Some old never posted sketches of a homebrewed Batman AU I was crafting alchemy-like by taking my favorite aspects of each incarnation and putting them in a blender until smooth and emulsified.
I know for sure that now, after I read it, I totally agree with you statement about Bruce being trash.
Guys, I was poking fun at the inconsistency of how he's written. The recent comics have sucked (no spoilers if you really wanna venture into it), but I would not be here if I didn't like the central part of the batfamily. Bruce Wayne is a great character to work with but the problem is that many writers focus on the wrong aspects of what makes him a hero. They see his past and his fighting prowess and treat that as his whole character. I fell in love with Bruce because of the canon moments where we see him be vulnerable, heal, and learn to be loved—it's what highlights the theme of him being just a man among gods, not the fact that he fights without superpowers.
I would actually kind of like the “becomes a doctor and takes over Leslie’s clinic” story…for Damian.
NOT because I think it would be ~ethical~ or idk whatever-the-fuck.
I just really love the concept of Damian having this “I HAVE A BIG IMPORTANT DESTINY” backstory/lineage/bloodline …
…SON OF THE BAT, and all that jazz…
But when he connects with Gotham and the people in it—because Batman should be connected to the people he’s protecting—Damian realizes that he doesn’t actually WANT “his” destiny.
And it’s not about rejecting Batman or his father or his mother or anything like that, but instead about taking what he’s learned and what they’ve given him and shaping it to fit himself.
Showcasing art from some of my favourite artists, and those that have attracted my attention, in the field of visual arts, including vintage; pulp; pop culture; books and comics; concert posters; fantastical and imaginative realism; classical; contemporary; new contemporary; pop surrealism; conceptual and illustration.
You know, seeing how’s there’s been not one, but two franchises that dressed their main duo as Batman/Joker, it makes me wonder what other franchises should do this
Or alternatively, this happens:
