Más y Menos are superheroes appearing in media published by DC Comics. They originated in the Teen Titans animated series, voiced by Freddy Rodriguez, before being incorporated into the main comics continuity.[1]

Fictional character biography

[edit]

Teen Titans (TV series 2003-2006 and tie-in comics)

[edit]

Más y Menos are a pair of Spanish-speaking twins from Guatemala who can move at superhuman speeds, but only when they are in contact with each other, possess a mental link, and are also known for their battle cry "¡Más o Menos, sí podemos!" which translates as, "More or Less, yes we can!". First appearing in the Teen Titans episode "Titans East" as founding members of the titular team, they establish a base in Steel City with help from Cyborg so they can locate Brother Blood. However, Blood attacks and brainwashes Titans East before forcing them to attack Cyborg. The original Teen Titans arrive to help and free Titans East from Blood's control while Cyborg defeats Blood himself.

In the episode "Calling All Titans", Más y Menos battle Johnny Rancid and Cinderblock, but are separated when Menos is captured. An escaping Más seeks out Beast Boy for help and attempts to locate Menos, but their mental link is severed when the Brotherhood of Evil flash-freeze Menos. In "Titans Together", Más and Beast Boy join forces with Pantha, Herald, and Jericho to rescue the other Titans and defeat the Brotherhood.

Mainstream DC comics

[edit]

Más and Menos are later introduced into the main comics continuity.[2] They are depicted as former members of the Teen Titans who joined and left the group following the events of Infinite Crisis.[3] In the limited series Speed Force, the two are forced to become enforcers for the villainous alliance Symphonee.[4]

Powers and abilities

[edit]

Más y Menos are metahumans who can move at superhuman speeds while touching and possess a mental link that allows them to locate each other. In Teen Titans Go!, the two build up energy while not using their powers and must periodically release it.
