he was sooooo pissed this dipshit was getting those blocks stuck in the pipe

I’m tired of purity police batfam fans trying to force their personal interpretation of decades old comic book characters on everyone.

Bruce is not a “good dad” or even a dad at all in many canons. You’re free to only enjoy content where he is a wholesome good dad but it’s not “bad writing” or “out of character” every time Bruce hits one of the Batkids or says something insensitive or generally is an asshole. Bruce is a severely traumatized man who has centered his life around his rage and desire for vengeance which has also isolated him from most meaningful relationships, he’s not going to suddenly have the emotional maturity and interpersonal skills to be a doting, perfect father figure. There are definitely writers who take it way too far like Tom King’s obsession with Bruce torturing the Robins and only caring about Selina. Or writers who portray him as not caring about Jason or even hating him when Jason’s death literally was the most impactful in his life other than his parents.

But Bruce is often far from an ideal father-figure even when he’s well-written and in character especially to Dick and Jason, I would argue he really wasn’t even that fatherly to them - he treated them more like his bros because Bruce is a case of arrested development, he was not much more mature than Dick and Jason until Jason’s death forced him to grow up and reevaluate. Exploring Bruce’s complexity and greyness in context of how his actions affect those around him doesn’t make someone a bad fan, it’s in fact more based in the text that the overly fluffy big happy bat family (which is again fine to enjoy, but I’m sick of the superiority complex like anyone who likes anything darker and more complex than that is not “pure” 🙄).

And as for the “incest” ship shaming. Even setting aside that it’s fiction and fictional incest has no impact on real incestous abuse. The “Batfam” overall isn’t equatable to a real life adoptive family except in fanon and some recent comics, it’s a complex found family where each characters have unique relationships with each other (many of which don’t resemble actual family relationships). Batman and Robin were not father-son in comics until recently, in fact they were an important queer symbol for older queer folks and a lot of queer people aren’t happy with them being turned into a father-son dynamic and suddenly demonizing a classic queer ship as “perverted” and “predatory”. Dick and Jason and Tim didn’t grow up together as siblings and again whether they even see Bruce as a “dad” varies a lot. Tim doesn’t consider Bruce his actual dad and neither does Barbara because they have dads already. He’s a mentor figure at most, not their parent. It’s one fanon interpretation that every single one of them sees Bruce as a literal father and each other as literal siblings, there are many other valid interpretations of these relationships and it’s annoying when one fanon view takes over to the point where anyone who sees characters with countless interpretations differently is labeled and excluded.

Reuploading cause I realized I put LEAD and not LEAVE.

Anyways a Sad boi to add.

Next up is Damian!

Ever since I saw that *one* panel, I couldn't stop thinking about the sad scared baby girl.

Just to make a point, every time I finished a panel of this I would export it as a PNG on the perceptual setting and use it as a color reference for the next panel

IT'S BAD

PLEASE CHECK YOUR COLOR SETTINGS

EDIT: If you're still having problems, it might help to switch from "Save/Save as" to "Export (as a) Single Layer". Just. Make SURE the box labeled "Expression Color" is set to RGB. I've been messing with this all day, and it looks like this combination of settings will allow exported PNGs to maintain their colors perfectly. To you. So far both Discord and Toyhouse still only display desaturated images and I cannot for the life of me figure out why

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN ITS NOT JUST A MAC PROBLEM

GUYS IT HAPPENS WITH KRITA TOO

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

THAT'S WHY

THAT'S WHY EVERYTHING I POST IS DESATURATED FROM THE ORIGINAL

OH MY GOD

NOT ANYMORE FUCKER
