  1. Summary

    Stories about the various villain Tims, with art by Aldebaran and stories by njw. Parts one through six all overlap around chapter 5 (because Chessmaster likes to play with the multiverse) and can be read in any order. Part seven happens after the events of the other stories and will make the most sense if read after at least one of the first six stories.

    Enjoy!

    Summary

    Jason Todd thought he’d left the worst of his life buried in the dirt alongside the boy who wore Robin’s colors. Gotham was cruel, but at least it was the present. At least he had control.

    Until a new villain: a sadist who thrives on memory and pain. Drags him back. Not just into his past, but right after he died. Back into the skin of a too young Robin who should be dead at this point in time, back under Bruce Wayne’s watchful eye, back into every wound he thought he’d already survived.

    Now Jason has to navigate a Gotham that doesn’t know what’s coming, a family that doesn’t know he’s already broken, and the crushing weight of reliving the years that made him who he is.

    He’s been Red Hood, he’s been a corpse, he’s been a good soldier.
    But can he survive being Robin again?

    Summary

    In this world where almost everyone is born with a soulmark that writes the first sentence your soulmate says to you, many, many have expected Damian's soulmark to be something… fancy, gaudy, and pretentious, even.
    But then again, nothing is crueler than fate and love, after all.
    Damian was born with a soulmark on his left chest, right on his heart, written in the colour of gold (of course, it is gold).
    The soulmark reads.
    [Hey, that's my chips!]
    Yes.
    What an anti-climax. A disappointment, even.

    Summary

    He probably shouldn't have accepted that assignment. Very probably. But here he is, bleeding to death on the dark streets of Gotham. He gasps, the air burning his lungs as he leans weakly against an alley wall. “Shit...” he whispers, spitting blood onto the dirty pavement.

    The battle had left him limp, and the use of Shazam's lightning had taken too heavy a toll on him. Now, blood seeps down his throat, clogging his lungs, and each exhalation is harder than the last.

    “God... please...” he whispers, voice cracking, in a thread of desperation. He tries to scream Shazam, tries to transform, but his body is too weak to respond.

    The darkness spreads, the city and the pain fades. In that last instant, before he sinks into unconsciousness, he feels a pair of strong arms encircling him. He can barely fight back before he passes out completely.

    Or; Billy Batson falls into the hands of Batman. Will this preteen accept the care of the insultingly rich Bruce Wayne?

    (o, I mix the personality of the Billy Batson in the movie with his personality in some of the DC, like, young justice and other series an this come out).

    Summary

    Dying as the infamous villain of Ithaca, Antinous realized far too late that he was never after the throne. What he truly wanted was the prince, Telemachus. Given a second chance by the god of time, Chronos, he was sent back to the year he was only eight. Determined to change his fate and carve a better path for the boy he once failed, Antinous also set out to rewrite the destiny of the one man who changed everything: Odysseus. But redemption was never simple. As the gods watched and the threads of fate twisted and burned, he had to choose who he would become, this time with the world watching.

    This was the beginning of Antinous: The Redemption Arc.
