I think I have a new favourite Robin... Honestly!

Let's start the weekend with a dose of complete and utter cuteness. I mean it, this makes "Batman and Sons" look like the national finals of "Pro-Celebrity: Ugly People Making Out... Noisily".



Now, normally, my affection for Mr Grayson is pretty much untrammelled, however this Halloween a new contender has come on the scene and he will lay waste to all criminals with unparalleled cuteness.

Meet the new dynamic duo

Seriously, how could you ever want to commit a crime with that level of adorableness being levelled against you?

It's actually the creator of the awesome webcomic Butterfly (about the adventures of neophyte superhero Butterfly, who has become the sidekick to a sidekick) Dean Trippe and his son (known online as Field, no that's not his real name (Dean wouldn't be that cruel), but wisely, Dean is leaving his name off the net).

Oh, and I can thoroughly recommend clicking on the link titled "Butterfly Collection Vol. 1" and downloading the 5.7Mb PDF file that comes with it, which starts off the Butterfly saga and is wonderful stuff)

For legality, a sample of the Butterfly webcomic, as Birdy (sidekick to KnightBat) and Butterfly discuss their role in the cosmic scheme of things.


There's a terrific piece about the stages that went into putting this particular strip together here

Sadly, there hasn't been a new Butterfly strip in a long time, but Dean still has his DA account here, which usually has some fun stuff too, like this

Most awesome thing to wake up to!
Now..if I could get a breakfast in bed...

That brightened my day I'm going to be walking around with a sappy grin so infectious is the cute.

So cute, I fell out of my chair.

I dunno, Lian didn't fare so well.

...I kid, I kid. Seriously, though, that kid is beyond cute.

An actual high-pitched noise happened from my mouth.

BABY ROBIN IS CUTEST ROBIN.

I'm fairly sure that that video is about the most adorable thing I have ever seen. I actually made squeeky "OMG cute cute cute, I am melting from the cute" noises.

Trippe and his son are cute. This little Robocop is a solid contender for cutest, though!

(I love when the Detroit cops meet him!)

A lot of the pics seem eerily empty, it's the kid and the scenery, but no people.

But yeah, he's adorable, and the bit with the cops is gold.

Detroit is kind of an economic ghost town, though not the hellhole of the actual Robocop films.

I don't know if you'd noticed, but there's a follow up to that post where it turns out that the person who said they were a friend of Peter Weller actually DID send the pic to him, and replied with an autographed photo for the kid. Now that's a class act there!

The dad makes a good Batman XD

AW ROBIN BABY. He/she is really feeling it :D

He, "Field" is very definitely a Boy Wonder.

[inexpediency]

CUTEST. THING.

[psychopathicus_rex]

Awwwwwwwwwwww. That kid is destined for a life of fandom.
