The Teen Titans are one of DC’s most beloved teams. Initially made up by the sidekicks of established heroes, the Titans slowly became their own thing and now hold a privileged place in the DC universe. The Titans have some very compelling and complex storylines, including some pretty riveting relationships.
From doomed love affairs to intricate family dynamics and ride-or-die friendships, the Titans have every kind of relationship in the business. Not all of them have happy endings, and a few don’t even have a proper one, but they all keep the Titans’ storylines fresh and absorbing.
10 Arsenal & Cheshire
Hero-villain love stories are always entertaining. Fans love to see two people who shouldn’t get together try it anyways, often with tragic results. Cheshire and Roy Harper share a passionate and loving romance that results in their daughter, Lian.
In most versions, the two don’t end up together, and Roy raises Lian by himself. Still, there are always lingering feelings between the two of them, and Cheshire’s love for Lian brings the best part of her. These two seem forever bound to separate eventually, but no one can deny their connection is real.
9 Beast Boy & Terra
Beast Boy and Terra are another example of a hero-villain couple. However, Terra isn’t always a villain. Her debut during the now iconic Judas Contract storyline cemented her place as one of the best and most powerful Teen Titans’ villains. Still, her character is more an anti-hero than a straight-up antagonist.
In most versions of their story, Beast Boy and Terra share a latent attraction that almost always ends in heartbreak. Her wildly inappropriate attraction for Deathstroke further complicates things. In most cases, Beast Boy is open about his feelings for her, but her issues and duplicity always get in the way, adding more layers to their already complex dynamic.
8 Nightwing & Kid Flash
Comic book fans know Dick Grayson and Wally West are best friends. The two share a bond that goes way back, being childhood pals who eventually became the Teen Titans’ founding members. Dick and Wally even went on yearly getaways together, reinforcing the bond between them.
Wally’s occasional deaths add an element of tragedy into their otherwise wholesome relationship. Still, fans keep fond memories of these two together, and in the pantheon of DC friendships, few come close to being as sweet or honest as Dick and Wally’s.
7 Beast Boy & Raven
Beast Boy and Raven take the will-they-or-won’t-they dynamic to the next level. Although the 1980s comics never hinted at a romance between them, the 2003 cartoon provided ample material to launch a thousand fanfics around the world.
The relationship became official starting with DC Rebirth, but things are everything but easy. The two have evident love for each other but face multiple challenges along the way. It remains unclear if these two will ever find a happy ending or if they’ll even end up together, but their story remains compelling every time a writer revisits it.
6 Wonder Girl & Superboy
DC’s notoriously convoluted continuity allows for characters to get involved on multiple occasions. Before the New 52, Wonder Girl and Superboy shared a brief but meaningful romance. Their attraction was mutual and obvious, but Superboy’s sacrifice ended the relationship on a tragic note.
Wonder Girl has gone on to share another complicated romance with another Teen Titans teammate, Tim Drake. However, her love story with Superboy will always have a special place in fans’ hearts, mainly because of their romance’s “what if” nature.
5 Raven & Starfire
As two of the central members of the Teen Titans, Raven and Starfire share a connection unlike any other pair in the team. The two couldn’t be more different from each other; Raven is notoriously closed and controlled, afraid of ever letting go and showing her emotions. On the other hand, Starfire is passion embodied, a highly emotional and intense warrior who never keeps anything inside.
Their polar personalities make their interactions all the more entertaining. The recent graphic novel I Am Not Starfire and its protagonist, Mandy, pay tribute to Starfire and Raven’s ultimate odd couple relationship brilliantly and endearingly.
4 Nightwing & Starfire
Since the 1980s, Dick Grayson and Starfire have been the landmark romance in Teen Titans comics. They share a passionate and intense attraction that makes them one of the most affectionate couples in comic books. Most of the time, they can’t keep their hands off each other.
Dick is at the center of one of the most famous love triangles in comic books, sharing his affections with Starfire and Barbara Gordon. Most fans have a favorite between Kori and Babs, and it doesn’t seem like Dick will ever make up his mind between the two. Still, his romance with Kori remains one of the most emblematic in DC, and they will always be the Teen Titans’ ultimate power couple.
3 Starfire & Blackfire
Sibling rivalry is always a prime source for entertainment, and when it comes to this particular dynamic, no relationship beats Starfire and Blackfire. These two Tamaranean Princesses share a love-hate relationship unlike any other in DC Comics. Depending on the writer, Blackfire is either a despotic tyrant who betrayed her own homeworld or a misunderstood young woman forced to fend off for herself.
Still, the fact remains that Blackfire hates her sister and often goes out of her way to kill her. Their antagonism towards each other is crucial to their storyline, as is the tragedy that they will never coexist peacefully despite sharing the same blood.
2 Raven & Trigon
There’s nothing worse than having a bad relationship with a parent. However, Trigon redefines the concept of “lousy parenting,” taking it to the extreme. A demonic entity and one of the most powerful monsters in the DC Universe, Trigon also serves as Raven’s archenemy, constantly plotting to take over her.
Trigon’s constant efforts to corrupt Raven’s soul cement her as one of the most tortured characters in American comic books. Still, their dynamic remains as intriguing as ever. Trigon cares nothing for Raven yet still needs her in one way or another. For her part, Raven both fears and loathes her father but still needs all her strength to resist his influence.
1 The 80s Team
The Teen Titans’ original line-up included several beloved heroes, like Robin, Kid Flash, and Speedy. However, it wasn’t until the 1980s that the team really came to its own, thanks to new characters like Starfire, Raven, and Beast Boy. During this time, the series became a hit for DC Comics, and this line-up remains the most popular.
Indeed, the 80s line-up became a real team, supporting and elevating each other as only best friends do. Together, they lived through some of the team’s most crucial storylines, including the Judas Contract and the Terror of Trigon. These events created a bond for life that nothing could ever destroy, cementing the Titans as one of the best groups in DC Comics.
