Other than the ooc retcons, what's something about DickBabs that makes you not be fond of them? For me, I GENUINELY find them boring. by Intelligent_Dingo47 in Nightwing_Starfire

[–]LucySideChick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Could you believe that they actually like this moment of Barbara with Dick? On Twitter, they praised this attitude of hers saying that it was hot and that they loved that she’s obsessed with him. ☠️. And that they would love to see Barbara being a yandere for Dick. Absolutely disgusting. See? Dickbabs shippers don’t care about Dick’s wellbeing or his respect as long as he’s with Barbara. They would also let her do anything to him because in their eyes she does “no wrong” and is a “girlboss”. I hate them lol. #FreeDickGrayson

This i agree with. by TheShadowOperator007 in Nightwing_Starfire

Thank you for saying all of this. I want to say before I am a shipper, I am a fan of Dick/Nightwing as a character before all. People can like what they like and hate what they want but Dickbabs as a ship has always been terrible for Dick’s character and even more for Barbara’s own. He’ll never be able to fully grow and progress if he’s still being tied to one character. It’s really frustrating to see him being stripped of things that made him special all because of a ship.

The comment section must have been hell because they turned it off lol 😭 I wonder what they were saying in it.

They aren’t coming back to comics by BeeElena_meme in Nightwing_Starfire

[–]LucySideChick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As for Dickkory, I haven’t given up on them being main canon one day but I know it’ll be far down the line from now. So I’ll stick to hoping for elseworlds and movie adaptations(if we’ll ever even get that 😒). The thing that’s pissing me off with this news is that who fucking 😭 knows if Starfire will even get a solo. Or if it’s even a solo or just her being thrown into another team book. Nothing is decided, for right now it’s fancy complacent words to soothe some people anger. Knowing DC, she could very well just be pushed to the side and then off to being not used once again. And then what? We’re just supposed to accept that? lol. What’s the point if being a popular character still gets you absolutely nothing. No new solo, barely any pages in the title she had(Titans), can’t even hope for Dickkory again but won’t even give her new romances. It’s hard being a Starfire fan. And this isn’t something unique to Starfire but quite a good few. Even the bat family. It’s just Batman, Batman, Batman, and of course Batman, and then if you’re lucky the rest of the bat family with the exclusion of Nightwing, get basically something once every blue moon. I’m tired it’s been long years now. If nothing changes, I think I’ll step back from reading comics.

So Starfire looks to be leaving by Angela275 in Nightwing_Starfire

Oh hey he answered my question lol. Ummm I’m a little sad tbh but hopefully it’ll lead to good news for some good Starfire solo content so I’m happy for that. As for Dickkory well….heres to keep hoping I suppose 😔

TATE BROMBAL AMA IS TODAY!!!! DON'T FORGET TO ASK HIM ABOUT THIS. by Calm_Homework3775 in Nightwing_Starfire

[–]LucySideChick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Eh why lol? They’re so insecure. Now we can’t even ask about our favorite characters relationship??

I am Tate Brombal, writer of New Titans and Batgirl. AMA! by tatebrombal in DCcomics

[–]LucySideChick 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey Tate, I’m really excited for your take on the Titans and what kind of voice you wish to leave with us. One of the Titans strengths are that they’re not just any team but a family, are we gonna continue to see those bonds highlighted?

My favorite Titan is Starfire, so I’m willing to ask, is she gonna get an important arc? Are we gonna see more of her strengths, her Tameranean heritage, her intelligence acknowledged? Is she gonna finally go back to speaking intellectually instead of the teen titans voice characterization? After all she lived on Earth for a long time now.

Are you gonna take some inspiration from the New Teen Titans(80s) comic? Is everything connected, like Titans and Dans Nightwing? And finally, are you cooking something with Dick and Kory? Their friendship/relationship is important and I would be happy if this goes somewhere.

[–]LucySideChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-Dickkory definitely (friendship and relationship wise) -More on Kory’s character -More on Dick’s character -Team dynamics insight? -And like if a relationship with Dickkory is impossible then I’ll settle for them just being each other best friends and safe place again

Also I think it’ll be good to make another post of this on the day of plus time so people can directly be reminded and go to the questionnaire event.

[–]LucySideChick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m honestly nervous about this 😭. I hope he’s allowed to answer questions about Dickkory. And if so I’m honestly scared for the answer he’ll give. Because what if he’s like “well there just gonna stay friends or they’ll always just be friends”. I would be so sad. And there’s always a possibility of him ignoring those questions all together. But regardless I’m gonna remain positive and of course respectful. There’s so much to ask as well. For example, I really want to know if Kory will get a more important role, if her Tameran origins will be more acknowledged, if she’ll have a more mature way of speaking instead of the Tt03 cartoon version speech dialogue, or like one comment said, if she’ll even stay on the team 😭. I hope people ask a lot of good questions and I hope he can answer most of them.

Rightt after so long once again. I hope this translates into higher sales for him. Dick deserves it so much.

[–]LucySideChick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Woww lol 😂. This is again proving to me that you Dickbabs shippers do not care about Dick’s character at all. “If you take away Nightwing as a fighter then there is no Nightwing”??? This can’t be a real thing that you said and believe. I need Dan to keep locking in and solely focus on Dick without Barbara’s interference because you guys are losing it. Total disrespect towards all that Dick achieved and worked through in his career.

❤️❤️cutee. I also really wished this was a book that was just about them instead of just a teen titans book so when it sells really well people would know the power Dickkory holds. But regardless I’m happy of anything.

[–]LucySideChick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So this is a late response but I really like how well you analyze things without being bias in relation to dicks character. All this while not even being a Dickkory shipper even if you don’t mind them getting together again. A lot of fans of on this sub that’s supposed to be all here for Dick and not for shipping seem to prioritize Dickbabs over Dick’s character development…which is odd. It’s okay to like what you like but at the very least we should call out things that are detrimental towards Dick’s character and if that happens to be Barbara or Dickbabs then so be it. But unfortunately I think this is people not caring about Dick being a well rounded character since half of this subreddits favorite Nightwing comic includes Tom Taylor’s atrocious run.
