The Titans aren't Superman or Batman.  That is all.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Deathstroke is not B list!  :mad:
Sure he is.  He might be awesome, but he hasn't got the marketability of the Joker or Lex Luthor, nor has he got the sheer presence of Darkseid.    He's a guy whose job it is to be awesome and unbeatable against second-stringers like Green Arrow, the Teen Titans or the Birds of Prey.
Blasphemy!  :mad:

As much as I love the TT they are a team of sidekicks, misfits and way OP chicks who need calming down on a regular basis. They are not A List.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I don't need a test.  I know that I am Adam Warlock.
You were crafted as a tool of a twisted and false ideology?  Is Marxism the Universal Church of Truth?

I was birthed by scientists, I ran away, and when I tried to get laid, Thor beat me up.

Raven may be OP but she doesn't need calming down.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Plus donna troy and starfire lose their shit on a regular basis. Raven needs to constantly stay calm and collected or else she will become the vessel of trigon the demon and open a portal to an alternate dimension leading to the destruction of this dimension by demons. I say she fits in the category of needing to calm down. She has it over the other pms'ing superheroines that she KNOWS she needs to stay calm, that is why she is constantly meditating.

Indeed Starfire's uncontrolled rage is one of the most memorable tropes of the series.  They have an animated version of the Teen Titans, but from what I've seen of it they seem to have excised that from her character.

In both Teen Titans and Teen Titans GO, her rage filled abolitionism isn't present at all. Well, except the first Teen Titans episode where she gets freed from slavery... until she learns the meaning of the word "nice". Silly yes.

To be honest Donna Troy isn't exactly a paragon of stability either.

Apparently, the publishers of Archie comics are planning to kill off Archie. How will he die, I wonder? :hmm:

I got Superman:

QuoteDC Comics
You were the type of cool kid in high school who invited everyone to sit at their lunch table or come to their party, because the idea of shunning people just because they were different than you made absolutely no sense. You're a natural leader, and you stick to your guns, with the hopes that if you do the right thing, other people will follow.

I don't think any internet test has ever tagged me so incorrectly.  I certainly wasn't one of the cool kids in high school, and while I do try to do the right thing, I have very few illusions about anyone following my lead.
