The risk of getting caught in fishing gear as "bycatch" is the leading threat to whales, dolphins, and other marine mammals. Every year, more than 650,000 marine mammals worldwide die or suffer serious injury when they are enveloped in nets or pierced by fishhooks.

Gotham's newest Crime Lord - part 2

Part 1 | Masterpost

Wraith wrecked havoc like no other.

He was loved and hated by the masses. Defended by Gotham regardless of what they felt of him. A figure in the underworld that hunted down those who moved to harm one of their kin and executed anyone who laid their hands in the weak—children.

The first explosion had been explained by the scattering papers and the anonymous posts of an organization who went after children with malicious intent. Blatant evidence that had people rallying to the GCPD to demand for justice. It was glorious and horrific—especially once they found out that it was Wraith who tossed the Joker into the harbor.

The Bats, by all means, attempt to find him. Figure him out, at least. But the man was a mystery. It was worse considering the majority of Gotham were eagerly telling the Bats to fuck off whenever they tried to hunt down Wraith. The only thing they ever got out of him was that his second in command—Phantom—was the nicer one between them. If you wanted civil negotiations, try and look for Phantom instead.

As much as they wanted to go directly to Wraith, this was their best shot. Their only shot.

"Had any luck finding Phantom?" Dick's hand rested on Tim's shoulder, trying to support his clearly tired brother. Tim was a little to determined, kinda desperate to find this guy.

"Nothing. Their names are trigger words." Tim clicked his tongue, "It's fucking up the system. Remember Ghostmaker's ghostnet? Any attempts makes you want to shut off your systems because of how encrypted they could get."

"Searching up their names gave the Batcomputer a virus?!" Steph gawked, leaning over Tim and staring at the computer. They could all tell he was wary, trying not to type in certain words to keep the damn tech sage from that mania.

"Wraith and Phantom are either metas with technology altering powers..." Barbara hums, "Or they have someone else doing this. Imagine them having their own version of the calculator... But worse and more annoying."

"So our new crime lord has a hacker... That has given the Batcomputer a virus." Dick slowly said, "And is still operating without us finding out."

"Hood and Robin are out trying to find Phantom." Barbara points to the two dots hurriedly moving through crime alley. "Hopefully they find him."

"Any news on Wraith?"

"His latest stint involved tearing down one of Black Mask's operations. Several bodies were found in the harbor."

"Why the harbor?"

"It's his MO, I think. It's always the harbor where he dumps the bodies."

Tim frowns, "Like it's his trash can.... For bodies."

"Hasn't the harbor always been the body trash can of Gotham?" Steph sighs, before turning away to stare at Cass who was training in the simulators again.

Dick glared at her for the comment but once again looked back to the screen.

"Hopefully they find Phantom soon... before Wraith drops more bodies."

Phantom was the nicer of the two—claimes by many people who told them Wraith was a little on the quieter side. No one truly knew but he was quieter than a lot of them.

Crime Alley was Red Hood's territory, everyone knew that. But apparently, Wraith has been operating in the same area from time to time. Mainly to return kids to the alley (freshly claimed by that flaiming white symbol). But Wraith did so quietly. They checked in from time to time to see if the kids were alright.

To be specific...

Phantom came to visit to see if the children they had returned and claimed were safe. Often coming with resources that he mainly reserved for the kids.

"Found him." Jason muttered, voice distorted through the modulator as he narrowed his eyes at the young man dressed in monochrome colors. His binoculars zeroed on the young man with white (seriously??) boots and gloves. The rest of his outfit was black, with a jacket still in monochrome colors. Jason frowned at the hood that covered his head.

"Let's go, Hood. Nightwing and father wants—"

"Stay out of it, Robin." Hood instantly growled. Jason has never felt so territorial before but this guy was in his territory—doing good, keeping the kids safe, marking them so no one tried going after them. "Phantom is Wraith's lieutenant. We don't need to make an enemy of the nicer one and piss of the one who ordered the explosion."

"I can handle him!"

"You'll piss him off!"

Robin scowled, crossing his arms over his chest. "And you won't? Phantom clearly is fond of children and I am a child—"

"With katanas. You're a murderous child. Wraith and Phantom claim children who are in danger. Not the danger." Jason scoffed, while Damian opted to look utterly smug at the statement.

"Stay here." Jason drops down from the building.

He, unfortunately, didn't account for Phantom pulling out a sword from nowhere and immediately pointing it at Jason. The kids behind the man were quick hide behind him, cowering in fear until the recognition sets in their eyes.

"Wait! That's the Red Hood!" A girl yells, standing between them. Stupid but very brave. "He's one of the good ones!"

Phantom, who wore a mask that covered half his face yet showed his eyes, immediately lowered his sword once the girl was between them.

Jason froze, unable to tear his gaze away from Lazarus eyes—no... That shade of green was much purer than the pits... Phantom narrowed his eyes at Jason, before turning back to the girl. "You go and take care of your little sister, yeah? If your mom forgets to feed you again, tell her I'll give her a visit."

The girl nods, but she whirled around and gave Jason the nastiest glare an 8-year-old could give. "You hurt mr. Phantom and I'll tell Wraith!" She pointed an accusing finger at him, frowning before she gives Phantom a quick hug and makes a run for it with the other kids.

Soon enough, they're left alone... Staring at one another.

"I was wondering when one of you Bats would finally find me." Phantom hums, sliding his hand over the hilt of his sword.

Jason warily watched it disappear from sight. Okay. Possible meta, definitely has powers. "You're a hard man to find, Phantom."

"Not for you, I guess. I come and go into your haunt to check in on the kids every week." Phantom laughs, tilting his head.

Jason could see snow white hair from under the hood, making him shudder as the deathly green eyes are brought back to his attention.

"Every week, huh?" Jason clicked his tongue. "I'll cut to the chase. Your boss's stint—" he swore that Phantom twitched "—pissed of the big Bat. He ain't happy tnag Wraith is bombing up buildings and killing people."

Phantom visibly rolled his eyes, "Too bad then. Wraith's pretty direct when it comes to this shit. Trafficking and pimping kids make him murderous but the fact that those bastards were killing them and selling their organs? He's damn genocidal at this point. Can't say I disagree with that."

Jason... Well... Jason can't argue with that. If he found out that some bastards were doing that to kids, he'd go ballistic too. But Bruce didn't agree with these methods and was rather reproachful about it. But Wraith wasn't going to back down. This wasn't a normal rogue that had felt fear of the Batman and his brood before. To be honest, Jason thinks he's pretty ballsy.

"I don't disagree with that shit either. But Batman ain't going to let him off the hook after that stunt." Jason warned, grunting as he spoke through the modulator. The pits were flaring up again. But not malicious, not murderous. It was curious as it warmed his chest and practically urged him to get closer to Phantom.

"Yes, well... Piece of advice—Wraith is willing to blow up an entire district if it meant keeping others safe. And besides, your rogues know not to mess with him. Not after the Joker." He didn't actually see Phantom's face but he's pretty sure that the bastard was grinning.

"So he really did it."

"If it makes you feel any better, the Joker might as well be cursing him from the afterlife. It was an accident." Phantom shrugged.

An accident, Jason breathed out. Holy fuck, that would have been humiliating for the Joker. His death. An accident. Unintentional and he still died, his body dumped into the harbor.

"Anyways, tell Batsy not to mess with the kids. I know he doesn't, but he let the Joker live, so..." Phantom gave him a thumbs up, "Make sure to not cross pass with Wraith or else you'll end up in the harbor."

Jason gawked, watching as Phantom slipped into the shadows and promptly disappeared. Meta. Definitely a meta.

"Hood, report." Batman's voice rang through the comms.

"Red Hood," he grunts, "Wraith sure as hell doesn't like you, old man. And Phantom might be the nice one but he might as well be as stabby as Robin."

"I agree with Hood. He has wonderful posture, father!" Robin spoke, sounding impressed and smug.

The little shit.

"Technus, stop bullying Oracle." Dan groaned once he caught the ghost tampering with the net... Again.

The crime lord turned towards Danny, who melted out of the shadows again. Technus was blabbering about pesky bats and birds before Dante clocked his younger brother's apprehension. He looked....annoyed and concerned.

"I talked to Red Hood."

"YOU WHAT?!"

"Fun fact! He's a revenant!"

"THE FUCK YOU MEAN THE OTHER CRIME LORD IS A REVENAN?!"

"A very sexy looking one."

He was going to punch Danny. He was going to fucking punch Danny.

(Danny was not punched.)

"He said that Batman's pissy about you blowing up shit." Danny shrugged, shaking his head before floating over to the energy drinks and coffees by Dan's desk. "Good news though! I told him he'd end up in the harbor if he ever tried anything with us."

Dan gawked, "What the fuck is wrong with you?! You want to make the bats our enemies?"

"No! I'm commiting to our crime family bit!"

"We're not a crime family!"

"Tell that to Ellie. She's already got herself a new suit and everything."

Dan threw his hands up in the air, groaning at the insanity that was his younger siblings. Dear ancients, he was praying that Jazz wouldn't find out about the shit they've done in Gotham. She'd give them the worst tongue lashing the world has ever experienced if she did. Thank God she was in Yale right now.

"Ooh! A crime family, you say?" Technus grinned, floating closer to Danny who lounged in Dan's chair. (Get the fuck away from my crime lord throne, Danny! The leather is expensive!)

"That is perfect! The others have decided to migrate here, did you know? It's been quite... Boring back in Amity." Technus snickered.

Fuck. No.

"I bet my trust from Vlad that Johnny, Kitty, and Ember are already on their way." Danny cackled, "That'd be nice. Elle's been itching to steal Johnny's bike again."

"Splendid! We shall wreck havoc upon Gotham and exact justice that the Bats cannot give the people!" And like a supervillain, Danny cackled as he stood on Dan's desk, laughing maniacally.

(Just outside, the Wraith's goons peaked into the room and saw the insanity that was the nice lieutenant's villainy.)

Meanwhile, in the distance, the laughter of Johnny 13 and Kitty rang through the streets of Gotham.

Officially announcing my upcoming novel- SPLICERS: THE RISING GODS

Chinese Mythology meets Cyberpunk 2077 in this sci-fi romance set in a dystopian, multi-tiered city state...

Chentang City is not a place of opportunity.

It's the kind of society where you are forever locked into whatever economic class you were born into; the majority of the population live in single room shacks with their entire families in the Outer Circle, those with something of a disposable income live in relative comfort in the Inter-Circle, and the richest of the rich live amongst the neon lit skyscrapers of Prime Island.

Nezha knew he was unlucky; being born in the Outer Circle was basically a sentence to an early death after a life spent toiling away in factories, manufacturing products he'd never be able to afford. However, his desire to climb the economic ladder was only outshined by his beauty, and that made him the perfect candidate to become a Rentboy. After finding some success at a brothel in the Inter-Circle, he's convinced he’s only one good night away from changing his family's lives forever.

However, everything goes to Hell when the brothel unexpectedly shuts down, and Nezha is forced to get in on heist to steal Xiandan; the hottest drug in the city that supplies both a euphoric high, and the potential to develop superhuman powers.

When things inevitably go wrong, Nezha finds himself gifted with more power than he could've ever imagined, and he comes to an intoxicating realization; the chance to change his life that he's always wanted? This is it, and he has no intention of wasting it. He’ll join forces with Yang Jian, the leader of a group of cyber-rebels called Ghostnet, and Ao Bing, the son of the CEO who practically owns the entire city. Together, they’ll fight to bring down Chentang City’s literal and metaphorical walls, while coming to realize that the connection they share might truly be the strongest force on the planet.

Tentatively Releasing 12/2/24!

Harley & Ivy in Batman: Ghost Stories (Part 1) - Summary & Excerpts

A continuation of my series of collecting summaries and excerpts of all the relevant comics leading up to the new solo run of Poison Ivy.

Batman #101 - Technically this is a coda to The Joker War arc called "After the Laughter." No Harley in this issue, but I will summarize relevant plot points. Batman meets with Lucius. When Catwoman stole Bruce's money back from the Joker, she put it all in Lucius' account. Lucius says he can't transfer it back to Batman, given the public scrutiny Bruce Wayne is now under for having all those offshore accounts (which he used to fund his Batman activities in secret). Lucius also says Wayne Enterprises wants Bruce to step down. Batman meets with Catwoman and tells her he's moving into a Brownstone in the city to run a leaner Batman operation from there, now that he doesn't have access to his fortune. He says he needs to take a break--her stealing from the Underbroker made her a target of every criminal in Gotham, and he can't have a close association with her while trying to rebuild what Batman means to the city. She says it will take one year for her to clean up the Underbroker mess, so they decide to be on a break, á la Rosa and Rachel of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Batman #102 - This mysterious new bad guy named Ghost-maker has a cop tied up and monologues about how he hates what Gotham has become, how he has his "ghostnet" program tapped into the police computers to analyze patterns of crime which he can then prevent, and how the one hole in the system is Clownhunter, a "child who you are allowing to do your dirty work for you." He wants to find the kid.

Batman is tracking down "Grinners," diehard joker minions who have partial facial paralysis due to prolonged exposure to the joker toxin, and the only group who didn't give up the ghost after Joker War ended. He bursts into a bar, trying to get to them before Clownhunter, only to find them all killed and Ghost-maker's mark on the wall. We get a flashback--Batman and Ghost-maker trained together as teenagers, but then Ghost-maker did something "unforgivable" to their master in Morocco. Back in the present, we see Harley trying to rent and apartment and shadowed by Clownhunter.

Before Clownhunter can attack Harley, Ghost-maker appears to kill Clownhunter, but then Batman appears to stop Ghostmaker. Ghostmaker says Batman isn't doing a good enough job cleaning up the streets of Gotham, and he says he'll fight Bruce for Gotham.

103 - Batman fights Ghost-makers and tells Clownhunter to run. We see Harley settling in to her apartment.

After taking out Harley with a tranq, Ghost-maker argues with Batman about he's doing a bad job of protecting the city and then takes HIM out with a tranq too.

#PoliticsIsInteresting Our oceans belong to every living organism on the planet. Our responsibility as Earth's most impactful species is to ensure that the ocean continues to be an environment where marine life can thrive. The indiscriminate nature of our industrial fishing methods and the careless equipment disposal contribute to tonnes of plastic floating in the ocean. Those nets, hooks and lines continue to harm life in all its forms. As always, it's important to take time to do your own research. And if you can, support the many organisations working to ensure a future where our oceans are teaming with life.

I discovered a ghost fishing net while walking at low tide along Brisbane River. It has been there for quite some time judging by the amount of algae growing over it.

The net stretches for approximately 20 to 30 metres along the beach and when the tide rolls back in, it poses potential threats to local boaties and wildlife. I reported the nets location to the QLD Boating & Fisheries Patrol who are going to collect it.

📡 GHOSTNET RECORDS TRANSMISSION

Artist: 51 Ghost Dogs Album: The Gentle Undoing Release Date: [Insert date] Label: Ghostnet Records Format: Digital Streaming: Available now on Spotify

—

"The gentle undoing begins not with a scream — but with a single howl."

Ghostnet Records is proud to announce the debut album from 51 Ghost Dogs, titled The Gentle Undoing — a faewave-coded collection of ritual folk-bass drawn from the liminal spaces between memory, myth, and modern collapse.

This 9-track offering is an elegy for forgotten Fae, for the quiet erosion of wildness, and for the long fade between worlds. Each track channels a fragment of post-Arcadian lore, carried through haunted melodies and fractured signal.

This is not revival. It is remembering.

A beautiful, festive reminder that entanglement remains an issue for cetaceans all year long. Around 640,000 tonnes of fishing gear is lost or abandoned worldwide each year, accounting for around 10 percent of all marine litter. Supporting sustainable fisheries is a great way to help ensure this number decreases. ⠀ You can help reduce marine debris by celebrating a sustainable holiday season and appropriately disposing of our waste all year long. Whether it's composting, recycling, or simply putting something in the garbage these small actions can have an exponentially big impact on our oceans. ⠀ #whaletales #talesofsavingwhales #greenchristmas⠀ Posted @withregram • @akris.painting ENTANGLED IN COSTA RICA • In collaboration with @innoceana 🐋 • I’m honoured to be able to raise awareness about this issue with my art.

Up to one million tons of fishing gear are lost in the ocean every year. According to the International Whaling Commission #IWC more than 300.000 #cetaceans die annually due to #entanglement in fishing gear. And they are not the only ones: sea turtles, sharks, rays, birds… and the list goes on.⠀ ⠀ @entangledincostarica @mcecinnoceana⠀ ⠀ #akris #akrispainting #akrisworld #ghostnetart #ghostnets #redesfantasma #costarica #humpbackwhale #yubarta #entangled #artivism #whaleart #artforconservation #marinelife #marinelifeconservation #watercoloranimal #watercolorart https://www.instagram.com/p/CXjTsWvsNTY/?utm_medium=tumblr

After spending last year filming a documentary about lost fishing nets and the devastation it creates to the local environment, finding this trap sitting right under the boat was quite alarming to me. We decided to have a closer look to make sure it wasn’t still ghost fishing.  Daena took her fins and a line, took a deep breath and descended to 70 feet. She tied the line to the trap and brought it up with our sailboat winch. Once we had it up to the surface we asked the local coast guard what we should do since it’s likely been abandoned for many years and still fishing. Sadly the Guadeloupe Coast Guard simply asked us to cut a whole through the netting and release it back in. There are currently no programs set in place for retrieval and disposal of lost fishing gear in the Caribbean.
