Stand By Tby *BillWalko

Cartoons & Comics / Traditional Media / Comics / Other

"You guys want to see a dead body?" It's a Stephen King Comic Book mash-up... "Stand By T" (T as in, Teen Titans)

Done for "THE LINE IT IS DRAWN #107 – COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS MASHED UP WITH STEPHEN KING STORIES!"

Since so many have asked, here's a reasoning of the character match-ups:

Jerry O'Connell (Vern) is Aqualad: The insecure member of the group had to the Silver Age era Aqualad, since he suffered from an inferiority due to his power limitations. Like O'Connell, Aqualad later came into his own (as Tempest) and married a hottie (Rebecca Romijn/Dolphin)

Corey Feldman (Teddy) is Robin: This is causing concern to some, but Robin has to be Teddy due to the abusive father angle - a role Batman is most apt to fill. Plus, the glasses doubling as the Robin mask is too good a visual.

River Phoenix (Chris) is Speedy: Swagger. Bad boy attitude. Chris is very close in personality to Speedy, so this was a natural fit. I considered Speedy as Teddy, but the River Phoenix character suits neither Robin nor Kid Flash. Nope, River Phoenix is totally Speedy, no question.

Wil Wheaton (Gordie) is Kid Flash: At first it seems natural to place Robin in this role, but Gordie doesn't share as many character traits with Robin as he does with Kid Flash. Skinny Midwestern kid from a normal family? That's the Silver Age Kid Flash!

Love the thought you put into this Bill.

You make a great case for a Teddy as Robin. Teddy's completely misplaced admiration of an abusive father really fits him best. It is an incredibly tragic and depressing view of Robin, but it makes a lot of sense.

Chris has to be Roy. Completely natural fit.
