Qualities which saw him acheive the pinnacle of success he was able to reach in even gaining his own TV show. As a result he scrapped and worked his way to carve out a pretty good life for himself, but became an "old bastard" - he acts like he has all of the answers, is never short of an opinion and very willing to stuff it in your face. He grew up on the bottom rung of a city so corrupt it makes Gotham look like Pee-wee's Playhouse. The song fits because Vic Sage is a man who's been forced to compactualise life into a way that completely makes sense to him in order to survive. The facility's already a powder keg when Donna Troy busts in looking for Artemis, and that's the spark that sets off a full-blown rebellion of fed-up super-powered teenagers, all that angst and doubt and raging hormones and conflicting ideas exploding in the HIVE's faces. While being trained and psychologically programmed by Queen Bee and her minions, the members of Titan Squad are conflicted between their own morals and what the HIVE leaders are putting in their heads. The HIVE Rebellion/"Titans, GO!" "Get Up" by KoRn Nobody does cybernetic post-humanism like Ghost In The Shell, which has a lot of concepts I'd love to play around with if I do some Cyborg-heavy story arcs. Cyborg: "Run Rabbit Junk" from Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex As a shape-shifting clone of Gar Logan, UDC's Changeling could be the ultimate Pinocchio complex: he can be anything he wants, except a real boy. That's why I picked a song that sounds both happy and sad at the same time. Going off of Carnage's run, I see Changeling as somebody who really has to force himself to put on a happy face, to try and gloss over the traumatic experiences he's had since his creation. Changeling: "On Melancholy Hill" by Gorillaz I wish they had a studio version of this song. And the tone of the song has that sort of wide-eyed, uncertain but excited quality that I see in Kori. The instrument has a very otherworldly sound to it, the kind of thing you'd expect to see humanoid hippie-type aliens playing. Looking around for some music to keep in mind for the UDC Teen Titans, I think I've found a couple more: Starfire: "Evolution" by Dante Bucci If the first one was intimidating, this one is downright apocalyptic. The Justice League: "Hell March 3" from Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 I think the Peter Gabriel cover is absolutely perfect for UDC Batman, too (though that may be because of the "Batman Complex" trailer where they imply that Bruce Wayne is insane, and MB's Batman is definitely toeing the line): UDC Legion of Doom: "Hell March" from Command and Conquer: Red Alert So naturally, he needs some appropriately angsty music. Now that Dick Grayson isn't out to kill Batman, he's loaded down with even more issues of guilt (blaming himself for leaving Bruce weak enough for Bane to cripple him), anger at letting Tony Zucco get away with his father's murder, his complicated relationship with Raven, and the unwanted responsibilities of being a leader as the Teen Titans are coming together.
