Cass, Coming Back From Her Fight To The “death” With Shiva: “I Lived Bitch, And So Did Shiva”

Cassandra Cain I Am The Dog Animatic

happy birthday to my beloved blorbo... this is late to cass cain week because as you can see it is a behemoth and i spent 2 weeks on it. first time making smth like this but phew the things i would do for cass. Song is I Am the Dog by Sir Chloe

if you wanna read me yapping about every choice i made for these frames it is under the cut!!

I'm not going to be pulling each frame for this because that would be so much so Ill go by lyric :]

head underwater / hand in a fist

I start with cass post shiva fight after she wins and then immediately go all the way back in time to the act of violence that put cass on her suicide mission in the first place

hard to describe something ill never miss

baby cass is holding that mans throat in her hands, the most prominent mark on her chest is his blood / adult cass is holding her mask in her hand, and the most prominent mark on her chest is the bat symbol

i am the dog under your couch

this wolf is a reference to the mark of cain symbol which im...pretty sure is a wolf? its really shittily drawn and not a lot of references but whatever. she is being partially covered by the mark of her father.

gnashing teeth and open mouth

remember that time where cass conquered a pack of dogs (or wolves?) and then ate a cow raw. this is that

shouldn't have clawed my own way out

this is pretty self explanatory

loving you's my only house

OK! that one scene where we see cass's birth and it says the first sound she heard was her mother and the second was a gun shot? that made me terminally insane. this is that.

then we go through a fast montage of cass's important parental people in her life in order david/babs/bruce/shiva. we end with the scene we opened with in the beginning, zoomed out, and cass seems happier. yay!

we've had RED NIGHTWING but have we considered: BLUE RED HOOD

I understand the appeal of wanting every adult hero to instinctively adopt teenage Peter Parker, but can it really beat the hilarity of acknowledging that at 15 Peter was 5'10", unusually buff, went by a moniker with Man in it, wore a creepy full face mask, and had a tightly guarded secret identity and probably a Queens accent thick enough to have come out of a jello mold, and adult heroes reasonably responded to him by going, “Wow, this grown man is an immature asshole for no reason.”

This is the perfect addition

Don’t get me wrong, I love content where the Justice League don’t know Billy’s identity and all the shenanigans that come with that!

But something about the JL just causally knowing they have a 14 year old on their team fighting universal threats and being okay with that is so funny to me

Yes, I have over 30 drafts that I release day by day like hostages being released by a criminal with unintelligible demands.

Yes, the drafts are growing faster than I am willing post them.

Yes, this was in my drafts for a week.

I declare this press conference over.

Secret society of Clown Enjoyers in Gotham that have to keep their love for clowns and the aesthetic a secret because Joker ruined it for them.

Their society’s goal? Either kill the Joker or, somehow, get him to change his aesthetic as the “Clown Prince Of Crime” so that they can wear their costumes without being associated with Joker.

They are the Joker’s #1 hater

Every time someone says “Steph was the worst Robin” or “Batman was right for not trusting Steph” an angel loses it’s wings and dies a brutal death

Wait, there are boy Robins? Hm, sounds like diversity picks to me.
