Clark kneeling and declaring himself Bruce’s personal lifeguard in his hoochie shorts, sun’s out guns out, I see you Clark, I see you…
Speaking of, augh I LOVE when Bruce uses sun imagery to talk about Clark 🥹 On the flipside, Bruce describing sparing another child the loss of their family with “that pain is mine alone” is so sad and fucked, and so very HIM. His tenuous acceptance of what he feels around Clark and self-consciously asking his parents’ permission is such a good callback to that “tell me it’s all right/I didn’t count on being happy” moment in MotP 😭😭😭
On a technical score YOOOO THAT FULL COLOR PANEL!!!! 👌 Absolutely adore the evocative way you use water in this series (and generally), and the cinematic feel of the whole surfing sequence. RISKY move on Clark’s part re the flight, lol I’m a bit torn between the “argh so close to finally finding out” impulse and far preferring that Bruce hasn’t yet (both for narrative payoff purposes, but also cuz he gets this unequivocally bright, happy moment with Clark. I assume before you throw us into something heartbreakingly devastating 🙃)
Justice Beach: a Superbat fancomic set in a Coast Guard AU!
While hunting for the Penguin as Batman, Bruce Wayne makes his way to Justice Beach, a sleepy little coastal California town. Little does he know the Coast Guard he's using as his cover is home to members of a mini-Justice League, consisting of Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Superman. As his pursuit of the Penguin becomes more dangerous, Bruce also finds himself in a growing relationship with another member of the Coast Guard - and Superman himself - Clark Kent.
All characters belong to DC (except for Ollie, Joel, and the goons - no one truly owns goons). Updates weekly on Wednesdays.
This comic is rated PG-13… expect blood, violence, attempted murders/successful murders… y’know, content you might find in superhero things.
As a head’s up, Episodes 2-4 were done first and formatted slightly differently. The Prologue and Episode 5 onwards are formatted for scrolling webcomics. :)
