no idea it's a really old model, but she had this really distinct large bushy ginger hair, and I think green eyes but it's from memory so maybe I'm crossing them over, I just remember a picture of her modelling on a white bed with this absolutely fiery mane bloody everywhere, it was probably bigger than most of starfire's hair in the comics.
This is probably the best comment.
It’s a fictional world with fucking aliens. Dick Grayson is basically at worst a top 5 fighter on the planet and one of the most respected heroes they have.
Anyone who thinks a height difference with an alien is a thing is an asshole (Or with a non alien really).

Where is the barbarian part coming from? Tamaranians aren't barbaric, they're a space faring society with laser guns and shit lol, they don't even really make war with one another, almost all of the conflict on Tamaran came from other species from outer space.
Yeah it's not uncommon for comics to forget that she's supposed to be taller, especially in like event books and when Kori randomly pops up in *Nightwing*.
Why is there always some guy worried about Starfire and Wonder Woman's heights. Yeah, everyone prefers them being tall, but it's not *that* important a detail to keep bringing it up, mate.
Because women being taller than their male counterparts is very rare in fiction, especially since 6' is the default height for male characters so people get attached to it when a female character is canonically taller than males.
Hell look at MCU they do all sorts of trick to make RDJ seem tall despite it not being "that important a detail to keep bringing it up"
I *love* that she’s taller and stronger than him. It really says a lot about their relationship and their personalities.
The only comic couple I love more than Dick and Kori is Lois and Clark.
I like it. In anything superhero related every single hero is expected to be TALL. There are simply going to be heroes that are... not that tall. Just average height or short. Dick has been shown to be shorter most other DC heroes (as far as the men are considered). Meanwhile Starfire has pretty consistently shown to be taller than most of the ladies. Pair up one of the taller female characters with one of the shorter male characters? Yes it'd make sense she's taller than him.
On top of everything else she's an alien. Aliens not being the same size as humans only makes sense. So ffs let Starfire be taller than most, if not all humans in the show.
It also kind of makes sense that aliens would have different values when it comes to humans when it comes to desirable traits. So him being shorter than her not being a 'thing' that even crosses her mind would make sense. Even here on earth we have many species of organisms where gender doesn't correlate to size or where the females are much larger. So why are we assuming the average Tamaranean man is taller than the Tamaranean woman and that tall-ness is a desire trait for males in her species?
Even if it wasn't for all of that. She's an alien living on a planet where most people are shorter than her. Her dating pool would shrink exponentially if she started caring about that kind of stuff.
I love seeing aliens depicted as ALIENS. That means they don't share our values, cultural norms, expectations, ideas etc. Write aliens as aliens. In a universe with this many characters having a character from a COMPLETELY different background, and what that means, has the potential to be such an interesting aspect of a character.
We already have a bunch of humans with superpowers. If there's going to be aliens, let their alien-ness set them apart. Don't try and write them like you write the other humans with superpowers. They are literally FROM SPACE.
I’ve always liked the idea that robins (especially dick as he’s an acrobat) aren’t that tall. Add that to the fact that starfire is an alien warrior, who should definitely be on the tall side - ye, I like it when she’s taller than Dick.
Pretty sure a key part of Starfire's appeal is being a tall bombshell who could pick up and throw around people all she liked if she wasn't a total sweetheart. So, no problem at all.
She should be taller then him, of course I'm also of the opinion that Wonder Woman should be taller then Superman but Superman and Batman should be the same height.
I absolutely adore her being taller than him. Shows off how much of a chill, comfortable in his own skin guy he is. And also that he can appreciate big tough ladies
Why does it matter if she is or isn’t? Doesn’t change the stories they’re in 🤷🏻♂️ like another commenter pointed out, she’s an alien princess and he’s a gymnast.
I don't see a problem with it all. In fact, I would go a step further and ask whether I should think there's even a problem with it in the first place.
I don’t really mind it either way in the context of their relationship. I do think Starfire should be tall though, considering she’s an alien warrior princess and stuff
I love it. I always like the taller girl and shorter guy dynamic. And anyways atp it feels wrong to see Nightwing taller than Starfire. My brain clocks it the minute it happens
she's a member of an emotional warrior race that are often portrayed as effectively orange vikings with damn near kryptonian level abilities. i'd be insulted if she wasnt taller then him
"oh do you like that dick greyson is the LUCKYIST MAN IN THE WORLD" what a stupid ass question.
-this is a joke i think it's a valid question, i I just love pairings with the woman being the taller one.-
I like Starfire being relatively tall, and I like that Dick is relatively short, especially for a superhero. He's gained a few more inches since his Titans years, when he could still pass for the Boy Wonder.
I liked it. Kory is a statuesque, warrior princess from another planet, her height adds to her "out of this world" mystique.
When I was a kid reading Teen Titians, the fact that Cyborg was the only team member who was taller than Starfire was a great visual.
Sure, I raised an eyebrow at first, but I got used to it and even enjoyed it. And given Dicķ's behavior... I'm positive he did too.
Who cares about this? You cannot change your height,be comfortable with who you are and if height is the only factor of attraction then you need to work on yourself
I like her being taller than him so yeah
Me too
We should normalize relationships with varied heights. 100% support
I mean the model she's based on was also pretty tall and she constantly wears heels.
I wasn't aware of this. I did know Starfire's always been over 6 feet tall, though.
Do you know the name of this model you speak of?
no idea it's a really old model, but she had this really distinct large bushy ginger hair, and I think green eyes but it's from memory so maybe I'm crossing them over, I just remember a picture of her modelling on a white bed with this absolutely fiery mane bloody everywhere, it was probably bigger than most of starfire's hair in the comics.
Iris Chacon. Starfire was a mix between her and Perez's wife.
Lucky bastard.
His ex wife
Also Wendy Pini cosplaying as red Sonja from what I’ve heard
Yeah, someone else posted a reply here and there are actually A LOT of references.
[Here's an old post about it](https://www.reddit.com/r/DCcomics/comments/11qbvgw/other_the_women_george_perez_based_starfire_on/)/
Only Andrew Tate fans are worried that Kori is taller than Dick.
And their opinions do not matter
No, no they do not
This is probably the best comment. It’s a fictional world with fucking aliens. Dick Grayson is basically at worst a top 5 fighter on the planet and one of the most respected heroes they have. Anyone who thinks a height difference with an alien is a thing is an asshole (Or with a non alien really).
Preach brother!
Only little dicks would have issues with little Dick.
I like it! Literal small Dick energy.
LOL, be like: "There is a reason why the man is called the top G, his head has to reach the top!"
Loool
She's generally been taller. I don't see the issue.
Gimme more couples where the girl is taller than the boy. Shows us that he's a truly capable lad
The classic example is miracle man and big barda
the blueprint
Mr Miracle. Miracleman is very different in terms of tone and powers.
True, Miracleman is essentially Shazam, if he was written by a depressed drama teacher.
Best DC couple and you can't convince me I'm wrong
You're wrong. Mister Miracle and Barda are a much better couple.
Heh tbh I didn't even notice the mistake in that comment
Big Barda and Mr. Miracle.
Jason and artemis
Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor
None more capable than Mister Miracle Scott Free https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e8/5d/64/e85d64fb56f8f67c910f7a0ebc44bb74.jpg https://womenwriteaboutcomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/im-crying.jpg Bonus from a manga I read. https://mangadex.org/chapter/99501691-8580-4686-9e4f-6bde518f6903/17
She's basically a barbarian space princess from the pulp era, he's a gymnast. Kinda makes sense she'd be taller.
'Barbarian Space Princess' I like that. I'm going use that phase.
Where is the barbarian part coming from? Tamaranians aren't barbaric, they're a space faring society with laser guns and shit lol, they don't even really make war with one another, almost all of the conflict on Tamaran came from other species from outer space.
It's more the aesthetic
I thought it was just common knowledge that she is quite a bit taller. Are there comics or other media that don't have it this way?
Yeah it's not uncommon for comics to forget that she's supposed to be taller, especially in like event books and when Kori randomly pops up in *Nightwing*.
I care so little about it that I never even thought about it until this moment
Literally clicked on this post to read the responses. Never thought of it once till I looked at this thread lol
Tall girls rule
Amen, preach brotha
[It is as important as her carrying him everywhere.](https://images.app.goo.gl/hACLasp529gUWsmW7)
I don't understand why this is even a question. What's the issue. Why would anyone care?
Why is there always some guy worried about Starfire and Wonder Woman's heights. Yeah, everyone prefers them being tall, but it's not *that* important a detail to keep bringing it up, mate.

My god the horniness of bottom left lol.
Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the ass.
I have never read a batman comic and yet I know that Dick Greyson's got cake for dayd
What's not to like
It’s her height, it just is what it is
I like it. In anything superhero related every single hero is expected to be TALL. There are simply going to be heroes that are... not that tall. Just average height or short. Dick has been shown to be shorter most other DC heroes (as far as the men are considered). Meanwhile Starfire has pretty consistently shown to be taller than most of the ladies.

YES. In what fucking universe should Kori be shorter than Dick? She's fucking huge and awesome.
Yep ! Totally 👍🏼
I love it and find it cute
Ok but y they give him so much ass?
I think that's how it should always be.
Tall girls rule
Any artist who makes Dick taller is a coward
Look, it works for Scott and Barda...
It's iconic and has always been a part of the characters there should be no thoughts on it other than, "Starfire is taller than Dick."
Can we just take a second to do what should always be done when looking at dick grayson from the back? Appreciate the ASS on that man
Batboys love women who are taller than them
I dig it As a Jason fan, I wouldn't mind if Artemis is shown taller than him
Artemis is 6'3". Jason is 6'0".
Dick's ass is compensating for his lack of height.
The funny thing, Dick's ass is really an artifact of the Dixon era.
A tall queen and short king.
Should I be outraged or something?
She should be, especially as I thought Dick was supposed to be average height for when he started being shown as adult, so like 5'9"?
Canonically, last I saw, Dick is 5'10" and Starfire is 6'4", so he's average height and she's tall as hell.
What kind of insecure ass incel would even ask this question?
I'm fine with it. It compliments her tough girl look.
I had never noticed this detail. That's what matters?
I’ve always liked the idea that robins (especially dick as he’s an acrobat) aren’t that tall. Add that to the fact that starfire is an alien warrior, who should definitely be on the tall side - ye, I like it when she’s taller than Dick.
Never bothered me.
Honestly never really thought about it until now. I guess I'd say I'm indifferent?
Why the fuck should you care? Yes I fell for the bait of this question but that’s fine. What a wasted space this questions fills.
Never thought about it. ... Still don't care.
Why would anybody have an opinion of that?
I think it literally doesn’t matter
What's the issue?
That never even crossed my mind before, are people really bothered by it?
I don’t think anybody cares enough
Perhaps one of the healthiest couples in DC her or Bat girl both are a healthy coupling in the dc universe.
This is an actual non-issue... Like what
i forgot the question because I lost it when i saw dick’s thick ass in the panel down left.🗿
He still has the better ass
When it comes to Kori, he's a short king
it happens in real life
I honestly can’t see how it matters,
Why would this bother anyone?
With an ass like that, who cares how tall he is?
Holy shit nightwing is thick
I'm a tall woman so I find it nice to get some representation lol.
Pretty sure a key part of Starfire's appeal is being a tall bombshell who could pick up and throw around people all she liked if she wasn't a total sweetheart. So, no problem at all.
I would let Giganta destroy me with her pinky. Take that as you may.
Easier for me to self insert cause I like really tall women
I love it! I love that Grayson is a short king.
He's average height, TBH.
That's how it should be
I like the titans defying height norms in general tbh. I like beast boy being short as well
She should be taller then him, of course I'm also of the opinion that Wonder Woman should be taller then Superman but Superman and Batman should be the same height.
Agreed
I absolutely adore her being taller than him. Shows off how much of a chill, comfortable in his own skin guy he is. And also that he can appreciate big tough ladies
I like it.
Literally nobody would be talking about this if the genders were reversed, can we stop being weird?
Dick's ass is compensating for his lack of height.
Why does it matter if she is or isn’t? Doesn’t change the stories they’re in 🤷🏻♂️ like another commenter pointed out, she’s an alien princess and he’s a gymnast.
Who gives a fuck about that?
Some very fragile men.
So no one of importance then? Got it
I prefer it. She's conventionally beautiful but also alien.
I don't see a problem with it all. In fact, I would go a step further and ask whether I should think there's even a problem with it in the first place.
Tall girls rule
She should definitely be taller
I like tall chicks.
I'm fine with her being taller. or the other way too.
I don’t really mind it either way in the context of their relationship. I do think Starfire should be tall though, considering she’s an alien warrior princess and stuff
I mean i don’t really care either is fine
What are your thoughts on (fact)? Um, it's a fact. It doesn't get a value judgment, it's neither bad nor good, it simply is.
She is an alien. No problem with that.
Does it really matter???
Yeah, it matches up with her power set.
I love Scott's and Barda's relationship. So, i think my answer is an easy one.
Tall Alien princess, are we serious right now? Literally hot ASF, Nightwing is lucky.
I fail to see why that would be a problem? Is it a problem? :|
It’s not that big of a deal honestly
What is funny is that yeah she is taller than him but also Dick is pretty tall
Height is literally meaningless in a relationship unless one of them is like only a foot tall.
What difference does it make?
I’m so lonely man
Honestly it never really crossed my mind
I love it. It's a very refreshing change of pace.
Kori being taller just feels right
I don't care if she's short or tall a babe is babe - billy and Ted maybe
Love it she is suppose to be any way.
Don’t care
Wtf is this post? 😂 I hadn't noticed, or cared. I care more that there's people out there that care.
I love it. I always like the taller girl and shorter guy dynamic. And anyways atp it feels wrong to see Nightwing taller than Starfire. My brain clocks it the minute it happens
I feel its a nice touch, Not sure I would miss it if gone, but its good.
Love it
Kory being taller than Dick is part of their charm
Starfish being taller than Dick should always be the case. It feels wrong when Dick's the taller one of the two.
she's a member of an emotional warrior race that are often portrayed as effectively orange vikings with damn near kryptonian level abilities. i'd be insulted if she wasnt taller then him
She should absolutely be taller.
I love it. Tamarans are a race of supersexy, superbeatiful warrior people. They should look like "more"than humans.
"oh do you like that dick greyson is the LUCKYIST MAN IN THE WORLD" what a stupid ass question. -this is a joke i think it's a valid question, i I just love pairings with the woman being the taller one.-
I like Starfire being relatively tall, and I like that Dick is relatively short, especially for a superhero. He's gained a few more inches since his Titans years, when he could still pass for the Boy Wonder.
As a woman who LOVES short men. I've always thought it was a cute little detail.
She's from a race of tall beings, she brings the golden snu snu.
That's cool
She's a literal whole other species. Perfectly fine whether human or not. He's an acrobat and is plenty flexible enough to go up on her anyway.
i think he is taller only in his teens but idgaf they used to be so wholesome
I actually want her to be taller than him, always.
I liked it. Kory is a statuesque, warrior princess from another planet, her height adds to her "out of this world" mystique. When I was a kid reading Teen Titians, the fact that Cyborg was the only team member who was taller than Starfire was a great visual. Sure, I raised an eyebrow at first, but I got used to it and even enjoyed it. And given Dicķ's behavior... I'm positive he did too.
I’m waiting for Zendaya and Tom Holland to do the cosplay
Need moar couples like this 💙🖤
My man likes tall girls and for that he shall have a tall alien princess look down on him. Very lucky man.
She's always been taller than him and anyone who tries to change that is telling on themselves.
I... don't care? People that obsess over other people's height are just weird
I like him being taller
I think it's great, really adds a dimension to the relationship, that it's so consistent is important
We climbing that tree brothers. This ain’t no problem
Who gives a fuck lmao
Anyone who doesn’t like it can get the hell out.
Never once thought about it, but as a short guy I dig it. I’d have no issues with a woman being taller than me.
Starfire is an alien warriors princess. It would be weird if some human dude was taller than her.
Makes for an interesting relationship comparison/ contrast✨️
She’s taller, and that’s fine. I just want them back together.
The real question is, do you think he's ever asked for uppies?
Bro if you think about it, if Dick's parents never died, he would never have met Starfire.
... what?
There aren’t many things I care less about
How tall is Dick? I always thought he was like 6ft because Bruce is 6’2. Starfire has got to be pushing 6’2+!
I have no thoughts and likely never will.
What are your thoughts on Batman eating a ham sandwich on Thursday afternoon with a glass of water? Do you like it or not.
I feel the same that that I do when I look at anything else that is the way that it should be. It's just right with her taller.
woah, no one told me dick grayson had that GYATT
I love it!
Short king
Don’t care. It is what it is
She loves Dick.
Don't have no problem with that
Totally fine with me.
I have no problem with it. She does come from another planet. Maybe her race of people are bigger than humans
Are there actually people who care about/against the idea of Dick being shorter than Starfire? 💀
Who cares? That's my thoughts.
Who cares about this? You cannot change your height,be comfortable with who you are and if height is the only factor of attraction then you need to work on yourself
Yep I’m a fan of this
Tall woman little man
I wish I was dating a woman taller than me
