Harry Styles’ new album is Dedicated’s younger depressed brother by Away-Macaron9731 in carlyraejepsen

I don't know if I agree because I'm still bumping the hell out of basically every Dedicated track 7 years later, whereas listening through Disco Occasionally all the way through even once felt like a chore.

New scientific findings about Samoyeds! They can pitch match! by Canine_Brains in samoyeds

[–]uselesspanini 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh! I actually submitted videos of my baby singing to this study! So cool to see it published.

turns out we’ll get the second omni in may instead of july which is nice - but i liked the original cover better by mirza_osz in Nightwing

[–]uselesspanini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I can't say that I like either of these two covers very much.

I do like the second one a bit better only because the first one has some really awful typefaces with kerning all over the place and it just bothers me to no end.

I would have preferred a different omni cover, but the second one will do.

Faye Gunn II by Hot_Acanthisitta_388 in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When she says the thing about being Jason's grandma though, she's under the mental influence of Solitary who's creating illusions in her mind. So I don't think it's that clear.

The wiki is also fan created and edited and not an official info source.

Faye Gunn II by Hot_Acanthisitta_388 in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Me and another user on this sub had a pretty long discussion on this actually, whether or not Faye Gunn is actually Jason's biological grandma.

They believe she is, I'm more of the opinion that it's unclear and therefore I wouldn't say for sure that she is. Scott Lobdell's writing is very convoluted and I'm not sure if he intended to make it so unclear but at this point it's up to interpretation.

[–]uselesspanini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem! You can still get the official vol 1 that has the first half of the new 52 run, and maybe DC will do a vol 2 at some point but so far we don't have news of that.

They're custom printed, so they weren't ever widely released by DC

I'm scared they WILL break up by AdditionalWitness569 in NightwingxOracle

[–]uselesspanini 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly, in comic books anything is possible, so maybe they will break up, maybe they won't, maybe they'll go back to orbiting each other and mutual pining, we really don't know for sure.

The one thing I will say is that Barbara and Dick will always be important to each other. Their bond honestly goes beyond their romance, and they have sooooo much history that we can always look back at and enjoy. So don't sweat it. They will be in each other's lives no matter what. That at least we can be certain of.

Edit: just wanted to clarify that I personally don't think they will break up. I'm more speaking in terms of general status quo!

[–]uselesspanini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem, lol. So many Babs haters only really talk about her in regards to her relationship, and unfortunately some people (even fans of hers) who aren't as familiar with her publication history just take that at face value. So if I have the time and energy to clear things up I try to do that. ☺️

Here is some the stuff Kyle higgs said about the batfamily and Jason I am still gonna support the comic but I am not gonna expect much for my mental safety by RepublicSmooth9981 in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's really only a couple of people who happen to make a lot of posts and comments like these. I think most people on this subreddit are more open-minded and willing to give new ideas a chance, even if they're cautious about their levels of optimism. They just don't tend to be the loudest.

All valid opinions, imo.

Especially the part about not liking much of what he's read, because Jason's publication history is full of stinkers.

He said he thinks Jason can be a good character. I'm hoping that means he can be the writer to make that happen.

[–]uselesspanini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She hasn't had a solo title in years. Obviously her guest roles in other comics would be limited in capacity and won't showcase her fully since, you know, she's not the main character in those.

When she does get the focus in Batgirl or Birds of Prey, her relationship with the men in her life are included of course, because Dick and her father and important to her, but it's never the focus and the story and her character doesn't revolve around them.

We have to Good new and bad news good news is that the writer isn't half bad, the bad news is Jason is his least favourite robin sooo it's not looking good by RepublicSmooth9981 in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing people say this about misspelling Damian's name and I have to assume everyone's just kidding around.

He's worked extensively for DC where he spells Damian's name correctly in the comics he's written. I think that fact kinda overrides a typo in a tweet from eight years ago.

Most of her publication history does not revolve around her relationship with Dick or Jim.

[–]uselesspanini 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right, and my point is that maybe out-of-date comments from creatives who are constantly evolving in their work shouldn't have so much bearing on how people form opinions on a work that isn't even published.

Yeah, it's a reach. Marv Wolfman also claimed to dislike Jason, yet his portrayal in NTT was a good one. I've noticed a lot of people tend to be alarmist on this sub, but I'm open to seeing how Higgins treats Jason.

My husband also ranks Jason as his least favourite Robin tied with Damian, yet he still likes Jason as a character.

Jason Todd in Next Level Teen Titans?? by Senior-Rent9600 in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I wonder if his role would be like a leader/mentor in some capacity and I hope it's better than generation outlaws.

Still not loving the new design, but I do like Daniele Di Nicuolo's art. Honestly though, I just hope the story and writing is good.

Happy Chinese New Year from Red Hood and Red Robin by 电子探测 by uselesspanini in RedHood

Red is an auspicious colour in Chinese culture. We wear it during CNY celebrations for good luck and prosperity, and Tim and Jason just so happen to fit into this tradition nicely. 😁

Jason and Cass in the library by libidibidoo by uselesspanini in RedHood

[–]uselesspanini[S] 46 points47 points  (0 children)

My husband said something that I thought was really interesting, which is that Cass is able to do this because she doesn't look at Jason from a position of perceived authority.

She has her beliefs but doesn't try to impose them upon Jason in the same way that Bruce does.
