@zeeguy91: No people outside comic fans could name 1 villain from Teen Titans. Magneto>>>>>>>>>any Titan Villain. Hell I'll play your game. Let's list Gambits villains shall we, since technically he's part of the Xmen. Magneto, Apocalypse, Juggernaut, The Sentinels, Mystique, Mr. Sinister, Sabretooth, Onslaught, Dark Phoenix, Master Mold, Nimrod, Stryfe, Omega Red, Silver Samurai, The Brood, Gladiator and the Shiar Guard, etc etc. The Xmen have had 5 films, not too mention Wolverine 2 solos. Teen Titans has had 2 cartoons. Xmen have one of the most popular characters of all time trumping any character on Teen Titans, Wolverine. Cyborg isn't even the most popular Teen Titan so I'm not sure why you act like anyone truly cares about him. Let me know when he care carry his own series for a significant length of time and his movie takes in hundreds of millions of dollars. Xmen has far more popularity than Teen Titans. The fact you think otherwise is laughable. How many memorable runs besides Marv Wolfmans/George Perez could you even name? I couldn't name one. Xmen have and abundance of popular and memorable runs. Now Aquaman? One good run by Geoff Johns doesn't wash away the joke that is Aquaman. When people in other parts of media stop making jokes along with non comic fans and everyone starts taking him seriously maybe you'll have a point. Till then he'll remain the joke of the comic world.
1. Pretty much anyone who has ever seen the Teen Titans cartoon or Arrow could tell you who Deathstroke is. Thats a lot of people.
2. I never said "let's compare TT villains to X-villains." You said Cyborg had no villains, I listed a bunch of villains that Cyborg does have.
3. Okay, how many of those villains has Gambit fought personally?Cyborg has fought all of those characters I mentioned himself.
4. Uh, hello. Ever hear of Nightwing/Robin, who is universally known among almost everyone who has ever heard of Batman...which is everyone.
5. Since when does not being the most popular mean that nobody cares about you? Gambit is definitely not the most popular X-Men member. Hell, he isn't even a particularly important X-Men member. Does that mean nobody cares about him? Cuz it would by your logic.
6. I never said that I thought the TT was more popular. I'm not stupid. I am well aware that NOW X-Men is more popular, but back in the 80s it wasn't. And the Teen Titans are still a popular team, given the massive popularity of their cartoon in the aughts and now. The X-Men were essentially propelled through the 90s because they had a similarly popular cartoon.
7. When was the last time Gambit had a movie that took in hundreds of millions of dollars? Cuz I'm pretty sure it was never. Also, I guess you missed the hundreds of fans that campaigned for a solo Cyborg series, myself included, and finally got it.
8. Uh, I can name the Geoff Johns/Mike McKone run, which was named one of the best runs on any comic of the past decade. And, let's be honest, the list for X-Men runs thins once we get outside of Chris Claremont. In terms of runs that were truly notable, I can think of maybe Joss Whedon, Peter David, and Frank Miller. The modern X-Men comics, however, are a joke.
9. I have actually never heard anyone make an Aquaman joke. The only mainstream Aquaman jokes I've seen have come from Robot Chicken and Family Guy, but those shows have lampooned almost every comic character, from Batman to even the X-Men. And, besides, Aquaman could still probably kick Gambit's ass...pretty easily.
10. So, is this what you do whenever you hear things aren't going well in the world of Marvel-related media? Pick a random DC character to bash? Because, truth be told, its getting pretty old and its really just a sign of immaturity on your part.
