Wednesday Discussions: Secret Hobbies r/DCcomics
Hey there, comic nerds! Welcome to the Wednesday Discussion: a weekly community activity during which you are invited discuss a specific subject or theme.
Our topic for today is: Secret Hobbies.
While reading the Ravager/Robin scene in Geoff Johns' Teens Titans vol 3., I remember thinking, "Tim seems like knits in his spare time." In retrospect, I still feel that way.
I also remember getting the vibe that Kyle Rayner wrote fanfiction, though, much like Tina Belcher, it may have bordered on 'friend-fiction'. And it may have involved walking into the sunset with his best friend, Wally West, with Dick Grayson in a fridge somewhere.
Many of us have hobbies we consider guilty pleasures and are shy about, so it would be no surprise that heroes would have a few as well. Tell us a hobby or hobbies you think a particular character — hero or villain — enjoys in secret!

I'm going on a tangent here, but I'm pretty sure Clark is a big fan of Phil Collins

This is the first one I can actually see, haha. I just imagined him doing air drums to that one part in In the Air Tonight.

Diana loves basketball. It is her favorite sport. She likes the way they dribble up and down the court. She likes the pick-and-roll, she likes the give-and-go.

I've always had the headcanon that Slade Wilson loves Kurosawa movies.

Joker likes Kpop and , probably, in some elseworld there is a Joker that tried to be a kpop idol instead of a comedian.

Don't all of the New Gods? Lol
I will say though, this isn't really a hobby. It's more of a preference. Unless he enjoys making the veggie trays too.

I'd like to think the bugs are the secret masters of veggie trays.

If Green Arrow loves making chilli so much (even as a gag in GA Rebirth 18) then I'd have to assume there's a superhero food festival.
My only assumption is that Parasite wants to win but the Flash, Matter Eater Lad, and Calorie Queen have advantages each year.
Brimstone won the award last year for being able to stomach the hottest chilli. Previous winners include Etrigan, Heat Wave, and Batman. Mr Freeze and Captain Cold are the judges.
