I made this quickly-crafted bookmark today 🦇💝...decorative tape, paper, and marker 🪄🔖😉.

This character qoute defines how my mom and I feel right now.

We're frightened FOR our county, state, & country. We are terrified FOR wildlife and Mother Nature. We are horrified FOR girls, Children, and women. We fear FOR our Californians, both born and immigrant. We are worried FOR our Indigenous Americans being mistakenly targeted by ICE.

👇

AnnCrystal But we ourselves are not frightened, we are infuriated about what is happening.

Every morning and evening we turn to our Catholic God. We relinquish to Him our anger and feel like He gifts us Hope in return.

We believe that this turns our fury into fuel.

My mom has her outlets, and Litsy has become mine.

Thank you Littens for your patience with my posts. I will always be thankful that I was met with such kindness and understanding here 😘📚💝

This is a Batman at the start of his career story.

It follows on from another story but works as a standalone.

I was surprised by this one as it had a vampire theme to it and was surprisingly violent.

It's a Batman battles a vampire cult story, and I enjoyed it a lot.

I thought I'd reread this since I liked the *idea* of Cassandra Cain. I feel her Batgirl design is unsexualised and batlike in a pretty neat way, but I don't love a lot of the art in this one, and it's hard to fully follow without context.

How crazy is my obsession with Batman?

When I first watched the TV commercial for this product, I immediately considered it perfect...for a mini Bat-Signal 😂.

Oh yes. I love the vintage feel, the sense of going back to Batgirl's orgins now, in a way that obviously plays off lore that has developed over the years, e.g. the Oracle/Cassandra references, the hint of something with Dick, the ominous whisper in references to the Joker.
The writers and artists did a great job of presenting a recognizable character with a bit more youthful hubris and pep, 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? contrasted by a more dour, demanding figure in the Batman, and a truly creepy villain in the arsonist/murderer Firefly. Killer Moth continues to flabbergast me by his unique brand of clueless chutzpah and the fact he has yet to expire though his own foolishness.
I enjoyed the balance between depicting a young woman frustrated by the limiting requirements of ideal career fields, a repeated pattern of men telling her she literally didn't
1mo
Robotswithpersonality 3/? measure up, showcased alongside a forthrightness in all things - if the young men around her are going to vague flirt, she's stating clearly 'ask me out or go away'. She's also clear with Robin when he needs to back off with the more-than-just-flirting.
Back to the vintage style I mentioned, there's some dated terms that Babara is using to refer to Black Canary, bad she is consistently acknowledging when her efforts are overshadowed by more
1mo
Robotswithpersonality 4/4 established heroes in the mix, but I'll take the positive that she's her own advocate, similar to incapacitating the purse snatcher, it's still nice to see proto-feminist messaging especially if the comic feels like it might be marketed to a younger audience. 🤷🏼‍♂️ (edited) 1mo

In comparison to other manga series I read, this one feels more “serious” (it has fewer funny moments and the characters are competing against each other), and that was hard to get into. Also the art felt dark and hard to follow, and there weren‘t enough female characters.

50/100 The first of a series, where corporations have their own superheroes, and make contracts to protect people and property. It doesn't really work as a superhero story, but as a work place comedy, it's actually pretty funny. Andrea starts as a fish out of water, but quickly comes to be invaluable to C.U.P. I don't know if I'll listen to more of the series, but I enjoyed this one. 3.75/5 ⭐ #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

I really enjoyed this series, more so than a lot of older comics I've read recently. Batman is settling into his role in Gotham when a villain known as the Reaper starts to terrorize the city. A vigilante from the past, the Reaper's return rattles Batman, as he is a violent, murderous reflection of our dark knight. Batman has to reconcile with his own self-imposed limits while also confronting Joe Chill in a fascinating side story.

TieDyeDude Some excellent art from the legendary Todd McFarlane. Also, always a sign of a good story when Dr. Leslie Tompkins is involved, IMO. 2mo
AnnCrystal Classic art 🤩🦇💫. 2mo

Batman's Killing Time is an obnoxiously consistent non-linear story that could have easily been a masterpiece. I ended up DNF'ing this one around the 65% mark. Tom King is a fantastic creator. I highly recommend both The Human Target & Rorschach. There were elements of this I liked quite a bit, however the elements that did not work were too big of distractions.
