    Actually, the Cyborg model from that (abandoned) animated Anti-Drug PSA was actually used for the character in Hanna-Barbara's "Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians" series (the final entry in their 'Super Friends' series) where he was the Justice League's latest recruit.

    The first comic was my first exposure to the Teen Titans besides old reruns of the 60s cartoon. (I'm not THAT old.) I really liked the characters, including the Protector so it saddens me to see Tom King ruin him. Just another problem I have with him. I think one of the sequel comics actually has the Protector's origin though.

    I think DC comics should use the protector as a alternate persona of the robins when they need to play hero and have a more open persona. I think that the protector main line hero should be the result of a mishap of grayson (night-wing) who spends his time trying to help the protector come to terms with drug themed problem, his sheild is a bat-family "relic" that acts as his bat-arang and has some deep attachment linked to a darker theme, such as the occult like the hero medallion, a literal family shield from antiquity (possibly a Wayne family connection like an old Wayne rival from Thomas Wayne's era), or is apart of the protectors own drug filled hallucination.

With that said, I first heard of the Protector during Linkara's videos on the Teen Titans anti-drug comics rather than in Heroes in Crisis, was really surprised to see him in there... and really confused as to what the heck actually even happened in the latest issue.

    In brazil, they used the original version from the storyline on the comic books with robin originally, only the commercial they kept the protector on. I still have my original comics from the 80's with me, since I'm a true original titans fan since they first assemble in the 80's. Even now, living in USA I never knew that he was scrapped from the story due to a cookie battle in court. I guess outside the USA the original story was kept in every publication around the world. You should make a video showing diferences on publications and story arcs from different countries, that would give enough material for a new series of videos. I hope that would make it work. I loved the channel by the way. I started randomly by watching the crisis episode and have been binge watching of your D.C. content ever since. By the way, you should make more videos about the titans, I couldn't find a lot about about them, we titans fans do exist, and we're here. Xoxo

    7:44 Yea, it's not like the show NEVER has any good episodes. The ones revolving around the song "Night Begins to Shine" are great too. The movie was just kind of so-so though IMO. I know a lot of people, even people who don't like the show liked it but I only sort of liked it. Also PPG vs TTG was one of the best episodes of both shows and while it's technically OK KO, I'm also counting Crossover Nexus, which was also one of the best episodes of the four involved shows (I personally find the OK KO crossovers just as hit and miss as the show is in general too, the RPG World one was also great but the Ghoul School one made by scratch my head at all the forced references and "jokes" and the Captain Planet one was mediocre at best).

    The Protector doesnt need a series but he Needs Well written screen time i think the obscure deadpool like aproach would bring comedy apeal being they used him to sub for robin on a one time teen titan comic against drugs i want to see him show up but ONLY to fight drug related instances and he'd literally not go on missions because there aren't drugs n because he's often not on missions he just starts fuckin smoking lmao

    Actually... you seem to be forgetting 'Who is Wonder Girl?' where The Protector was one of the corruptions of hypertime .

      @@ComicDrake You mentioned alternate universe and cameoes. This more than that. His role was fairly big.
      Another place the Protector was seen (not mentioned) because you REALLY have to look... is Kingdom Come.

      @@jessewilley531, The panel on the left is from Who is Wonder Girl. He appeared on that page and that was it. He did not have much of a role outside of that based on when I read it last week.

      He was actually a very clever McGuffin/Clue to Dark Angel's whole plan. She was trying to get Donna to feel irrelevant or even that she wasn't real. (In part because her then origin was as Diana's imaginary friend come to life.) What better way to do that than to make her think she was on a team/friends with a 'fake character'.
      Of course this makes the appearance in the Secret Files two months before (in a story set AFTER that) a bit problematic. As how could a hero who never existed show up at a recruitment drive. Then again, that was a preview for a miniseries that doesn't exist so maybe that was meant as another clue.

    Here is an interesting idea:
    Replace Jason Hart with Jason Todd.

    IIRC, George Perez said the reason why Dick got the Disco collar was to make up to female fans of Robin since he would no longer be wearing short pants.

    Why does the old Teen Titans look like adults playing teenagers? Why did Starfire even have that original outfit? How old were these teens?
