An amazing new cosplay is highlighting just how unique the hero Starfire is in her place within the Teen Titans. One talented artist brings Princess Koriand'r to life in a way that just has to be seen.
When the young heroes of the DC Universe reassembled for their New Teen Titans era, one of the most notable additions to the team was Starfire. Hailing from the planet Tamaran, Koriand'r came to Earth as a result of the bitter feud with her sister over their planet's throne. After escaping and crossing paths with Dick Grayson, she became a central member of the Teen Titans. Endowed with solar-based energy abilities, Koriand'r has long been one of the team's biggest powerhouses. But more than just her powers, Starfire has grown into a strong leader of the Teen Titans, even becoming a leader in Teen Titans academy, helping mold the next generation of heroes.
