who are your favorite writers of bruce and the dynamics he has w other batfam ? i remember you mentioning some writers you specifically dislike lol but im interested in some genuine recs :)
this is a very late answer and i apologize for that! off the top of my head:
bruce and dick: mike w. barr (early to mid 80s). his stuff for these two is far and few in between like it's a few back pages stories and then the occasional crossover between the titans and outsiders but i really adore how he writes bruce as this concerned parent who can sometimes be overbearing and protective but ultimately wants dick to succeed and so when dick feels suffocated bruce is more than willing to correct himself and back off. like it achieves the two things of holding bruce accountable while not painting him like some emotionally stunted abuser who makes all of dick's choices for him so i appreciate it loads
bruce and jason: mike w. barr (early to mid 80s); max allan collins (post-crisis intro arc). i don't think there is a lot to say here like they're the two writers who are probably the most sympathetic to jason as a human being and hence the way they write bruce's relationship with him is really nice. i'm not a fan of starlin or winick for obv reasons
bruce and tim: alan grant (early to mid 90s). alan grant to me was the perfect person to bring in following dick and jason's exit bc he provided the perfect amount of introspection and self-awareness for bruce to actually be a quite practical mentor to tim. like admittedly yeah a lot of that went down the drain once knightfall happened but i nonetheless think this was bruce at his most active and corrective stage of mentorship bc he was more aware of the consequences of his choices and really wanted to instill in tim that this wasn't a game they were playing at
bruce and stephanie: there's like one issue of gotham knights, #22, written by devin grayson (i know. i know) that i absolutely cling to bc it's really the first (and only) glimmer of hope for steph's relationship with bruce i think. like after multiple issues of tim and bruce being total dickhead misogynists to steph bc this kind of thing is absolutely unavoidable in dixon's writing it's so nice to see a bruce who is awkward but appreciative of steph's effort and unbothered by her tendency to babble bc it fills the quiet. i wanted that explored more between them sooooo badly but unfortunately scott beaty (i think. cmiiw) went on the whole bruce calling steph an inadequate failure shtick and ruined my life forever and i never read a batman comic again
bruce and leslie: mike w. barr (smattering across 80s and 90s). i would say the most heavy handed work to develop leslie as a foil to bruce adamant on pacifism was done by barr. barr in general was probably the most left leaning writer in bat editorial pre-00s so while his politics are not perfect (he tends to believe that violence by both the oppressed and the oppressor is bad) he was able to capitalize on leslie's relationship with bruce the most and i'm very fond of legends of the dark knight #21-23
bruce and selina: bob kane (golden age); mindy newell (late 80s to early 90s). the latter is obv a given if you have been a follower of mine for a while. but i don't think i've spoken on here specifically about how kane truly paints the most distinct picture of selina at her core that miller and newell subsequently capitalized on in their own setting of gotham following the crisis. there's nothing better than catwoman's golden age appearances to convey her thirst for notoriety contrasted with her odd mercies and while it's passed off as a bit of a joke that bruce lets things slide with her bc he thinks she's pretty i also love that it opens the way for him to be sympathetic to her in general, bc he knows she's better than she presents herself to be. bruce should always implicitly trust selina against other people's judgment imo
bruce and talia: mike w. barr (80s into early 90s). i recognize i am developing a pattern here lmao i truly love this man's writing more than that of any other bat writer! but yeah i think there is no one who really understands the complex loyalties and yearning of this dynamic better than barr and more importantly who manages to respect talia's individual agency within that dynamic. he really posits them as equals without any sort of disdain factoring into it and i think it sets him apart from a lot of other writers in the same era
these are the dynamics i can speak to. i've unfortunately never paid close enough attention to writers on issues where bruce's relationships with either gordon feature and then you guys already know i've yet to read up on cass and duke (cries) so i'm no good in that department :/ but i hope these are somewhat useful! the mike w. barr stuff is easy to find if you simply peruse his wikipedia and read all of the batman related stuff and then alan grant is obv the main writer on tec (iirc) for most of the 90s so that's easy enough. mindy newell also has a very small catalogue to her name and the golden age issues with selina you can find through dcu chronology!
[A Temporary title until I can discuss the overall title more with @monkie-deej ]
[The summary and shared cast will be listed below :3c. Would love to add a few more folks to our cast if anyone is interested in the selfship and OC community. <3 Censored for safety purposes.]
♡ -Mainesthai/Mai/Mania/Keely [belongs to/is me] -love interests are Ry.o Asu.ka/Sa.tan and Demon King Z.ennon. Mainesthai is a flighty, naturally anxious riddled ball of fear and anxiety. He listens with the keenest instructions to be followed exactly, but he struggles to maintain even himself at the behest of his natural emissions of his unsettling aura. An understudy of King Z.ennon and a fierce protector of his Lord Sa.tan, upon tasking himself with protecting him. Sa.tan is naturally immune to the manic auras that Mai emits. He, for his entire existence kept his feelings for Z.ennon as well, but struggled time and time again through his bouts of anxiety and attempts to maintain Mania, that he is even unsure of how to speak of them. In his life tied to Keely, fate instantly tied him to Ry.o, Sa.tan's mortal guise. Quite an interesting twist!
✕ ⋅ ─[Themes]: Blue Oyster Cult-Burnin' For You, Funeral Portrait-Holy Water, Phil Collins-Something Happened on the Way to Heaven,
♡ -Arrath/Err/Devin [belongs to/is @monkie-deej] -love interest is Am.on/Ak.ira Fudo/Devil.man. Am.on is a devilish loner. He's usually feared by most, but revered by higher beings. He's practically untouchable, even in any emotional ways, as well-until the similarly loner devil, Err made himself known to Am.on's territory. He's smaller, angrier, jaded and meaner. He is quite a match for the red devil, but he soon discovers that Err needs guidance, and Am.on's heart becomes quite attached. Who says devils can't truly find love? They seemingly find each other again in present life as Err attaches his demonic being to unsuspecting human, Devin, who is a wayward loner similarly to the devil Err. He finds himself immediately drawn to Ak.ira, especially when he found himself exposed to the Devil.man in action on one fateful night.
♡ -Opal/Devilbun [belongs to @anoddopal] -love interest is the lovely demon bird lady, herself, Sire.ne. <3 [she prefers to keep summaries and all to herself, so i'll leave that for her to disclose/or i'll add when she's okay with it].
