Jor-El: Ok, the planet is going to explode.

Zor-El: Uh huh.

Jor-El: So I'm going to send my son to another planet to save him.

Zor-El: With you so far.

Jor-El: And the yellow sun will give him great power to conquer the world so he can take a harem of wives to repopulate the Kryptonian species.

Imagine Bruce gets an emergency call from the Justice League and they need him really bad. Bruce needs a babysitter. But a ratio of 1:5 seems a bit low. Considering that one is an acrobatic, another has issues with authority, one can't talk or understand speech and won't eat or play unless you tell her to, one is a baby, and the other is Tim. Even with Alfred's help it would be a handful.

So he enlists none other than Steph and Duke to watch over them while he's away. They both have babysitting experience but if they need any thing, he stresses that they should call him. But Steph and Duke are like, "It's just kids, and we're vigilantes, we can handle this."

They can barely handle it.

Eventually, they play a game of bulldog (the game where someone is a bulldog and the others have to run to the other side of an area and not get tagged. If they are, they have to join the bulldogs). The 4 kids are the bulldogs while Steph and Duke are the runners. The kids are thinking this is easy, but Steph and Duke do pull some tricks and give them a struggle.

Eventually, the kids are tuckered out and they go inside for a movie and most of the kids fall asleep.

Steph and Duke are also tired, but manage to stay awake, especially because Duke has a baby Damian sleeping on his chest. Until...

Damian blows out his diaper.

"Just tell them we're Animorphs." "Tell them we're what?" "Idiot teenagers with a death wish."

THE ANIMORPHS30 ZINE IS HERE!!!

(And thanks to @gros-chat-fait for this beautiful cover art!!)

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series, creators of the fanbase have come together to bring you a zine of nearly 200+ pages (at which point I'm not even sure we can call it a zine anymore! The correct term at this point would be anthology!), filled with art and writing.

You can download it as a PDF here, or if you just want to view it without downloading, it's available on Canva here.

Currently I'm still working on options for getting a printed release, but self-printing is still an option! Stay tuned—there should be a self-print mirror available shortly (I'll just need to change some links to QR codes, among other things).

Tim dismantled Dick's fridge at 4am because it's leaking and Dick stumbles out of his bedroom to find all his food on the counter top and Tim face timing Bernard while his ice cream melts.

Tim has these really weird growth spurts and he can literally shoot up about two or three inches overnight and Dick is just watching his little brother tower over him.

Tim traumadrumps on him without meaning to. Sometimes he's just in the middle of lunch and he'll mention in passing that he was never held as a kid or something.

Tim will sometimes appear in Dick's apartment and make food. Dick once walked in from patrol in Bludhaven to find Tim making a giant pastrami sandwich, despite Dick having nothing in his fridge.

Tim sometimes hacks Dick's streaming services and changes the preferred language to get him to learn a new language. Now he's stuck watching Love Island in Arabic.

Tim will on occasion just start laughing to himself and Dick suspects it's either Joker Jr trauma or he's been Jokerized but Tim just says no, he's thinking of an obscure meme.

Tim sends Dick the most out of pocket memes and Tiktoks. Not brainrot but something more eerie and chilling.
