I'm still can't understand why they are hiring people that are not interested in the universe and characters. The hell are you saying that you hadn't had read anything but gonna write smth that would be in the main timeline??
DC hiring interested in your universe, story and characters writers so they do not fuck up your characters even more WHEN????
Ugh, I'm not a fan of Huntress(nothing on her, that's just me) but I'm not gonna take anything fucked up that she may say or do in this person's work. Jason is already butchered and shown as some 40+ alcoholic without any sense of style, so no hope for him I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
re: thoughts on the new red hood book
it’s never a good thing when huntress is thrust into the hands of someone who lacks 1.) prior knowledge of her and 2.) the desire to write her.

editorial mandates always spell misfortune for the huntress.
and the decision to not read any of her past appearances will lead to further mischaracterization. this approach may work for someone like jason todd, who dc has been struggling to find consistency with for quite some time now, but it doesn���t apply to helena bertinelli. her portrayals have been largely congruous, save for a few poor decisions throughout rebirth. nothing that would be fixed by entirely overhauling the status quo.
also, i want to add: helena is literally defined by her independence — at times, to a fault — and while she often strives for the approval of others, she is by no means grappling for the reassurance of someone like jason todd in order to function as an individual.


while i do agree, to some extent, with that final assertion, she’s most definitely not “at a loss”. she has her mission: protecting the vulnerable. she had her support system: the birds of prey, tim drake, etc. she’s continually stripped of those things and, as a result, reduced to the supporting role of men who lack consistency in their own characterization.
i don’t understand dc’s insistence to place her alongside jason. we very well may have seen her on the current birds of prey roster had she not already been “spoken for” per one of thompson’s responses. (disregarding thompson’s initial hesitation to include her, which i was disappointed by). this pattern leaves anyone tasked with writing helena unable to move forward. it’s repetitive stagnation due to narrative negligence, and it’s easily avoidable.
just for emphasis: the huntress as an alias was adopted to be a symbol of strength and resilience for helena to oppose those who enact violence on vulnerable populations — primarily the mob. felker martin is correct in that assessment, however, helena doesn’t lack the direction that jason does. it’s kind of ironic considering she would only lack direction due to appearances like these. her agency is yet again being undermined to uplift dc’s man of the week. that’s where my main frustration lies.
i get that this was just a casual interview, but i am tired of this bitter cycle 🫠 it’s infinitely disappointing to see your fave relegated to the background and burdened with issues she didn’t previously have, which are then left unaddressed by authors who don’t care for her as anything but an extension of the men she’s surrounded by.
#helena bertinelli#huntress#jason todd#red hood#dc comics#dc#DC doesn't give a frozing hell about logic and sequence in the story so they hire people who dgf about what they're going write about

I cannot explain the anger I feel anytime I read a panel where a character we are supposed to side with (except Bruce, because he's a self-loathing champion) says that Bruce should never be a father.
Batman, Bruce Wayne, was created in 1939, and he didn't even last two years before his creator gave him a child. In his long existence, Batman has only existed for LESS THAN TWO YEARS before he was made a father. Dick wasn't adopted because of the laws at the time against bachelor adopting, but Bruce was clear in the comics that this was his son. Old comics are a bit silly at time, and abuse was acceptable parenting in this time period (spanking and slapping, which Dick has been the subject of both), but it's clear that Bruce is meant to be a loving father. Dick is his pride and joy. If anything happens to him, Bruce is threatening everyone. He will kill everyone in the room than himself if his boy dies. He has huge paintings and pictures of the boy in and out of costume around his house because he loves him so much. When Dick is mad and threatens to leave, Bruce is like "I would prefer to lose both my arms and legs than lose you".
And it continued after that. When Dick leaves for college, Bruce is acting like it's a funeral. He's a dad realizing his baby is all grown up now and leaving home, and it's breaking his heart. He cried when child protective service took Dick from him, and when they took Jason. Both time, which are separated by decades, he was willing to throw away everything he had just to get his son back. Dick was the center of his universe, and with Jason, it was extended to his kids in general.
Batman, Bruce Wayne, being a dad is as important to his character as the murder of his parents. It's him learning to move on from this traumatic event, building a new family after losing his, giving children what he didn't have. It's linked to his parent's murder. If you are going to take that away, you can take away their murder too while you're at it.
This man would not survive without being a father, that's how he was written. It's a core characteristic of his character. Bob Kane is rolling in his grave from the audacity of those writers. "Batman shouldn't be a father" in your dreams, which are my nightmares.
#batman#bruce wayne#dc comics#“the robins are just soldiers in his war against crime” tell me you do not understand the character of Bruce Wayne without telling me

there’s not enough fic about the angst (and humor) of Jason borrowing or having to borrow Bruce’s clothes because they’re the closest in size out of anyone else in the Batfamily.
option 1: Jason gets injured as Red Hood, someone finds him while on patrol and brings him back to the Cave. he wakes up in Bruce’s clean clothes and is disgusted (angsty)
option 2: Jason borrows Bruce’s clothes and wears them right in front of him to try and provoke a reaction (hilarious)
option 3: Jason needs black tie attire and Alfred promises him something “absolutely fitting.” it’s one of Bruce’s suits, but no one mentions that to him until Bruce’s eyes bug out (angsty but could be played for humor depending on Jason’s mental state that week)
Bruce puts his suit jacket around adult Jason to warm him up. it fits perfectly. (100% hilarious AND sad)

Bruce: your anger at the joker is only a blunt instrument like the CROWBAR that VIOLENTLY MURDERED YOU WITH
Jason: *pauses mid shoot and blinks* what
Bruce:
Jason: I need you to reflect on what you just said
Bruce: hn
Jason:
Bruce:
Jason:
Jason, suddenly animated: LIKE YOU KNOW! WELL YOUR OBSESSION WITH YOUR MISSION IS JUST MECHANICAL INSTRUMENT, LIKE THE GUN THAT VIOLENTLY KILLED YOUR PARENTS IN FRONT OF YOU!!
Jason, eyebrows raised: do you understand what you sounded like just then
Bruce:
Jason: I actually had a full plan and everything but I don’t think I can continue with it. Plans are cancelled. I need you to take 2-3 business days to sit with what you just said. I’m going home. I need a beer. Maybe another lobotomy.
Bruce: …
Jason, getting up and shaking his head, holstering his gun: I’m not mad. Just disappointed.

Salarian Fashion! 💙👽
A shame BioWare missed out on the fashion for their aliens. I kept their humid environment in mind when designing these, and used colors as vibrant as their skin! Soon, I’d like to try my hand at the other species. Saw you guys liked my other salarian art 💜

Awkward and crazy MCs are always the adorable ones^^
I want to find an additional part-time job, cuz my day job gives me money for existing, not for living a life and experiencing things. I want to save money!!! To travel!!! I always heard „efforts pay off” and it never worked for me. I worked really hard so I could expect the job I wanted, the rise in scholarship for my scientific activity, etc., but in the end of the day it turns out I am never enough for the things I’ve been dreaming of for a really long time.
I feel like I need a kind of quantitative indicator to measure the way I have to make to get something. Not “be a straight A+ student”, “write an article” and so on. Quantitative indicators can be applied to this stuff as well though. But there is no guarantee your grades or scientific papers will provide you a place under the sun (personal trauma…). Money is something I can count, see and touch. Now I’m in my villain era!!! I’m focusing on money!!! To save for my travel plans!!!
