So, one of the more surprising things to come out of the live-action Titans series that I've found myself really enjoying is the Hank/Dawn pairing. And not only that, but showcasing them as each others' "endgame" or "one true love." And after the most recent episode, well...damn.
Not gonna post any spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet, buuuuuuut I am now furious that they are not a couple in the comics. In fact, they have never been romantically involved with each other. And honestly, I'm kind of wondering why they haven't hooked up??
I mean, maybe it was too obvious, and then there was the whole, uh, Extant thing that sort of sent Hank down a spiral...but it would seem kind of a natural pairing. Right?
I know that SOME writers have flirted with the idea over the years, including one issue where they kissed while under the influence of some mystical god/lord of order or something. All while Hank had a girlfriend.
Also, IIRC, in Brightest Day, Hank seemed to be throwing out some legit jealousy vibes when Dawn and Deadman started getting close. But, the two have never actually gotten romantically involved, unless I missed something. And I think Titans has showed that it COULD be a potential avenue to explore.
So, what do you guys think? Do you agree with me and also think Hank and Dawn could be a super-romance that rivals the likes of Reed and Sue, Aquaman and Mera, Scott and Jean...and Wolverine? Or am I crazy and should these two absolutely not be a thing at all in the comics?
