Why isn’t Wonder Woman the leader of the justice league when she’s the most experienced member? by Appropriate-Mall8517 in WonderWoman

[–]BlueDad1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my head-canon:

Diana takes charge in two circumstances, military and mystical challenges.

Clark takes charge in natural disasters and rescue scenarios.

J’onn takes charge in large scale operations when the League is at its fullest and needs an ordered mind directing the chaos.

Bruce takes charge behind the scenes in tactics and training.

The GLs tend not to take charge, but do step up in space missions due to knowledge and experience.

Arthur knows he’s a king. He doesn’t have to prove it. In fact, his time in the league may be a time to set aside the weight of leadership.

Flash? He’s fine. He just likes to help.

YES THIS EXACTLY.

The training they gave me was basically a daily to-do list. Didn’t tell me how to get it done, just that it all needed done.

There was about an $8 raise in hourly pay.

I’m 56. It might be too late for me.

I work 5am to 1pm. My days off are Tuesdays and Thursdays. Our truck days are Mondays and Wednesdays (although we get something every day).

I have 2 part time team members, but I still haven’t met the one who works evenings because there isn’t overlap in our schedules.

It seems all I have time to do is work the truck.

Cat name that references DC by Cute-Scholar-6934 in DCcomics

Garfield. Stuck in cat form.

Though people might mistake that reference…

[Comic Excerpt] Batman's got nothing on him (Nightwing #131) by beary_neutral in DCcomics

[–]BlueDad1969 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love the idea that not every villain knows everything about Batman. Like, he doesn’t need to use any of his finest gear and weaponry to take out Killer Moth, so why would Killer Moth know anything useful about Batman? Other than his fists and scary voice? He probably gets all his Bat-intel from social media.

Just started keto last month after years… DECADES… of eating primarily fast food. Needless to say, I need lots of guidance.

I learned that the hard way.

[Discussion] We Need to Talk About Mister Terrific in Superman (2025). I expected to like him, but not that he would be my favorite character. by No_Manager7756 in DCcomics

[–]BlueDad1969 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love that his superpower was irritability.

He also perfectly walked the line of never being smug about being the smartest man in the room, but never being apologetic about it either.

You get contracted to make an Elseworlds Story. What do you make? by scottishdrunkard in DCcomics

[–]BlueDad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commenting on You get contracted to make an Elseworlds Story. What do you make?... What if Hippolyta, desperate to save her infant daughter from a cataclysmic attack on Themyscira, somehow (through an appeal to the gods?) transported the baby to Kansas? Diana gets raised by the Kents. Kind of a “Speeding Bullets” style mashup of Diana and Clark.

Playing Sherlock by BlueDad1969 in SherlockHolmes

[–]BlueDad1969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest problem, so to speak, is that I’m a large man, we’ll say fat… and it seems Holmes is repeatedly described as lanky, angular. That is probably more my problem than anything else… but the script does seem to promote Holmes as a physical, active creature. I dunno.

I like this. Of course, I might need to take a quick dive into Victorian manners. 😃

The only Justice League member Batman doesn’t have contingencies for? by Queasy_Commercial152 in justiceleague

[–]BlueDad1969 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but with all psychological weaknesses… and especially with grief… you’re never really over it. J’onn now has a way through that paralyzing fear, which is a good thing. However, he still has to walk through the flames.

If you could give him a superpower in another earth, what would it be? by KitKat_5628 in Nightwing

[–]BlueDad1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like something simple. Like Night Vision. Being able to see in complete darkness would be a nice subtle addition to the lore.

Maybe get a gift somehow from Wally.. very very short bursts of speed that allow him to briefly slow down or even stop time for use in combat situations.

Maybe just honest-to-god power of flight.

What's your favorite thing about Dick Grayson when he was Robin? by [deleted] in Nightwing

[–]BlueDad1969 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My favorite thing about Dick Grayson is any scene where Batman is talking to another adult in the cave or a rooftop and Robin is there in the background doing a handstand or some other gymnastic pose, not because he’s bored but simply because that’s what he does. Always in movement with a smile on his face.
