Titans vs. Trigon
In Titans #15, from DC Comics (released in 2024), Raven and the Titans face a massive challenge. Not just one villain, but Trigon (Raven's father) and her evil twin, Dark-Winged Queen. The stakes were huge; the writers made both villains into what was described as an “extinction level” threats! This was such an incredible undertaking and they even needed reinforcements, bringing in one of the mightiest heroes: Superman!
However, Trigon effortlessly knocks out Superman in a single move! It's pretty shocking for everyone as this showcases just how powerful Trigon really is. Even the Man of Steel wasn't able to really face his power!
Raven's Triumph
The series brought in a shocking but incredible twist to this incredible DC Comics storyline! Beast Boy plays a super crucial part here. What happened was an incredible mediation that resulted in a fusion of both Ravens to create one, complete Raven! Despite having this power up! Even Raven couldn't handle the power of Trigon on her own.
She showed how determined the Titans are! She gave everyone a creative solution using some crazy strategies to gain some extra, amazing power! She created a special crown that linked every other Titan to her! By focusing her abilities through this device! She amplified her powers making the battle even bigger.
With the use of this special weapon she's finally able to bring down Trigon!
A Permanent End?
Even though they won against the incredibly evil Trigon, this moment isn't what everyone may be expecting. Even as Raven herself delivered that powerful finishing move!
- It turns out demons, don't die.

For anyone expecting some definitive final moment. It's interesting.
