The Konbart Zine 2024 Contributor Applications are now open! This nonprofit zine is a celebration of fanwork centering around pairing DC’s Superboy and Impulse. Please fill out this form if you’re interested in participating in the project—We’re taking all kinds of artists, including but not limited to digital artists, writers, fiber artists, sculptors, cosplayers and more! We would love to showcase your Konbart work.
Applicants do not need to include Konbart in their sample work, it is more important that you showcase your ability to show two (or more) characters interacting. Please keep in mind that the work must be your own, original work and not AI generated or copied from another source. All applicants should be 18 during the work period. If you are interested in the project but will be turning 18 after the application period, please contact either @nopes-and-dreams or @radioactive-earthshine so that we can discuss the possibility of your inclusion in the project at a later date.
51 Weeks.
3 Issues per week.
Kon's ENTIRE beginnings through his 1994 solo series in a book club environment where discussion is optional and casual with no weekly meetings.
This is a Discord server for ALL Kon fans who want to read his solo, or re-read his solo!
pérez doesn't seem to know bart's supposed to be older than fourteen any more than deodato did but spurrier is in my good books for now for the fact alone that he's aware of how important max and bart are to each other.
I just wanted to rant to you about this thing I saw. Ik we aren’t moots, but ik you’d understand my anger.
SOMEONE SAID THIS
IT MADE ME SO FUCKING LIVID!!!
Like, yes they did joke about him “being like a child” and them “being like the parents” but THEY ARE ALSO KIDS/TEENS AND ARE PROJECTING THEIR OWN INSECURITIES ON TO HIM WHEN THEY SAY THAT (plus sometimes the writers do NOT understand impulse so they say shit like that). The real parent of Young Justice IS OBVIOUSLY RED TORNADO BECAUSE HE IS THE ACTUAL FUCKING ADULT!!
Wish people would stop acting like Imp is mentally 8 and stop acting like shipping him with anyone his own age is super illegal and weird WHEN HE IS LITERALLY ON THEIR LEVEL!! LET THEM HOLD HANDS AND KISS AND GO ON DATES LIKE NORMAL TEENAGERS DO!!
Anyways, just hate the infantilization of neurodivergence.
ABSOLUTELY AGREE! Bart is the only member of yj to get constantly infantilized and it’s super frustrating. Neurodivergency is not interchangeable to maturity or age. That’s just not how it works. Even if people think Bart acts “childish/immature/whatever” which is usually a mischaracterization made by the fandom he is still a teenager and shouldn’t be treated as Tim and kons little brother or even weirder child. I think this sort of thing happens a lot to prop up timkon too and it makes me really loathe that shop all together. I’m sure there’s some normal timkonnies out there but the flanderization of Bart is so rampant and UGH
I misread your post about looking at mobster Dick fics as Lobster Dick fics and had QUESTIONS🤦
Bruce goes to a fish market for a lobster to eat, accidentally bonds with it in the car, names it Dick because it tries to pinch him when he removes the rubber bands from the claws, and then he insists on getting the best tank for Dick despite Alfred's confused protests.
