Any recs for general batfam blogs? Like everything in one place and good characterization

Some of these blogs just record canon moments, some write about their opinions, some are open to answering your questions, some have been inactive for years but still contain good info, and some just have really neat tagging systems.
Disclaimer: Some of these blogs may ships things that you don't ship. Half these blogs might have drama with each other, or even with me. I don't know. Et cetera, et cetera.
creature in fiction: *is portrayed as bad and mean*
8 year old me: but what if there was a good and nice one :0
there’s no age limit for this
youre right…………..
me at 8: but what if you gave it a hug?
me at 31: but what if you gave it a hug?
The neurodivergent reaction to bad and mean creatures: but what if someone loved this unlovable thing? Maybe it would be possible for me, also a strange and burdensome and unlovable thing, to be loved as well?
blonde…
fail
I'm Irish so naturally I am obliged to do him in a silly Irish-inspired fit for St. Patrick's Day, lmao. Kinda rushed this, didn't have time to do anything too special with the design or polish it...
Anyway, lá fhéile Pádraig sona dhuit. ^^

Ok so this is much less moving than the original, but hehe shapes
I am once again coming up with personal designs for DC characters with absolutely no regards to comic book canon.
Batman: Justice Buster #9 - "Running Bat" (2024)
written by Eiichi Shimizu art by Tomohiro Shimoguchi
Red Hood: The Hill #2 - "Heavy is the Head…" (2024)
written by Shawn Martinbrough art by Sanford Greene & Matt Herms
This sounds like blasphemy but I really love the black trousers as opposed to the classic matching pants and coat. I prefer less of a direct split design in general, but I especially love how it brings a b&w contrast with my beloved white turtleneck design.
My designs for Harvey Dent, Gilda Dent, and Two-Face*
*outfits and colour may vary between posts. (I am going by classic colours rn but I might switch it up in the future.)
I jus think theyre rad :-)
Huge fan of whatever the fuck version this is
