icon battle  

So who wants to do a Batfam comics icon battle?


participants:
[livejournal.com profile] sucksucksmile
[livejournal.com profile] geckoholic
[livejournal.com profile] sietepecados


how should we do this?
i'm thinking an icon per character, and we choose our own caps?
we should break down who we want to include.
and we can always supply a selection of random caps if people unfamiliar with all the characters want to join.

i know i'll probably need some caps for damian and jason, i think the only thing i've read them in is random batman comics and death of a family.

THOUGHTS, ETC.
COMMENT.

characters:
bruce wayne
dick grayson
jason todd
tim drake
damian wayne
stephanie brown
barbara gordon
cassandra cain
kate kane
???

extras??
selina kyle
midnighter
harley
alfred

Yep. Bruce, Dick, Babs, Damian, Tim, Steph, Jason, and Cass is what I consider actual batfam. I have nothing against including Kate. What about Harper Row?

Edit because I totally forgot to put Jason in there, omg don't tell anyone. XD

fuck i forgot about cassandra. agreed.

harper is literally just getting introduced in the shit i'm reading.
i'd be down with it. so far i just know her as harper but i know she becomes a robin right?

Alfred? Do we want to include Alfred?

Well she kinda becomes... an aborted Robin? Telling you exactly would spoil you for Batman & Robin Eternal. I'm okay with leaving her out, though, she's a New 52 creation and while I like her, a lot of people don't consider her ~actual batfam.

i really don't want to icon alfred lmao. only if i have to.

i dont know that i'm going to read batman and robin eternal. i'm not even reading batman and robin as is. just the ones that tied into death of the family.

she seemed alright in the issues i've seen her in so far.

Yeah I feel you there. He totally IS batfam but... most I icons his face? So let's just... not. Unless someone else feels strongly about him.

I love B&RE because it gets all the batkids together, and also, you know, Midnighter meeting the fam and also Dick feelings aplenty. XD But yeah let me know if you want me to spoil you to explain how she ties into it.

v2 #1 - 40 is still syncing. but it should be done by the time you finish detective + v1 #000.

Batman Eternal has some nice batkids stuff too (NEAR-CANON BABS/JASON) but as a run it's.... eh. It has some canon elements that tie into other runs and storylines, but in all honesty, I mostly skip-read it.

And lol whoops, I have... not read a lot of that, tbh. A few of the events, yeah, but, mostly the batfam side of it and not much more. XD

Oh, and also, I keep a list of what I've actually read here though that doesn't include aforementioned skip-reads.

I thiiiiiiink there's an actual DC icons comm? Maybe? Did I dream that. Wait a second, I'll go check. Also, you know, icon talk and stuff? Does either of us know the mods of the comics icontest, so we can ask there for a pimp?
i was born difficult for myself: Marvel Jess2[personal profile] geckoholic on November 2nd, 2016 09:24 pm (UTC)
Nope no DC icons comm, but, [livejournal.com profile] comicbook_icons. Ohh and the newsletter, we can ask them to pick it up, [livejournal.com profile] comicstore_news.
