Once her powers inevitably return and she's sick of living with Starfire's Titans friends, Blackfire could become the major villain Titans originally promised. Though her timeout session seems to have calmed the fiery instincts seen in season 2, Blackfire could be a time bomb waiting to go off. Blackfire first appeared when she arrived on Earth in the second episode 'Sisters' where she gave Starfire a. She is the former Grand Ruler/Empress of Tamaran and serves as Starfire's arch-nemesis and an enemy of the Teen Titans. This might've then forced a rethink on Blackfire's situation, and a dialing down of her evil qualities into something more comedic, thereby allowing Jason Todd to take center stage.įortunately, all is not lost for Blackfire in Titans season 3. Blackfire (real name Komand'r) is the firstborn eldest daughter and princess of the long-dead King and Queen of Tamaran and the older sister of Starfire and Wildfire. ![]() It's possible that between Titans seasons 2 & 3, the decision was made to amplify Jason's role and designate Red Hood as season 3's main villain. Though Titans season 2 ended with Jason distanced from the other Titans and angry at the world, there was no overt suggestion that he'd immediately transition into Red Hood. Her older sister, Komand'r was the next in the line of succession, but she was crippled by a childhood illness that robbed her of her natural Tamareanian ability to convert ultraviolet light in to flight energy, so she was deemed not worthy to be queen and the succession. ![]() The reason for Titans' Blackfire retcon could be Jason Todd's transformation into Red Hood. Tamaran's Princess Koriand'r was the second of three children. This surely isn't what Titans had in mind when Blackfire possessed an innocent parent and abandoned the victim's children in season 2's finale. She and Kori beat each other up for a while, taking out their respective sisterly baggage, then Starfire marches her evil sister home like a naughty child, lining up a more comedic role for Blackfire. What's the point in a post-credits introduction for a major new villain, only for them to show up next season powerless and jailed? In an even bigger change of direction, Blackfire may not be a villain at all in Titans season 3. Works and bookmarks tagged with Blackfire/Starfire will show up in Komandr/Koriandr (DCU)s filter.

That's quite the anticlimax, and makes the hype surrounding her arrival look silly in hindsight. Works Bookmarks This tag belongs to the Relationship Category. After making a grand entrance at the end of season 2, the raging Blackfire apparently strutted straight into a containment cage. That foreshadowing has been ignored in Titans season 3, with Blackfire's absence leaving her firmly on the back burner, and when Blackfire finally does resurface, Titans shifts the emphasis of her character entirely.
