I think there is a legitimate argument to be made that Cyborg is most interesting character in the Teen Titans, (or even the early 20’s Titans or what ever they call them after only beast boy is still a teenager) but he’s supposed to be a YOUNG man and shoe-horning him in to the adults of the Justice League was just ham handed and stupid.
Absolutely! His struggle is really unique, and society’s fears are really starting to align with the potential horrors of transhumanism. But it feels like every onscreen DC team for the past 10 years includes him, and I’m starting to want to see something new.
That’s why Mr. Terrific was such a good character to put in the Justice Gang. I’m pretty sure even after the Brave and the Bold Batman is going to be sidelined a bit in bigger stories for awhile to let the Reeves Batman be its own thing and Michael Holt being the smartest guy in the room and his “I’m goddamn Mr. Terrific” attitude will fill that bad ass normal slot in the League really well.
