You may have to get used to it. You’re dating Mr. “I had breakfast at noon” Grayson.
the phrase “Dick Grayson is a clown” now has some merit to it.
I know these panels belong to adjacent stories that just happen to share an issue, but they are way more funny/sad if read as consecutive events.

I made this joke earlier, but it probably applies even more here.
Beast Boy: Oh, is it annoying you?
Raven: Yes.
Beast Boy: Then yes I do.

The Flashes are the most ridiculously op superheroes in the entire ‘verse. They can do everything Kid Flash did in that episode and more, to the extent that for most of their appearances, writers usually try to find some reason to curb their powers a little- just so they don’t break the story by fixing everything before the first paragraph is done. This is one of the few times we actually get to see a Flash let loose in all his ott glory. Isn’t it fun?

So I was walking into this episode already thinking speedsters are OP, but then y’all are like “Oh you poor baby, you don’t even know the half of it”. The one we saw in this episode was beatable, but only by an expert with powers oddly suited to defeat him. The kinds of shit that big boy Flash has gotten away with over the years is just astounding.
Has anyone told you about the wonderful mess that is Wonder Girl? The story of how she happened is amazing. Okay back in the Golden Age of.comics when they could just make up whatever they wanted and continuity was just a word that applied on occasion there was Wonder Girl, who was a young Wonder Woman who would appear in flashback stories and the like. She was popular enough to start teaming up with her older self via time shenanigans on the regular, and even her younger self Wonder Baby. This even featured on a few covers.
Fast forward to when they were first making the Titans and needed members. One of the writers remembered those covers and, having never read them, naturally assumed Wonder Girl was Wonder Woman’s sidekick and just included her. Several months later fans started writing in asking what was going on and the writers and editors learned what their mistake was. So to cover it up they explained that “this is a different Wonder Girl. Her name is Donna Troy and uh, she washed up on the island’s shore and was adopted by the amazons who trained her and gave her their magical powers”. So now we had a new character with a good, clean, easy to remember origin.
This didn’t last because writer after writer after writer over the years kept changing it, revealing “shocking truths”, “plot twists”, “that was a lie as part of an evil plot, but you see the truth is” and various other retcons that kept just piling up. It got to the point where a more recent writer, in mockery of this insanity, made it In Universe Canon that even she doesn’t know what her origin is anymore and actually stopped caring. She even wrote a best selling autobiography about it.

So here’s what I took from all that:

Sneaking out of the house becomes a lot more complicated when you have to flee to a different continent.
Be careful Flash, or you’ll invoke the wrath of Jinx again, or even worse, the Flinx shippers. ;)

We should try defeating our enemies with the power of fangirl shrieks. It works on Jinx.
