I was going to post the Shortpacked! comic that is embedded in the article.
Don't tear me down over this, but wasn't the animated Starfire about 180 degrees away from how Starfire has pretty much always been portrayed in the comics? Wasn't she always depicted as a sexpot dating back to her debut? I have never read New Teen Titans but I seem to remember hearing a hew and cry from the old school Titans fans that animated Starfire was "wrong." So maybe I am way off base; if so I would love to hear more about her. Don't get me wrong: I LIKE animated Starfire. I like all of the animated Teen Titans -- the only incarnation of the team I have ever liked. And I would love to see THAT Starfire in the mainstream DCU. But is her being a sexpot really a "change" in the status quo for her?
