Gonna put her in my pocket and carry her home.

Pulling her out of the lab and putting in a random gardening fit. I can't make myself finish my old wips with her for now so I'm just doodling random new stuff for fun 🌱

i think what most people (and horribly enough, even some writers) don’t understand about batcat is that it was conceived as a power play between two characters where selina (and not bruce) holds all the power. everything that occurs in their relationship occurs entirely on her terms and to pretend this isn’t the case is blatantly ahistorical. the conflict was always supposed to be about ‘mom and dad fighting and making up’ on this small personal level with robin as the passive observer in between. gotham war’s premise isn’t incorrect, just terribly written with poor reasonings as to why characters would choose the sides they would.

batman and catwoman as a primordial sex game and heady rivalry between the archetypal concepts of ‘man’ and ‘woman,’ both being primal and intellectual in nature - a kind of ‘merry war’ between the sexes that leads to both parties rising to the challenge and improving for the sake of meeting and besting one another…

‘two orphans lost, who see the weak in one another.’

Dear Mr Riddler Sir,

Do you think that majority doctors at Arkham are actually successful doctors,or just random people who are affordable?

BONUS:What's the Riddler's favorite animal?

“Hmm, well, I cannot speak on behalf of all of the doctors in Arkham Asylum, of course. But my primary care doctor, Jeremiah Arkham is a board certified criminal psychiatrist — as is his wife, Ingrid Karlsson; except her field is criminal psychology.

Doctor Hugo Strange is licensed as well — but he needs to renew his. He has been putting it off because unfortunately for him, his suspicious amount of suspensions and malpractice accusations will make that rather difficult; something I intend to hold over his head when the moment’s right.

As for good Doctor Jonathan Crane, he is certified as well, but god knows someone needs to take his license away. He strapped me to a chair — the heathen. General friendliness does not negate the trauma he just adored to put me through.

But this isn’t what you asked. They have those pretty little certifications, certainly, but they are hardly successful. If any of the doctors at the asylum were truly successful, they would’ve ‘fixed’ us already instead of drugging us into docile oblivion.

I’d argue that out of all of them, Jeremiah Arkham has been the most successful as I am currently the only rogue who has made numerous genuine attempts at redemption — though, that might not be a fair comparison as I am Doctor Arkham’s only patient, since he’s been able to find more staff he’s devoted more of his time to being director rather than psychiatrist. Besides, Crane and Strange collect lawsuits like trinkets, something that doesn’t appeal to me. The guards are who you have to look out for. Arkham Asylum’s security detail is the playground for overly violent ex-cops who believe it’s my fault they got fired because I made them just a bit too excited to use excessive force.

My favorite animal? This is a whiplash-like change in subject, but a welcome one. I would have to say my favorite animal is the fox. Cunning, intelligent, light on their feet, and rather tricky. They symbolize wisdom and adaptability. Sound familiar?”

If you read a decent number of comics centering Eddie, you’ll notice that after the spandex era, his designs become just as inconsistent as his characterization. Just as writers are constantly trying to refine or reinvent him—leaving us with half a dozen wildly different takes over the decades—his appearance also keeps changing. It’s especially funny when it happens within the same run.

The first image is from Detective Comics #822, and the second is from #828. Same artist team. I have no idea why the colorist made Eddie a ginger in issue #822, only to change his mind and give him dark hair in #828. It probably doesn’t matter—the answer is likely just “because he felt like it”—but it fuels my personal headcanon that Eddie frequently dyes his hair.

Especially this Edward, who’s still trying to find his footing after a coma that left him with long-term memory issues. I can easily picture him working too late, getting home from his office, forgetting that any thoughts you have about yourself after 9 PM should be discarded, and having a little episode that leads to a frantic hair-dyeing session with a box of Just for Men.

batcat challenges you to match their freak, wyd?

Alfred, sarcastically: Well, why don’t you just go kiss the Joker?

Batman: Because he tastes funny.

Alfred: *Confused and judgemental stare*

Batman: That was a clown joke.

I had this idea a while ago, but I never had a chance to write a note about it. I've made it clear that I like open comedy more than almost any other genre. And I've made it clear I like batman villains more than batman himself. And I used to really be interested in SCTV, an old sketch comedy series with the wraparound concept of everything being set at a tv station. And then I remembered there was an episode of The Batman (2004) where Joker created his own TV channel. If you combine all these things, you should sort of see what my brain came up with a while ago.

A TV show about Joker and Harley creating their own TV station. If we go with The Batman (2004)'s story about Harley once being a trashy relationship advice pop psychologist on TV, this could all be a desperate attempt by her to regain the spotlight (and for Joker to get some attention too). But it'd be even funnier if the show runs for multiple seasons, and more and more villains slowly end up attaching themselves to the station.

The show is actually almost devoid of typical superhero and supervillian fights. Except for in the season finales. Almost every season ends with the villains tv station getting shut down due to the superheroes. The villians haven't actually done anything wrong yet, but the heroes are too suspicious. To stay on TV, the villians have to keep finding new methods to hijack the airwaves (or find sufficiently corrupt and wealthy backers).

It really would just be an outright comedy, with each villain's unique media presence being part of the comedy. Because none of their shoes are that good, honestly. Nothing is put together well, because their budget is minimal and their staff all hate each other. The station is always on the verge of collapse, either due to law enforcement or internal mismanagement. I'm pretty much just pitching SCTV with Supervillians here, but nobody's capable of stopping me.

I mean…come on. Wouldn't you watch acting lessons from Clayface? Riddler's horrible quiz show, where everyone beats him (despite him insisting he's unbeatable with mental puzzles)? Harley Quinn and Livewire presenting a trashy talk show together? Batman trying to buy the station as Bruce Wayne, only for Lex Luthor to beat him to it?There's so many ridiculous villians that the show could have an endless retinue of sketches. At the very least, it could be stretched as long as SCTV was. Five to six seasons of this. I'd watch it, and I bet others would too.

Leaving aside that any variation of "this is happening because leftists wouldn't pinch their nose and vote for the lesser evil™" about the bombing of Iran is just factually untrue (Harris made it repeatedly clear that she considered Iran a threat which she would make a priority to stop with military force, and Democrat presidents don't exactly have a track record of being more opposed to bombing middle-eastern countries than Republican presidents), it's just such a perfect demonstration of first-world ghoulishness how so many self-proclaimed progressive americans will see people in another country get bombed and their first thought will be "I should use this to votescold other americans" before the bodies are even cold.
