if i had a nickel every time super fells in love with a mermaid, i'd have three nickels. which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened three times
EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP
Maps is on another Batgirls cover!
And let’s not forget all those years of really close friendship between him and Timmy, DC can say whatever they want but I know the truth, those two adorkable idiots totally love each other in the gayest of ways
Kon is at least a little bit queer, I firmly chose to believe that he is not fully straight and is at the very least rocking a preference that I have dubbed “Timsexual” or “Timmysexual” -I’ve been playing with “Timmycurious”, “Timromantic”, or “BiTimothy”
“I’m a half kryptonian clone/love child of Superman and Lex Luthor-the fact that my sexual preference is pretty much Women, Tim Drake and that brief period of time a few years back when I was a little obsessed with Nightwing’s ass (not necessarily in that order) really isn’t that big a deal. Love is love, the way I feel about Tim is bigger than the confines of gender and sexuality. I know that Tim Drake, the caffeine addicted, sleep deprived, annoyingly intelligent, workaholic, overachiever Timothy Drake, is the love of my life, it’s just not our time yet, it one day it will be.” -My headcannon of how Kon would respond to questions about being “Timsexual”
[DC] Happy Birthday Duckboy!! 🐥💜
Of the two of them, their personal and family histories would lead you to expect Kon to be the one to dabble in mad science and for Tim to be the one to adopt someone else's identity as a response to loss, and yet
Jon literally has a Kon poster 😭😭😭. Shut up that’s so cute. For those wondering, it’s the cover of Superboy and the Ravers #15!
two dc bros trinities!
Food For Thought About New 52 And Tim Drake...
Before New 52, Tim Drake (The third Robin and eventually Red Robin) and Kon El (Superboy) were extremely close. When Bruce had died, only Tim denied this. Nobody believed Tim. Except for Kon.
When Tim was depressed and wearing the Red Robin costume, Kon saw this as a sign to be worried like a true friend.
And because he dubbed Tim as not a “cowl kinda guy”, Tim always took it off around him. ALWAYS.
Overall, people loved this friendship. Some even shipped it and called it love. Both stances said that they were close and that it was nice to have a supportive friendship like this in DC comics.
But then everything changed when New 52 attacked. Dubbing Tim Drake as just Red Robin whose past is never really said except that he was Robin. This erased all history between him and Kon.
Playful banter but nothing like before.
This part of New 52 is EXTREMELY DELIBERATE.
By doing this, DC doesn’t have to hear anything more about Tim and Kon being possibly gay. Now they just have to sift through complaints about the loss of one of the best friendships in comic book history.
Dear New 52:
You suck.
Sincerely, The Third Robin.
TLDR Version; It’s extremely sad what has happened to Tim in New 52 and the loss of Kon as a close friend is just one of many, many grievances.
Yeah, you can trust them! They’re the Teen Titans! - No, we’re not. Oh, right! They’re the Young Justice League of America! - No… we’re young, but just us.

DC Comics alphabet: Y is for; Young Justice
“Oh right they’re the Young Justice League!” “No we’re Young but it’s Just Us” “Oh Okay! Young Justice!” “No Young, Just Us.” “That’s what I said Young Justice.” “Fine whatever.”
