Nightwing (Brenton Thwaites) looks like he’ll have his hands full.
Among the storylines we got a glimpse of were the introduction of Lex Luthor who is looking to connect with his son Conner aka Superboy, Tim Drake opening up about his sexuality and the name drop of his comic book boyfriend Bernard, Gar gets a costume, and the big bad this season is none other than Brother Blood.

In the teaser clip which was revealed during New York Comic Con, Jay Lycurgo’s Tim Drake asks Conner/Superboy, played by Joshua Orpin, to take a picture holding his new staff. When asked by the other Titans who the photos are for, Drake says he wants to send a photo to “Bernard, that Star Labs dude.”

Bernard is Tim Drake’s current boyfriend in DC Comics’ Tim Drake: Robin series.
Tim Drake’s bisexuality was confirmed in the comics in August 2021 with the release of Batman: Urban Legends #6, which saw the character agree to go out on a date with Bernard Dowd. Lycurgo has previously expressed interest in exploring this aspect of Robin’s identity in Titans.
Lycurgo said in September 2021:
“From the bottom of my heart, it is incredible to see someone as iconic as Robin to be bisexual. It’s not done a lot, but it just shows that things are changing. I’m all for it, and it’s just nice that apart from having a biracial Robin, he’s also someone that is comfortable with his sexuality. I love that fans now have someone like that to look up to.”
Joseph Morgan will play Brother Blood and actor Titus Welliver will play Lex Luthor.

The bloody ritual and a chant depicted uses the words “Azarath, Metrion, and Zenthos.”
These words have been used by Raven in the past to summon her dark powers and abilities, and Azarath itself is a parallel world and her birthplace.
