DICK GRAYSON and TALIA AL GHUL coparenting is such a cruel and unusual punishment for both of them but also for damian. I know they don’t do a good job of it either it’s a shitshow in the way typically only brought on by an acrimonious divorce. First time these behaviors have been seen outside of a walmart parking lot weekend custody swap

I kinda think that it makes more sense if Jason’s exploding helmet was a one time trick and he’s not actually running around getting shot at with an bomb on his head but at the same time I can’t say it’s out of character for his version of a last resort weapon/cyanide pill to be an exploding helmet

I am never not thinking about the load-bearing bodies in the Batman franchise (Thomas + Martha, Jason, + 90s Gotham in Peril) + how they each echo throughout the canon.

Successive authors keep setting up storylines which either implicitly or explicitly call back to these distinct frameworks of loss (eg. Batman encountering others who have lost or will lose their parents; Batman's kids after Jason all (temporarily) dying in some way; Batman's city forever succumbing to some existentially threatening trouble across the twenty-first century). All these, consciously or not, tap into the potent feelings of grief staked out by the original losses, + yet I find they fail to overwrite the OG memory in part because it was experiencing these unique types of losses for the first time that made these bodies matter. Metatextually, they each became the foundation to a different floor of Bruce's characterisation.

The loss of his parent/s => the man who would create the Batman. The loss of his child => the man who would struggle to maintain meaningful emotional bonds. And finally, the loss of his city, a process inaugurated by the Cult but solidified by No Man's Land => the man who could no longer envision a better world for Gotham and was left defending its remnants.

This is another reason why I believe the Batcat marriage from Rebirth Batman should've gone ahead + ended in divorce. If Bruce + Selina had genuinely done their best but it wasn't enough, Batman would have experienced a new framework of loss - the loss of a partner who chose to walk away. And instead of making him worse, maybe, just maybe, the mourning cycle kicked off by this grief would have led to him appreciating the people he still has.

for the longest time I thought restaurant style fries had batter on them and I’m only recently realizing that the reason that they have that craggily texture is because they rough up the texture of the fries in the triple cook method they use for maximum crunch
