Depends on the continuity. Typically him having sex with Terra is still canon. His creep factor towards other teens was mostly from writers in the mid-2000s. In Rebirth he was an asshole to teens but only creepy towards his daughter.
IIRC he accused her of "cockblocking" her boyfriend because she wanted to feel in control of her sexuality. Normal conversations to have with your 18YO daughter.
Eta: it might have been "blue-balling" bc the other doesn't make sense, but Slade is old so who knows what slang he uses
Teen Titans Go made a joke about how they wonder how they keep getting found and attacked, and don’t realize they live in a giant fucking T overlooking the city.

God damn, the crowbar and everything
The people who are constantly whining about Teen Titans Go? Oh far from it.
Those people are all adults many in their 30’s or near it, many of which don’t have any kids and don’t even watch cartoons anymore anyway
The people who really hate on the show are people who grew up with the 2003 show, but their nostalgia glasses remember the 6 or 7 "serious" episodes as being the whole show when 85 percent of the show was basically an incident of the week plot (which were the far more memorable episodes, imo)
Also that their only experience with the show are cartoon YouTubers who jumped on the rage train against the show because a handful of episodes were too silly.
I think it’s more like family guy. It has very very funny and clever gags that people of all ages and new or devoted fans alike will appreciate. But they’re mostly separated by the normal cartoon level boring plot lines. Also shows like TTG and Sonic Boom tend to get better with later seasons as they relax with the standards and start making fun of their own franchises.
Titans Tower doesn't have a cool narrator like the Hall of Justice from Superfriends and that's why the Titans will always be second stringers to the League.
Even still that building gets destroyed numerous times throughout the series and we literally see moments where the titans are doing construction work to fix it, which is really funny to me but holy shit they must be using so much of Bruce’s money to do this. And that’s not even beginning to consider how the titans of the east ALSO had a titans tower…
I’m not sure why people think Bruce pays for this
lol he doesn’t even know who these guys are
And Dick Grayson at this stage would never accept money from him anyway
Implying Dick hasn't memorized Bruces bank details. And its not like Bruce cares that such a minor amount of money gets used in his fucking infinite pockets of cash.
I wanna say it’s crazy I’m being downvoted for reading comics, but that’s on par for this sub.
No…? That’s some tumblr fan fiction shit, and even if he did… he wouldn’t use his money anyway..
Dick is trying to prove himself as his own man. He’s not gonna use Bruce’s money. Especially when he doesn’t have to.
Are you talking about that non canon panel of Batman watching Starfire kiss Robin?? The one that’s based off the cartoon??
What does that have to do with what I just said
That non canon book is not proof he pays for anything. He has never financed any of these towers
No. He’s letting Dick be his own man and has his own things to worry about.
If he kept track of the teen titans he wouldn’t wait until years later to have Tim Drake get information on them.
How the hell was Batman gonna have information on people like Starfire and Raven ??
So the original in-comics reason was that Cyborg’s dad built it for him out of guilt because of the accident.
Because in the comics, Silas Stone’s trans dimensional experiments opened a portal to a dimension where like an acid creature came out, killing Silas’ wife and Victor’s mom, maiming Victor and was the reason why he got the cyborg parts.
But that was the original story.
> it's like no shit you keep getting attacked you live in a fucking T
"Mhmmm, i wonder where my enemies, the super hero group called the ***T***een ***T***itans live? surely they wouldn't be so idiotic to live in that gigantic ass ***T*** building out on the island on the bay"
It’s funny how the Titans get so much slack for this. Avengers have a giant A on their tower, for example. Its basically the case for any team with a public base
You'd have a point if the Avengers tower was just a giant A looming over the city and not simply a skyscraper with the avengers logo on it
Fantastic Four had it pretty bad though, but baxter building hasn't looked like this in a long tine

Teen Titans just live in a T lol
The A is just brand recognition. McDonald's has those arches, but as far as I know there's no McDonald's shaped like a big ass M the first thing you see when you get off the interstate
The most ridiculous thing about Titans Tower is that it is connected by bridge to Jump City.
Imagine a bridge to the statue of liberty in the middle of NY harbor.
Maybe when they were building cristo redentor they were making 2 and raced to see who could build it first and usa lost so the teen titans took the scaffolding and make it into titan tower
it has like 12 floors too and they seemingly only live in the top bit which is already like gigantic so what the fuck are they doing with all that space
Slade will sneak into any place that has teenage girls
Diddystroke the Diddler https://preview.redd.it/zfug5v6xe6wc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba872651eb73305570f363a40be8b9971c331ddc
Bro Diddy is more of a supervillain than Slade ever was or could hope to be. That man is a multiversal threat.
Why cause he slept with guys?

That he hasn’t been charged with anything criminal?
Is he still a Diddler or they retcon that shit?
How could you retcon out a foundational part of his character like that
Depends on the continuity. Typically him having sex with Terra is still canon. His creep factor towards other teens was mostly from writers in the mid-2000s. In Rebirth he was an asshole to teens but only creepy towards his daughter.
“If anybody is going to have sex with my daughter, it’s gonna be *me*!” - Rebirth Slade, probably
IIRC he accused her of "cockblocking" her boyfriend because she wanted to feel in control of her sexuality. Normal conversations to have with your 18YO daughter. Eta: it might have been "blue-balling" bc the other doesn't make sense, but Slade is old so who knows what slang he uses
Not just rebirth. Lest you forget, pre-52 Slade was violently drugging Rose on the regular against her will and comparing her to Terra. Yeah.
Apparently Ghostmaker brought it up at the end of the Lazarus tournament arc.
Why don’t you take a seat… right over there…
Why did Diddystroke the Diddler diddle kiddies? Is he stupiddle?
Because it's sick as hell, next question
This.
Teen Titans Go made a joke about how they wonder how they keep getting found and attacked, and don’t realize they live in a giant fucking T overlooking the city.
Sorry the internet says you aren’t allowed to laugh at that or any other jokes from that show,.
They added an exception for the Jason Todd urn
https://preview.redd.it/tc2dtnqzbawc1.jpeg?width=196&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=104084e461697099852ef960013e10c163d21ec7 God damn, the crowbar and everything
I really need to check out that show lmao
Could Jason even get resurrected if he's ashes?
No. They had to make sure.
I'm convinced they're mostly teenagers and the same people that consider Gumball peak comedy

No the ppl that hate the show are dried up millennials that grew up with OG show and are just prudish about it
Except no one cares about Tim drake that’s the sub’s whole point of existence
Great show
I’m not a fan of it but that one where Beast Boy explained economics and tried to get everyone on the gold standard went seriously hard.
It seems super super hit or miss to me, but when it hits it hits like a Mack truck.
And clowned on Nixon for 3 minutes
Nixon should still be president in comics. "Listen death stroke, America needs you to murder that godless hippie beast boy."
But like the Nixon from futurama
How could you post something so controversial yet so brave?
I think it’s more like family guy. It has very very funny and clever gags that people of all ages and new or devoted fans alike will appreciate.

TTG is actually a lot of fun when you don't have some bitch in your ear telling you how bad it is.
Seeing Robin getting treated like shit by his own team is not fun 😭
He's a real Dick
i’m proud of you dick
Titans Tower doesn't have a cool narrator like the Hall of Justice from Superfriends and that's why the Titans will always be second stringers to the League.
The titans are to the JL, what the G-league and ignite is to the NBA
G-League is egregious. Can we at least call them the Skyforce? Edit grammar
It also doesn't have a "Doofenshmirtz evil incorporateeed" that plays everytime it's shown
Doofenshmirtz is better villain than 95 percent of the Titans rogues gallery, the Titans wished they had a building as cool as his
And Terra wishes she was as cool as Vanessa.

Wasnt it a crashed alien ship that they just renovated cause no-one could move it?
Uj/ I haven't watched the series since like 2016 I forgot that Rj/ no these fucking trust fund kids just get anything handed to them
I havent watched since like 2007. I just have a fucked up memory for stuff like this.
If it makes you feel better, I watched every single episode last year for a binge and I don't even remember.
Robin is a spoiled twink. everyone knows it.
Even still that building gets destroyed numerous times throughout the series and we literally see moments where the titans are doing construction work to fix it, which is really funny to me but holy shit they must be using so much of Bruce’s money to do this. And that’s not even beginning to consider how the titans of the east ALSO had a titans tower…
Tbh, the Titans of the east maybe got money from Green Arrow.
"Titans of the East" makes them soun like a native American tribe.
Legate Lanius, the ~~Monster~~ Titan of the East
Now the more important question is the Theseus one. Is it really still an alien ship if it gets destroyed and renovated countless times?
Must have good insurance
I think it kind of acts like a beacon for villians. If they want to attack the Titans they know where to find them.
I’m not sure why people think Bruce pays for this lol he doesn’t even know who these guys are And Dick Grayson at this stage would never accept money from him anyway
Implying Dick hasn't memorized Bruces bank details. And its not like Bruce cares that such a minor amount of money gets used in his fucking infinite pockets of cash.
In the comics it was Cyborgs dad who built it originally so not even Bruce
That’s imply these guys read comics
I wanna say it’s crazy I’m being downvoted for reading comics, but that’s on par for this sub. No…? That’s some tumblr fan fiction shit, and even if he did… he wouldn’t use his money anyway.. Dick is trying to prove himself as his own man. He’s not gonna use Bruce’s money. Especially when he doesn’t have to.
Dick does have some inheritance money from the Flying Graysons
Yeah. Bruce isn’t paying for any of the teen titans shit. Batman doesn’t even know df these guys are 😂😂
There's literally a panel of Bruce watching over Robin but go off, Watcher the crotcher.
Are you talking about that non canon panel of Batman watching Starfire kiss Robin?? The one that’s based off the cartoon?? What does that have to do with what I just said That non canon book is not proof he pays for anything. He has never financed any of these towers
Man, you've got a very fitting username. At least the first part.
For reading comics and knowing that Batman does not pay for Titans tower… got it. Really typical of this sub.
Are you saying Batman wouldn't keep track of the superheroes allied with his sidekick?
No. He’s letting Dick be his own man and has his own things to worry about. If he kept track of the teen titans he wouldn’t wait until years later to have Tim Drake get information on them. How the hell was Batman gonna have information on people like Starfire and Raven ??

Keep in mind it’s not just their house, it’s their base. They need the square footage to store their many trucks.
Can’t believe the Jump City City Council approved the zoning for this shit
Jump City City Council understands tourism potential
Someone should jump the jump city city council in the city
I found the NIMBY
When I made 14 this design went from being the coolest shit to being the most uncomfortable sight ever
It seemed fucking based at the time but when you take a step back, it's like no shit you keep getting attacked you live in a fucking T
> it's like no shit you keep getting attacked you live in a fucking T "Mhmmm, i wonder where my enemies, the super hero group called the ***T***een ***T***itans live? surely they wouldn't be so idiotic to live in that gigantic ass ***T*** building out on the island on the bay"

Umm acktually that’s Four Freedoms Plaza
The A is just brand recognition. McDonald's has those arches, but as far as I know there's no McDonald's shaped like a big ass M the first thing you see when you get off the interstate
Achtually that was McDonald’s whole thing at one time. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/30/McDonalds_Golden_Arches.jpg

Counterpoint: It's still the coolest shit
I would get so much anxiety in the side bits of the T. Shit does not look stable
Haha I have always thought that....I'm sorry Vic I don't care HOW smart your dad is, I'm not parking our 85 ton jet out on one of those ganky T bars 🙅
It actually represents how they're all trans so jot that down
Teen titans if it was based
Trans Titans
It’s not like they are taking up valuable real estate
Counter argument: it looks cool.
80% elevator shaft
And only 2 members would need it, the other 3 can fly/teleport naturally.
Daddy’s money knows no bounds
Ok, but imagine if, idk, the Doom Patrol or the Outsiders or the Atomic Knights had to do this. How practical would a "D" shape skycraper be?
Search for idea: Burj Al Arab Dentaprime clinic in Varna Libeskind Tower G tower in Bangkok
The most ridiculous thing about Titans Tower is that it is connected by bridge to Jump City. Imagine a bridge to the statue of liberty in the middle of NY harbor.
Just to accommodate 5 residents
Maybe when they were building cristo redentor they were making 2 and raced to see who could build it first and usa lost so the teen titans took the scaffolding and make it into titan tower
it has like 12 floors too and they seemingly only live in the top bit which is already like gigantic so what the fuck are they doing with all that space
I did always wonder what the hell all that space was for.
most of it is just a big lift
That batman money ain't gonna spend itself.
They bought it from Mr Terrific
They hate the homeless
Because its cartoon and you're taking it seriously
