😭

So mad at how long this took

[betterthanbatman1]

saw the tweet below on my tl and it was so devastatingly rude i had to doodle something out. happy late father’s day, i guess

[betterthanbatman1]

My reaction to any Jason Todd news usually has two stages:

[betterthanbatman1]

I really want to draw anatomy but learning is difficult and I don’t want to get disappointed and discouraged aghhh

[betterthanbatman1]

YESSS TELL ME ITS TEN THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU

dick and jason watch romcoms together bc they're the baddest bitches alive

dick: let's watch a romcom

tim: you wouldn't catch me dead watching one of those

damian: *ignoring them while he watches some action movie or documentary*

bruce: i'm busy with a case

everyone looks over and watches as jason pulls out snacks and opens netflix: which one?

everyone: ...

jason: i'm not ashamed

Requested by @alleywolf and @cristalk

btw about We Are Robin, I think one of the Robin specifically said that the kids from We are Robin are not technically Robin (something about robins being picked by batman idk) so I'd say they wouldn't be able to see ghost!jason. Plus security risk cuz jason has his face out lol

[betterthanbatman1]

Honestly doesn’t surprise me, just another one of DC’s huge mischaracterisations and massacring my boy

Jason Todd fans!! Do not read the new 'Batman and Robin Jason Todd' run. I repeat. Do. Not. Read. It

The miracle didn't happen. It's as bad as we feared.

They somehow managed to give Jason an attitude so randomly aggressive it rivals Damian's back when DC still wanted him to be a villan. I'm not kidding. He reacts aggressively to everything

Literally, first page we get this:

Forget Jason becoming Robin just because he wanted Bruce to love him. Robin is Magic is dead.

Is like they saw Jason disobeying Batman in DITF and then being angry and murdereous on UTRH and just said 'yep, that's his personality', ignoring all of the reasons he had to act like that in those runs

And like, yeah, they going for the 'troubled kid' storyline. Okay, whatever.

We do see some signs of Jason being scared by the death of his parents and just acting out as a direct result of fear others will get hurt. We do see compassion from him. So that salvages his character a bit

But then they make Alfred say this shit

They made ALFRED "KIDS GET BEHIND ME" PENNYWORTH SAY JASON WAS BEYOND HELP. That it was better to just give up on him

This Alfred!!!!

This Alfred!!!

It's so fucking baffling to me. I am genuinely in disbelief.

Alfred is literally the one to always tell Bruce to get his head out of his ass when dealing with the kids. I don't know how you fuck that up.

When Damian is first introduced Alfred is the only one in that cave to see a kid that has been hurt and needs guidance instead of an assassin. And Damian literally comes in murdering people!!! Jason is not half as bad and you have Alfred giving up on him??

No. Just no.

I genuinely don't know how they fucked up this bad but they did.

A list of the Batfamily members and the kpop groups they’d stan, that no one asked for :3

Dick: BTS, BlackPink- self explanatory. He’s an oldie, he likes the classics, he was a casual listener and got really into them once they sent waves through the kpop industry. He has a secret stash of PCs. Edit: Steph wanted to get him into the newer generation of kpop and introduced him to P1Harmony. (Pretty Boy was basically written for him).

Jason: Xdinary Heroes, IU — I can’t see Jason as a kpop stan, but if I’d have to choose a group then it’ll be Xdinary Heroes. They’ve got the punk down which I think he’d like. Steph definitely got him into them, he didn’t search on his own. He listens to their music but doesn’t go collecting their albums for the inclusions. HOWEVER, this led to Jason looking for someone more to his tastes…IU— Jason found IU and loves her music, her soft voice and meaningful lyrics really touch his heart and being the emotional boy that he is, he’s now obsessed.

Tim: TXT, Enhypen, Zerobaseone, Itzy — TXT because they’re funny and silly and Tim just gives off txt vibes I can’t explain. Enhypen because he’s like their darker concepts. Zb1 because there’s no way they’re straight T_T. /hj Their music is so good and catchy, he’d really like it,..and their outfits are always top tier. Itzy because they’re big on empowerment and self love whilst also ranging to edgier and mature themes and styles all of which Tim would love. he could use some self love motivation.

Steph: Nct is her ult, then Seventeen, TXT, Enhypen, Nmixx, New Jeans, (G)I-dle — She is a MASSIVE kpop girlie. I could go on. She likes a lot of groups but she doesn’t just put on random songs, she knows who she likes and why, and she appreciates each member. She geeks (and screams) over PCs and unboxes albums with Dick, Duke, Cass and Tim. Steph’s stack of PCs are taller than her arm. She’s a quick learner and can learn the dance choreo to a song quickly, often doing it with Cass or one of the other batfamily members and putting on her social media. It ALWAYS gets reposted by the artist.

Cass: Nct Dream, Stray Kids, Red Velvet, Big Ocean— Steph introduced her to these groups hoping she’d like them and so far she does. Nct dream warms her heart and they’re very cool. Stray kids remind her that she’s not alone + amazing concepts. And Red velvet have lovely visuals. Big Ocean, Steph introduced to her when she was new to the manor and starting to communicate in sign language. She was drawn to Big Ocean’s music and felt a deep connection with the way they communicated their music through sign language. All of the groups dancing mesmerizes her, and she studies them closely.

Duke: &Team, BigBang, Lesserafim— &Team are cinnamon rolls just like Duke and they’re chaotic just like him too (Steph should introduce him to Seventeen for ultimate chaos). BigBang/ G-Dragon because his fashion sense is crazy and Duke is a fashion icon in my head so I think he’d get into BigBang’s music through G-dragons fashion. Lesserafim because they’re badass and I think Duke would like their music and they’re cutiepies.

Damian: BTS, BigBang— Damian is a little old fashioned, he likes the old stuff. He likes having another thing to talk about with Dick. He doesn’t collect albums or PCs but the others bought him an old album and he was very happy about it

Babs: Got7, Riize — A litttle more emo than the other groups. Got7 because its older gen. Riize because they have darker concepts that she’d really like with very cool and unique styles, ranging from pop to ballads, with angst too.

Bruce: PSY— Bruce is olddd, all he knows is “oppa Gangnam” and says “Of course I know Korean popular music!!” after Steph asks if he likes Kpop.

Alfred: Steph’s taste in music because it’s so loud through her headphones, Alfred can hear it anyway.

[betterthanbatman1]

YES

Jason: *walks into living room and pauses, looking at tim* uh Tim: *frowns as he looks up from a book* what? Jason: um. Tim: dude. Spit it out. Jason: *still staring* you like that book? Tim: yeah I’m really loving it! It’s a new bestseller, Steph recommended it. It’s a fun fantasy. ‘S got dragons and the romance is nice and Jane Austen-esque. You should read it, it’s right up your alley. Jason: uh. Okay. I’ll, uh, look into it. And, uh, what about the author? Know anything about them? Tim: *frowns* aside from the fact that there’s like, no information about them, no Jason: *chuckles nervously* ah, yeah. Haha.

Jason, later to his editor: hey can we change my pseudonym? I wanna use “Todd Peter” and see how long it takes for my brother to yell at me editor: Jason that’s not how pseudonyms work

[betterthanbatman1]

owch.

So, Hush 2 was a dumpster fire. I come back from my tumblr hiatus and have to see my blorbo get shot in the face by Batman. DC WHAT THE FUCK???

NO SERIOUSLY WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

Batman saving Joker yet again (okay that’s not so out of character) but is wildly infuriating. AND SHOOTS RED HOOD- HIS SON.

Batman. The man who’s parents were gunned down in front of him. The man who has sworn to never touch a gun. Uses one on his own son. I-

IF YOURE GOING TO USE A GUN BATMAN MAYBE USE IT ON THE FUCKING JOKER

And god don’t even get me started on that other comic of Bruce getting it on with the daughter of the man who murdered his parents, I swear that better have been an alternate universe

I CACKLED LMAOO

Batman #465 (1991)

Everything about this sequence of panels fucking kills me.

In that first panel there's just the slightest bit of space between Tim's shoulder and Bruce's thumb, giving the impression that Bruce isn't actually touching him and is just hover-handing it.

Bruce: Tim I'm going to head out for a sec, will you be okay?

Tim, on his first official patrol as Robin: Yeah chill I'm not going to fucking DIE. Wait.

LIVE BRUCE REACTION.

FULL ASS OUT EXIT.
