Don't you love having motivation and then your body goes nah, perish.

Anyway my health aside I'm Thinking about things with Sol.

A. Her being stubborn and foolhardy when she's younger and that's the kind of shit that got her in trouble. It's an impulse she still has and she's still as stubborn as a mule. But she's at least learned a little.

B. Her background. I do need to actually write it it's just ugh. UGH. Solita's background was written originally for a much younger character, she used to be 19. But given her rewrite/redesign and aging up it doesn't make much sense for her?

But I want to keep the fact that Solita's backstory, and the beginning of her story with Deity, is drowning. Sol drowns because of a conflict that started because she was stubborn and doesn't know how to change her mind. I like the idea of Sol used to have this paragon-esque personality early on. It's a personality that clashed with a cocktail of bad choices and bad situations.

And Solita had to change because she's stuck in, no pun intended, a sink-or-swim situation. But every time she sinks, she's pulled back up and told to try again. And again. And again, again, again.

Danny turned his face up toward the sky, letting Gothams rain poor down his face. His husband, Tim, had loved this city-to the point of dying for it while wearing a mask.

The court of owls had been cowardly, and honestly Danny should have expected that from a bunch of entitled rich people. Many of the bats were there taking down the courts lackeys but there wasn't any signs of the Talons, which made sense since they seemed to act oddly around Phantom and just kinda flopped onto the ground and bared thier necks to him. Wierd.

Everyone was fighting, so no one noticed the tip of a snipers rifle poking out of a crag in the cave walls until it was too late. A shot was fired.

And Tim was on the floor

Danny didn't remember much after that. He remembers Nightwing holding his little brother while Batman came to his side. He remembers the other bats running off to find the sniper and Danny just...stood there. He stared at Tims blood splatter and the gray matter all over the floor. The bullet had went through his head had killed him quickly but this didn't comfort him. The scene was so gruesome but he couldn't bring himself to look away as his vision was consumed by green.

The next time he became aware Nightwing was in front of him, asking him to turn himself in. Confused, he asked what he had done only to learn he had hunted down every Court of Owls member like a man possessed and torn them to shreds. No one was sure how Phantom knew who was a member or not especially while he was in that state, but it didn't change the face that Phantom had killed so many people.

Danny was horrified. How could he had done this? He had never experienced the pit rage before and never thought he would. But here he was having lost almost two weeks of time and gaining more blood on his hands than he knew what to do with.

So Danny, not wanting to argue or-ancients forbid- fight his family-in-law while everyone was grieving, agreed to turn himself in.

So he did.

He never agreed to stick around for an interrogation or a trial though. So he didn't.

The cops never even learned of his true identity before he took off but he knew it wasn't safe to stay in Gotham anymore. Heck, it probably wasn't safe to stay on Earth anymore with all the heroes that would be after him if the bats so much as asked. And there was no way he could go back to his own dimensions Earth either.

...but that didn't mean all Earths where out of the question.

---

Danny had finally gotten settled in this new dimension. Starting over was always hard but he had done it before. Grabbing a gig as a freelance translator and editor for a few publication companies was pretty easy when you knew what cards to play and what people to call. Plus, Danny was really good at making false identities and translating, so that helped a ton.

At night he would keep a look out his window, trying to spot the bats of this world, as as much as it hurt him to do so, he always delighted in seeing this worlds Tim running along the rooftops.

This went on for a while until Danny started getting nauseous and intense pain in his chest and abdomen. It was bad enough that he sniffed out this worlds Dr Thomkins pretty quickly and asked her to give him a check up.

Upon doing an ultrasound she found a strange sphere in his chest, which he assured her was normal, and an embryo growing in his abdomen which was very much not. Danny laid on the examination table for a solid few seconds and Dr. Tomkins was about to start rattling off his options to him before her patient started crying. "Oh thank the stars."

Danny explained that this was the child of his late husband who was murdered and he was very happy to have this baby. Sure, he had most of his personal affects (he had cleaned out his and Tims shared home and safe houses on his way out of the dimension, much to the absolue ire of the other bats) but this was a little living piece of his husband, which was something so much more.

But this also meant he had to leave again. This worlds Tim was just like the one that he lost and he had no doubt that some way, some how, Tim would find out about this child. Could he explain this in a way that was satisfactory? Could he handle Tim coming in and out of his home to visit "his" child as he would undoubtedly do? Could he stand to see the face of a man who looked like his husband, talked like his husband, and acted like his husband, but wasn't? No. He couldn't do that to himself. He couldn't do that to Tim. He refused to replace one Tim for another. That was so callus and shallow. He would never do something like that, grief or no grief. He was strong. He'd be strong for Tim.

He paid the doctor and thanked her profusely before leaving and going back to his apartment. He hadn't even unpacked most of his stuff before he was packing it all back up again. He needed to find a world where:

1. Tim was nothing like the Tim he had known and loved

2. Tim was not old enough to take custody of thier child if he ever found out

3. Batman was not around

4. Damian didn't exist. He was usually pretty cool with the little gremlin but he doesn't think he could listen to him insult Tim and not throttle a literal child.

5. It was not impossible to raise a child

The list could probably use some work but that was the gist of it for now.

-------

Danny had finally found his perfect Gotham after weeks or interdimentional travel and countless jumps. Well, perfect probably wasn't the right word for a place like Gotham but his point still stands.

He once again found himself sitting on the edge of a rooftop overlooking the city. He and his husband had liked to sit and chat in these kinds of places when patrol was slow. Now Danny was sitting alone in the rain in one of Tims old jackets reminiscing. Suddenly hearing a grapple line connect with the building startled him out of his thoughts.

Nightwing landed nearby and for a moment Danny thought he was here to insist Danny turns himself in again before he was reminded that this wasn't the same Nightwing and Danny hadn't committed any crimes here. Well. No violent ones at least. Forging a fake identity requires much criming as it turns out.

Nightwing approached him slowly and cautiously as if he expected Danny to bolt at any second. That wasn't comforting. "Hey," the big bird greeted calmly, "How about you step away from the edge? If there's something on your mind I'm sure we can talk it out, alright?"

Danny opened his mouth and then shut it again. Opening it again he blurted out, "I'm not gonna jump."

Looking doubtful, Nightwing gestured for him to come toward him and away from the edge, and if Nightwing were anyone other than a bat he would not have obliged as he did. Once Danny was safely away from falling to his doom the vigilante began asking questions.

After everything was answered and birdy was sure Danny was safe, he made a comment about the jacket and Danny told him it belonged to his late husband who past away recently. This led to Dick egging Danny on as he talked about his husband and grieved.

It was then that Danny showed Nightwing his baby bump and the vigilante was excited for him.

Somehow he and the various bats kept running into eachother around the city and one thing let to another. Before he knew it the bats where coming and going in his apartment to "check up on him"

This worlds Tim was still 16 and loved his role as Robin. He was grieving the loss of Bruce but...this version of Tim was different. Full of light. His smile was brighter and came more often. His humor wasn't as dark and...he was...smol. He began seeing this Tim more like his child than as an alternate version of his lover. Needless to say he planned on spoiling Robin rotten.

Everything seemed to be falling into place. He had a steady income, an apartment, some new friends, and was slowly unpacking.

It was smooth sailing up until his dead husband appeared in his apartment in the middle of the night staring him down with Lazarus green eyes. How had this happened? He was Tims husband and he made absolutely sure Tims body had been cremated (another thing the bats were mad about since Bruce and Tim were Jewish). Tim has specifically asked for cremation to avoid a situation like this where Ras got his creepy little hands on him.

But why would Ras send Tim here? How did Tim get here? How did Tim find him? Why did Tim show up in his apartment on random nights and then disappear into the city when he tried to ask him answers? Why did Tim barely speak? Was this a clone or the original?

Was this even real? Or was he finally losing his mind?

No Man’s Land Comics Timeline (and Reading Recommendations)

Made to accompany my No Man’s Land Plot Timeline (for if you want to write fic set in No Man’s Land and want to know when stuff happened). This is the order the comics are in the No Man’s Land Omnibuses and thus the order that I read them in. I've bolded the issues that I really enjoyed and added notes by some others that didn't make the cut but I'd definitely recommend checking out for one reason or another.

Batman: No Man’s Land #1

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #83

Batman #563 - These first three issues really just set the scene for No Man’s Land and do an excellent job of it, you should definitely read them if you’re going to read No Man’s Land

Detective Comics #730

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #51

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #116

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #84

Batman #564 - You can take or leave the story that this issue is a part of, but Leslie Thomkins shows up in this issue and has a nice moment with Bruce

Detective Comics #731

Azrael Agent of the Bat #52

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #117

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #85

Batman #565

Detective Comics #732 - The story in these two issues features some good Barbara Gordon content and her discovery that there’s someone else out acting as Batgirl.

The Batman Chronicles #16

Azrael Agent of the Bat #53

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #118

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #86 - A nice standalone issue about a normal guy in No Man’s Land

Batman #566

Detective Comics #733

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #54 - 55 - I don’t particularly care about Azrael, but this story was pretty good if you do want to read some of his comics. It’s got Baraba Gordon and Leslie Thomkins in it.

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #119

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #87 — A lot of plot hits in these two issues which sets up the next couple story arcs.

Batman #567

Detective Comics #734 — These two issues are the “Mark of Cain” storyline which is where Cassandra’s introduced! Definitely check them out.

Young Justice: No Man’s Land #1 — It’s young justice and just good fun.

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #120 — All the bat-gangs here! Plus, good Helena content.

Robin #67 — Dick and Tim make their way into No Man’s Land together.

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #56

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #57

Batman Chronicles #17 — Specifically, the second story in this is really good.

Nightwing #35

Nightwing #36

Nightwing #37

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #88

Batman #568

Detective Comics #738 — In this story Batman and Robin team up to go against Clayface and they end up making an alliance with Poison Ivy.

Catwoman #72

Catwoman #73

Catwoman #74 — The Catwoman story is just really fun. Plus, Maxie Zeus shows up in it which is always a plus in my book.

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #121 — I can’t in good conscious recommend this as a *good* issue, but it is rather entertaining in a comics sort of way. Batman vs Mr Freeze.

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #89

Batman #569

Detective Comics #736

Robin #68

Robin #69

Robin #70 — The only reason I’m not bolding this is because then I’d basically be recommending all of the Robin comics and I’m trying to hold back at least a little of my biases (I just think the Robin comics are fun, okay?). Anyway, the story in these issues reveals the fact that apparently some of Tim’s old classmates are just hanging out in Gotham’s sewers, larping as their DnD characters, which is honestly one of the more absurd No Man’s Land details.

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #58

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #122

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #90

Batman: #570

Detective Comics #737

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #123

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #91 — The story in these two issues was my favorite in volume 3 of No Man’s Land. You should definitely read it. It’s got everything that really compels me about No Man’s Land — namely people staying and doing the best they can in a city that’s hell on earth.

Batman #571

Detective Comics #738

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #124

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #92 — Superman enters Gotham pt II, this time as Clark Kent.

Batman: No Man’ Land Secret Files #1 — This issue flashes back to the night they blew the bridges. Probably my second favorite story in volume 3, cool stuff with the city itself speaking to some dude. Also, Huntress (my beloved <3) shows up.

Robin #71

Robin #72 —Tim, still recovering from an illness, goes up against Killer Croc. [Also sets up future plot points?]

Batman Chronicles #18

Batman #572

Detective Comics #739 — Jim Gordon, Rene Montoya, and Two Face in a No Man’s Land courtroom drama. Two Face is really good in this.

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #125 — Batman and Jim Gordon finally talk. A really good focus on their relationship

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #59

Catwoman #75

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #93

Nightwing #38

Nightwing #39 — these two issues have that sweet, sweet DickBabs content if that’s your jam.

Batman: No Man’s Land #0 — The origin of Batgirl!Helena as well as Bruce’s return to Gotham.

Batman #573

Detective Comics #740 — A plotty couple of issues, these set the stage for the grand finale.

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #60

Catwoman #76

Catwoman #77 — I’m trying to avoid recommending every issue of vol 4, but these Catwoman issues are just good fun.

Azrael: Agent of the Bat #61 — This has some really nice interactions between Azrael, Barbara, and Cass

Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #126

Batman #574

Detective Comics #741

Robin #73

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #94 — Minus the Robin comic, these last comics are all the concluding arc of No Man’s Land. The Bats vs the Joker and Lex Luthor.

Gotham (TV) for the series ask game

favorite male character: Bruce. That kid actor was SO good.

favorite female character: Selina!!!!!!!!!!1 She was outstanding. She was everything.

least favorite character: hmmmmmm. Honestly, probably Nygma. I didn't LOATHE him but he annoyed me and I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that the tried to pair him with Lee (aka DR LESLIE THOMPKINS). Though if it was an strategy to get me to embrace Gordon/Thomkins, it fucking worked lol.

prettiest character: Lee *-*

funniest character: hmmm... I'm going to go with Oswald because I enjoyed the hell out of his character.

favorite season: the Baby Batcat cut that exists in my brain. But also season 4 ig.

favorite episode: I'm going with 4x05, "A Dark Knight: The Blade's Path." Sorry but having Bruce kill [redacted] and Gordon reassure him that "just because [he's] done it once, doesn't mean [he'll] do it again" fed my fucking crops. Ofc Bruce got to have his wangst about it, but I love that they said "fuck that noise" and purposely differentiated their Bruce from the lot.

favorite romantic ship: Batcat. In case it didn't show.

favorite family ship: I really liked what they did with Oswald and both his parents.

favorite friend ship: Barbara & Lee but they should've also had hate sex. I also liked Selina's friendships with Bridgit or Ivy but. oof.

worst ship: Lee/Nygma WHAT WAS THAT.

#uggggh now i want to rewatch the show AGAIN. terrible. TERRIBLE.#replies #kittykatninja #talking to the void #my thoughts #dc thoughts #dc #gotham

@evilwickedme

I’ve started a new post, cause the Cass one was getting a little long. And we’re talking about DIFFERENT fun characters, now.

I checked the issues, and since you mentioned knowing Huntress, and I assume you know the basics about Babs, Steph, and Alfred, there actually aren’t too many people who might confuse you.

Azrael shows up. By 2000 he’s mostly stable (rather than having a mental breakdown from religious trauma and conditioning, and choosing to express it through spikes and beating up 14 year old Robins). He’s the first person other than Babs (and maybe Bruce) to bond with Cass. They’re cute together.

Sasha Bordeau is Bruce’s bodyguard who he started dating and who then took the fall for some crime to keep him out of trouble. Bruce could have handled things MUCH better, and she rightfully resents him. She later joined a secret organization called Checkmate.

Dr. Leslie Thomkins is a doctor friend of Bruce’s dad. She a pacifist and REALLY doesn’t approve of Bruce’s night job, but was still Batman’s medical assistance for anything too big for Alfred to deal with. Her and Alfred were attracted to each other but recognized that they were both married to their work.

There are a lot of well developed cop characters by this point. You don’t need to know all of them, but they have all sorts of drama going on that I never have the context for, since I don’t read the main Batman titles.

Catwoman shows up as a mostly hero (she has her own area of Gotham she protects at this point).

Bane also shows up. A surprising amount. He is weird. He broke Batman’s back that one time, but during this period he’s thinking he might be Bruce’s half-brother and picking fights with Ra’s al Ghul. Nobody likes this, and it is quite amusing how very definite they are about not liking it.

So, those are more teasers than actual character summaries. But half the fun of comics for me is all the backstory that gets mentioned in passing and never expanded on. So I am sharing the fun. Hopefully this gives you enough info to find out more if that DOESN’T sound very fun ;)
