Unfinished future stories (+ babble)

[iesika]

I have drifted from Fishes. I want to finish it, I really do. Comics are now eating my brain, though. I've mostly finished the Dick/Harry thing (which in my head is called Tom, Dick, and Harry, but I really need a better title than that), but I am still waiting on a report from canonistas as to whether my egyptology curator can in fact make a cameo

...You know, I've only scratched the easily accessable surface of the DC multiverse, but that last page you showed there is everything I ever loved about it. Priceless. :-D

Did I mention everyone is/was a zombie? THE ANTI-LIFE!!! Also, I was reading a Nightwing comic yesterday where the bad guys were stealing the bodies of martyred superheroes to make superzombies. It was all kinds of awesome.

scans_daily is a lj community where people scan portions of their comics - it's not all dc, but it's mostly dc, and it's mostly slashy (or at least extremely slash friendly). Whenever something good happens, there's like a race to post the pages or panels there. It's a good place to dip your toes in...kind of the Good Parts version of the DCU. (Also, there is much crack).

I just realized I forgot to include Booster's drunk-time-traveling accident in my babbling. Because he looses a drinking contest in the wild west and insists on driving the time machine himself, because "who are we going to hit?" and then in the next panel, rear-ends Barry Allen. ("You rear-ended The Flash?" "Oh grow up!")

I would really like to read the AU Tim thing. I love that kind of plot....

I wanted a PWP, but even without being written it's turning into character development (Of the "Batman Needs A Robin sort"). Mostly I want Tim tied up in the cold dark of the empty cave (with just a glimmer of green light from a chemical flare) and Robin running his fingers over his stomach feeling where the scars and muscles aren't, and Tim freaking the fuck out. And this:

Robin: What do you know about the Batman?
Tim: What? Isn't that what Wayne called himself before they stopped him?
Robin: Stopped him?
Tim: Because he was crazy and he wore a mask and a cape and attacked people in the middle of the night!

and

Robin: Did your parents take you to the circus when you were six?
Tim: *creeped out*
Robin: The Flying Graysons were performing...
Tim: OMGWTFGETOUTOFMYHEAD *kicking and screaming*
Robin: Did they fall?
Tim: You sick fuck! Let me go! (cuz, you know, most traumatic moment of his life - he watched three people die, including the 12 year old boy who was so nice to him before the show...)

I can't find the scans now, that inspired this. There was an actual occurence in the Robin comics where, through a time anomalie, Tim!Robin meets Dick!Robin, and they go for a ride in the Redbird. And I kept waiting for Dick to say "Let's make out!" a la xkcd.

(Then I found where somebody wrote that, only now I can't find that either. Anyway, that's where this came from).
