Is this only the second story where a Dick without Bruce grows up to work for Tony Zucco? I honestly don't believe that a Dick without Bruce would have been doomed to a life of crime. (This Tim is more like Jason so for him it makes a bit more sense at least.)
I can see where it might have happened. It took someone like Bruce to channel the anger and grief that Dick had into something productive. The circus folk, though, couldn't offer him that direction and drive and without that he'd just drift along, closed off from everyone.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
