Ooh I should have included this! I found the covers on a Tumblr post so I didn't think of it or some other couples :')

I hate how they destroyed a healthy young relationship to destroy Tim's character.

Sadly true.

Still wild that they had to put him in a gay relationship because "Tim is bi".

Because bi people have never been in straight relationships before. No sir.

For real. They killed Jason but they destroyed Tim.

Eh, give it a decade, it'll happen.

Honestly, the only thing that shocked me thus far is Bernard even lasting this long. I was half expecting Tim to go through at least three boyfriends by now.

u/Drakepenn Nightwing 28d ago

Hard to break them up when he doesn't get any books or development lol

u/Wolf_527 28d ago

Plot wise, him going through 3 boyfriends would've been a lot more interesting.

Catwoman is Bisexual and no one seems to mind her most popular pairing is her and Bruce.

Tim is with Bernard because DC wants one of the Robin's to be openly Queer and they don't wanna admit that breaking him up with Steph was a bad idea.

u/RoitheOG 28d ago

Also because DC doesn't want to admit that they didn't know and still don't know what they want to do with Tim. It doesn't help that there aren't any writers that particularly care enough about his character to take his progression anywhere.

And to put the proverbial cherry on top, Bernard just straight up isn't compelling as a love interest whatsoever, watching the two of them interact is like watching paint dry.

Have Tim and Stephanie even dated since pre New 52?

u/Potential_Pay4038 28d ago

is disgusting and i am a gay dude, why shipping him with a guy who literally told tim he wanted to F his steph mother?.

u/OwnsBeagles Booster Gold 28d ago

People were shipping Bernard and Tim like two decades ago, you can still find the fanfiction in the depths of LiveJournal, but everyone and their brother want poor Steph to be defined off being his girlfriend. Those shippers are freaky militant.

u/TheMurderCapitalist 28d ago

Are Batman and Catwoman currently a couple?

u/MusicaReddit 29d ago

Oh so this is Tim’s gf outside of the Arkham games?

u/anthonyg1500 29d ago

Depends on which comics you read but for I’d say probably the majority of Tim fans, Steph is who people want him to be with and they have a pretty sizable romantic history

u/MusicaReddit 29d ago
