#GK dick is just as canon as YJ dick

[lylethewaterguy]

Wait why are people so desperate to be like “the Gotham Knights games aren’t canon though” “none of it actually matters” “y’all are acting like it will actually impact the comics” about Dick… dude, my guy, representation is representation? No one is saying dick is now canonically bi in main comics continuity, they’re saying he’s canonically bi in the game. It’s like how the riddler is gay in the Harley Quinn show, representation doesn’t have to be in the comics to matter. I get that your fave being bi hurts your macho persona or whatever but get a grip and let people be happy to see some queer representation.

#nightwing #dick grayson #gotham knights #not to mention #while sure there is a main comics continuity #everything else created or licenced by DC is equally canon #GK dick is just as canon as YJ dick #who is just as canon as dc vs vampires dick #y’all comic book purists #who think all that matters is the main continuity #(as if that doesn’t change and contradict itself every other month) #are just really annoying #let people enjoy thing

“and you can do a flip?” LMAOOOOOOO REAL !

seriously though i love dick grayson sm bc he is me and i am him. but i love jason a lot bc i just wanna be there for him ig? smth makes me wanna fix him or be broken with him idk how to put it. so idk who i prefer over the other. also there are just so many. versions? of jason. i cant even say who my favorite is bc i like most of them for vastly different reasons. there are different versions of dick yeah but i think you can kinda sum all of them up with the same baseline story and characterization.

i think the first time i learned about the batfam was when the gotham knights game came out which is kinda late but i never cared too much about dc media until then bc the easiest way to get me interested in something is through a game 😭 but TECHNICALLY the first time i saw nightwing was whenever ppl edited comic panels or smth, same for jason but when i first saw red hood i deadass thought he was deadpool bc of that one panel with the book and the gun… still ashamed of that to this day

but ok so boom i see an ad for gk and im like oo this is cool then nightwing pops up and i’m like WOAHHHH he’s sexy i think i know him! red hood’s in the game too but i didn’t care too much for him until i started playing as him and realized that like. wow that dude is huge. wow he can probably snap me in half with ease. but i think i REALLY started liking jason when i played arkham knight (which is also probably when i was actually first introduced to nightwing now that i think about it but i don’t feel like retyping anything sawry)

but anyway i think i’ve already asked this question or some variation of it… favorite version/writing for dick and/or jason GO

why'd i literally never see this?

i'm not a gamer so i'm not super familiar with each games outside of what i know from tumblr and deep dives into wikis. i think i've watched some clips of walkthroughs on tiktok. mostly arkham knight tho because i loooooooooove that whole plot. i have no clue what gotham knights is about tho???

i literally don't even know how i truly found out about nightwing. bc i watched teen titans and teen titans go as a kid and i knew that was robin but i didn't connect...that it was robin from batman and robin??? like i knew it but i never actively thought about it.

i do really love how dick as robin has a lot of content seperate from batman like. i'll cry again but. young justice. aghhhhhhhhhhhh

and i'm not sure when nightwing came into my life but woah. nothing was ever the same. like i've got a smile on my face while i'm typing about this bc i've got a pic of him in my mind and it's got me kicking my feet. he's just so silly and fine. i love him BAD.

for dick i 100% write for young justice dick/nightwing. i love him. i love him bad. i wish he was in more episodes of yj but as the show goes on he appears less and less and ugh my heart.

for jason, i've said this before but it's like a mix of different versions of him. there's a mosaic of him in my head that's a mix of canon and fanon. and bc they just like...reboot him every few years it's hard for me to pick just one.
