Baby Wildebeest is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.
Baby Wildebeest was introduced in New Teen Titans vol. 2 #85 (April 1992), and was created by Marv Wolfman and Tom Grummett.
Baby Wildebeest was created by the Wildebeest Society and designed to house the tainted souls of Azarath. However, he is rescued by the Titans and recruited into their group.[1] Although the size of a human toddler, he had disproportionately powerful strength and later demonstrated the ability to grow in size. He additionally regards Pantha as a mother figure, and she grows to care for him despite not initially liking him.[2] [3]
After the New Titans disbanded, Pantha took Baby Wildebeest with her and moved to Solar City, Russia, with Red Star.
Baby Wildebeest would participate in the battle to save his old friend Cyborg, whose magnified power levels threatened the entire Earth. A series of misunderstandings led to the Titans' allies attacking the JLA. Baby Wildebeest was knocked out by Superman.[4]
During Infinite Crisis, Baby Wildbeest is killed by Superboy-Prime.[5] In Blackest Night, he is revived as a Black Lantern before being killed once more.[6]
Baby Wildebeest had incredible strength, stamina, and enhanced durability. When provoked, he became a twelve-foot powerhouse, strong enough to take blows from Superman himself.[7]
Elements of Baby Wildebeest are incorporated into Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go!s incarnation of Wildebeest.
