Fictional character biography

Origins

As a child, Garfield contracted a rare illness called Sakutia and was cured by a serum extracted from a green monkey. This serum had the unintended effect of turning his skin and hair green and gave him the ability to morph into any animal of his choice. The colors and appearance of these animals changed depending on the artist using the character at the time. Blood plasma is the liquid component of blood, in which the blood cells are suspended. ... Approximate worldwide distribution of monkeys. ...


Before becoming a Teen Titan or part of the Doom Patrol, Garfield was placed in custody of Nicholas Galtry, the attorney for his parents' estate. While the young Logan was in Africa, Galtry had embezzled funds from Gar's inheritance. When Gar was found, Galtry plotted to kill the boy and have all the wealth for himself.

Embezzlement is the fraudulent appropriation by a person to his own use of property or money entrusted to that persons care but owned by someone else. ...


Originally and currently known as Beast Boy, he was adopted by Elasti-Girl and Mento, members of the Doom Patrol. He later joined the West Coast team of the Teen Titans (known as Titans West), and was part of the New Teen Titans assembled by Raven. It was at this time that he took the name Changeling. He remained with various incarnations of the team, forming a close friendship with Cyborg. Elasti-Girl is a superhero of the DC Comics universe and a member of the Doom Patrol. ...

He later began using the name Beast Boy again, under which he got his own miniseries Beast Boy.

Beast Boy's character is often used as comic relief. However, this is only a facade, he uses humor to hide a deep inner pain. Beast Boy has suffered many hardships in his life (both his real parents have died, and his foster mother, whom Garfield became very close to, died in battle along with virtually all of the other Doom Patrol members with whom he was part of the team and his foster father was driven mad by a helmet he used to fight enemies). During his time with The New Teen Titans, Gar fell in love with Terra, a young girl with geokinetic powers and fellow Teen Titans member, who turned out to be a spy working for Deathstroke or Slade. Despite all his hardships, Garfield is friendly and upbeat.

Teen Titans vol. 3, #34 (May 2006) shows us scenes from the year between the conclusion of Infinite Crisis and One Year Later, from the damaged Cyborg's POV. Garfield led the Teen Titans, before quitting the team following the break-up of himself and Raven. He then joined his original team, the Doom Patrol, citing that the team needed his help and that Robin could handle leadership.

Soon after Cyborg awoke, Beast Boy and the rest of the Doom Patrol helped the Titans fight off the Brotherhood of Evil, who had managed to clone Brain. The clone was a failure, and Mallah ended up tearing Brain's head off so that he could preserve his master's brain.


After returning, Beast Boy was infuriated to discover that the Chief had been manipulating them and trying to do the same to Kid Devil. Gar and his parents stood up to the Chief and made him step down as the Doom Patrol's leader. Gar stayed on his old team saying that they still needed him.

Personal life

Garfield Logan's life has been shaped by tragedy. His parents died in a boating accident when he was no more than 10 years old. To this day, he still believes he could have prevented this event. After he was saved from two kidnappers that tried to use his powers to help them in their crimes, he was left under the care of his despised guardian, Nicholas Galtry.


Galtry was unhappy that Garfield was alive and plotted to kill the boy in order to claim his inheritance. The various villains he hired to kill young Logan were impeded by the Doom Patrol. His hopes of gaining Garfield's money were finally dashed when Rita and Steve Dayton adopted Garfield. The Doom Patrol is an idiosyncratic DC Comics superhero team that has been through several incarnations. ... Elasti-Girl is a superhero of the DC Comics universe and a member of the Doom Patrol. ... Mento is a fictional superhero from the DC comics universe. ...


In his days with the Doom Patrol, Garfield held a romantic relationship with a girl from his high-school named Jillain Jackson. After he saved her from Galtry (who was using the alias "Arsenal"), the relationship dissolved. Beast Boy was the only survivor of the Doom Patrol, a loss which deeply affected him. Since then, they have all returned to life, but this began his habit of making jokes to cover up his fear that those he cares about will die.


Garfield felt insecure and inadequate as a Teen Titan. He hid his insecurity by constantly cracking jokes which even he described as "stale" and humorously flirting with the female members of the team. He even suggested that Raven reformed the Titans just to meet him (something none of the other Titans would ever believe). However, it is a mystery exactly why Raven chose to recruit Garfield into the New Teen Titans.

Raven is a fictional superhero in the DC Comics Universe, specifically the Teen Titans comics. ...


Logan developed a more serious interest in Tara Markov. He was heartbroken to discover that she was a traitor working for Deathstroke and hated the Teen Titans. Even after her death, he refused to believe for a long time that she was a traitor and blamed Deathstroke for corrupting and using her. However, Logan realized her true colors when it was revealed that she killed King Tawaba. Despite this, he blamed her betrayal on Deathstroke until he disclosed the real details of his relationship with her to him. This added to his fears of losing those he is close to. However, he and Deathstroke parted on peaceful terms after this, and strangely enough over the course of time (specifically during the Titans Hunt and Total Chaos story arcs), even developed a friendship between them. After Terra's betrayal and death, Jill returned to Garfield's life to ease his pain. Unfortunately, the relationship dissolved just as it did before. Jackson's fate remains unknown.

Upon returning to the Titans under Vic Stone's leadership, he began flirting with his female teammates again. His flirts became minimal, however, when Raven was revived and rejoined the team. He did, however, flirt with Raven occasionally. In Teen Titans vol. 3, #30, Raven kissed Beast Boy without explanation. It was revealed in the following issue that Raven kissed him because it was "just what she wanted to do". She had been developing feelings for him since her recent rebirth. Despite fan speculations that this affair was influenced by the Shipper fan community, writer Geoff Johns has gone on record to note that he had long been preparing these two slowly to have a relationship before the animated series even began. However, Robin revealed in Teen Titans #34 that the two have broken up, though no reason why was given, and both left the team as a result. Interviews with Geoff Johns indicated the relationship would be explored again during and after "OYL".

Powers and abilities

As a shape shifter, Beast Boy has the ability to morph into any animal that he has seen himself or has seen in an illustration (as is the case when he shapeshifts into an animal such as an extinct dinosaur). These transformations take only a second and Beast Boy has demonstrated that he is capable of rapidly changing his form with little or no effort expended. Orders & Suborders Saurischia Sauropodomorpha Theropoda Ornithischia Thyreophora Ornithopoda Marginocephalia Dinosaurs were vertebrate animals that dominated the terrestrial ecosystem for over 160 million years, first appearing approximately 230 million years ago. ...


His power enables him to completely alter his body mass, being able to take the shape of animals far larger and heavier than himself, such as an elephant, a hippopotamus, or a Tyrannosaurus Rex (though until recent stories, such larger forms would physically exhaust him), or smaller and lighter animals such as mice and insects. His power also enables him to radically alter his body structure and take forms of animals without limbs, like snakes, or those without skeletons like a jellyfish. While as an animal, he gains all the physical abilities and characteristics of said animal, such as great strength (a gorilla), speed (a cheetah), and durability (a turtle), and abilities such as flight (various birds), and aquatic breathing (various fish). He can even gain the specific poison produced by specific snakes. While in animal form, Beast Boy retains his human intellect, memories, and the ability to speak. No matter what form he takes, his skin, hair, and his eyes, will remain green, making most of his animal forms easy to distinguish from real animals of that species.

When Raven implanted Garfield with an evil seed of her father Trigon, he began to transform into more demon-like creatures. Eventually, he found himself more comfortable in these horrific shapes rather than as a human, and stayed shifted.

In the series, Beast Boy (nicknamed "BB", and others) plays the role of the light-hearted jokester of the group, though often the butt of many jokes himself (similar to his comics self). He wears a black and purple Doom Patrol uniform, complete with gray gloves and purple sneakers with seemingly velcro straps.[1] The costume also has a mask;[2] he discarded it after Cyborg told him it was goofy, and Raven pointed out that the mask would not hide his secret identity anyway, as since his skin is green, he does not really have one. Beast Boy also has pointy ears, which he finds to be an attractive quality of himself. His appearance is much younger than in the comics. The ears were adapted to the comics in Teen Titans vol. 3. He exhibits very feral habits as well, such as sitting with his feet on his chair and moving his ears up and down.

Beast Boy is a vegetarian, having transformed into most of the meat-producing animals.[4] He is also prone to causing much of the mischief around Titans Tower, such as the time he kept a large mutant moth larva hidden in his bedroom, whom he named Silkie. In "Can I Keep Him?," the larva devours much of the Tower while the team is on a mission fighting Johnny Rancid. While trying to hide him from the others, Beast Boy entrusts Silkie to Starfire to hide, but she ends up adopting the creature.

Like in the comics, Beast Boy also had a romantic relationship with a girl named Terra who had the ability to control earth and the elements in the earth. As in the comic book, Terra betrays the Teen Titans as an ally of Slade (Deathstroke). Ultimately, she receives redemption in helping the Titans defeat Slade; however, she is turned to stone in the process. In a departure from the comic book, Beast Boy retains strong feelings for Terra, as can be heard in "The End: Part 2" by "Evil Beast Boy" (an evil clone of BB created by Trigon, representing his evil side). In the final episode "Things Change", Beast Boy saw Terra, although it is unclear whether or not it was the real Terra, as he was the only Titan who saw her.

In the Season 3 episode "The Beast Within", Beast Boy gained a new "Super-Werewolf" form when he was doused with an experimental DNA compound. The Titans had assumed that he had used this form to attack Raven. However, it was in fact Adonis, who had been affected by the compound as well, who attacked her, and Beast Boy was protecting Raven from him. Beast Boy disliked this form and refrained from using it again until he and the other Titans were fighting off Slade's fire-soldier army in "The End: Part 1" when they had to use their most powerful abilities. He never used it after then, suggesting that even with the strength and abilities it gave him, he considered it a "last resort".

Season 5 of Teen Titans focuses on Beast Boy a great deal, as it deals with his history as a member of the animated series' incarnation of the Doom Patrol. In the second episode of the fifth season, Beast Boy becomes the first male Titan in the series to be explicitly referred to by his real name (Garfield). In "Titans Together", Beast Boy shows a remarkable amount of leadership skills and leads Herald, Jericho, Pantha, and Más on an assault on the Brotherhood of Evil. He remains leader even after Cyborg, Starfire, Raven, and several other Titans join the fight. Beast Boy only stands down from leadership when Robin is thawed; thus fulfilling his dream (revealed in the episode "Go!") to be Robin's sidekick.

One part of Beast Boy's depiction in the animated series that has garnered attention is his effort to form a connection with his teammate, Raven, going so far as to make a decisive effort to get her to respond to his jokes. His comedic and innocent nature often plays off on Raven's more distant and harsh one, and certain episodes focus on building their friendship.[5] However, the producers have gone on record to say that this was not intended to be the basis for a romantic relationship—as some fans have hoped. The two would however be "rewarded" with a romantic interaction in 2005 in the official canon, presumbly a nod to fans who had fought for the pairing.


The two friends have a comical sub-plot during the movie Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo, where Raven would find almost every opportunity to slap Beast Boy hard across the screen, this also happened when he was swarmed by Japanease fangirls for how "well" he sang karaoke, Raven responding in jealousy.


Until "Homecoming", in which his former teammates make a guest appearance, Beast Boy was the only member of the Doom Patrol to appear on the show.


Beast Boy also has an obsession with owning a vehicle of his own, more specifically, a moped. In one episode, he acquires one and affectionately calls it the "B-Ped". Ironically, after using it to save the world from killer tofu, it falls to pieces. He often has fantasies of impressing girls on a moped, dressed in a stereotypical French style: black and white striped shirt, black trousers, and a beret.
