Titans TV Show: 10 DC Heroes Who Could Appear

10. Hawk And Dove

Like many comic book characters, Hawk and Dove have been given several big revamps over the years. However, three variations have been given the most attention and have remained the most prominent: Brothers Hank and Don Hall, sisters Dawn and Holly Granger, and the New 52 variation featuring Hank Hall and Dawn Granger. The basic premise of Hawk and Dove has always remained the same: the duo are always two young heroes with contrasting personalities and ideologies. Dove usually represents reason and nonviolence, while Hawk is more prone to having a temper and displaying forces of aggression. Despite their differences, they are able to complement each other and find a state of balance that makes them skilled crime fighters. Their powers themselves derive from the Lords of Chaos and Order, and are mystic in nature. Dove possesses something called "danger sense transformation," which means that whenever he or she speaks the word "dove" while in actual danger, they'll transform into their super-powered alter-ego for a short time or until the danger has passed. Dove also exhibits enhanced abilities including flight, agility, healing factor, and hyper-awareness. Hank, on the other hand, can use his/her "danger sense transformation" to become a super-human with the powers of super strength, unlimited stamina, enhanced speed, flight, agility, and durability. His violent nature is suppressed thanks to Dove, and without her he can be overcome with boundless anger. While their powers and abilities could easily use a bit of revamping for live-action, it's the dynamic between the two that would lend the most weight to a show like Titans. The conflict between them due to their differing ideologies makes for great character drama.
