Something I forgot to post back in July 💀
I was watching some Batman TAS and wanted to sketch the boys and what they might look like in my style. I owe so much of my art style and passion for storytelling to the…. Timm-verse(?) versions of these characters.

Something a little unorthodox for Valentine’s Day, for those who both love unorthodox and have watched the Bruce Timm-animated Justice League, Question the kooky masked detective superhero and his vengeful, hot-tempered beau Huntress striking fear into the criminal underworld, kicking butts and spending some quality time together. While Huntress flattens bad guys with her raw, visceral fighting moves, even Question can get a little frightened by her, but also can’t help enjoying the way she looms menacingly over him. Even when surrounded by goons in an alley, they can fight back like cornered hounds. Huntress also makes the perfect brawler for Question when he has to access a computer room, laying into thugs with no-holds-barred ferocity. Of course sometimes she wants him to relax and join her for a few rooftop smooches over a view of the city. Even when captured and with her hands chained, Huntress is still a danger as she chokes her captor between her legs while Question lends a hand, or fist even. To cap it off, the detective and vigilante kiss in a moonlight cityscape, keeping thugs from interrupting their moment with two quick punches.

JLU: The Superboy Files
Tumblr media
So I’ve gotten sucked into the ‘Clark Kent is Kon-El | Conner Kent's Parent’ tag lately and rediscovered a fic that had been started, Catching Icarus by Fantasyfire. After a few rereads some inspiration hit me and demanded I write my own version of how Clark and Kara would handle Superboy just suddenly appearing.
So without further ado, the first chapter!
I’ll be updating every Saturday 😉

*At Bruce's parents' grave*
"It doesn't mean I don't care anymore. I don't want to let you down, honest, but... but it just doesn't hurt so bad anymore. You can understand that, can't you? Look, I can give money to the city - they can hire more cops. Let someone else take the risk, but it's different now!"
*thunder and lightning*
"Please! I need it to be different now. I know I made a promise, but I didn't see this coming. I didn't count on being happy."
*thunder and lightning*
"Please! Tell me that it's okay."
*Bruce hears a voice from behind him. Its Andrea*
"Maybe they already have. Maybe they sent me."
*They embrace in the rain*
Happy 30th Anniversary to Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
December 25th 1993-December 25th 2023

Just started rewatching Superman: The Animated Series. A big part of what’s making this hold up is that while it’s clearly a children’s show, it’s also very much a show about Adults With Jobs. Half the supervillain schemes and backstories in the first six episodes involve some form of white-collar crime. The cast hang out in an office and procrastinate on company time. It’s all, like, a very paired down version of adulthood, for legibility to children, but it’s recognizable. It’s also significantly less frenetic than a lot of contemporary animation; the characters speak at a more measured pace, they go on little digressions, they don’t make a joke every six seconds, the jokes they do make tend to be fairly understated, and the character movements are more naturalistic and rarely snappy or exaggerated. When I say they don’t make them like this anymore, I don’t think I’m being obtusely nostalgic, I think that there are some design philosophies at work in this show that have fallen out of favor these days. At a bare minimum I can’t think of a recent animated show with adult protagonists where that, in itself, isn’t a marker that the show is for adults.

Which bruce wayne is ur favourite? (ex. Christian Bale, Robert Patterson) and follow up question why? -🐰
bunny, im so glad you asked. how much time do you have
i don't care about robert pattinson, i did not care about the batman (2022). i'm sure i'll do a full analysis once i'm able to establish my credentials as a lifelong batman fan, but there was a lot that fell so short for me.
christian bale was an exceptional bruce wayne, which is arguably as impossible a role to fill as the role of batman is. i loved bale's aloof and smug nature as bruce, his confidence and faults, but i can not stand his portrayal of batman. not only is the suit design egregious and unflattering, whoever helped him develop his bat-voice was a terrible guide. bale did his best, don't get me wrong, truly i can hear him giving his all and shredding his vocal chords in the process, but it was simply awful to listen to. the dark knight (2008) is still a rewatch-worthy movie of course, but batman begins (2005) & the dark knight rises (2012) was not memorable nor revolutionary. they pale in comparison to the middle of the trilogy.
more (and a TDLR at the bottom) under the cut:
i thought michael keaton's portrayal of both bruce and batman in batman (1989) and batman returns (1992) was boring. any personality he may have tried to bring to batman was washed out by tim burton trying to fit so much of... well... tim burton into something that didn't need any more of that injection. don't get me wrong, stylistically it's appealing, but if you told me that keaton just showed up and started acting as michael keaton instead of bruce wayne i'd believe you because there is no clear distinction between the two. the second movie was way more enjoyable to watch but it was because of elements that had... virtually nothing to do with bruce/batman. it was devito's penguin, and pfieffer's catwoman (and her subplot) that held my attention. i think it's definitely a burton movie, which is fine, and his morbid takes on those characters are interesting, but it was not a defining movie for bruce/batman. it honestly could've been better without batman entirely or benched as a side character / the antagonist.
batman forever (1995) is my secret favorite live action portrayal. val kilmer had bale's charisma when it came to bruce wayne, and gave batman a unique personality that i adored. he didn't shred his vocal chords to give batman a deeper voice either, instead gave himself an elegant yet commanding edge that reminded me of what i admired about kevin conroy's batman voice. as campy as it is, i love so much of what they did with this movie. i often think of it as a standalone vs it being actually a part of the "burtonverse." especially because batman & robin (1997) is supposed to be part of that franchise and i cannot tell you a single thing that happened in that movie besides maybe uma thurman.
another secret live-action favorite of mine was the foundational movie of adam west's portrayal in batman: the movie (1966) and i will elaborate on that another time either by someone's solicitation or my own hyperfixation driven wills.
now that the live-action shit is out of the way, let's get to the real winners.
the dcau or "timmverse" (bruce timm) or "diniverse" (paul dini) is the name for the dc animated universe franchise during 1992 - 2006 which includes loads of favorite shows/movies of mine. which leads me to say: my favorite portrayals of bruce wayne and batman of all time, is kevin conroy's from justice league (2001 - 2004) and justice league unlimited (2004 - 2006). those two might not be as solid as a legend like batman: the animated series (1992 - 1995) where conroy made his debut, but they were one of my introductory pieces to his portrayal and are a source of a lot of love and nostalgia that still hold up today as a twenty-one year old vs elementary school when i first discovered them. i stayed up til the AM watching them which i had never done before that (it was 7am). i would rewatch my favorite episodes over and over again which i have never done for any other show.
as many have already agreed, conroy was the definitive voice of batman for decades. his beginnings in the legendary batman: the animated series (1991 - 1995) put him on the map as bruce's most recognizable VA, and he went on to voice him in many adaptations that i also adore. a few examples are batman beyond (1999 - 2001) and the rocksteady arkham video game series (2009 - 2015). not only did he form a dynamic duo with mark hamill's joker (who is also so important for the joker's character, but i can't elaborate on that here without a terrific tangent) which employed one of the most potent examples of chemistry i've ever seen in media, but i would've trusted conroy's expertise on bruce/batman to the ends of the earth. he cared about that character, and he showed it in every faithful adaptation he performed. trustworthy and admirable, conroy is hands down the best batman by far, and did justice to his characterization that defined my love for the character. without conroy who brought him alive, i doubt i'd be into batman as much as i am or for as long as i have.
i knew that writing this post i'd get emotional. it's been a year since conroy's death in november 2022. i still remember the night before the news and how i had coincidentally imagined a world without him, come to find out the very next day that he had passed away. i remember exactly where i was when i found out, i remember exactly what i did after. he had honestly been a part of life through batman for almost the entirety of it. he was the celebrity i always wanted to meet, no one was important enough to me to go through that trouble. but conroy was worth it to me, and i missed out on the chance before he passed away. i heard he was always so personable and so kind, and who could ask for better from batman, you know? god there's so much more i could say, but i dont want to be disrespectful to his family who i'm sure miss him terribly, and are the ones that experienced that loss. in the grand scheme of things, i was nothing to him and that's fine, but i'm just very proud of him.
TDLR the character bruce wayne / batman portrayals in any live action adaptations fell short when it comes to animated adaptations of his character. batman forever (1995) is my favorite live-action movie, but it's nothing compared to my love for the voice acting of kevin conroy's bruce wayne / batman in justice league (2001 - 2004) / justice league unlimited (2004 - 2006).
