Johns however gave his window-dressings a bit more room to breathe.
    Not really, Gar and Raven both got their own story arcs early on and Cyborg was a pretty major part of the run.

    Hence why I said the window dressings under Johns had more room. Right now, I dont know if Percy will get far enough to actually give them this, since when Damian is not the focus, thus far it's been Aqualad and now nuWally.

    Percy's preferences aside i think that having to deal with the fallout of the turn of events in Lazarus has impacted this title. Due to that story the seeds sowed in the TT 1st arc pretty much got dug up, Everyone is back to square one it's like that never happened.

    I don't understand why DC just won't let the original 3 grow beyond this team. I know TTGO! is popular maybe be that's why they're still stuck here but for characters who have been a around a while now and who have a base it's just bad business to do more with them.

    DC is very good at wasting potential and just pushing a select few.

    No, my point is that they weren't window dressing. They were important and heavily focused on members of the cast.
