You think the people of Fawcett City are ever just like: “Yeah, that one alleyway outside of the Whiz Radio station is always struck by lightning during the day. But no one gets hurt so whatever.”
Captain Marvel (DC) panels/screenshots + tumblr posts. Inspiration struck
Whenever I don’t get why a bunch of people find some dude attractive and I later find a fan drawing of the dude as a butch woman I just…
I just gotta take a moment to think about how gay that makes me.
Fine, I get the fucking hype about Hugh Jackman now, ok?
Queer women, do yourself a favour and go have a look at the fanart of the butch woman version of wolverine.
Barbara Gordon is simultaneously a dork loser and one of the most dangerous people on the planet. You must understand this.
Have some de-aged Batman.
You can’t convince me that Batman wasn’t a angsty teen full of spite and anger.

Superman: “so, in the future you become a vigilante named Batman!”
Bruce, sitting cross legged in the corner of the room refusing to go near any of the JL: “I fucking hate bats, I swear those little flying rat-like shits want to kill me”
Flash, a look of pure shock on his face: “Batman was scared of bats?!?!?”
Green Lantern, wheezing with surprised laughter: “BATMAN WAS SCARED OF BATS!!!”
———
Bruce, staring at Green Arrow: “Ollie”
Green Arrow: “Bruce”
Bruce, looking Green arrow up and down with a judgmental look on his face: “you’ve aged-”
Green Arrow trying to finish his sentence: “well?”
Bruce, completely deadpan: “no”
Green Arrow: “…”
Bruce: “…”
Green Arrow turning around and speed walking away: “Okay! Bye!”

Bruce, pulling out a cigarette from nowhere and then lighting it with some random lighter.
Superman, nervously walking up to Bruce because he doesn’t know how to act around him: “hey Bruce? You shouldn’t be smoking in the watchtower… or like, anywhere”
Bruce just staring at him now: “…”
Superman, practically sweating now: “y’know, cause you’re… well… 16?”
Bruce, with a look of complete seriousness: “I’ll stop smoking when I inevitably smash a hole through one of the windows and let myself —and hopefully everyone else— get sucked into space to freeze and die”
Superman, backing away while trying to figure out if he was joking or not: “okay I’m just going to go now…”
———
Bruce: “so you can make anything with that ring?”
Green Lantern: “yep! Anything”
Bruce: “can you make a crowbar?”
Green Lantern, thinking he’s bonding with Bruce and conjures up a crowbar: “yeah”
Bruce, grabs the crowbar without warning and throws it at Green Arrow’s meeting chair, effectively making a huge dent in it.
Bruce: “cool” *walks away*
Green Lantern: *horrified and confused*
No but I seriously can't even fathom how painful Cassandra's existence has to be.
Like, we explore exactly how horrible witnessing death is for Cassandra, she reads the pain and the understanding and the regret on a dying body, she experiences death along with its victim on real time, she is the one human being who will never get desensitized to seeing a person dying, it is even worse for her than for anyone else, and she is surrounded by death
Her entire dedicated rogue's gallery (David Cain, Shiva, the Mad Dog, the Unburied, etc) makes a point of killing any and all by-standers and she always has to see it
Imagine the most traumatic death you have ever seen or heard about, imagine the grief or the disgust you felt when you first came across it, imagine experiencing that at the same time you experience the pain of the dying person and then imagine reliving that memory two, three, ten, twenty times every night and it's always like the first time and you never get used to it, and you'd be imagining a normal Tuesday for Cassandra as Batgirl
It's agonizing, my legs shake just thinking about it, I can't even picture getting up from my bed every morning with that curse over my head. And you're telling me Cassandra, this normal human without powers and with a support network that is lackluster on a good day, not only gets up every morning but lives with it? That she can manage a semblance of normality? How much willpower does it take? I am truly floored by how amazing Cassandra is.
It’s not a hint if I outright tell you THIS IS A SIGN!!!
Y’know the classic “Billy de-transforms from Captain Marvel back into Billy and the JL think he’s been de-aged so Billy has to pretend to be from ancient times” thing?
I want someone to write that but with Captain Marvel and Billy being separate people like they are in the old comics.
So it’s just Billy either not knowing shit about how to act like a young Cap or Billy not giving a fuck about acting and just him leaving the JL really confused about how Cap was like this when he was young.
cassandra cain incorrect quotes:
cass:
explanation: it’s incorrect because cass is not actually mute
does anyone wanna hold hands until we feel a little braver
There's this trend I'm calling "Over-corrective fanon." Where you have a commonly held opinion in fandom that is seen as inaccurate. In response, a new headcanon springs out, usually designed to combat the first fanon by swinging in the complete opposite direction.
For example, let's pick an obvious one: Combating the 'Dick Grayson was the ray of sunshine" by going "Dick was actually an angry kid! Jason thought Robin was magic."
None of the Robins were "The Angry Robin" They all had varying emotions, and boiling them down to one extreme or the other is just not embracing the character in the entirety.
Read Superman/Shazam: First Thunder and genuinely cried over it and had the most gut wrenching thought...
Clark's knows exactly how it feels for the world to have their eyes on him always. He knows what it's like for the world to fear him as Superman, and as much as they've come to trust him, the instant Superman acts out or 'has a bad day', he knows he will become the villian. The big scary alien guy with impossible powers who could destroy the world. Even one little outburst, one tiny flicker of anything other than hope and joy, and the trust he's worked so hard to build will crumble.
Billy is young. He's new. He doesn't know this. He acts out in frustration and anger and sarrow, and he doesn't know how to cope with these impossible standards. He's just a little boy who wants to cry and throw things, but Captain Marvel throwing a tantrum could destroy a city. He probably feels like a caged animal, unable to let out any of those feelings, lashing out and running away. He doesn't have the same self-control as Clark and is almost self-destructive in a sense.
Of course, Clark immediately feels strongly about Billy just being a kid. Clark was once a little boy with powers he couldn't fully control and knew exactly how it felt to be teetering on the edge of "everyone hates me, I'm a monster," mindsets. He probably feels so much kinship and understanding, and he gets defensive over it. Clark was so ready to throw hands with the wizard for Billy, then immediately went to Billy to comfort him and be like, "we're both just people. We're the same. You aren't alone."
Sobbing very hard </3.
