@outside_85: I agree, i think Raven is more alike to Jean Grey. To be fair Magik also tries control her dark side as well helps others control their own dark sides.
She doesn't seem to be very good at it, plus it just seems she uses her upbrining as an excuse quite often when doing something that was considered out of line. (Don't know if it's accurate or not, but the recent issue where she took Kitty to Monster Island springs to mind.)
@black_wreath: At first I was happy she was not in the JLD but if the writes actually defined her powers and their extent I think he could be useful to them (especially when it comes to Trigon or other interdimensional demons)
Honestly, I wished Peter Milligan had used Raven instead of Zatanna when he launched JLD. Since his Zatanna was just coming out of somekind of trauma and everyone else had something going on as well. Plus there isn't that much of a difference when it comes to power between Zee and Madam Xanadu, plus we would have gotten the bonus of seeing Raven somewhere other than on the Teen Titans, same way we saw Cyborg on the JL and Martian Manhunter on Stormwatch. (And if we were lucky, we might get her another enemy or two instead of only having her own dad)
I wish Raven had to work with Phantom stranger again since the never mention her relationship with him after he gave her to Trigon.
Still hoping for a resolution there, especially now since the Stranger has had a notable shift in his priorities.
The Titans of Tomorrow were just called The Titans. I always got the feeling the JL never approved of Raven, they didn't exactly get off on the right foot when Zatanna told her to beat it because she was demonic (thereby confirming she's a total racist).
BB on the other hand, I felt just wasn't taken seriously by them.
Actually I am pretty sure Raven's issues with the League were resolved off-panel during the W/P days, Zatanna is seen atleast once asking her how it's going in one of those huge group shots. And in the much later Superman/Batman story, Superman appeared to know the in and out's of Raven's condition when he was trapped by Demon Raven in a dream.
The only one who's still 'against' her is Batman, which I consider to be a bit of a plus because it just means he doesn't have her 100% nailed.
