So wait are livestock guardian dogs to their flocks like… Clark Kent among the residents of Smallville? He’s been here since he was a baby, we all know him, and he’s… generally one-of-us shaped, uh, approximately. And then when something goes wrong he suddenly leaps into action and does some terrifying impossible shit none of us could do. And then comes back home and settles in like nothing happened and he’s one of us again.
Well that part just makes sense. Easy come, easy go, right? XD

To be fair, in her universe 'deceased' basically means 'temporarily unavailable.'
This panel is awesome because not only is it one of the like… 2 references we get to JPV post his Azrael #100 death that show anyone else has noted in any way that the guy kicked the bucket
But it’s also like, comically redundant to write a big red “deceased” label over his head instead of Babs just… removing him from her active back up roster.

there may possibly be one slightly hinged bat but sadly he is usually busy dusting Wayne Manor
I love when comics imply that Jason is a common gossip topic in vigilante and criminal circles.
Like in Batman and the Outsiders (2019) #6, when Jefferson says "From what people tell me... [Batman] gets kids killed."
And in Gotham War Red Hood, when Simpson tells Jason "they say he trained you."
Goddamn but an anti-Superman deathtrap is always something else, ya know?
It's like the writers take all their frustration about having to write conflict around Clark's ridiculous power set, and say "you know how I would catch this guy out..."

“My body, my choice” only makes sense when someone else’s life isn’t at stake.

This exact issue came up in a serious business meeting at a corporate database job I used to have, to the eventual horror of everyone involved.
Took me a while to figure out why my coworker, who jumped to demonstrate on the laptop running the powerpoint, turned beet red and avoided everyone for weeks. Once it clicked I have never been so glad to have been half asleep at a boardtable. Thanks to my being too tired, I was slow on the uptake to volunteer when the bosses asked for an example of this supposedly superior AO3 search feature.
As a result, *I* was not the one who showed poorly punctuated porn to the entire department.
The problem with AO3 is that every online store's search function is bullshit by comparison
I adore small art of scenes we will never get in big movies. They are the moments that can most easily be cut, without ever hurting the narrative, but they hold the soul of the work.
Happy Hobbit Day! :D
This one was a beast, but man it was fun.
Once again, the poetry is from my super cool friend, Meg. Who also wrote the poem for this set of drawings. Though, if you asked her, she'd just tell you that she only rhymed what Tolkien wrote in the House of Healing chapter. Regardless, scream some love in the comments for her!
Or- check out her other poems and writings here! She's got a bunch!
With that being said, thank you, Meg, for giving me the proper outlet to draw this scene. I would not have been able to get nearly this far or include this much emotion without you <3
