Prompt #3249
"You wouldn't believe how many people have tried using catnip on me," the villain complained. "I mean seriously, I get that I transform into a panther, but really? It's a shadow panther. It's not even a real cat."
"Plus the lack of creativity," the hero agreed. "And the way people keep trying it after it didn't work the first few times."
"Right?!"

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

Comic Book Review: DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #22: Secret Origins of Super-Heroes
Comic Book Review: DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #22: Secret Origins of Super-Heroes edited by E. Nelson Bridwell
“Secret origins” are a big part of the superhero genre. Since, back in the day, most superheroes had secret identities, just how exactly they’d come to gain powers or the motivation to fight crime was also a secret to the public. But we readers got to be in on the secret, creating a…

Sometimes you just have one of those moments where the progress we've made as a culture get thrown into stark relief. You look at something and go "Holy shit, that would never have happened when I was a kid."
Today, I had one of those moments when I realized that the teenage boys I'm working with are just. genuinely, openly enthusiastic about going to Build-a-Bear for their outing.
These are sixteen and seventeen year old boys! They just had a whole conversation about what to name their "cute", mostly new squishmallows! They're genuinely excited that they're going to Build-a-Bear this weekend and asking other kids to pick up specific accessories for them!!
Holy shit, that never would've happened when I was 16. None of the boys would have dared to be visibly interested - and neither would most of the girls! There would have been a million gay jokes and "Haha, you're a girl" jokes and "What are you, a baby?" jokes. Teenagers weren't even supposed to care about anything back then!
Less than 15 years later, and I'm watching three 17 year old boys treat all that as not even worthy of comment.
So let's call that a reason for hope. Even when the kids aren't alright, in some ways apparently they are alright. Go Gen Z, honestly. It's so lovely to watch you guys just openly doing and saying stuff that, when I was a teen, would've been a social death sentence.

Prompt #3253
"Hey," said the villain. "Look. I get there's an inherent risk in telling you this, but since you can transform into animals...please don't turn into a bee and sting me."
The hero paled. "Will you...die?"
"Probably not, but epipens are expensive enough that I'll probably have to rob another bank to cover the cost. So let's just sidestep that and reduce the crime rate altogether, yeah?"
