As much as Cyborg is reduced to the "token black hero" of the Titans and DC as a whole, I have to admit, especially reading these opening stories up to Titans Hunt, I think that the character is severely underrated and genuinely has the strongest themes to play with out of all the core six. I feel if you're gonna write Cyborg, you should be reading a lot of Cyberpunk, sci-fi and science articles concerning how tech can change perceptions of the self and reality etc.
Likewise, Cyborg genuinely has such a strong origin story thematically. While the turning into a metallic hero is the end goal, it ultimately serves as the cruel punchline to his entire life. This was a guy who since his first day of life never had any control of it and that subtext just became text when he couldn't even die, his dad stripping away Vic's humanity in an attempt to save him.
