Brin may have had his li'l nibbles of the Lotus Fruit but only the 70s TITANS can claim a member who perfromed illicit sex acts for drugs! THATS disco-ey!

TEMPORAL TECHNICALITY! Whatever Roy did or didn't do, did it take place in a 70s comic? (If he 'fesses up to it now, it took place 10 or so years ago...which isn't the 70s!)

I'd hand the Blaxplotation award to Tyroc, I think.
Although Karen Beecher-- The Bumblebee-- has the corniest origin in superhero history.
She donned the guise of the Bumblebee in order to attack and whip the ass of her boyfriend Mal with the Titans present, proving to him that his "friends" The Titans didn't care a whit about him! Of course, The Titans stood up for their brotha, proving Karen to be some sort of nutty extremist!

It's not really fair to allow Cham, Shady and Brainy, since the Titans didn't dabble in alen worlds until the 80s revival. By the time Dawnstar came along, TTs was in Cancelled City, and as you stated, Val only counts depending on who the artist was.
