🎉 Happy Dick Day: A Celebration of Gotham's Favorite 🍆
April 6th is officially the Day of the Penis.
So naturally, we—the Batfam enthusiasts, the Grayson Nation, the Nightwing scholars—gather in reverence to honor our Dick.
Yes. That Dick. Richard John Grayson. The first Robin. The original Boy Wonder. The man with the most iconic ass in comics and a name that writes its own jokes. 🦸♂️💦
Look, we could use today to talk about biology, reproductive health, awareness and all that important stuff (please do!), but in this little corner of fandom? It’s about celebrating the man who turned being called Dick into a symbol of agility, compassion, leadership, and thiccness.
Let’s talk facts:
🥇 He’s Batman’s first success story. 🍑 He’s canonically hot. Like, universally acknowledged hot. 🛏️ In most timelines, everyone wants to sleep with him. Including but not limited to: Kori, Babs, Helena, Wally, even a couple of villains — Slade 👀 — and aliens. 🩳 He’s been objectified in-universe more times than we can count. (Looking at you, Blüdhaven.) 👀 He jumps, flips, kicks, and quips while maintaining peak fanservice.
But it’s not just about the visuals. Dick Grayson is the heart of the Batfamily, the bridge between light and shadow. The one who saw Bruce's darkness and chose to still laugh, still love, still lead. The Dick that healed Gotham not with fear, but with empathy. The Dick we all deserve.
So yes, today is the Day of the Penis. But more importantly… it’s another day for Dick appreciation.
✨ Long live the king of flips, thighs, and emotional maturity. ✨ Happy Dick Day, everyone. Go read a Nightwing comic. Or five.
🧠 And a friendly PSA: Use a condom to keep it safe. Now we know that many cancers come from viruses—many of them transmitted via STIs. Safe Dick is happy Dick.
