Might not be as prevelant in todays BBxRae fics. In the glory days, that was a fairly common, bordering on cliche, BBxRae fanfic plot. Even some of the best used it, in those cases to better effect than most. That's probably where LM is getting the vibe from.

I haven't read any recent BB/Rae fanfics. Ever since the show was cancelled none of the ones I've been following have updated. I'm essentially in purgatory on the whole matter. Maybe I should see whats been made recently though.

KT's theory on the whole Gar/Rae thing might be true. After all, the cover shows the Titans' eyes are glowing in green. Raven's decision may have something to do with Joey being inside her.

But just like you DL, I am also tired of waiting. Just go straight to the point already, Didio! DX

I think we may well have seen the point by now if it weren't for all the delays and such. Titans #5 was delayed and redone (it's been said that the unfinished art done for #5 had a full blown kiss in it; it seems that if Winick had his way, we would have had full blown Dick/Kory and BBxRae by now). I think things are mostly on hiatus right now because of the coming writer shift.

It's an annoying wait, but we've been through worse. A two some year drought of anything really shippy, to be precise.

There are rumors that, get this, J. Torres may be the writer to take over for Winick. Talk about your real shot at the big time. No clue if it's got any merit, but Torres deserves a break at this point; the man was absolutely crushed when Family Dynamic was cut by three full issues.

To um up KT's theory for everyone, she thinks she's being controlled by Jericho. Either way, Raven doesn't want to give up Gar.

Lets hope this resolved soon, sure Winick could've written it earlier. But then we'd all be talking about how Winick broughbt the pairing to the forefront. Like anyone would take us seriously after that. I mean, a bad writer starting our ship means it would probably be written poorly. That would suck.

The only character shown to have their eyes glow green was Cyborg, Raven's did flash a particular lbue at one point, and I'd really like to know what he was trying to convey when he had Raven's floating head next to all the panels of her teammates, but I'm assuming as I have been that #11's cover is just a teaser for a "Who dunnit" theme where Jericho's in one of them, and you have to figure out who, whereas by the end of the issue it turns out to be Cyborg.

Also, why can't we have a single downtime issue where Cyborg isn't undergoing "repair". I know he needs to keep his stuff up-to-date and polished, but at this point it's getting a little ridiculous for him to constantly be in the Tower stuck while everyone else is walking around.

No clue. I figure it's just a way to shunt Cy off to the side due to lack of really knowing what to do with him. In which case I'd suggest bringing back some of Cyborgs old support cast, but McKeever is only doing the book for this issue and the Deathtrap crossover, so he couldn't exactly do anything like that with the book when he's not sticking around.

Hopefully the next writer does something more with him, because he's been very underutilized in this series thus far.

I try not to look into covers too much, myself, with there being rare exceptions. Generally they don't convey important details about what's inside the book these days. The cover sometimes ends up depicting things that don't even come close to happening within the issue.

Some think the cover imply's he can posses more than one person, but I'm kind of like you in that I think it was just an artistic representation of a "who could it be" type of thing. Again, covers aren't always the most reliable of things.

Are they any scans available from this issue?

Normally I put up scans provided by DeTroyes, but he doesn't want to put any up right now. With the recent shutdown of the original Scans_Daily, along with a couple others, he's been gunshy about posting any right now. Can't say as I blame him.

Can somebody explain to me what happened? Raven said that she only kissed him because he needed support or something like that. Is that true? I mean, she DID say that she feels about him the same way he feels about her AND she said that its difficult for her too. So what the hell does all that mean?

It means that she's in denial.

As I believe it has been said, this issue just screams fanfiction cliche'

Damn, I hope that she's trying to protect him, but Gar asked her about that, she said that she's just setting him "straight" whatever the hell that means.

Also, Xipz. Judging by your sig I have a feeling that you also are a huge Deadpool fan like myself, im sorry but i have bad news. The movie got leaked, i haven't seen it yet, but I know for a fact that that Baraka looking f@#k really is Deadpool. I refused to believe it until now...

Yeah, in a comic issue over two years ago. Xipz just posted the page in particular.

It was just her trying to sell the crap she was shoveling. I doubt she meant any of what she said and there's no way this is the end of things. Way too much foreshadowing and implications in that scene, from the Romeo and Juliet allusions and several other factors. She's misguided in attempts to "protect" him. But that's Raven for you.

I'm a Deadpool fan myself, but I'm not worried quite yet. For me, as long as Deadpool is the way he should be by the end I don't care much what happens to him on the way there. Besides, the leaked version is a workprint; not only is it missing special effects and the like, but it's apparently missing about twenty minutes of footage.

I'm waiting to see the theatrical version, then I'll make my judgements.
