Beast Boy vs the Robins is a really interesting question because the way they present themselves and their personas is so radically different.

Robins, for example basically start from square one, maybe with a skill in a very specific lane like gymnastics or acrobatics. Then they work to build off of that, weightlifting to stand toe-to-toe with demigods, sourcing tech to fly alongside superhumans. And they have to think around their problems, improvise on the fly, swing up rather than punch down, flee rather than fight.

And they always, always have to over-posit themselves. Leverage the intimidation factor as much as humanly possible because everything else counts against them. If they’re in pain, no they aren’t. If they fucked up, no they didn’t. If they improvised that, no they planned it from the beginning.

The most important thing is that a Robin backed into a corner always bites.

Beast Boy however was granted legendary power as a matter of luck. And he’s lived with that, trained to utilise that for most of his life. At the slightest provocation he could stomp you under an elephant foot or bite you with a crocodile mouth. A tiger paw can decapitate a person with a hard smack. Or if he’s feeling creative, he can sneak into an apartment as a fly and then inject the target with the deadliest venom known to man.

His power is pretty much limitless, with no conceivable drawbacks like Kryptonite or “yellow”. He can turn into a dinosaur or a dragon. He can turn into fucking Starro, a creature that goes to toe to toe with the Justice League regularly! If Garfield Logan so desired, he could turn into a big space whale, crush the earth and then live his merry life.

You wouldn’t know that by talking to him.

He pretty much downplays his skill at every given opportunity. Preferring to pour his energy into socialising, acting, playing with his friends. He has one of the most tragic backstories in Titans canon, but he’s a friendly happy-go-lucky dude who doesn’t take sparring seriously and could take or leave the superhero life, but he just wants hang out with his bros.

So that’s the kicker isn’t it. Who would you rather be defeated by. A team leader, who no matter what, is gonna try and bring their all against you, every time.

Or

A superhero who isn’t even trying?

Dick Grayson is a living legend.

This guy is literally being run ragged but he still makes time to do everything.

Barely even getting time to change in between jobs.

He's on a call managing several duties and worries at once.

He's so intense that

He literally makes himself sick from overwork.

And literally not even a week later he's dealing with Deathstroke collapsing at the Titans Tower

Like this man can multitask like a god but also he really just needs a break, not that he's ever going to take one because everyone needs him for something all the time.

Whether it's heroes dropping by Bludhaven to ask for help on a case, the titans calling him for solutions, the government's military division calling him to help them, Batman requesting his presence, the batfamily dropping into his apartment for help, advice, and comfort, Batman also needing him to act as his emotional support, people wanting to date him, his friends needing his comfort and to solve their own problems, other teams needing his interference to deescalate a situation, teaching other heroes-it's insane how much the dc hero community revolves around him. He literally keeps the ball rolling and the community functioning.

I stan this man so hard. He's just a nonstop machine and the epicenter of the heroes. Every movement he makes ripples outward and affects everyone.

Ever heard the song "Legends Never Die"?

They're written down in eternity But you'll never see the price it costs The scars collected all of their lives

When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts And avenge defeat Before it all starts, they suffer through harm Just to touch a dream Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause

Legends never die

That's him.

My pookie is so overworked 😭✋
