DC Characters As Actual Things My Family Has Said: Part 2

I guess no one ever accused the kid literally named Impulse of thinking too hard, but I like how he sees the villain making a motorcycle getaway and was like "it's a real headscratcher. How am I, Bart Allen, grandson of the Flash and Speed Force user going to catch up with her... oh, I know!" and then he steals a car despite not knowing how to drive.

Post- Robin face reveal but pre-Robin identity reveal, Kon sees Tim among the hostages of an armed bank robbery he just thwarted in Metropolis. He flies over to him fully intending on making fun of him for getting caught up in it.

“Hey, Rob…” realizes a second too late that Robin isn’t alone and he’s about to blow his secret identity in front of… Bruce freaking Wayne?? “…ing. Robbing. You. Yeah, um. Im robbing you.”

Tim blinks incredulous, “What?”

“Yeah, I’m robbing you right now,” Kon says, committing to this decision. “Gimme your wallet or I’ll… I’ll beat you up with my tactile-telekinesis. You too, Mr Wayne.”

It’s kind of a constant topic of discussion that the Robins look similar, but what I think is really interesting is the effort the artists put into there designs so that they look similar alone, but totally distinguishable when they’re next to each other. (this doesn’t include steph obviously or damian because he was made to look like Bruce and talia)

Dick, for instance, clearly has the straightest hair as well as lighter eyes than Jason, but darker eyes than Tim (that sounds a bit fickle but trust, you’ll understand when you see the two of them). His nose is also very clearly straighter and narrower than the other two.

Jason, on the other hand easily has the curliest hair out of the three and his eyes are the darkest blue. His nose is also the widest of the three.

Finally Tim who has the waviest (i’m not totally sure how to describe his hair) out of the three. His eyes are also very clearly the lightest and he has a much smaller button nose (this is probably due to his age but it’s still a nice distinction)

I think it’s super interesting how they chose to do this because it allows each Robin to feel like a separate character, but the second they put on the costume they all become the same Robin everyone knows and loves. Idk i just think it’s neat

yep! I took them all from Jason’s death and Tim’s introduction

DC as actual things my friends have said: Part 2

~

Dick: Woah! What’s with the face?

Jason: It’s Bruce. He never leaves me alone! I swear he’s so far up my ass I can feel him in my ovaries

Dick: You don’t have ovaries?

Jason: Exactly

~

Tim:

~at 3 in the morning~

Tim: Did you know that only 5% of the ocean has been uncovered? For all we know, there could wild JoJo Siwas in the ocean

Kon: And she attacks your boat and violently humps you

Bart: Or there could be glowing squids! That’d be pretty cool

Cassie: Have any of you ever heard of inside thoughts??

~

Tim: Why are you crying!? What’s wrong?!?

A very pregnant Stephanie: Sometimes when my eyes get lonely I cry because they’re friends with my tears :(

Tim:

Ever be having a good day and then you remember when Pony really starts to think about Randy as another person. How his best friend was killed - how a person would react to that

How he thinks of Soda and Steve who were best friends since practically diapers. Soda would want to stop fighting but Steve would only fight with more hatred — we can only imagine how Bob would be but likely even worse.

batmans children: *suffer the horrors*

batman: how can i make this about me

whether it was intentional or not, I will always think about bart allen being coded as a neurodivergent foster kid. he’s “different” and “weird” and can’t focus on school, he doesn’t get people or their rules, very clearly ADHD, is constantly shuttled from home to home because nobody in his family really wants him or knows how to deal with him, he’s too much -

in my ideal world there was a second yj98 spinoff comic that ran in 2003 called "saint elias" that is gotham academy-esque and followed the adventures of newly-humanified greta and recently-retired anita as they joined saint elias school for girls alongside cissie and traya

I am definitely going to be posting more about this >:) potentially even with a fic series if I can get my shit together heart emoji
