The new DC Titans show is doing its best to be the stand alone oh so edgy version of the
loveable Teen Titans characters and for today's video well be highlighting a few of them from
the comic book days and a few from the animated show.
Our main focus will be to ship a variety of superheroes for the new show based on their
history together throughout the wonderful world of DC.
Make sure you guys all stay to the end of this video because I will have bonus content
for you guys so stay tuned.
Also leave us a comment below with who your favorite Teen Titan member is and while you
ponder that lets jump into today's list of the Top 10 Romances In Titans That We Want
To See
#10 Supergirl and Powerboy We know this wasnt the most functional of
relationships when it comes to the Teen Titans, but we still would love to see this story
play out.
Shortly after Supergirls resurrection in 2004 she had been locked under the control of Darkseid
and held as a prisoner on Apokolips.
This is where Darkseids minion Powerboy first fell in love.
When Supergirl finally returned to Earth Powerboy stalked her and actually ended up joining
the Titans just to be closer.
The two did begin a pretty successful relationship until Powerboys dark side began to poke its
ugly head into the middle of it.
#9 Nightwing and Mirage If youve been watching Titans on Netflix youll
know that Nightwing aka Dick Grayson has already began to build a close relationship with Starfire.
For the most part everyone has been pretty supportive of this.
The same goes when it comes to the comic book history, but a noteworthy exception would
be Mirage.
Mirage comes to Earth from a desolate alternative future and during her time travel adventure
to stop this future from happening she falls in love with Grayson.
Mirage is more than manipulative when it comes to the comic book world, but if you look at
it from a different perspective perhaps her intentions are good.
In the comic books she knows that Nightwing would never just leave Starfire to be with
her, so instead she disguises herself as Starfire.
In doing so Nightwing cant even tell the difference, which really says more about Dick Grayson
than anything else.
#8 Aqualad and Tula Tula also known as Aquagirl makes this romance
a must see for us.
It just makes sense that the two water heroes finally make it happen on Titans especially
with the introduction of Aqualad to the show.
In terms of comic book history that these two share Tula was one of the many female
characters that became heroes to impress a male hero.
For Tula though not only did she impress her crush Aqualad, but she remained as a true
hero.
The two even fought together for many years both on land and by sea.
So that combined with their shared origins would be a perfect pairing
#7 Gnarrk and Lilith Clay With all the dysfunctional, obvious and wanted
romances we want to see we would be remiss not to toss an odd couple into the mix.
Gnarrk and Lilith Clay fit that bill to a tee.
First and foremost you have Gnarrk this caveman that was able to survive being frozen in ice
all thanks to a magic meteor jammed into his chesticle.
Then you have Lilith the telepath and although this pairing has been retconned over the years
during the post-crisis on infinite Earths this relationship proved its worth.
During that time Gnarrk could sense that these scientists were going to disrupt his resting
place so usually what mental energy he had he was able to ask Lilith for help.
After the Titans were able to save him their relationship never really had time to get
off the ground.
Gnarrk was slowly dying and for the most part he would have to communicate telepathically
with Lilith.
For the show Titans though they can take their time to tell this story which would be great
to see.
#6 Herald and Bumblebee This is another sweet romance that we believe
would be perfect for Titans to pick up.
Mal Duncan aka Herald never felt like one of the Titans.
He didn't have a cool costume and he didn't even have special powers.
Although when he started dating Karen Beecher she didn't want him to feel left out.
So she actually built him the Gabriel Horn allowing Herald to do things far beyond his
human capacity.
With this new gift he was able to create wormholes and even cross dimensions.
Talk about girlfriend of the year.
After creating the bumblebee costume for herself because shes a strong independent woman.
The two joined forces and remained with the Titans for quite some time.
Even after retiring from the team the two got married and enjoyed a normal life together.
#5 Terra and Beast Boy Leaning on the more interesting side would
be getting to see the romance that took place between the changeling Beast Boy and his Earth
controlling teammate Terra.
Not all of these pairings will end well, but regardless this is a romance we want to see.
You see Beast Boy was madly in love with his new teammate, but it turned out that Terra
didn't feel the same way.
In fact she didn't have any mutual feelings for any of the Titans.
Turns out her entire plan was to just get close enough to the Titans so that she could
destroy them.
Unfortunately this included duping the gullible Beast Boy into quickly falling for her.
Needless to say when all was said and done, Beast Boy was pretty beat up over it.
Don't worry though it will be on to the next for Beast Boy later in this list.
#4 Raven and Kid Flash Were not too sure how they could work this
into the mix of the storyline that they've built already for the show Titans, but it
would definitely be a cool thing to see.
In the Teen Titans show Raven had arrived on Earth and the Titans were actually no longer
together.
Hoping to reform the team in time to stop her father from invading she had to lie.
In comes Kid Flash who had fallen in love with Raven and really stuck his neck out there
to help her get the team back together.
However Kid Flash soon realized that she was only interested in him so that he would help
her.
Not a great way to start any relationship, but a type of romance that would make for
great television.
#3 Donna Troy and Green Lantern For starters both Donna and Kyle Rayner were
in some pretty famous comic book relationships, but when those didn't pan out they found each
other.
Both had been dealing with the pretty traumatic end to their respective relationships which
included the murder of Alex DeWitt leading to the popular phrase women in refrigerators.
Although their romance was a short-lived one the couple did end up becoming good friends
later on.
Plus how great would it be to see Titans play out the part of the relationship where evil
Mary Marvel uses Kyle as a blunt weapon to beat up Donna.
You know what now that I say that out loud, probably not a good idea, that scene would
probably get them cancelled.
Okay we want to see the relationship, just leave that part from Countdown out.
#2 Raven and Beast Boy Ever heard the saying opposites attract?
Well there is no more suiting couple to embody this than the gloomy Raven and cheerful Beast
Boy.
Although the two never really had that much time together in the comic books thanks to
the Teen Titans cartoon the fandom has become huge.
Back in 2003 they really started to gain traction as a couple amongst fans who truly loved the
genuine mix of interactions between the two characters.
With their characters already being established in the Netflix show Titans this pairing would
still work and make for a great on screen romance.
As long as Raven doesn't break Beast Boys heart like Terra did of course.
#1 Wondergirl and Superboy After Donna Troy outgrew the name Cassie Sandsmark
took on the role of Wonder Girl.
As such she became a key player and critical member for the Titans.
Much like Donna Troy though she too became hopelessly in love with a teammate.
That teammate was the ever so arrogant Superman clone known as Superboy.
After some time had passed Superboy grew to also have feelings for Wondergirl, but like
many of the couples were shipping it all came to an end.
After just one night of romance between the two Superboy gave up his life to save the
world.
This is a much needed romance for the show in our humble opinion because it has it all.
Desperate passion meets tragic ending all to save the world and the one he loves.
Say it with me, aweeeeee
