I don't know how they made her look more like a hooker in this when she's not showing much skin compared to her costumes in the comics...

Beast Boy was okay, wish he was green though. I can see why he isn't, the paint or whatever would be time and budget intensive...

Why the focus on Raven this early? Until the team is more established, she's meant to be a smaller role, with her healing and empath powers etc being more prominent than her personality.

Dick Grayson isn't Jason Todd, he wouldn't be so violent towards those thugs and wouldn't say "**** Batman" like that. Even when he became Knightwing he didn't separate himself from Bruce and his teachings that much.

Spoiler:

The Batman in this is, from what we see and hear of him, a pretty dark / brutal take on the character and believe it or not Robin as violent as he is, seems to have left because of how dark Batman got .

Also, Nu Robin (Jason Todd) is in this later on for an episode-and-a-bit (and seems to be back in season 2) and is clearly distinguished as being more violent / chaotic than Grayson.


Its just a darker and more violent take on the Batman universe I think clearly more in the ballpark of Batfleck, who was twisting spines and cracking skulls all through BvS. Its a bit more realistic than most vigilante stuff to be fair. In realz, it's not realistic for someone to be out tackling violent criminals without shedding some blood.
