Author's Note

Inspired by Oracle Movie Trailer by centreoftheselights on AO3.

Heavily inspired by centreoftheselights's work! It's not an exact match, because I didn't have the right footage to edit the Joker out of Babs's origin, or to include Jason as much as the original did, but this wouldn't exist if not for that screenplay 💚 This was such a fun project, and also, I am so glad it's over. I need to think about something else.

Content Warning: glitch effects and eyestrain from 1:51-1:59. Possible eyestrain from 0:22-0:24. Rapid cutting throughout.

Footage Credits

• Titans (2018-2023), season 3
• Nightwing: The Series [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o297A1wmys0&list=PLKYGZbsY88fwAGBTgcBCJ0IUqHJqNO_bG&index=1&t=0s]
  A fan-made series from several years ago that I still have a huge soft spot for. The brief references to The Killing Joke and A Death in the Family are sourced from here, and honestly I owe these guys my life for giving me clean visual adaptations of those works so I didn't have to awkwardly cut around them. And also so I didn't have to source footage of any of the lame-ass Jokers we've had in the last ten years. (Heath Ledger excepted, his Joker was not lame, but I didn't really want to pull footage of him either.)
• Batgirl 2022 Trailer (LEAKED) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH8OTbb5wPM&t=0s]
  Another unofficial source. This is technically a parody trailer, but the production values are good and it gave me a ton of great footage. All of the Batgirl clips are sourced from here.
