Batman (1940-) #426

Funniest thing about Cass becoming the next Batman is if she also has to play up the frivolous multi-millionaire act.

Debutante Cass needing to pretend to be the lucky orphan picked up by Bruce Wayne in some little village in some East Asian country no white person has ever heard of nor cared about.

Cass playing the part of the spoiled, air-headed heiress, which turns out to be shockingly easy because rich people clutch their pearls when she stirs her coffee with the dessert spoon. She's a little disappointed because she watched Legally Blonde and Clueless like 50 times each to memorize and prepare lines.

Cassandra Wayne, wild heiress going to drug-filled parties (to trace the stuff back to the supplier) and hiring sex workers (to investigate whether or not they're human trafficking victims).

Cass attending charity events for photo ops with the most awkward forced smile you can imagine.

I loved this moment, that Jason is Going Through It right now and he still has a moment of pure selfless heroism, that no matter what else he has or hasn't done, this is a moment that shows HELL YEAH JASON TODD CARES ABOUT PEOPLE AND WILL NOT JUST PUT HIMSELF IN DANGER BUT WILL GET UP AND MAKE HIMSELF DO THE THING TO HELP A KID EVEN WHEN IT FEELS IMPOSSIBLE, EVEN WHEN HIS ENTIRE BODY IS WORKING AGAINST HIM, JASON TODD IS A HERO.

Brought the huge ace flag out over the weekend.

does anybody else feel like the problem with current batman writers is that they're writing male power fantasies and they have no concept of who they're writing for? because idk anybody who wants to read about bruce being an abusive dad, it's depressing. it's sad. it's NOT batman. it's something completely different from the batman i remember. like they're not writing a hero, they're writing a narcissist with control issues who has wrapped himself in the cloak of being a good person. and i cant look at a man whose supposed to be a father and a mentor, reguarly choosing to abandon his kids, dump his responsibilities on the one kid who wants nothing more than to make his own choices, and beating "morals" into one....it's all wrong. you cant be a good person, a HERO, and consistently choose inflicting long lasting physical, mental, and emotional scars on people you call family.

Neither of us are straight, Charlie.
