Summary
In his 2009 book on Captain America comic books, war photography, and American propaganda, Everett claims: “There is nothing to suggest that either the graphic novels issued during the war or the photographs taken during Rogers’ stay with the Howling Commandos can serve as a basis for a queer reading of Rogers and Barnes’ relationship. But even more importantly, there is nothing to suggest that such a relationship ever existed in the first place, and as such, those queer readings are not only misguided, but also libelous” (197).
[from: Lynn E. Anderson, Captain America: Behind the Mask. Steve Rogers and the Contemporary Hero Narrative (New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2012), p. 242.]
In the aftermath of Steve's return to the world of the living and the battle of New York, the academia and the Internet react.

Summary
When Jason was Robin, he only saw Dick Grayson as the perfect asshole who put all the other sidekicks to shame, the golden boy who could do no wrong. And then he came back, and he was so broken that Dick, the Bat’s chosen heir, seemed mockingly whole in comparison. But now he’s an adult, with his own team and operations and purpose, and Dick isn’t the untouchable idol, too high for him to reach and too good for him to tarnish. Dick is a teenager getting drunk alone in a bar—which makes Jason the stable one.
Which is an unsettling a realization as Jason’s ever had.
---
When the Ric Grayson situation reaches critical mass, Tim sends Jason back in time to piece Dick's memories back together.

Summary
Hannibal planned to keep Will in the dark about his encephalitis so he could watch that brilliant mind burn itself up and become something new. In a world without daemons, he might have got away with it.
An AU incorporating elements of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials series, beginning partway through the first season of Hannibal. Due to the existence of daemons, the course of the Chesapeake Ripper case is drastically altered — and so too is the relationship between Hannibal and Will.
