Risk (character)
Risk, whose real name is Cody Driscoll, is a DC Comics character from the Teen Titans series. He is a hybrid of a human and the alien H'San Natall, which gives him superhuman strength, durability, agility, and enhanced senses. His powers also heighten his adrenaline, making him prone to taking big risks.
Cody grows up in Cosmos, Colorado, living with his mother in a trailer. He’s smart but mischievous, pushing against authority. He and two others, Isaiah Crockett and Toni Monetti, are abducted by the H'San Natall and learn they’re sleeper agents. The trio decides to form a new Teen Titans. After some members depart, Risk goes back to Colorado when the team disbands.
Key story moments:
- Infinite Crisis: Superboy-Prime kills several Titans and rips off Risk’s right arm. Argent heals him with plasma energy.
- One Year Later: Risk becomes a petty criminal and joins Deathstroke’s version of Titans East. It’s noted he’s missing an arm and still stubborn about getting a cybernetic one.
