Titans Season 2: 6 Ups & 3 Downs From Aqualad

2. The Focus On Donna

Warner Bros.Of all the Titans in the show, it's safe to say that Donna Troy is the one we still know the least about. The lasso-wielding Wonder Girl made her debut in the back half of the first season with her own self-titled episode, but she never really got the in-depth character study that the likes of Dick, Dawn and Hank received.

However, the illusive hero got some much-needed focus this week, as her obvious attraction to Garth/Aqualad paved the way for some revelations about her backstory - as we discovered that she had made a deal with an apparent mentor in Jillian that allowed her to stick around for a year as part of the Titans before returning to Themyscira.

The whole thing allowed us to see a different side to Donna - one that Conor Leslie brought to life extremely well - as she was a lot more vulnerable than ever before. It was a compelling narrative that made it a lot easier to invest in her as a character and has set the stage for a more intriguing storyline in the next flashback episode - whenever that may be.

Can Deathstroke match the mighty Wonder Girl?
