TITANS Promos Reveal Why Robin Left Batman And Show Beast Boy's Powers In Action
A couple of new promos for Titans have been released by DC Universe and these shed some light on why Dick Grayson quit as Batman's sidekick and also show Beast Boy's transforming abilities in action...
Titans looks set to deliver a much darker take on the team than what most fans are used to seeing in the comic books and that was evident from the moment Robin declared, "F*** Batman!" in the first teaser trailer. Why does Dick Grayson feel that way about his former mentor? Well, the promo below reveals that while he used to admire the Dark Knight, he walked away for a very good reason.
Apparently, he felt that he was becoming too much like Batman, something which could explain why he's so violent in this series. Whether that will change as time goes on remains to be seen but it's clear that we're getting an R-Rated take on the Teen Titans here, so bloody violence is to be expected.
A second promo for Titans, meanwhile, shows Beast Boy using his powers as he transforms into a tiger. The special effects here look pretty solid and given the quality of the costumes (which do look a little better than what we see on The CW), Warner Bros. has clearly spent some money on the series for its new DC Universe streaming service. Are you guys excited to check the show out when it hits?
