Whats her role in comics (No nude pics) nowadays?
And is she still with Dick?
Character » Starfire appears in 2155 issues.
She's screwing with Jason Todd and doesn't remember Dick. As well her interesting personality is gone. That's pretty much it, new DCU reboot was not kind to her.

Yeah heard a 7 year old girl complained about her
It's not just a seven year old. Everyone who ever liked the pre-reboot Starfire hates what she's become.

Honestly now when I hear about it, I am too. Read she just casually asked Roy Harper for sex.
Might be a dumb comparison but the Starfire from Teen Titans (the show) was a better character than the one now

Amongst other terrible bits of bad writings. She's basically a dual purpose sex/battle robot now :(

This actually isn't true. It seemed so in the earlier issues, but her character has been elaborated on much more. It was revealed, for example that she didn't actually have sex with Jason, and its been hinted that she remembers more than she says she does. Also, she's developed much more of a personality as RHATO has gone on. Really, its gotten better.

After how terrible and uninteresting the first issues of that series has been combined with my utter loathing of Jason Todd. I'll just say, meh.

Todd still a Villian or Anti-Hero?

He's supposed to be an anti-hero. But to me he's just an *ss
@Jnr6Lil: In my opinion, that little detail is one of the better things to come out of the reboot. I never bought Todd as a full on villain, but as an anti-hero, I like him. Again, that's just me.

Totally inaccurate. Sounds like somebody who never read a single issue of Red Hood and the Outlaws.
@Imagine_Man15: She had sex with him. DC told whoever was in charge of the writing duties (Lobdell?) to retcon that, and say she didn't. Came at him with that paddle in hand, about to spank him. We all know what happened.
Issue 6 goes into more detail about her relationship with jason (they are friends) she only had sex with roy.
@Crom-Cruach: That is absolutely not true.
@Jnr6Lil: She isnt with Dick but she has had a relationship with him in the past. She did not have sex with Jason, and she is currently in a kinda sorta relationship with Roy. She has MUCH more depth than people give her credit for and unfairly judged her solely based on her appearance in the first issue. The whole memory loss thing is also been shown to be complete BS and it seems like she has been lying about it for some unknown reason. Currently she is in space at the command of a battleship readying to fight a race that is threatening Tamaran.
Oh and on a sidenote to everyone mad at the whole memory loss thing I think at this point its been pretty much confirmed that she was lying about it the whole time. Not only is she actually shown remembering Dick and the psuedo Teen Titans, she had absolutley NO trouble remembering every single person on the ship she was previously captain of and stepped into the role of a Captain like it was yesterday

She was only with Todd at the start of the Outlaws. Sense then her and Roy Harper are a lot closer, and Todd is "trying" to date a civilian girl.

She didn't even sleep with Todd. She tried kissing him and he pushed her off since Star assimilates knowledge of a person through intimate contact like that. Hence why she slept with Roy in the beginning.

He always hates on Jason Todd any chance he gets.So it dosen't surprise me that he dosen't like the series.

Red.Hood.&.the.Outlaws.is.pretty.good,.and.Starfire.has.solid.bond.with.Roy.and.Jason..She's.not.a."sex.robot".at.all.
Actually,.Kori.and.Roy.are.leaning.toward.a.relationship..And.she's.imitating.amnesia.for.a.reason.
I.would.not.reccommend.getting.your.opinions.from.elsewhere,.the.internet.is.full.of.rabid.haters.of.the.new52.

But is that what they meant by screwing?

my guess is that whatever happened between her and Dick really hurt her so as to not get hurt anymore she's faking the memory thing to keep people at a distance
@Jnr6Lil: She's in the Outlaws with Red Hood and Arsenal now. She's kind of the powerhouse of their team, which is cool to me. She's not with Dick currently, but it was seen in a flashback that they have been together. It seems she's currently in a pseudo-relationship with Arsenal. It's weird, because I'm used to seeing her with Dick, but I'm glad they're taking that in another direction. She did seem a little cold/uninteresting/ditzy in the first issue, but since then her personality has improved.
I didn't mind her new characterization for a simple reason: it was set up for character development and/or regain of her memories. But yet again the fanbase was set on fire and moaned and bitched in chorus when she asked Roy for sex. They even got a young girl to complain about it. Ignoring for a moment that Kory was always sexually active in the comics to begin with its obvious that kid only watched the Teen Titans cartoon where Starfire looks far more cutesy than voluptuous in the comics. I empathize though its a shock for kids to see something you love turned to be far more adult that they can't understand.
@Twentyfive: she didnt have sex with jason. dan didio came up to him after the heat and said do you have a plan and lobdell said yes. the first 8 issues were already writtten when the first issue came out, so ya he knew what he was doing and people jumped the gun. she is an extremely troubled person who was imprisoned, tortured and raped as a little girl. her people look at sex in a different way. that was never in question. she is being unraveled and her personality is starting to show. only people who heard what happened or read the first issue would give this series this much flak.
hartoon: A cartoon you love.@Dernman said:
I never had a problem with any of her portrayals. I loved her in Teen Titans hartoon. I liked her sometimes in preflashpoint. I really like her now.I like the hartoon as well. :P.
I was shocked when i read the new teen tiatns in 2003? and she was barely wearing anything but i relized the market is completely different Red hood isn't for little kids and people who read comics should expect every single charcter to be hyper sexualized why Starfire was put under such scrutiny is beyond me.

So wait, she doesn't suffer from a goldfish type short term memory after all? That was one of the big things i HATED about her when I tried to start reading the new series. I didn't mind the costume since Kory's always been a free spirit, but she lacked the loving yet strong willed personality that made the original Kory so endearing instead of just a mindless fanservice character...Plus that whole "I don't remember any of my friends or have enough brain power to tell two human beings apart" aspect of her new nature really annoyed me...Like she was literally every fanboy's fantasy come true, a hot woman who only wants you for sex and forgets you later...That's just NOT who Kory's supposed to be as a person >_<
I mean, I COULD understand an alien having problems telling two humans apart if said alien came from a non-humanoid species, but since Tamaraneans are dead ringers for humans except for their orange skin and glowing eyes, her being unable to tell Jason & Roy apart made her seem rather dumb and/or shallow rather than make her seem alien.

No, she remembers quite a bit more than she let on at first, and its been shown in more recent issues that she isn't stupid either. Now, rather this was actually planned all along or if it was a quick change in response to fan-reaction can be debated. Either way, however, it's better now.
