What's up with the Raven love???

[shaowebb]

• Daughter of a devil of enormous power.
• Goth.
• Teleporter.
• Soul Self Raven to teleport others.
• Empath and Telekinetic.
• Great outfit.
• Extremely popular character on the Cartoon.
• One of the most influencial characters ever in Teen Titans comic.

All good reasons for an inclusion. She's got personality, name recognition with both casuals and comic fans, fills a niche in personality types and themes, looks, and moveset potential.

 

[Espio]

Damn can't even be hype for a character lol.



I loved her in the cartoon and really clicked with her personality, especially her sarcasm and humor. Raven's not really a traditional hero, which is intriguing to me.

I liked that despite her father and her origins...she wanted to be different, she wanted to show that where you come from doesn't determine what you have to be in life.


I love her costume in the animated series and telekinetic powers/magic are marvelous .

Azarah Metrion Zinthos is so classy <3.

only took 10 for you to make this topic?

lmao .

 

[EGP Wonder_Chef]

That's incredibly debatable. Her entire character is "Daddy hates me and I hate him. Also I hang out with teenagers all day."

to be fair, you could kind of describe anybody that way:


Batman: Some dude who's parents died so he's all dark and emo.

Joker: Just some crazy clown who is a bad guy for no reason.

etc.



I'm sure there's more to her character than that.

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Screw you guys, Teen Titans was a def fav cartoon to me back then.Plus it's the only DC-related thing I care about.

Nightwing , Cyborg and Deathstroke being is the game is a huge + for me.

Plus (Hypocrite TYM moment #3 or #4 I lost track), you guys suck Batman characters's dicks in any opportunity you can.

 

[CrazySlasher]

I don't know and I do not care about her. There are so many more interesting characters that could be in the game.

 

[Zoidberg747]

The question is, why the fuck do you care?

 

[shaowebb]

I don't know and I do not care about her. There are so many more interesting characters that could be in the game.

Please enlighten me as to your choices. Likely there are some good ones in there, but I really want to know so I can compare bullet points on market viability for that character. Raven is smart money , likeable, and usable for unique playstyle. Its a hard choice to top as a good safe add.

The MOST random character in DC? I think every batman villain ever might have a run at that title. A crazy clown murderer, a murderer who communicates in riddles, a penguinish fellow who kills people with weapons themed on his friendly arctic look-alikes, a giant crocodile man, someones who's face got partially burned so BAM...murder.

Catwoman is just a bad pun on cat burglars, so that's better. I think.

Almost all comic book characters are hella random without suspension of disbelief. Is half demon as ridiculous as a fish speaking KING of Atlantis?

 

[G4S Killin Natzees]

prince of Atlantis?

KING of Atlantis

 

[Reedoms]

I'm sure there's more to her character than that.

I'm sure it could be expanded but no writer ever does. It's either "Raven: In her brand new Emo series!" or "Holy shit guys, Trigon is attacking me again!"

It used to be about the funny.

 

[Swagrid]

Yeah that. To spin it another way, king of a hypothetical city Plato came up with for a thought experiment.

The ray
Zatanna
Black Canary
Mr Freeze/Captain Cold
Jonah Hex
Doctor Fate
Doomsday
Darkseid

Just off the top of my head. Its personal preference btw, some of us just dont find raven as interesting as others.

 

[Playpal]

Raven's trigon arc in the teen titans show was around the time teen titans got good.

I kinda stopped watching after that, so for all I know it could have been the only good story arc.

 

[Shadowknight1]

Well, with this thread, I wonder how long until we get a "What's up with the Swamp Thing love???" thread...

I can guarantee you 70% of em will say the 90's show that ran for like 6 episodes.

Can't agree with some of that list: The Ray is just boring to me; Black Canary brings practically nothing to the table, same with Hex; Darkseid is just another big guy.

Its fine. Read the bottom part of my post.

The ray was honestly just because I was talking to shaowebb lol

 

[Playpal]

Swamp thing's pretty awesome. He's got awesome powers and shit and his comic's pretty good.

The beginning of his comic is confusing as fuck though. Not new-reader-friendly at all.

Oh, it's all personal preference but I do love a good debate.

I like Jonah Hex a lot personally. I kind of see him as Deathstroke using crazy guns, along with maybe bringing back people from the dead to fight with him(Sort of like Parasoul if you played skullgirls). It wont ever happen though lol.

If they ever do Injustice 2 you never know. I just don't see him in this game, he'd just be like a melding of two different characters and that can definitely go to a fate or something.


Also, again, if there MUST be another martial artist it should be Karate Kid and not Robin.

 

[Bolo Yeung]

Nobody cares about your personal preferences. The roster was determined by focus group popularity and whichever characters DC feels like pushing at the moment.

Should be more Batman then.

 

[KiD INsAnitY]

Raven is just as interesting as any of them. Idk what role she will play in story tho.

 

[Krayzie]

Im a big fan of the Teen Titans Tv series. She was my second favorite next to Cyborg.

Her nightmares episode was my favorite one because It showed how strong she was.

My question is... Are you really complaining about Raven, a character that played a major role on a popular show?
