Swamp Thing. Starring Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson, season 1 followed the character as he attempted to solve the mystery surrounding Rachel Roth (aka. Raven) and forge his own identity outside of being Batman's sidekick, Robin.
Across the initial 11-episode run, Titans featured numerous oblique references and Jason Todd critically injured and Commissioner Gordon killed, the nightmarish iteration of Batman had officially snapped and crossed the line into outright murderous vengeance. Eager to track him down and halt his rampage, Dick visited iconic locations like The Batcave and Arkham Asylum. He also encountered such notable figures as Two-Face and The Joker - though, like Batman himself throughout the episode, they remained mostly faceless entities only indirectly glimpsed.
Things turned somewhat of a corner in Game of Thrones' Iain Glen cast in the role. The official addition led, inevitably, to more Bat-related references, like Alfred, the Bat-Computer, and the Justice League. One exchange, however, referenced the latter superhero team (and such baiting) in a much more tongue-in-cheek fashion. As the first episode neared its conclusion, many of the heroes went their separate ways. Opting to venture onward with Dick, Jason, and Rachel, Gar (aka Beast Boy) enquired whether they would actually get to meet Batman this time. "Uh, no," Dick replied. "Superman." A surprised Gar immediately responded by asking, "Seriously?" Unfortunately for him, Dick merely quipped with a chuckle: "No! Get in the car."
Having lived with Arrowverse Superman used only sporadically.
Equally, the writers of the show, after all, are keen to keep the focus on the younger former sidekicks. In that regard, fans will have more to look forward in coming episodes - with an improved second season that they have done so in a successfully humorous and knowing fashion.
Titans season 2 continues with episode 2, "Rose", September 13 on DC Universe.
