Risk: Had his OTHER arm ripped off by Superman-Prime in 2007 during the Sinestro Corps war. Anyone seen him since?
Red Star: Lost both Baby Wildebeest and Pantha. How much coverage? One issue of Johns run in Titans, and a one-panel scene in BL: Titans.
Marvin: Mauled to death by Wonder Dog.
Wendy: Crippled, currently recuperating in the Batgirl series.
Jericho: Has gone crazy twice, and become sane twice.
Mas y Menos: Badly injured in Final Crisis #1. If not for the Director's Cut we all probably would've gone on thinking they were dead.
Tempest: Spent three years in limbo after he showed up in the Aquaman book, depowered and an albino. He finally comes back to speed for ONE issue of Titans, where we finally learn that both his ex-wife and his child have been dead since Infinite Crisis. He becomes King of Atlantis for about that same issue, and then he dies in Blackest Night.
Dolphin: See Tempest.
Ceridian: See Tempest.
Hawk III: Holly spent five years as Hawk and barely any characterization other than "Hawk". But hey, she lasted longer than the third Hawk & Dove team.
Arsenal: Cry for Justice happened. Among other things.
Lian Harper: Cry for Justice happened. Among other things.
Little Barda: Still in critical condition.
Son of Vulcan: Still in hospital.
Lagoon Boy: Still in hospital.
Anima: Cut in half by that douchebag Prometheus and her body dumped in the Ghost Zone.
Kid Devil: Two years spent building him up, then depowered and killed.
Kid Eternity: Pretty much no one cares what the hell happened to him, do they? I mean, you'd think they would've looked to see where he's been. Where is he? Being kept hostage by Calculator as he's forced to constantly resummon Marvin.
Power Boy: Shoved through a tree branch and badly burned.
Raven: Can't be played past the drama and is constantly breaking up with Beast Boy.
Lilith Clay: This one's an oldie. Got killed by a robot Superman, yet everyone spent more time mourning over Donna Troy then to bother to even give her a burial scene.
Riddler's Daughter: Hasn't been seen since Titans East by Johns and Beechen.
Pantha: Head punched off.
Baby Wildebeest: Hole blown through his chest.
Bushido: Cut in half.
Duela Dent: Killed to start Countdown, and her origin was finally cleared up posthumously.
Golden Eagle: Last seen being freed from being an alien warrior's sex toy.
Terra II: Punched straight through the chest by Black Adam.
Damage: Disfigured, and pretty much two or three years spent dealing with his aggression and trauma since, only to kill him in Blackest Night.
Mal Duncan: Badly traumatized in Infinite Crisis, lost use of vocal chords, supposedly a member of the Doom Patrol, hasn't been seen in what? Two years? Oh, and the dissolution of his marriage to Bumblebee.
Bumblebee: Shrunk to six inches and suffers from a heart condition which causes her to rely on that other douche the Chief for medication. Dissolution of marriage.

re: Mia, to be fair, she was revealed as having HIV waaay before she ever joined the Titans.
I know we are supposed to suspend disbelief because it's a comic and such, but honestly, with the Titans' track record for keeping kids safe, it makes no sense at all why the JSA aren't marching on over to San Francisco to either shut them down or give them some adult supervision. It's really sad that a book which was once home to DC's best character moments (IMO) is just third-rate gorn. And tasteless, considering that these are *teenagers.*
