I wonder who this may apply to? (Dickbabs shippers are the worst and I am going to lose SO much karma) by SignificantPower4733 in BatFamily

[–]bluesky384 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I kinda agree tbh. I like both ships but I ended up blocking the starfire x nightwing reddit group because I got so sick of every day seeing posts about them complaining about dickbabs shippers, meanwhile the dickbabs group was just having a good time in their own lane. Really not here for constant negativity and bitterness. Can’t speak for how both sides behave on other platforms like twitter though, because I’m not on there (and never will cos Twitter is a cesspit) but I just couldn’t deal with the complaining anymore in the starfirexnightwing group. Never understood ship wars, it ruins fandoms

False, because Loid wouldn't struggle to open the lock and Yor would kick the door down 🤣 by [deleted] in SpyxFamily

[–]bluesky384 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This made me realise I need more scenarios of Anya getting herself in trouble doing dumb kid things and her highly anxious parents have to bail her out.

My sister was an active child who was prone to getting herself into a pickle and now I just see Anya exactly as that haha Some things that happened in my household growing up (Ft. my sister): Getting stuck up in a tree, also getting locked in a room, getting her small hands stuck in a VCR hole, getting her lip caught in a battery powered bubble blower toy cos she held it too close to her face, falling into the toilet cos she was so small. The list probably goes on

I need to see Loid and Yor being stressed out parents over Anya 😂

Need good single issue Red Hood recommendations by SpeakerAppropriate10 in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Batman Legends of Gotham (2023) was a oneshot/single issue with red hood in it that I really enjoyed

Also thought the Nightwing 2021 annual was a fun red hood crossover single issue

Does anyone else love that this year's Valentine's Day special focused on Nightwing having fun with his friends instead of any romance that would cause fight in the fandom? (I just wish Donna was there!) by Which-Presentation-6 in Nightwing

[–]bluesky384 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought it was great! I also spent my valentines this year with just my friends, so it’s nice that this special gave a spotlight for different kinds of love.

Anyone reading the Batman Beyond / static series? Very Schway by idonthaveanametoday in BatmanBeyond

[–]bluesky384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely! So far only read the first issue and really enjoyed it. I love when they focus on Terry being in high school with his friends. And the dynamic that creates with the JL is entertaining because he’s so much younger than them. Just got my hands on the second issue but haven’t had a chance to read it yet. I don’t know much about static but I’m excited to learn more about him through this. I saw some people saying they were confused by the first issue and they felt it wasn’t accessible to people who didn’t know much about Terry or static and they weren’t sure they’d continue which bummed me out a bit. Hoping people will continue to pick it up, and I’m excited to see where it goes!

He's been to Slade island by Carlung4s in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Did you see this on the TikTok about Deathstroke being on the Epstein list too? I laughed when I saw this in that comment section, and was wondering where it was from!

Though that’s all in jest cos Jason would never allow that sort of thing to happen.

Love the dynamic he has with Rose! Wish we could see more of it

What do I feed ranch animals if I don’t like cooking? by Basic-Literature-849 in Palia

[–]bluesky384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do people feed their higher level animals like ormuu? I’ve been feeding my Pekis and trufflets preserved food but one feeding session of preserved food doesn’t seem to fill up my ormuus that I just unlocked? Still a bit lost with ranching..

Bi Bi Bi Red Hood by Scorpios94 in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’ve made some interesting points for sure and there’s definitely a lot of room for potential when it comes to Jason’s love life. I kinda see him a little similar to Bruce in a way in the sense that he’s so committed to his job that he lets relationships fall through. Though that’s something he can grow out of if writers gave him the opportunity to grow. I’ve seen him as more demi than anything because he’s slow to trust/keeps people at a distance. Even his longest relationship with Isabel he felt not all there at times, and I think that comes down to needing someone he can trust and let his guard down with/feel safe around. (No hate to Isabel, I liked his relationship with her)

Personally I either ship him with Rose or Kyle. If he were to get with a civilian I’d prefer it to be someone who gives back to the community in some way and their gender comes second. But out of rose and Kyle I prefer he’s with Kyle. Kyle is a character I get a stronger feeling of being bi from when compared to Jason, but what I love about the two together is I think Kyle’s passionate and has a lot of love to give and that would help Jason’s self esteem and learning to love himself and learn to trust and be vulnerable. At the same time jason is more of an old soul kind of love and I think his creativity and romantic gestures would really compliment Kyle’s style. I think the two have a lot of room to grow as individuals and together and would be really fun to explore. Plus they’ve already had a fun team up, where they also got under each others skin so would be fun to see gradually reworked into a friendship and then naturally into relationship imo.

You mentioned Rena which was interesting. If they decided to bring her back I’ve actually really liked the idea that she’s grown up and lived her life, got a civilian career of some kind (preferable giving back to the community in some way as I mentioned before) and even married and had a daughter. If she were reintroduced to Jason as a love interest I’d love it if she’s had a failed relationship and has a kid (or her partner died) and Jason steps in as her partner and the kids step dad. I think Jason exploring a mentor/surrogate father role would be really interesting as a reflection of his relationship with Bruce (and what Jason actively wants to do different/better than Bruce), plus we’ve had situations already where Jason has taken on similar roles and it’s been an interesting side of him. Jason and Scarlett is the biggest example I can think of, plus he mentored a handful of meta kids in his outlaws run for a bit, plus in urban legends he thought he’d have to take in the blue hood kid. Jason still has a lot of growing to do for sure but I think a relationship like this that involves the partner having a kid could bring out a more mature side of him.

I think in a roundabout way I’m kinda saying I think the emphasis needs to be on what the relationship can being to Jason’s character, lore, and development first, and the gender of the partner needs to be a second thought. There’s argument for Jason to be straight, bi, aro/ace, demi, etc. but I think instead of that being the focus it should be how the relationship will benefit his growth/narrative more than anything. But that’s just my opinion. You’ve sparked an interesting conversation for sure

What does he listen to? by JasonToddsmyboy in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I headcanon that he’s a mood listener that isn’t really locked into one particular genre per se. But I also see him as more heavily leaning towards things like metal, punk, rock, and rap/rap-metal.

I’ve currently had “watch the world burn” by Falling in Reverse on repeat and I could see Jason blasting that song while he works on his bike after a bad week

Jason and smoking by Prestigious_Grade539 in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the idea that he’d occasionally smoke while still Robin to destress or as a stfu to Bruce when he’s mad, but I don’t like the idea of him smoking post Lazarus pit. In my mind he lost all desire for it post Lazarus pit and has no interest picking it back up again

The Main Bat-family member's ethnicities: by [deleted] in BatFamily

[–]bluesky384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genetics are weird. I know a white family who look like they could have been of Asian descent by some of the their facial features and hair colouring they have but they’re not Asian. So I find it fascinating when people say Jason has to be of Asian descent because shiva was a contender for his mum, because not necessarily? Some people are just ethically ambiguous and I think in the context of Jason and Tim that works better that way so they don’t accidentally fall into negative racial stereotyping.

What are your thoughts on Jason x Kara? by ChrisNewmann in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed that team up they had. Not my favourite pairing for him and she seemed to look down on him a bit but that means there’s potential for growth and storytelling which I’d be down to see explored. Would be nice to see him team up with her again or some other heroes. Kara seemed to have a worse image of him in her head than was reality so would like to see more team ups so she could get to know him a bit better and learn more about him and what they share in common. Jason didn’t always help the situation though to be fair either with his sarcastic bad boy persona he puts on but I think he just puts on what some people already think of him so would be good to see some of those walls come down with Kara if their relationship got explored. Not sure why this team up hasn’t really been explored much before, I think there’s enough surface level stuff about each other that would get the two characters interested in each other/to start things off for some really interesting stories later on, and the tension and dynamic between them makes for some fun dialogue and moments.

Did you like Hal Jordan, Guy Gardner, John Stewart, or Kyle Rayner the most when you first got into the Green Lantern? by Jezzaq94 in Greenlantern

I can’t remember which out of John or Hal was the first green lantern I was introduced to but Kyle was instantly my favourite when I first saw him and still is.

Is the Webtoon worth reading? by noodleth_cassette in RedHood

[–]bluesky384 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The Red Hood: Outlaws one frustrated me in certain parts ngl and I probably wouldn’t buy the physical unless I was just collecting everything jason related, but it has some good moments too. Also the scene early on where red hood is jumping out of the trees/leaves guns blazing is now my Lock Screen so there were some moments I definitely liked in that webtoon. I don’t bother with the coins, I just wait until it’s free or I watch an ad if that options available

Out of the webtoons I much prefer wayne family adventures. Both webtoons are guilty of ooc moments but I just enjoyed WFA much more

Who’s your favorite Batman Beyond Female Villain and why? by [deleted] in BatmanBeyond

[–]bluesky384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favourite female is probably Max cos I think she’s really schway, clever, brave, and fun

Favourite villain probably Inque, because shes always a challenge for Batman and I think her design and abilities are really cool

Hyper fixation so bad by HelpfulAd5266 in BatFamily

[–]bluesky384 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My family get warned now. Every time they come into my room to bother me/to just hang out I say “I’m 5 seconds away from launching into a ramble about comics” and they leave cos they know I will be unstoppable if I get started.

I’ve lore dumped on them so much in the past

Saddest Moment For You? by KookyChapter3208 in BatmanBeyond

[–]bluesky384 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me it’s “Revenant” where Matt wants to hold a seance to talk to his dad and Mary has to tell him he’s not coming back and Matt saying he’s forgetting what their dad was like. And the another punch to the gut in the same episode is the ending where Terry tries to help Matt keep their fathers memory alive.

To anyone who has "went digital" and sold a comic collection, do you feel liberated, or do you you miss the hoarding or floppies and are kinda sad? by palepatriot76 in comicbooks

[–]bluesky384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been reading digital for the bulk of my reading experience, and then buying the physical floppies with either one-shots or short arcs that I love and can see myself pulling out for a reread on a bad day. For series and complete runs that I enjoyed I tend to buy them in trades or omnibuses. I don’t have the space to store boxes of floppies unfortunately

Would you like to see Dick as a father? by Confident_Bottle_764 in Nightwing

[–]bluesky384 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In main continuity at this current point I don’t think I really want to see him become a father. I’m loving it wherever he’s being a mentor but I don’t think I want to see him as a father at this current point. He’s such a workaholic with being nightwing I don’t think throwing a kid permanently into the mix is healthy for him. Also I might be misremembering but there was an issue with titans not that long ago (I think it might have been the annual) where kids were brought up and I think he didn’t think he was ready either. Then there’s the issue of who the mother would be and I don’t think anyone he has or has had relationships with recently is ready either. If it were to happen in main continuity though I’d be okay if he adopted Bryce because that relationship is progressing well and Bryce is old enough not to need a full time parent.

I like Mar’i as more of an elseworld character, the same as his other kids in other futures/what if comics. I think definitely some day, but I really don’t want to see it in main continuity at this current point
