hey it’s me from the Batman posts! (the one that left the tags abt wanting to get into Batman but having no clue where to start)
If its not too much trouble, I’d love any advice on where to start with Batman or Batfam(?) stuff, I saw someone suggest reading the Batman: Wayne Family Adventures thing on webtoon as an intro to the characters so I’ve been doing that, but I’ve got no clue about any of the official comics or shows/movies/etc. I’ve never read a comic series before so everything is super new to me.
I know different series(?)/versions(?) can be wildly different bc of different writers and stuff, I definitely trust your taste on what would be good / enjoyable bc the posts you’ve been reblogging are like 90% of whats gotten me interested in the first place
Thank you, and absolutely no rush!!
Hey I am legit SO happy that you sent me this ask this is literally my favorite thing to do!!!!
So to start with I do actually agree that wfa is a good starting point but for a different reason than I feel most people would recommend it. The thing about wfa is that it has a consistent design for every character, is humorous, touches not only on the main batfamily members but also many extended members, other noteworthy people in Gotham, and the batfamily's cast of friends and teammates as well. This means that while its approach to characterization is incredibly fanon-y, it's a good basis for how to continue. You read wfa, and you know that Dick is the first robin, wears ridiculous costumes, was batman for a bit, is nightwing, part of the teen titans... this isn't a lot, but it's just enough to orient yourself before jumping into some of the most convoluted art ever created, aka the comic world.
Another tip I'm gonna give you is to let yourself be confused. I think the people who end up sticking with comics are people who are aware that if they pick up a comic it's very likely the writers and artists have read and worked on comics that you haven't read yet or even heard of, so you're always going to be missing something. That's fine. If something is really important to the plot, it gets explained; if it's not, it's windowdressing. Often there'll be little boxes saying what comic and issue they're referencing, so if you find it interesting you can just go read it - otherwise, if it's not there, you can google it, or go to any comic fan and ask "hey do you know what this is about?" and if they know, they will answer. There is nothing a comic fan wants more than to explain how to get into their favorite character/s, trust me.
Anyway this has been a very wordy intro but here are some potential starting points for the batfamily!
Bruce Wayne
You know who he is. Pick up an issue of Batman or Detective Comics and he's there. Pick up an issue of any other DC comic and there's like a 30% chance he's there too.
Batman: The Long Halloween
Noir style, investigative, early in batman's career, two face's origin story
It has a sequel-ish story called Batman: Dark Victory that's almost as good
Batman: Hush
Batman: Year One
Frankly there's not going to be much information in this comic you don't already know, but also, it's a classic, so might as well
Batman: A Death in the Family & Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying (crossover with the new teen titans)
First story is Jason's death, second is Tim's introduction and arguably the start of the batfamily being a family
Tim drags Dick back into the fray in ALPOD. It's just sort of the kind of thing he does
Do NOT confuse A Death in the Family with Death OF the Family, which is a much newer story, and Not Good
Batman: Under the Red Hood
Jason's villain arc! More details below
Batman himself isn't actually my favorite but you know he's got some decent stuff since he's, uh, the main character. DC doesn't have a multiverse the way Marvel does - and getting into that would be a whole separate ask - but their elseworlds are stories about the characters in different situations. Some ones I've heard good things about include Gotham by Gaslight, Dark Knights of Steel, Batman: Last Knight on Earth, and I keep meaning to get into Batman: White Knight, which is a whole other universe on its own. I've been trying to get into more modern batman stuff and unfortunately I just haven't clicked with anything.
Dick Grayson
Guy has been in a lot of things. If you read a random Batman comics from before 1980, there's a good chance he'll be there.
Teen Titans and The New Teen Titans and Titans (1980s-2000s)
I haven't read enough of these to say much of anything, but he's a founding member of the TT
Nightwing
His post-Robin superhero identity. At first only present in NTT and occasional Batman comics, but eventually he gets his own miniseries in the early 90s, followed by an ongoing. Recently-ish started reading them and they're angsty and very 90s in a lot of ways but I'm enjoying it
Modern Nightwing titles also exist. For sure.
Batman & Robin by Morrison
In one of DC's ten million crises, Bruce "dies", and after a short story called Battle for the Cowl, Dick ends up becoming Batman. Damian is his Robin. It's an interesting time for batman comics, although not necessarily the best writing that Dick has ever gotten.
Batman: The Dark Mirror
Also a great story for the Gordons. Bruce is back from the dead, but Dick is still Batman in Gotham. This was my first even Batman comic and it's really good.
Obviously there's other stories, such as Grayson, where he becomes a super spy for a bit. There's a million and a half reading lists for Dick out there as he's a massively popular character and he's one of the characters DC is pushing the most right now. As with all the rest of these, these are good entry points; from there I trust you to find your way
Barbara Gordon
The original Batgirl, sort of (nobody really brings up bette kane unless they're pointing out that babs wasn't the original Batgirl, she's just not important). She appears sporadically in silver and bronze age batman comics and detective comics, but she quits being Batgirl shortly before being raped and shot in the spine by the joker in Batman: the Killing Joke, which I purposefully did not put on my rec list.
Birds of Prey
Babs-as-Oracle at her best.
Batman: The Dark Mirror
Babs' long lost brother comes back to town. It's fucked up.
I've been reliably told to stay away from her Batgirl runs - most people who are a fan of the character don't like that they retconned Oracle away and it's mostly not very well written. There's a comic called batgirls that lasted about a year that included her, and it's okay.
Jason Todd (my beloved)
MY MAN
Batman: Second Chances
Collected edition of Jason as Robin, so much fun. Extremely silly at times since it's the 80s.
Batman: A Death in the Family
For obvious reasons.
Then he's just sort of dead for 17 years. He shows up in heaven in a Green Arrow issue and is occasionally brought up or shown as a hallucination, but that's about it.
Batman: Under the Red Hood
There's a new crime lord in town and he's so smart and talented and hot omg I wonder who he is!!!!
The collected edition also comes with the annual that reveals how he came back to life
Task Force Z
This shouldn't be as good as it is.
Jason gets recruited to work with a team of undead villains
Jason gets called a hot a bunch of times, and is shirtless a lot. This doesn't matter but you know, like, yeah it does.
For Robin!Jason there's also Batman: The Cult - which I finally got my hands on recently but haven't read yet. For Red Hood!Jason there's lots of stuff, but most of it isn't very good or is actively bad. Most people will tell you to stay away from Red Hood and the Outlaws, and they're right, although the 2016 run is better. Most people will tell you to read Batman & Red Hood: Cheer, and they're wrong, it's ass.
Tim Drake
Frankly this boy has no flops. Or very close to it.
Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying
Tim figured out who Batman and Robin are at AGE NINE. Respect.
After this he appears in various Batman and detective comics issues, I haven't read any of these.
Robin
The first Robin to get his own ongoing! Like with Nightwing, it started with a miniseries (a few of them, actually) and got turned into a long running series from there. Lasted like 200 issues, too.
Tim FUCKS.
Not Steph's first appearance, but most of her appearances pre-2009 are in this series.
Young Justice 1998
It's insane in all the best ways. Cars have sex on panel. They play baseball to save the world on an alien planet. A power of friendship speech prevents the end of the world. In the first issue, a woman develops breasts so big she falls on her face.
This team eventually breaks apart and Tim along with 3 other teen heroes nicknamed the core four (Superboy, Impulse, & Wonder Girl II) become part of Teen Titans 2003, which I haven't read and is also a bit of a flop era fashion wise for everyone anyway. I do have the volume of TT03 where they meet the versions of themselves from the future and I plan on reading that soon-ish.
In the mid 2000s basically everyone Tim loves dies. Steph died in 2004 ish after a very short stint as Robin. Tim's mom dies, then his dad is murdered, and it's unclear what happened to his step mom, but she was in Bludhaven, which had an atomic bomb dropped on it. Impulse becomes kid flash becomes the flash becomes murdered, and superboy gets killed while saving the world. Steph does turn out to not be dead after all and Impulse and Superboy come back from the dead eventually but by God he's having a tough year BEFORE Bruce "dies".
Red Robin 2009
After Bruce "dies" and Dick becomes Batman, Dick makes Damian his Robin and nobody believes Tim that Bruce is still alive, so he steals the Red Robin costume and goes on a mission to save his dad!
Not a comic to read first because it's so uncharacteristic of Tim as a person, but definitely something to read as soon as possible, because it's ridiculously good.
After flashpoint/n52 Tim doesn't have his own ongoing for a while, but he does come out as bisexual in an early issue of Batman Urban Legends (2021) and he got his own ongoing called Tim Drake: Robin in 2022 which was ugly AF and yet cancelled far too soon. There's a Young Justice run from 2019 I haven't read yet.
Stephanie Brown
For her I would go to Google, bc I haven't gone down the rabbithole enough for her yet. I know her first appearance was in a batman comic where she became spoiler to spoil her dad's plans - her dad being a third rate villain called the cluemaster - and she almost kills him, so good for her. Afterwards she appears every once in a while in various comics, most notably in Robin, where she and Tim as Robin start dating despite him knowing her identity but not the other way around.
Robin 60s (I don't remember the exact issues)
Steph gives birth and gives her baby up for adoption
Robin 126-128
Steph becomes Robin when Tim quits for his still-alive-but-not-for-long dad.
War Games
Steph does a fucky wucky and accidentally starts a gang war which gets her killed
There's another Robin arc where she comes back and it turns out she was never dead, Leslie (the family doctor) simply faked her death and sent her to Africa to recover
Batgirl 2009
Her first and only solo ongoing, but it's really good
She also appears a lot in Cass's Batgirl ongoings, and occasionally shows up in yj98. Her most recent series in Batgirls, which isn't very good but her interactions with Cass are very gay, and we've all been shipping it for 20 years at this point, so frankly it's long overdue. Unlikely to become canon tho, unfortunately.
Cassandra Cain
She doesn't use a lot of words, so neither will I. Probably.
No Man's Land
Frankly I am terrified to read this, it's so many goddamn issues, but this is her first appearance. I have one "volume" and it's as big as the fucking Bible.
Batgirl 2000
She's the first Batgirl to get an ongoing. The one from 2008 I've been reliably told isn't very good. She's absolutely terrifying in the 2000 one, I approve.
Outsiders 2016
Supposed to also be good for Duke content. I think at this point she's going by Orphan? Idk she's had a lot of names.
Idk I prefer Black Bat
Spirit World
Mini series that recently ended. Soooooo good. Alyssa Wong is a top contender for favorite modern writer.
She's mostly a background character. Bc DC is both sexist AND racist. She was also in batgirls.
Damian Wayne
Frankly he's my least favorite of the batkids, but that's not his fault, he's been a victim of a lot of really racist writing.
Batman: Son of the Demon
Somehow both his origin AND an elseworlds that doesn't count. Not required reading, but Bruce and Talia are madly in love in this.
Batman by Grant Morrison
After UTRH and before Dick was forced to become Batman Morrison reintroduced Talia's son, who in this version was a rape baby bc apparently brutalia weren't in love and Talia drugged Bruce. Fucking fine, I guess.
His character growth during his time as robin is sweet tho.
Robin 2021
His only solo ongoing, pretty good
Super Sons
He had two team up comics with then fellow child Jon Kent, son of superman, and it was fucking adorable. Then they aged up Jon to 17, so they're still friends, but Jon has his own shit going on.
Duke Thomas
He's REALLY new, and I haven't read any of it, I'm sorry.
Robin War
Batman and the Signal - I finally got my hands on the first issue of this last week!
The Outsiders 2016
Frankly they should capitalize on the Duke & Cass friendship/siblingship more often.
Alfred Pennyworth
I haven't read it, but there's a series called Pennyworth about his days as a spy for the crown. Supposed to be pretty good.
Kate Kane
The Jewish lesbian batwoman of our dreams
Batwoman: Elegy
Her introduction
Also, it's written by Greg Rucka, and if he can do one thing, it's write sapphic women. I'm not even joking.
Get the newer edition that has both of her original Rucka stories
Batwoman ongoings
She's had a couple, they're both supposed to be pretty solid, I've only read a few issues here and there
Batman in other media
Animated: I'm currently watching Batman the Animated Series for the first time and it seems to really get Bruce as a character, even if Robin will be there one episode and his existence will be a plot hole in the next. The Justice League animated series has also been fun so far. Teen Titans have gotten a number of animated adaptations all of which have pretty strong followings. There's an animated show called "Young Justice" which is a Teen Titans show and I refuse to watch it (it has a very devout following, but all that means is that the Young Justice - All Media Types tag on ao3 is just the same as Young Justice Cartoon and I have to filter heavily when looking for yj98 fics). Lego Batman is a REALLY fun film, and I think it turned into a whole franchise.
Live action TV: I have watched the first season of both Titans and Gotham, but both of those were before I was into the batfamily as a concept. My impression of Titans is overall negative and my impression of Gotham is overall positive.
Live action movies: There are so many Goddamn Batman movies. I like the Dark Knight Trilogy, but even calling it "based on" the Dark Knight comic trilogy is giving it a lil more credit than it deserves. The Batman 2022 is massively popular with the comic fandom for a reason - I'm not a big fan of it, but I did enjoy laughing at the movie so at least there's that. Batfleck sucks. I haven't seen anything else, up to and including the Joker movie. Oh, and Birds of Prey was really good, but that's not Cass.
Video games: The Arkham trilogy is well loved and I have indeed just bought it, but I haven't gotten to it because I'm currently working on Gotham Knights and uh. Okay so listen. This game is a lot of fun and I will be finishing it. But it's like. Got a massively antisemitic plot point. I can't even say I don't recommend it, I'm genuinely enjoying the game a lot. But I've never seen anybody bring this up, and it's bugging me.
ANYWAY I'm sure I've missed a LOT but this is introductory so you know I'm giving myself grace. There's characters I completely skipped and I'm sure mega fans of characters I haven't read much of will be offended that I said such and such about them but you know it's only been about a year and a half since I started reading dc comics and I'm still figuring it all out. And I probably will still be figuring it out for the next decade. To me that's actually part of the fun of it.

I know this is a few years old but I have been obsessed with this preformance and this particular translation- since I discovered it a week ago. 😅 Tobias is breathtaking - hes so visceral. My heart quickened , I could feel Achillies anger and Hectors fear. I am dissapointed that there isnt a proper adaptation of the Lliad nor is there an audiobook ft. Tobias himself. If such a thing existed it would be amazing to see. All in all, wow!
If anyone is curious the translation is by Robert Fagels.

Opinions on Robert Fagels Illiad and Odyssey? They’re the only translations I’ve read and the only ones I could find in my local bookstore, but I’m wondering if I should get someone else’s for my reread I’m gonna do in a few months.
I think they're fine. I'm pretty sure his were the first translations I read as a teenager, because they're easy to find and easy to read. Not my favorite translations, prose wise, but definitely not the worst imo. I've seen diehard Homer fans criticize him for not being accurate enough to the original Greek but as I do not read Greek, I can't speak to that.

Quote
And hard as it was to recognize each man, each body, with clear water they washed the clotted blood away and lifted them onto wagons, weeping warm tears. Priam forbade his people to wail aloud. In silence they piled the corpses on the pyre, their hearts breaking, burned them down to ash and returned to sacred Troy.
The Iliad, Homer (Robert Fagels trans.) [7. 491-496]

Former SEC official Marc Fagel gives recent perception on a possible settlement within the ongoing Ripple case.There have been rumors that the SEC might settle with Ripple earlier than the trial commences. Notably, the rationale behind this hypothesis, in line with some XRP supporters, is to allow the SEC to forestall its former officers from testifying through the trial.The trial, which pertains to the SEC’s case in opposition to Ripple’s execs- Garlinghouse and Larsen- is scheduled for Q2 2024.Fagel Weighs In On Potential Settlement Apparently, Marc Fagel, a former SEC official and knowledgeable in securities litigation, has supplied recent perception on a possible settlement within the Ripple lawsuit.– Commercial –Throughout a dialogue on X, an XRP fanatic requested him to touch upon whether or not the SEC will settle with Ripple earlier than the scheduled trial commences.Responding, Fagel highlighted one main purpose that might inspire the SEC to achieve an settlement with Ripple earlier than the trial.In accordance with Fagel, the SEC would settle with Ripple earlier than the trial provided that the claims in opposition to Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen have been thought of “high risks.”“I don’t think testimony from former SEC officials is a major factor,” he added.I feel if the SEC is involved in settlement, it’s as a result of the remaining claims in opposition to the people are excessive danger. I don’t suppose testimony from former SEC officers is a significant component.— Marc Fagel (@Marc_Fagel) September 10, 2023Deaton Outlines SEC v. Ripple Settlement Path Hypothesis relating to a possible settlement between Ripple and the SEC has heightened in current instances. Amid these speculations, some XRP fanatics predict that Ripple might announce a settlement at its victory occasion scheduled to be held on September 29 in NYC.Nevertheless, Crypto-Regulation.US founder John Deaton stated there will probably be no settlement announcement on the occasion.Per Deaton, a settlement might solely occur earlier than the top of the 12 months if the decide answerable for the SEC v. Coinbase lawsuit grants the crypto change’s movement to dismiss the case.Whereas the SEC has not indicated any plans for a settlement, Ripple stated it's open to such an association. Nevertheless, Ripple’s solely situation for a settlement was if the SEC deemed XRP as non-security.Choose Netburn to Oversee Doable ConventionRecall that Choose Analisa Torres declared that XRP itself is just not a safety. After the ruling, Choose Torres transferred judiciary oversight of chosen parts of the case, together with a settlement, to her colleague Justice of the Peace Sarah Netburn.Notably, Justice of the Peace Netburn ordered the SEC and Ripple to pick three dates for a doable settlement convention.

Prometheum’un kurucusu Aaron Kaplan, kısa mühlet evvel bir canlı yayında, 2020’den bu yana devam davayı ABD’li düzenleyici SEC’in kazanacağını söyledi. Eski bir SEC yöneticisi ise Ripple davasının birkaç gün içinde sonuncu karara bağlanacağını öne sürüyor.Aaron Kaplan, Ripple aleyhine karar bekliyorPrometheum’un kurucusu ve eş CEO’su Aaron Kaplan, son açıklamalarında SEC-Ripple davasına değindi. Daily Drop ile röportajında, SEC’in önde gelen Blockchain şirketi Ripple’a karşı açtığı davayı kazanacağını söyledi. Kaplan’a nazaran, “SEC’in bu Ripple davasını kazanacağını kestirim ediyorum. Zira her gösterge kurulun lehine bir karara işaret ediyor.”https://twitter.com/digitalassetbuy/status/1669349038830030848 Kaplan’a nazaran, devam eden Ripple davası, SEC’in açık kaynaklı içerik dağıtım şirketi LBRY’ye karşı açtığı davaya benziyor. Kaplan, LBRY davasındaki yargıcın, şirketin komiteye kayıt yaptırmadan LBRY Kredilerini (LBC) satarak menkul değerler maddelerini ihlal ettiğine karar verdiğini kaydetti. Devam eden Ripple davasındaki gerçeklerin LBRY davasına benzediğini, hasebiyle tıpkı sonucu beklediğini de kelamlarına ekledi.Ripple topluluğu reaksiyon gösterdiKaplan’ın topluluğu Ripple topluluğundan anında reaksiyon topladı. Birçok topluluk üyesi, Kaplan’ın LBRY ve Ripple davaları ortasındaki farkı vurgulamadığı için önyargılı olduğunu sav etti:Sadece ben miyim yoksa Kaplan, dolandırıcılar için “poster çocuğu” üzere görünüyor!Ayrıca, avukat John Deaton tarafından kurulan düzenleyici bir haber kaynağı CryptoLaw da birebir kanıyı paylaşıyor. CryptoLaw’a nazaran Kaplan, Ripple davası hakkında hiçbir şey anlamadığı için sırf SEC’i neşelendirmeye odaklanıyor.Aaron Kaplan, Gary Gensler’ın siyasetlerini destekliyorKaplan’ın yükünün SEC yanlısı olduğunu belirtmek gerekiyor. Bu hafta başlarında Meclis Finansal Hizmetler Komitesi huzurunda konuşan Kaplan, SEC Lideri Gary Gensler’in düzenleyici siyasetlerini geniş ölçüde destekledi. Bilhassa, 13 Haziran’da düzenlenen Kongre oturumunda, öteki şahitlerin görüşünün tersine, mevcut menkul değerler maddelerinin kripto sanayisini düzenlemek için kâfi olduğunu belirterek Gensler’e verdiği dayanağı yineledi.“Ripple ve SEC davası günler içinde çözülecek”Başka bir yerde, eski SEC yöneticisi Marc Fagel, en son kararın yakın olduğunu öne sürüyor. Fagel, Twitter’dan, davanın ertelenmesinin, yargıcın halkın reaksiyonundan etkilendiği tezini güçlendireceğini söyledi. Ayrıyeten, bunun daha fazla meçhullüğü kasıtlı olarak teşvik ettiğine dair spekülasyonlara yol açacağını ileri sürdü.Fagel ayrıyeten, XRP’nin ardındaki şirket olan Ripple’ın başka son SEC yaptırımlarından farklı olduğunu da açıkladı. Yargıcın, Hinman dokümanlarını sadece ferdi görüş olarak ele alabileceğini sav etti. cointahmin.com olarak aktardığımız üzere, Hinman dokümanları geçen hafta kamu oyunun huzuruna çıktı. Bu evrakların kabul görmesi Ripple için epeyce kıymetli.https://twitter.com/Marc_Fagel/status/1669390710989283328 Fagel, son olarak, kararın birkaç gün içinde çıkmasını beklediğini yazdı. Yargıcın Hinman evraklarını sadece ferdi görüş olarak görebileceğini söylemesi, Ripple aleyhine bir öteki tez.
