I wonder, how hard would Odysseus hit me for telling him โenjoy the journey not the destinationโ?
very tired of the โDick Grayson is mostly a pretty boy with bad puns, golden retriever vibesโ trope. Give me German Shepherd Dick. Give me the โconsummate performerโ Dick. The one all, brilliance, bloody smiles and showmanship, the one with razor sharp wit and charm made weapon. Dick who seamlessly switches between a million personas. The one who doesnโt know what to do when the showโs over. Give me the Dick no one wants to be on the wrong side of because Nightwing might not start battles, but he finishes them. The only one whose threats the entire Batfam (including Bruce) takes seriously. The one fear toxins canโt affect because heโs been to hell and back.
The Dick who unlike Jason doesnโt even mention how much heโs been fucked up and survived. The one the Joker knew he couldnโt break.
Lex Luthor hates Superman, Lex Luthor hates the Justice League, bla bla blaโฆ You know who Lex must really hate? Bruce Wayne.
Because he knows that bitch is Batman. Heโd worked it through that big brain of his and heโs without a doubt certain that the same idiot who spilled champagne on him last New Yearโs Eve moonlights as the Batman.
But he canโt fucking prove it. So heโs resigned to a lifetime of having to make stilted conversation filled with double meaning while Brucie just flutters his eyelashes and pretends to be a ditz. And Lex just has to sit there and take it, because Bruce knows that Lex knows and absolutely uses that knowledge to fuck with Alex at every opportunityโhe says the absolute shittest, godawful pickup lines and flirts to his heartโs content, knowing full well that he helped Superman kick Lexโs ass last week and that Lex knows it was him.
creature-hood ๐ป
just a quick little drawing for today with my favourite man, RED HOOD
i like when artists draw red hood as like.. an entity or some other-wordly creature so hereโs my go at it !! Iโll definitely be trying out different styles and such with this concept :)
I want to point out how the final fight in Epic is not in song 38 but song 40.
How after Odysseus became "the monster" he then, was the last boss to fight
And Penelope fights him.
Because she fights for her husband, for the man beyond the trauma, for the man WITH the trauma, for the man she will always love and will wait forever if necessary.
She makes him angry, he gets furious and Penelope is the only character so far who matches that fury and tames it.
And Penelope wins.
She defeats the "monster".
And all it's left... it's just a man. Her man.

We must stop tying up this poor man ๐ฅน
i tied him up again. because of you.
The scheme proves that every single action eventually leads us to tied-up Dick, so I can't take responsibility for that. And I won't. I will enjoy it. With a bit of guilt. But still.
