Yes and terra was the only one that I can remember.
When slade was working for Ravens dad there was no relationship that I can think of.
Unless it was in the comics and I missed it.

Well that's what I meant by relationship. He was trying to capture Raven to deliver to Trigon. He made Terra his apprentice.

Yeah but the "awkward" relationship that I thought you were referring to was between terra and death stroke...and that happened in the comics(they didn't really touch the creepy shit in the show iirc).

Ben Affleck Steps Down as Director for New BATMAN Movie
Ben Affleck has decided to step down as director of The Batman and remain on as a producer and star of the project.
Affleck is still on board to play the superhero, but sources close to the talent said Affleck and Warner Bros., after discussing how to best make the film possible, came to the decision together.
“There are certain characters who hold a special place in the hearts of millions,” Affleck said in a statement. “Performing this role demands focus, passion and the very best performance I can give. It has become clear that I cannot do both jobs to the level they require. Together with the studio, I have decided to find a partner in a director who will collaborate with me on this massive film. I am still in this, and we are making it, but we are currently looking for a director. I remain extremely committed to this project, and look forward to bringing this to life for fans around the world.”
Affleck and Warner Bros. will now begin searching for a new director. Sources say there is a shortlist and that War for the Planet of the Apes helmer Matt Reeves is among those on the list.
“Warner Bros. fully supports Ben Affleck’s decision and remains committed to working with him to bring a standalone Batman picture to life,” the studio said a statement.
Affleck has completed work as the Caped Crusader in Justice League, which opens Nov. 17, and he was preparing to go into prep on the solo Batman movie this summer. Affleck co-wrote the script with Geoff Johns.
There had been rumblings that Affleck was considering not directing the film during the past month, but in recent weeks sources say the multi-hyphenate came to the decision it was best to let the directing job go and focus on playing the part.
Rumors of Affleck departing the director’s chair have swirled for a couple of months now, when he let on that the project was having script issues during press for Live by Night, the gangster movie he directed for Warners. The issues first came to light when author Bret Easton Ellis mentioned them during a November podcast. Affleck and execs have been unhappy regarding the script for weeks, according to sources.
One insider from THR says that Live by Night's poor performance caused Affleck to rethink his approach to his projects after that film bombed recently, having taken in just $18.9 million globally to date.

AQUAMAN Finds Its Black Manta Villain With Yahya Abdul-Mateen II
Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, who starred in Netflix’s Baz Luhrmann show The Get Down, is in early talks to put on his wetsuit for Warner Bros. Aquaman movie.
The actor has nabbed the part of Black Manta, one of the DC Comics villains. Director James Wan and the studio have been meeting with numerous actors for the part for the past two weeks, settling on Abdul-Mateen over the weekend. The official offer went out yesterday and the parties are now in talks.
If a deal makes, Abdul-Mateen will suit up as Manta, who first appeared in a DC comic in 1967 and stood out due to his unique battle-costume, trident, and deadly schemes.
Aquaman is a massive undertaking for the studio and the next DC movie to be going before cameras. An April start in Australia is being planned.
Jason Momoa is starring as the half human, half Atlantean who is king of the underwater seas. Amber Heard is on board as Mera, his royal love interest and Willem Defoe is playing Aquaman’s advisor, scientist Dr. Vulko. Patrick Wilson, who starred in Wan’s The Conjuring movies, reteams with the filmmaker to Orm, a villain who happens to be Aquaman’s half-brother.
Abdul-Mateen was a finalist for the role of Lando Calrissian in the Han Solo Star Wars spin-off movie thanks to the acclaim he received for his work on Get Down. Since then, he has booked roles in high-profile movies such Baywatch, the Dwayne Johnson-Zac Efron action comedy that opens this summer, and The Greatest Showman, Hugh Jackman’s musical take circus founder P.T. Barnum.
