Since the inaugural issue of Tom Taylor’sTitans, DC’s premiere superhero team has maintained a healthy roster, with the current lineup consisting of eight core members:Nightwing, Donna Troy,Raven, Garth,Cyborg,Starfire,Beast Boy, andThe Flash. However, their team is about to lose a member, as a solicitation for an upcoming issue teases “a major death,” raising the pressing question: Who’s dying?
With most Titans deemed “safe” from the reaper’s embrace, Tempest and Raven emerge as the frontrunners for a dirt nap in issue #15.
A solicitation for Tom Taylor and Lucas Meyer’sTitans#15 is teasing, “A major death will shake the DCU.” Besides this single, ominous sentence, no other clues of who could depart the DCU are given, leaving fans in suspense until the issue’s release on June 07, 2025.
TITANS #15 (2024)
Variant Covers:
Stjepan Šejić, Mike McKone, Joe Prado, and José Luis García-López
A major death will shake the DCU. There is no stopping it. Dark destiny is coming, and countless worlds shake with fear. The Dark Winged Queen is rising. Stronger than the Titans. Stronger than Trigon and all his demonic children. Can the Titans save the world and their friend? Or will they be forced to choose?
While the wording is vague enough to encompass any DC character, it’s a safe bet that a Titan is meeting their demise.This article dives into who’s safe and which Titan is most likely getting offed in September’s issue.
The Titans' Dark Destiny Confirms Raven Rivals Darkseid as a Major Villain
There are tons of evil and twisted forces in the DC Universe, and while Raven is usually a hero, she can also rival Darkseid as a major villain.
Nightwing, Flash, Donna Troy, and Beast Boy Are Extremely Unlikely to Be Killed Off (So Who’s Dying?)
Based on the team’s current lineup, there are eight options of which hero could be facing their end inTitans#15. However, Nightwing, Donna Troy, and Flash can be taken off the table of possible options since they are likely safe from meeting their end due to some inarguable facts. First and foremost,Dick Grayson and Wally West both have their own ongoing runs, which means they will definitely be surviving the fatal issue #15. Similarly, Donna Troy plays a major role inTom King’s ongoingWonder Womanrun, so she is also' safe.'
Even though Beast Boy’s situation isn’t as clear-cut as Flash, Nightwing, and Donna Troy (who are safe due to ongoing series),it is still highly unlikely that Garfield will die considering he just recently ‘died.’Killing Beast Boy off after having just done so in theBeast Worldarc would lack impact and feel repetitive. Hence, it is unlikely that Garfield is the character teased to die in issue #15. Likewise, it is unlikely that Starfire and Cyborg would die, considering that either one of their deaths would feel random and have absolutely no lead-up.
Raven and Tempest Are Both the Most Likely to Die inTitans#15
With most Titans deemed “safe” from the reaper’s embrace,Tempest and Raven emerge as the frontrunners for a dirt nap in issue #15. Tempest’s recent struggles, particularly succumbing to a Necrostar spore beforeBeast World, could be seen as foreshadowing his demise. Furthermore, Garth has consistently felt like a background character, making him a more expendable option. However, Raven’s ongoing war with her evil counterpart,the Dark Winged Queen, pushes her to the top of the death watch list. Her demise would undoubtedly deal a major blow to the DCU, aligning perfectly with the ominousTitans#15 synopsis.
Titans #15will be released on June 02, 2025, from DC Comics!
