Who are the most likely candidates to be Beast Boy’s wife?
If Beast Boy were to get married in the mainstream comics, here are some of the most likely candidates to become his wife:
Raven
Raven is probably the most popular choice among fans to become Beast Boy’s wife. They have a long history together on the Teen Titans, understand each other’s powers, and have had an unrequited romantic chemistry for years. Raven’s empathic abilities complement Beast Boy’s animal morphing and could allow them to have a deep connection. While opposites in many ways, their personalities and powers balance each other out nicely. The mystique and drama around their relationship has leads many fans to root for them ending up together.
Terra
Terra was Beast Boy’s first major crush and relationship during his early Teen Titans years. As a fellow hero who could control earthly elements, she also complemented Beast Boy’s shape-shifting abilities. Even though their relationship ended tragically, Terra’s eventual return from the dead in the comics re-opened the possibility. Her troubled past also gives their romance a classic star-crossed lovers vibe. There is unfinished business between them that could culminate in marriage down the road.
Miss Martian
As a fellow shape-shifter from Mars, Miss Martian has a natural connection and understanding of Beast Boy’s powers that few other heroines can share. Their flirtation when they briefly served on the Teen Titans together showed their compatibility. Both are funny, upbeat people who seem to bring out the best in each other. And as aliens living on Earth, they can bond over feeling like outsiders. If Miss Martian ever returns for an extended stay on Earth, she and Beast Boy could rekindle their relationship and end up together long-term.
