Do you think when Dick turned 18, he realized that he spent more of his childhood with Bruce than with his parents ?

#if we believe that his parents died when he was 8 or 9 which I do #dick grayson #bruce wayne #batman #robin

I was thinking about No man's land and even if Dick still had his childhood room after the fight between Bruce and him after Jason's death (honestly I wouldn't put it past Bruce to tell him to leave the key but actually keep the room because Bruce misses him), it was probably destroyed in the earthquake.

Dick's pixie boots my beloved.

This is genuinely my favorite part of his Robin costume. It's so cute.

Sometimes I think about Marv Wolfman introducing Liu to the Nightwing run after the Devin Grayson's run and I have to ask...

Sometimes I think of Spyral and how the entire thing was very out of character for Bruce in particular.

Because what do you mean the guy known for contingency plans (tm) doesn't have a contingency plan in case he dies (or something similar which is what happened here) while his oldest son is stranded alone with an organization that they think is corrupt with a chip that can kinda control him or at least know where he is at all time, on a mission he sent him in ?

🚨EMERGENCY! PLEASE READ!🚨

Moataz @moatazart, Mariam, and baby Maria are set to make the dangerous journey from Gaza City in the north to Rafah in the south. From there, God willing, they will enter Egypt.

HOWEVER, the money they had allocated to procure shelter and food while in Egypt was utterly depleted by exploitative fees and hidden costs, which we break down in this post. Moataz speaks more on the situation in this post and on his own blog @moatazart, which we ask people to follow and boost. They have a fund going to raise the remaining money, but the fund only has a week and a half left before it closes! They are not even halfway to their goal!

Please share what you can with Moataz’s family so they can find safety and security in Egypt! They have no one in Egypt with whom they can stay and currently nowhere near enough money to secure shelter! After all they have survived, please don’t let this young family be left vulnerable! If they cannot procure food and shelter, they will be extremely vulnerable not only to the dangers of homelessness, but to groups and individuals who prey on refugees!

Safety for Gazan refugees does not end with leaving Gaza! If this campaign is not finished in LESS THAN 2 WEEKS, they will be homeless in Egypt! They are so close to a fresh start, please don’t let all the risks they are taking to find safety be for nothing!

Tales of the Teen Titans #59

The way that Dick's help (or I guess Dick is speaking on behalf of the Titans here but still) is a given is sooo 😭. It's like when Roy asked Dick to help him and the CBI with Cheshire. Dick's immediate response was, "No problem, Roy."

Action Comics Weekly #613

Then there's the time when Roy went to Dick for help with KGBeast. Dick was too busy to personally assist him, but even though Dick couldn't help directly, he didn't leave Roy out to dry. He actively petitioned for some of Bruce's time for Roy's benefit.

Batman Plus Arsenal

Another time, Dick was talking to Damian on the phone, and while they were talking, he got a bunch of texts from Roy asking if he could help out with some business in Gotham.

Nightwing (Vol. 4) #43

We didn't see Dick respond to the texts, but he obviously agreed to help Roy right away because he then met up with both Damian and Roy in Gotham. Dick and Damian then proceeded to help Roy with his Cheshire problem. *cough* And while it's not totally relevant to this post, I'm just gonna drop Damian's snarky comment here because of the insinuation 😌.

Nightwing (Vol. 4) #43

I won't include the times Dick helped Roy without Roy even asking him to, but just know they do exist, and that Roy has done that for Dick as well, most notably through the Outsiders situation. Their willingness to help each other just makes what Dick said to Roy in Outsiders #11 hit so much harder.

"There is no one... no one I'd rather have fighting at my side than you."

Devin Grayson's trauma dumping of Dick happened at the same time as the Outsiders (2003) and I think I would have loved to read Roy and Dick having a conversation after Blüdhaven is destroyed and he almost killed himself trying to save those people.

Don't get me wrong, while I really didn't like how Bruce handled it after (don't yell at your passively suicidal son that you won't forgive him if he doesn't value his own life), I get why it had to be Bruce there.Among other things, It's his judgement that has Dick spinning around in circles but I wish Roy also got a chance to have a conversation. They've really been building up Dick's declining mental health in the Outsiders. Helena is out there telling Roy that something is really clearly wrong with Dick and Roy himself has created the team specifically because he knows Dick is trying to isolate himself because of Donna's death.

In my opinion, it doesn't really culminates to anything in the Outsiders. Even Donna's return,which you would think was Dick's reason for being so bad if you read The Outsiders only and which happens in the Outsiders/Titans crossover, kinda put Dick in the backseat while focusing on Cassie and Roy. That isn't a bad thing in itself but it kinda feel like they dropped that plot a little bit (Dick does quit and come back but that's before she is back).A conversation between them could have been a catharsis or a resolution of that plotpoint, especially considering the Outsiders shows up at the end and Roy specifically tells Oracle that something is very clearly wrong with Dick after Dick knock him out right before Blüdhaven is nuked.

Also, when I first read the Devin Grayson run, one of my main criticisms (apart from all of the racism and badly handled sa and the fact that she couldn't even finish the story she wanted to tell) is that from the moment Haly circus is destroyed and Babs kicks him out of her apartment the next day until the war games, Dick is isolated and it's very weird because a lot of things happening to him are making the news (Amy is the one who seems to be there, oh and Alfred makes an appearance I guess) but after having read Outsiders, it really feels like Roy was the only one who was trying to actively help him and stop him from self-isolating (and then he got shot in the chest five times).

First of all, we need to talk about how teeny tiny Lian is. She is so teeny tiny she can fit into someone's hand (granted he is very tall but still)

That said...Did she just ? break ? Savage's finger ? because of a trick she learned from Dinah ? Did she actually do that ?

I love that little girl so much.

So... I don't know how much of that is an unpopular opinion but... Devin Grayson writes a pretty good Roy.

#i've read Titans (1999) and Roy was my favorite thing about it and now i'm reading her arsenal mini series and again....it's good #roy harper #arsenal #dc #dc comic #dc comics

I love Wally West so so freaking much, you all have no idea, but I have to get this off my chest: if I am going to be perfectly honest, whenever I see Wally named as Dick’s #1 best friend over Donna I am overwhelmed with a mixture of frustration, despair, and rage

cant get more fascist police state than snipers on rooftops overlooking peaceful protests.

Yeah, I just don't think they were thinking of that when they picked that name for her.

I was thinking about merch in-universe and how we always see Dick wearing a superman march, and that's true and valid and absolutely in-character for Dick, he loves superman but also I feel like he would wear titans merch a lot too because his friends are amazing ?

So here are some Titans merch headcanons for Dick specifically:

Mr Dick, I feel as if I've known and loved you all my life, Grayson would definitely wear a Wondergirl and later on Troia pajamas and tee shirt and he would specifically tell people it's a Troia shirt and not a wonder woman shirt because Troia is amazing. Also he and Donna have a mug of each other and it's both of their favorites. I don't make the rules.

He also have some cute figurines of all the titans and a Titans together tee shirt (everyone has a matching one, a gift from Kori at some point).

Lian used to have all of the titans toys when she was tiny given by said uncles and aunts but one in particular is an extremely loud and annoying Arsenal toy given by Dick after Roy purposefully bought the ugliest and most obnoxious merch he could find of Nightwing and wore it to mess with Dick (this move was probably inspired by Gar and Vic doing the same thing to each other always). Lian loved it. Roy...wanted to throw it out of the window. He did not.

He has both a flash and kid flash mug. He got the Kid flash one when they were still Robin and Kid Flash and it has never broken.

He definitely has some stuff that Garth brought back from Atlantis and Tempest stickers. They are very cool. He also has a Garth shirt that he really likes.
