Imagining the various ways Batman and Brucie intersect from Jim Gordon’s POV and the funniest one my brain can come up with is:
Batman, examining the crime scene: “…you can’t do cocaine like that.”
Jim Gordon: “Wait. You can’t?”
Batman: “It’s not — if you try to inhale it like he did, you’d choke. But you wouldn’t die. Not even if it was laced with something.”
Jim Gordon, peering over his shoulder: “Uh huh.”
Batman:
Jim Gordon:
Batman:
Jim Gordon: “Why do you know so much about how to do coke?”
old stuff. i just love this little sketch sm ((
Picturing Martha and Thomas- especially Thomas- as shallow aristocrats who just don't quite understand everything that Bruce has become. Why he has so endeavored to stopping crime, to adopting children, to throwing all that he is to "fix" Gotham. Their idea of activism is typical- galas and programs that can be deductible on taxes. Not whatever Bruce has gotten mixed up with, with no sleep, saving people they don't see as valuable like addicts and people who 'got themselves into their own mess" with familial cycles. and they REALLY just don't understand his children at all. (this applies more to Thomas overall, because of some depictions in the comics. I should really just write my own story but I LOVE the idea that Bruce has glorified his parents much, and thought that his goodness came from them, when it really came from himself.)
*resists the urge to write this fic too* oh my god what if they're only good in his memory. what if he and everyone else idolized them because they were dead. what if they were flawed and sometimes selfish and don't want to help Gotham like Bruce does. what if Bruce has to reconcile his mission with their current beliefs. what if they don't like his kids? WHAT IF THEY DON'T LIKE HIS KIDS??
Aside from just being really cool, I loved this Hercules-referencing panel because Alfred mentioned how Batman's mythos is just starting (in this comic), a few panels back there was a reference to Ancient Greece, and he's armourless, fighting in a public colosseum observed by beaten down Gothamites to win back their city.
nothing gives me more of a contradictory sensation of equal hope and despair when i see the biggest idiots succeed in life
