and will never be canon, like, what do you MEAN i could still have canon timsteph and yet will probably never again
i know you guys are mourning the de-greasy-fication of barbara gordon but i was too distracted by the freckles to even pay attention to all that, i love it when she's drawn with freckles, i love that she has freckles on her shoulders
calling jon damian's only real friend (pre-age-up) is actual insanity. like, yeah, dc has a problem with erasing damian's friendships but that. literally never happened with jon, they're still the best of friends lol
it's still so funny to me that babs just has a default civilian outfit now like some sort of cartoon character, is there literally a single other comic character who's in the same turtleneck every third appearance
