So about the Batfamily and ghosts...

So I was looking through the DPxDC tag and just... Ghosts are actually like a known thing that Batman and Co. know that they sometimes have to deal with...? Batman does sometimes need to deal with supernatural threats, including spirits and ghosts among other things (Solomon Grundy is an undead gangster and tends to live in Gotham's sewers. Jason Blood can turn into the demon Etrigan and he often lives in Gotham). So Bruce and company would ABSOLUTELY believe that Danny is a ghost by the time the rest of the Batfam is there once Danny shows off his ability to turn intangible and fly.

As two examples of ghosts that are not uncommon for Batman and squad to have to deal with, on the rogues side, you have Gentleman Ghost aka James Craddock.

Who was a 19th century thief/highwayman before he was killed and cursed to never be able to pass on. He tends to travel around, stealing things and causing general mischief, so Batman sometimes runs into and has to deal with him. Also he's British by the by, so have fun with that! (Also you know. His character design is just rad as hell so I personally always love to see him pop up in things!)

And on the heroic side you have Deadman aka Boston Brand.

(Yes, he did die in those clothes.) He was an aerolist acrobat (he did much of the same type of things that Dick Grayson did at the circus) who died during a performance and was unable to pass on until he found his killer... But then decided to stick around anyway to help the Justice League out where he can. Normal people typically cannot see nor hear him, so he has to possess others to be able to communicate with the living.

So yes! Batman and family do know that ghosts exist and have dealt with them before! And in fact, they have special equipment to deal with them and other supernatural foes they may face! Specifically they have access to the material known as Nth Metal, which is able to effect and hurt ghosts even when intangible otherwise. They have batarangs made of Nth metal, but Nth metal can be used to make anything that you can use metal for. So Nth metal knuckles or handcuffs are not out of the question. Nth metal does tend to be pretty rare on Earth, but eh. Brucie is rich af so that's not much of a problem for the bats.

So there you go! Some info on Batman and his experiences with ghosts! I hope you find this useful and can use some of these pieces of information in your fics and headcanons or whatever! This has been a PSA!

I’m currently reading GG’s (Gentleman Ghost) comics that he appears in cuz I’m obsessed… but I have fallen in love with him and Shayera’s relationship (platonic or otherwise).

So here’s a mini comp of some of my favorite moments of theirs:

This was when they weren’t that friendly with each other, not sure if she can trust him yet

(source is from: Hawkman special #1)

Next up, they’re starting to get along! They’re on friendly terms but not quite friends yet. Craddock is a lot more friendly towards her than her husband.

(Source: DC Comics Presents issue #95)

A couple issues later, they’re officially friends, they trust each other! This part made me die from happiness, they’re literally so cute! 🥰

Slight bonus, it confirms Craddock cares for both of the Hawks which is adorable!

(Source: Hawkman vol 2, issue #6 & 10)

Shayera joins a portal that Craddock (who was basically forced to invite her in) was in without barely any hesitation…they officially share a bond!!!

(Source: Hawkman vol 2, #16)

In conclusion…

They’re besties, your honor!!! 🥰
