After a short while the original Wonder Girl (Donna Troy) joined their ranks and the team started calling itself the Teen Titans before it was given its own series. The first formation of the Teen Titans occurred in 1964 and featured the original Kid Flash (Wally West), Robin (Dick Grayson) and Aqualad (Garth). The Teen Titans are a team of teenaged heroes in the DC universe, usually the sidekicks of the universe’s adult heroes, but also featuring several characters without mentors. That is why for this Throwback Thursday I will be looking at the first collected volume of the series, Teen Titans: A Kid’s Game.

Dick and Starfire had a long, sexual relationship after this point and Starfire, learning all of these new emotions from Dick, found that she might be falling in love. She soon met Dick Grayson, a human boy she found attractive and tried to make hers but he taught her about love, and how it works. After arriving on Earth however, she found that finding a lover was different and there was this concept she didn't understand: Love.

Prior to coming to earth, Starfire has had many lovers on her planet. Half of the things she does gets on men's nerves since she doesn't know how she's attracting them, due to on Tamaran none of the things she does is considered "sexy" but a way of life. Starfire can instantly assimilate other languages simply through physical contact with the other person, and if that other person is male, she will usually kiss them (often without any warning) since it is more fun for her that way.
