artemis is a leader and mentor and the fact that she had her bonds with diana and cassie wiped away in the new 52 and rebirth is deeply saddening. she was training cassie all throughout her amazon basic training and made a joint decision with diana about progressing her forward after she defeated devastation

artemis still not being restored fully ten years after rebirth is just so frustrating and disheartening. dc really doesnt care about their female characters at all

Summary:
Black leaned closer. ‘Do you like it when older men tell you what to do?’
‘I like it when old men spend money on me. Can we talk about business?’
Red Robin looks for an investor to fund the new iteration of the Teen Titans team.
New Cocaineland chapter is out! More coke, badly thought out decisions, and sickening amounts of money being spent on the world’s worst superhero team. Have fun & don’t forget to read the content warnings in fic notes.
“dammit harper stand still” always kills me like can you stop squirming around while i try to beat the dogshit out of you ? you’re actually being super inconsiderate right now.
elaborating a little: i think this idea works best if tim can actually stop looping (by riding one timeline out and continuing it) any time he likes. because. like. even from an abstract perspective this is an interesting ethical dilemma for a superhero, right. infinite crisis is an extremely complex event where a lot of things happen in a short amount of time. people die. many others suffer. reality is straight up rewritten. if you can rerun this extremely complex event as many times as you want, does that then create the obligation for you to seek the best possible outcome? what is the best possible outcome, in this case? how do you know when you've found it? how do you know when you can stop? what if there's something else you can do? how do you know when you can stop? how do you know when you can stop? how do you know when you can stop?
and of course this isn't really an abstract ethical dilemma for tim because of. you know. who dies in infinite crisis. winks cutely
obsessed with how in supergirl 2026 the trope was changed from grumpy man finding and then begrudgingly adopting a teenage girl to a grumpy woman begrudgingly adopting a teenage girl
okay, so let's break down whatever this monstrosity is.
"I was only ever a tourist in her world" could not be a more inaccurate statement. if you've read any comic involving talia and bruce's relationship from the 70s-90s, you'd know they were obsessed with each other. while they had their flaws, it was a genuine, mutual relationship
"...and an unwilling one at that." aaand this is the magnum opus of this panel. we all know the retcon and how the fandom (and apparently authors) treats it. putting that phrase in any context with talia & bruce is like asking for people to take it and run with the "oh, it's canon again, let's all hate her now" or something along those lines. now, having that on its own just brought up would've been bad enough, but putting it directly above an illustration of the two of them clearly being intimate is like pulling the pin to a hand grenade.
"all steeped in her unorthodox cultural traditions" holy anti/arabphobia. the concept of this line even being thought of, let alone being written, making it past editorial, and being published. but then again, it's DC, so i'm not surprised.
"convinced his presence in my life would destroy me, she threw him [damian] in my lap." honestly, this may be one of the worst things ever written. the entire reason she sent him was to keep him safe and so damian could meet his father. could she have had other motives? yeah, maybe, but it wasn't to destroy bruce's life, nowhere near that extreme.
"... and ran away laughing." while i'm sure this is hyperbole, and she didn't literally walk away laughing, by saying that, implies she took pleasure in just dropping damian off with bruce and found it amusing. which, again, could not be any further away from the truth as this was one of the most difficult decsions she ever made + one of her biggest regrets. and due to the wording it implies she could basically care less about damian and just dropped him off without a second look, again could not be an even falser statement
"it became my job to both dismantle that time bomb, and to make it stronger." ah yes because the feral child will learn how to control himself, all thanks to his white father, after living with his arab maternal side for the first ten years of his life, yes, yes, exactly. and the whole "make it stronger" bit is so odd because you want to dismantle, which the definition of dismantling is: "to take apart a machine or structure so that it is in separate pieces." OR "to end an organization or system by gradually in an organized way." (oxford dictionary)
so you want to take what he learned from the league apart and just essentially reteach him? pick and choose what "pieces" from his time in the league he gets to keep and use while being robin? you do you ii guess.
now the big thing is, well, he would not fucking say that. bruce genuinely loved talia to the point he had her scent memorized. he respected her AND ra's. no way would he be caught dead talking about her or damian for that matter like this.
moral of the story, this whole thing is orientalist, and rascist. also i take back what i said about how talia fans have been eating lately. we are in fact on the edge of being sent back to purgatory & it was fun while it lasted.
It’s summer, the Teen Titans have just reformed after graduation day and between learning to be a team there is a moment of peace to mourn. Cassie helps Kori harvest honey for the first time since Donna passed.
