OH GOD OH FUCK
this is my first instance seeing robin-jason todd. this is horrifying
Could anyone tell me how old at least one of the Batboys (jason, tim, dick, duke, damian) were when Alfred died, or if any of them didn’t exist? I’m blending new and old comics for my writing and I’m having continuity errors.
TIMBIT CHAPTER 7 (timbits are individual oneshots)
Tim is dying of The Clench.
His condition is rapidly decreasing and Alfred doesn't know how he, Dick, or Bruce will ever be able to handle another loss.

i’m mighty proud of this one :D
some more okay-dad!jack drake for you
i dont know if anyone finds jack drake as interesting as i do, but his relationship with tim really draws me in.
even without tim as robin, there is still something drawing them apart, like a mutual misunderstanding between the two. jack acts boarderline selfish in his raising of tim, but he's also grieving in the same way bruce and tim are.
instead of solving the root of the problem (even if tim would have nearly never caved), he sends his son away to cause trouble out of jack's sight. obviously, the writers had to do this for the sake of the story, but its still very sad.
people who blindly hate jack drake either see him hitting too close to home or haven't truly read him enough, and that makes me a little sad.
luckily theyre just comic books lmao
everybody deserves bart. his interactions are hilarious and interesting. it's such a delicate balance, and it's done fabulously
(also, the artists in the second one did a fantastic job at making him still look like an adorable goof, but still a teenager. love it)
IT IS CANON THAT JACK TECHNICALLY FORGOT ABOUT TIM'S BIRTHDAY. but also TIM forgot about tim's birthday
dont worry, he gets a happy ending (for now)
This is monstrous. What she is proposing is a literal crime against humanity.
No exaggeration. No hyperbole. One of the justices of the Supreme Court is proposing that the country should violate human rights en masse.
not a clue! that certainly makes more sense, though. im just going off of this
dick and tim gossiping about bruce. neither of them considered bruce as their dad; more like the weird younger uncle who used to babysit them
you know, realistically, tim brings up a good point. i mean, he wasn't just a lonely child boo hoo or anything, it's implied that his only present family would up and leave semi frequently to the point that it was normalized for tim, who has a VERY strong moral compass.
this panel sequence is just... so much. first of all, it hits the awkward part of tim drake just right. deny it all you want, the boy blurts dumb shit kinda often lol.
then, there is the bond between the two boys. they may not be bruce's sons at that point, but they certainly do act like brothers. plus, that connection to bruce that tim has. man, it produces some good angst.
BAM. comic book proof of tim being left alone. i will never doubt another fanfic writer again. okay, that's a lie.
anyone else laughing at how tim's age makes zero sense?
can you imagine working with someone who you've idolized since the age of seven and have them not smile at you for months? smiling is like the bare minimum for any friendliness or openness whatsoever. i doubt he literally never smiled, but what tim says suggests that the environment wasn't quite easy for a while.
also tim being starved for praise is always what i wanna see. sorry fluff fans.
it is obligation. it's unhealthy and destructive, but it's his obligation.
nice
steph at it again. you know, being her. confident. smooth.
i used to blog about comic books, but my latest project has been selling my cute lil stickers!
