[Slimybug]

Aside from BTAS where they eventually grew apart what other media has featured Dick & Batgirl in a relationship.

They are friends with benefit in Young Justice. They also had a history in Injustice. TTG had a future of them married. Dick also needs to get a leash made of adamantium. He is such a dog.

Cut up, out of context panels. He literally muzzles her in the full scene.

I know! People love to throw these panels in here. But yet I don't see the panels when Dick Grayson went to ask Catwoman for help. Or the time when Dick Grayson was defending Catwoman to Batman. Both times have happened over the decades more than once.

Different writers have done different things to different characters. Sometimes it's cool and sometimes it's not.

Unfortunately the corporate dc storytelling is not consistent with shipping dick and Barbara . Wasn't babs Tim drake's endgame in the arkham games and Bruce's love interest in 2 movie's and in a love triangle with dick and bruce in the batman animated series. It's only consistent with the
bat office.(the comic world).
So far, since dick and kory as been introduced in media, DC as been quite consistent with the ship. That's why it's so popular again.

It sounds like Warner Brothers is doing one thing and DC Comics is doing another? I mean, when did Dick and Kori get popular again since Rebirth?

Dick should just be asexual and be saved from having to decide between Barbara and Kori.

More Dick for us. Hell yeah!

You know, I actually saw on Twitter, some people who was shipping DickBats, as in Dick Grayson and Batman being together.

Since the 2003 animated series and a surge with the resent animated movies and injustice 2.

For you maybe I'm a guy.

That's not how asexuality works.

People - - especially non-comic readers - - were shipping them back in the '50s and '60s.

That is why the original Kathy Kane Batwoman was invented (and eventually Robin got his own 'suitable' female interest: Betty Kane, the Bat-girl) - to dissuade folks who thought this comic was a bad influence on young boys. I think you know this btw.

*looks at the poll* And the seesaw continues.

[Oberon]

I'm not voting; don't have a choice I would vote for.

. . . Old School take 2, says Babs, in the Silvery age turning to Bronze and beyond, was played as at least 2 or 3 years older than Dick, which didn't mean much perhaps, and of course now, it is actually reversed, so... a little weird.

Haven't read the whole thread, so don't know if/how many times it's been said, but the Silver/Bronze Age Barbara was waaaaaay more than just two or three years older than Dick! When she was first introduced in the '60s (Detective Comics #359, cover-dated January 1967), she was already a college graduate and a professional librarian, while Dick was still in high school!
(Dick didn't start college until the December 1969 cover-dated issues of Batman and Detective Comics.)
In the Batman Family stories, it was played up (in issue #1) that Dick had previously had a "crush" on the older Barbara, but it wasn't as if Barbara had similar feelings.

As for the poll, the two choices just seem so last-century. Hasn't there been anybody else in the past twenty years or so worth considering?
