Bleh. I bite my tongue when concentrating so I thought it would be funny to have Tim do it.

I recently got Batman and Robin: Jason Todd and I’ve got to say, I’m very disappointed. I feel like once they decided to bring Jason Todd back in the 2000s they had to make his death some kind of karmic punishment, or like something he caused by being too angry/hotheaded. I hate this. Just because someone becomes a villain doesn’t mean they always had villainous characteristics. He died because he loved, not because he hated. He wasn’t this revenge-fueled “bad kid”, he was a kid who despite having a hard life dedicated himself to helping others. Who had his love of his mother used against him. I will probably try to keep up with the run for the next few issues but I will likely drop it if nothing changes.

What time is it? Yet again 2 am. Fear not for me, I closed tonight so the night is still young. I’m very happy y’all have been liking my “Rook” Tim Drake art. Whilst I am out of class for the summer I really should practice more and this has been motivating me. I’m actually an animation major, maybe I should post some storyboards sometime. I digress, here is yet another drawing but I spent a little more time on it.

I love your Rook Tim Drake design!! It would be so cool to see Rook Tim Drake in the comics. If you haven't done this already, could you give an overview of the design, the events (if any) that trigger Tim fully moving on from Robin, and anything/everything else related?

Hello, thank you! So this is kinda a sheet with my ideas behind the design. Some people mentioned its similarity to batgirl and that was on purpose. I wanted to use Tim’s companions and friends in the design. One thing I hated about a certain identity I refuse to acknowledge was the lack of cape. Tim needs a cape.

The name was something I came up when writing a fanfic a long time ago, it is now orphaned, much like most of the batfam. Rook has three meanings. First a Rook is a corvid, a type of bird considered extremely intelligent, the family consists of Rooks, Ravens, Crows, and Blue Jays. Second, a Rook is a chess piece. The castle piece, that moves in straight lines, it is a strategic and powerful piece. Third, it also describes a cheater/ swindler. I love Tim, but it’s very clear that he is quick thinking and not the most honorable in a fight. He’s only won against opponents like Lady Shiva by cheating.

Finally lore-wise how I’d imagine him leaving Robin would be a short series in which Tim gets caught in a Time Loop. No apparent cause, just suddenly stuck in a moment in time. As he’s trapped playing out the same day, he worries that the world is moving on without him, that time is still moving for everyone else but him. An obvious commentary on his state in dc right now. He realizes this fact, time has just been passing by without him changing and now with time stuck he finally makes a change. How it would end or who or what is behind the time loop, I don’t know, I’d have to think about it.

His ass is not listening. Wow, my last post with “Rook” Tim Drake got way more attention than I expected. Anyways, it is once again late at night and so here are Dick and Tim on a case.

It’s 2 am and all I can do is lay and think about Batman. Specifically, as the next event nears, if they will do right by my boy Tim Drake. Hopefully they will let him move on from Robin. Anyways this is a concept that I thought of a while ago.
