Rocket kissed Aqualad on the cheek, it wasn't a full on kiss. the rest of the relationships have either been hinted at (Zee and Robin), heavily implied (Artemis and Wally) or been apart of the show for a while (Superboy and Ms. Martian) so those kisses made sense..

As far as Wonder Girl, i know the producers wanted her in the show from the beginning but couldn't do to rights issues (just like Wonder Woman was almost NOT in the Justice League Cartoon due to rights issues). So i wouldn't be surprised if she's a full time member after she's introduced.

And couldn't they have done a better job of introducing her? It seems like she just pops up and everyone acts lke she's been there all along. She's friggin' Larry from Pinky and the Brain. :lol:


Her name is Raquel. Icon agreed to take her on as his sidekick on the condition that she would wear this inertia absorbing belt, based on technology from his spaceship. It made her almost entirely immune to harm by wrapping her in a force field that absorbed kinetic energy. It also allowed her to build up and release the energy absorbed by the belt. By releasing this energy she could produce punches with superhuman force, energy blasts, and approximate flight.

Hence the nickname "Rocket."

In the Titans short, I wonder if the future Titans were the characters from Scissors, Paper, Stone, which was a pretty awesome Elseworlds Titans one-shot from back in the day, illustrated by Adam Warren.

Could only catch a brief glimpse of the character in the short.

Her powers do seem somewhat different in the show than in the comics, so I can see why he'd ask the question.

I would love to see Holocaust from the Blood Syndicate show up as he would be a good villain for the team.

And why is Rocket, who is a black character, immediately attracted to Aqualad, the only other black character? What, she can only like brothers?? That's racist! ;)


I know you're just kidding, but I think it was mainly because it was New Year's Eve and he was the only dude left (aside from a dismembered Red Tornado).

Are you kidding? He's part fish! His idea of a good time is for her to pop a squat on a sandbar then leave so he can arrive later and jizz on her eggs. That's got to be the worst sexual encounter any woman has ever been subjected to since Amy Terror's wedding night.
