#red hood vs anarky

[dc-polls]

Alright, here it is, it's finally happening!

They Would Not Fucking Say That

~Final Round~

Beating out Batman killing police by running them over and Donna calling Jason "Re-Todd" we have...

Anarky Causes Violence with Fascists

From: Prelude to the Wedding: Red Hood vs. Anarky. New 52/Prime Earth(?)

Context: Anarky attempts to thwart Catwoman’s bachelorette party (it was a lead-up to the Bruce/Selina fail wedding) and Jason Todd attempts to stop him.

Teams up with fascists to ruin Selina’s outing by sowing violence, chaos, and destruction in a large crowd of people because the Joker played on his desire for a father figure.

VS

Jason Todd Prevents Vengeance

From: Red Hood and the Outlaws #34, The New 52

Context: Starfire tracks down the man who kept her as a slave for the purpose of killing him.

Jason convinces her to NOT kill the man.

So.. Now's your chance to decide.. Which character was more wronged? Who was the victim of the worst character assassination?

WHO WOULD NOT FUCKING DO THAT?!

Not him getting jealous of Dick's being called the hottest one, nooo

You are to me, bbg ❤️💖💕

[caitthecakeee]

just some observations idk 

the post

[benbamboozled]

I wish the tumblr tagging system a very eat bees.

[shahrwrites]

God, I love him he’s so unserious😭😭

I think,,, I think Bruce was actually considering it?😭

Also this:

He’s such a little shit to Bruce and I LIVE for that.

And by the way, he ends up preventing a bloodbath with this money. (Not that I’m exactly happy about the implications it had, but anyway.)

[The entire panel under the cut.]

[celaenaeiln]

do you have any recommendations for dick and jason (together or separate, both is fine) comics for someone who’s just starting to read them? i have some knowledge of the characters and batfam and i’ve read several batman comics, but i never really got into the robins-after-they-were-robins comis so i’d like to start with dick and jason…thank you so much :)

ok non-batman related stuff-

Nightwing

Nightwing 1996

Nightwing 2011

Nightwing 2016

Nightwing and Huntress (one of my favs)

Future State: Nightwing

Batman/Nightwing: Bloodborne

Batman: Prelude to the Wedding: Nightwing vs. Hush

Red Hood

SKIP Red Hood and the Outlaws! Do NOT read. You won't miss anything but butchered characterizations that wipe away decades of character building anyway because DC creators were so disgusted by the comic, that nothing that ever happens in it is ever remotely referenced by any other comic. Which is HIGHLY unusual because there's usually tie-ins but this was so bad it has been collectively ignored by virtually the entirety of DC. Please don't read Arsenal/Red Hood for Roy's sake. He is way more than that. It's just so frustrating because the three comics were supposed to be one of the main comics for him but Scott Lobdell does such a fantastic job desecrating people that there aren't a lot of other good comics focused solely on Jason Todd to read.

Read-

Red Hood: The Lost Days

Batman: Under The Red Hood

Task Force Z

Teen Titans: Life And Death

Batman: Prelude to the Wedding: Red Hood vs. Anarky

Batman Eternal

Okay as someone who only tangentially knows about nightwing, I enjoyed the grayson series. I'm a whole-ass lesbian but watching him walk shirtless through a desert carrying a baby? I suddenly understood the whole "being straight" thing. Grayson cured my heterophobia lololol.

ANYWAYS it seems like you've actually read other nightwing comics so I was wondering what your take on the grayson series is? Is it OOC? If not, do you have any other comic recs where I can 👀 that 🍑?

Lol I actually haven’t read Grayson! Because…lol, okay, THIS IS STUPID I AM FULLY AWARE OF THAT, but because I resent the idea that Dick Grayson needed a series where he’s ALSO a super cool hot spy who’s a badass hot spy. ~~~OOOOH GOOD FOR YOOOOOU!!!!~~~

(Yes this is one of my personal foibles, sometimes I resent things for existing because I am odd and petty.)

I’ve thought about reading it for The Pretty, but I know certain fandom circles are, uh…less than enthusiastic about it, and certain other character fans are less than enthusiastic about it (*cough* Midnighter), so I just haven’t decided that I’m open to potentially being grumpified in favor of The Pretty yet.

Basically, I absolutely cannot speak on how IC or not it is. 🙃 I do know that I’ve read two things by Tim Seeley—one I like that a lot of people don’t (Robins) and one that was ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS LIKE TERRIBLE ON EVERY POSSIBLE LEVEL GAG VOMIT UGGGHHHH (Countdown to the Wedding: Red Hood vs Anarky—do not punish yourself with this it is so bad).

Sooooo I have no idea what that says about whether or not I’d appreciate Grayson!

Honestly, though, my Dick Grayson absorption is all over the map, so I’m not so much a great person to give recs I think.

Like, my foundational Dick run (hm) was Devin Grayson’s Nightwing run and, uh, that run is CONTROVERSIAL (to put it mildly), for some reasons that I agree with and some that I don’t. It also left me with a…very particular set of preferences when it comes to Dick Grayson In Comics.

(You know how 1984 starts with “imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever”? Yeeeeeahhhh.)

If you’re in just for the pretty, the current Nightwing run—Leaping Into the Light (kind of a soft-reboot of the premise starting with #78 of the 2016 run)—is REALLY gorgeous. Like…wow. Not so much on a beefcake level necessarily, but like…gorgeous man f-i-n-g-e-r-s-t-r-i-p-e-s acrobatics long legs strong back mmmmmmmm. (I cannot be more coherent than that, just…guh.)

(I do NOT keep up with this book for the plot. The plot is…sigh. Lackluster. And the characterization is…kind of generic. AND IT TOOK NIGHTWING #93—A CONTROVERSIAL YET IMO GROUNDBREAKING ISSUE—AND BASICALLY RE-DID IT IN A WAY I FIND FRANKLY PRETTY OFFENSIVE BOTH TO STORYTELLING IN GENERAL AND THE WAY IT TREATED THE ISSUES ORIGINALLY HANDLED IN THE COMIC. ANYWAY like I said, I’m shallow and into it for the pretty pictures. Also it’s DC, and my evergreen tag “comics are bad and I hate them” is evergreen for a reason.)

I’m certain that other people who follow me have better recs/suggestions, so if anyone who follows me has insight on Grayson or feelings about good Nightwing runs for (*cough*) 🍑-purposes and wants to chime in, feel free! Reblog, reply, whatevs!

(Just, you know…if you have STRONG feelings, try to remember the “don’t yuck someone’s yum” principle. Criticism/analysis+discussion is great, but I try to keep things not suuuuper OTT negative. I don’t want anyone to feel bad about liking things.)

(No yucking anyone’s yum unless it’s Tim Seeley writing Red Hood vs. Anarky. I will never be nice about that comic and nobody can make me.)

Hopefully you’ll get some better info, anon!
