so injustice huh...

do you ever just think about Billy foreshadowing his death in Injustice. The conversation he has when he’s talking to Captain Marvel that goes something like, “Why?” “Why what?” “Why are you doing this? Why are you asking questions?”

Because that’s exactly what led to his death. Speaking out and asking questions.

do you ever just wonder if the boy who would’ve hung Superman posters on the wall with his foster siblings feared the burn of his death even after in the fields of Elysium.

My favourite part of the newest Adventure of Superman: Jon Kent issue:

Jon calling out Injustice Harley Quinn for her involvement to Joker's plans and not being willing to forgive her. Still, telling her to continue fighting alongside heroes to atone for what she did. He's so mature for his age, I'm proud of him!

Spoilers for Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent Issue #3

Jon really hitting him with the girl no.. this isn't u... 😓 while Damian is like who the hell is even that.. This is SO silly I cannot wait to see what happens next.

Found out Riddler is in Injustice. Mashing these 2 together like Barbie Dolls now.

The Truth about Injustice

I sat upon my Throne, one leg over an armrest. As I stare at the images, shown within the small glass ball in my hand. I can’t stop myself from smiling maliciously. I begin to laugh, and laugh, and laugh before I truly destroy everything around me, I slowly get control of my emotions.

I rise from my Throne and head towards a rack with other similar glass balls. Each one focused on a particular person. Today I have much work to do. A show to put on and people to meet. Just before I head out I start to create my false personality. One that’s weaker and focused daddy dearest’s plans.

Oh! How hilarious it is to me that everyone thinks that Superman becoming a Tyrant was because of Lois and their baby dying. When really it was it was my doing.

I remember that day. As a powerful Empath, how could I possibly forget? I remember the pure joy Joker felt as he succeeded in his plans. I remember the deaths and the pain of the injured. I remember the shock and agony as realization hit everyone. Lastly I remember the feeling of my humanity crumbling. My compassion gone like dust on the wind and my morals no longer standing in the way.

So much had happened that day. Not even my “friends” had come out of it whole. I take moment to remember my so called “friends”. Starfire in particular makes me clench my fists so hard, I begin to bleed. It still boggles my mind to this day. She thought I crumbled because Beast Boy had died. Me?! The one who childishly summoned her own father. Causing the complete and utter annihilation of her entire planet. I felt there deaths! I felt my mother’s death! I was brought to my father’s hellish realm. I was 10! I am a powerful empath and I was 10 years old! It took me 4 years to escape that realm. Knowing and accepting that I would have to deal with my father for the rest of my existence. Did she truly believe that the death of Beast Boy would be the only thing to break me? How dare she! How dare that BITCH believe me to be so pathetic and weak as to crumble so easily. When someone dies around me it’s like losing a friend, each and every time. That day, I didn’t lose one person. I lost millions… I lost Lois too…

The mere thought of everyone believing that I broke over one man. Hurts my demonic pride like nothing else would. Was I truly so pathetic in everyone’s eyes? In Starfire’s? Damn you Starfire! I will break you!!!

Using my meditation techniques. I get my emotions under control again. I take a moment to look around and see the sheer destruction I had caused. Sighing, I take a few moments to repair and put everything back in place. Than I go back to what I was originally doing. Creating my fake personality and focusing on more amusing thoughts.

Once I was free of my humanity. I thought about just destroying everything as father would want, but decided I wanted some revenge and fun first. I mean it’s not like anyone here cares enough to realize what’s happened. Too focused on the explosion and poor little Superman. To ever register the type of suffering an explosion like that could cause an Empath. A quick death is too good for them.

It took a while and even now, I still have to be on my toes . Any mistakes could be the downfall of my plans. It first started with nudges on Superman and Wonder Woman. A nudge of emotion here. A altered memory there and a whispered thought at the right moment. Causing two people, who were originally inspirations. To being a Tyrant and a simpering woman in love. Wonder Woman was easy. Her great ability for Love became her greatest vulnerability. Superman was harder. Not only because of his experience in dealing with psychic’s but also because he was the centre of attention. Any changes done too much or too quickly and his closet friends would notice. As would people like Mr.Terrific and Martin Manhunter. It was also quite frustrating. Especially when I’d come back to find some of my work undone.

As time went on I moved from those two, outwards. Towards the rest of the League and others… Like the villains and civilians. Some like Batman and Nightwing were untouchable because they would have immediately noticed anything strange. So I had to go looking for someone more vulnerable like Damian. He was always an emotional person. Reverting him to his old childish self took some time but was an interesting experience. It ended up giving me a moment too precious to pass up. Causing Nightwing’s death and placing the blame on Damian was immensely rewarding. Especially when it lead to Damian turning on Batman. A “Friend” eliminated and a nuance focused elsewhere.

Thinking over all that I’ve done over the last few years makes me grin and the best part, was erasing Joker. Oh, people still remember the explosion. They even know Joker did it but they don’t remember Joker. It amuses me greatly when I told him what I did. Not everything. Just the erasing part. The look on his face was priceless. I even took a picture and have it hung on my wall.

Yes, it was tough and some would even say pointless but to me it’s well worth it. After all… who would ever believe that poor pathetic little Raven would ever be a real threat. Grinning I finish up and teleport to my next location. I have a show to put on… and a “friend” to deal with. Don’t worry Cyborg. I haven’t forgotten you…

The End by LadyLark

*I hope I didn’t do the Injustice Universe an Injustice.(Pun intended😎)

*For those wondering. A lot of the psychic stuff came from my reading Mercedes Lackey books. Including the false personality bit.

panel redraw wip. idk if i'll finish it though

Damian's lines as an adult in Injustice 2 concerns me. He needs to distance himself from bad habits immediately.

It feels like a stab in the heart when I come across the injustice universe.

y/n: is that your hand on my ass?

jason: sorry, it was an accident.

y/n: your hand is still on my ass

jason: accidentally

[movie review] injustice (2021)

i watched all the cutscenes from the video game in preparation for this, and my biggest problem with it was that even if lois died (and even if clark was responsible for it), i just can’t see him going off the deep end like this. but in the video game all of that happened in the past. the movie is all about him getting to that point, and that’s actually drastically worse because the whole time it’s happening i’m just not even slightly buying it.

you just can’t turn clark into a dictator without him being a completely different person. the things that make him him could only be changed by a drastically different nature or a drastically different nurture, and this movie doesn’t suggest either of these. it just completely uncritically buys in to joker’s “one bad day” theory from the killing joke, and there’s nothing else to it.

there are actually a few things i like about this. dick and damian’s relationship is great, and has a lot of carry over of what i liked about their relationship in some of the batman movies from the previous run. i especially loved dick calling damian “little brother.” i’m also honestly super impressed that that did strike a chord with me considering that nightwing’s ghost being called “deadwing” made me giggle inappropriately every time he appeared.

i also liked how everybody picking a side was handled in the movie quite a bit better than in the game. the people who fall in with superman are never wholly complicit with his bullshit, and the one who comes the closest to being is diana (and frankly she’s almost as out of character as clark at times), and even she is genuinely horrified when confronted with unmistakable evidence that he’s gone off the deep end. also catwoman doesn’t side with clark to keep an eye on him and try to protect bats or whatever the fuck was happening in the game to set up bats being all butthurt about it and refusing to forgive her. that was dumb.

speaking of selina, the bit where clark sent her to check on bruce after dick died was extremely good. and although i already talked about how much i appreciate this movie’s take on dick and damian’s relationship, i also really appreciate it making it obvious how fucking important dick is to bruce. seeing him literally crying over him was… a lot. and selina does such a good job of comforting him, telling him not to be batman, to just let himself be a mess just for one night. that was exceptionally good.

i was also impressed that the u.s. is portrayed fairly accurately in this, with them freaking out the second superman seems to be challenging their authority and saying the quiet part out loud when they say, “superman’s bringing down governments. fine when it’s in our interest, a mighty big problem when it’s not.” they also jump right to siccing the cops on superman’s father. so, yeah. some points there.

unfortunately there’s also some serious bullshit here given that the u.s. government isn’t literally the first one supes goes after when he decides to start unilaterally taking down governments. plus there’s some tone deaf “both sides”y shit about israel’s occupation of palestine, and a throwaway reference to north korea’s nuclear program being disarmed but no mention whatsoever of any other country’s nuclear program like, oh, i don’t know, just throwing one out at random, the fucking united states. i mean, it’s not like they’re the only country in the world that has engaged in acts of nuclear war and–wait, hold on, i’m getting new information… huh. well, hey, they probably don’t blatantly bully other countries using their nuclear arsenal as a cudgel to uh… what’s that? … all the time?

huh. well, that’s awkward.

and yeah, given that supes is obviously the bad guy here, none of that would be a huge issue except for the fact that the movie isn’t really shy about what it thinks is right and what it thinks is wrong, and it doesn’t seem to be terribly upset about either of these throwaway details? and for that matter, no one ever actually articulates a counterpoint to superman’s bullshit? no one ever says, hey clark, funny thing is, when you prevent people from using violence to resist, you allow the everyday violence that oppresses them to continue unabated just because it doesn’t bother you. no one says anything other than, basically “nuh-uh.”

okay, there is one pretty good scene where mister terrific kicks clark’s ass rhetorically while simultaneously kicking his ass at chess. but even that doesn’t actually articulate a positive ideology to contrast with supes’. it just boils down to a slippery slope argument.

but that still isn’t the biggest reason why i didn’t like this. it just circles back around to the fact that they never, at any point, sell me on superman doing any of this. i was just constantly mentally shaking my head and saying “nope.” you didn’t make it believable, guys. a switch doesn’t just go off in your head and make you a totally different person because something really bad happens to you. and the whole story just falls apart if you don’t believe that. c-rank

Phantom Kitten

It all started as the GIW got more brutal in Amity Park. And Jazz wanted to make sure Danny was saved; the test showed just Danny was contaminated by it, not her, his friends, or her parents. So while he talked with her Jazz, to make sure he was saved, she pushed him into the Ghost Zone, into a door, to a different place, timeline, or universe. It didn't matter much, she would find him after all is done with the Booomarang. She should at least talk to him first! Danny woke up. He was de-aged as a toddler in a place called Gotham City. He used his powers to steal small items around the city. What! He had no money for food. To cover up his identity, he took the mask he found with Cat Ears and now calls himself "Kitten". Having Ghost Powers is cheating when you escape.

That was how he met the hero Batman, and Danny was fascinated by the gadgets. So he slowly started to steal his gadgets. The first time Batman met the toddler thief was when Danny tried to steal his Batmobile. Yes, the whole Batmobile. Batman, let the toddler play with it and have a head start... He didn't think that "Kitten" would be able to really steal his car. Danny made Catwoman and Batman determined to catch "Kitten" as they underestimated the adorable ghost's abilities. Catwoman Selina Kyle. Well, he is an adorable kitten, and he goes around as a cat already! And he stole her targets not once not twice but 10 times!!

A/N The Batman who lost the Batmobile can be Dick while Bruce was busy in the JL. Kind of want to see Dick trying to explain how he lost the Batmobile.

u may think this is a joke (which it is) but also jon has managed to literally forgive damian for everything hes done in every single universe hes been in and no one else

Batman being sulky after hurting himself

Injustice Timeline but with more Ghosts

Superman loses Lois, and starts to go rogue a la Injustice route.

Problem.

Dan, who was just entered into the Justice League, takes great offense to this.

Dan, who is reformed.

Dan, who remembers ripping every single member of the Justice League to shreds in that other timeline, and still remembers how to do it.

Superman never makes it past his opening speech to pitch the idea of hero-approved murder.

Dan, standing over an actually unconscious Superman who probably definitely needs medical treatment, looks at the other Heroes who would have sided with Superman.

"Ẅ̸̖̭͚̰̳̼̰́̇̋̚͜ͅh̴̨̛̭̝̘̻̙̝̜͔͚͛͌̿̉̓̈́̔̈̍͆̾͘͜o̵̦̟̣̖̝͔̠͍͙͖͕̔̏̈́͗̍͒̎̿͗̚͜'̴̦̣̪͓͓̤̲̲͐͌̂͋̉̚͠s̵̛̛̛̙̠̾̂͐̌̏̐́͝ ̵̛̩̹̪̤͔̰̣̼͈̒̉̿́͆͌͒͊̄͘̚͝ñ̷͉̠̩̝̇̒̐͂̄̽̈̃̅̕͘͝͠è̷͓̹̫͊̍̔̃̾̌̽̈́͑̓͜͝x̴̻̓̊̽̎̑ṫ̶̬̮̭̳͕̗̙̙̭̬̣̯͌͋̅͌̎͒͐̍͜?̴̗͍̺̼̪̞̋̕"

Meanwhile, Danny was sitting bored in his throne when a rather frightening new ghost forced her way in.

She demands an audience with him, introduces herself as Lois, and bullies him into making an interdimensional Passport.

She bullies Walker into agreeing that a Passport would make interdimensional travel follow the rules.

She has Danny searching various dimensions to find hers, because she wants to spend her afterlife with her still alive alien husband.

Danny...is too scared of her to tell her no.
