As Ten Cents also hooted as Boomer was being lifted out of the water by Mighty Mo, when Boomer tried starting his engine, and when Ten Cents first tried towing Boomer into port, Sunshine theorizes that Ten Cents' hooter may somehow be causing the jinx. Ten Cents, however, thinks this is nonsense. In an attempt to prove he is right, Sunshine organizes a test - he finds Boomer with a marker buoy, and tells Ten Cents to sound his hooter. Ten Cents does so, and nothing happens until the marker buoy sinks, much to everyone's surprise.
In the easiest outline called 'The Jinxed Tug', a jinxed switcher (approximately seventy five feet in length and is once referred to as 'her' in the outline, yet by male terms everywhere else) keeps getting into horrific accidents. While assisting the Star Tugs, he is ran over by a ship and rolls over. During the roll, a crewman is sucked down his stack.
This draft had two optional endings. One ending had the jinxed switcher being purchased by a young farmer after the accident with the oil tanker, converted into a houseboat, and moved upriver. He admits to Ten Cents one day that he never enjoyed being a tug. Another ending had a Mexican buy the switcher and destroy him by crashing him into some rocks. This draft was then planned to be used for the tenth episode.
In early 1987, a description of the story said it was to show the dangers of working in waters and the respect that the Star Fleet had for the sea. The episode was also near the end and took place in autumn.
In a later draft, Captain Star brings in a upriver tug named Boomer and it is said that most tugs are proud of who they are. Boomer's first two jobs respectively end with him sinking and something exploding. At Lucky's Yard, he confesses his reluctance to be a tug to Ten Cents. In one last accident, his aft deck and wheelhouse is destroyed. Later on, Ten Cents meets Boomer - as a happy converted house boat.[1]
Jinx became a H.I.V.E. Academy student, along with Gizmo and Mammoth. Her first mission with her classmates (for which they were dispatched by the H.I.V.E. Headmistress, who had been hired by Slade) was to destroy the Titans. They managed to force the Titans out of their tower, but the Titans came back with Robin and managed to defeat Jinx and her team. At some point, Jinx was also associated with the Junior H.I.V.E. Academy and Dark Way Prep.
The animated version of Jinx made a lot of appearances (being one of the main characters in a few issues) in Teen Titans Go!, starting in issue #1. It should be noted that, despite her limited role in the TV-series, she gained significant popularity among the fans, especially following the premiere of the episode "Lightspeed".
In issues #26 and #27, hints are given of her later "turning over a new leaf" (like the hints in the episode "Lightspeed"). She also appeared in issue #34 as Kid Flash's girlfriend and became jealous when he began inadvertently flirting with Raven, Argent, and several other females. In issue #36, she gets captured along with the other Titan heroines by Blackfire, and is almost sold to slavery by the Gordanians. In issue #39, she is still with Kid Flash, but when Larry, who is playing Cupid, strikes other women with his love arrows when Flash would not allow himself to be hit, she has her hands full with keeping them from flirting with her boyfriend.
In issue #53, it is revealed that Jinx's nickname is/was "Lucky" and that she had entertained a disappointing relationship with Kid Kold (AKA Leo), one of the two villains (along with his sister, Ice Kate) featured in that issue, before joining the H.I.V.E. At the end of the day, Jinx shares her first official kiss with Kid Flash.
At first, Jinx appears to be quiet, mean, mysterious, often speaking in whispers, and sometimes depicted as rather crazy because of the evil, crooked grin she usually wore when battling. However, in "Lightspeed", we see a more determined, outspoken, and more sane Jinx who wanted to be respected and not shunned because of her bad-luck powers. In this episode she gets frustrated and emotional. Kid Flash helped Jinx show her real personality, and how she feels about certain things. Generally, however, despite her habitual dark looks she is a very fashion-conscious girl, more intent on hunting for interesting attires and accessories rather than getting rich. Furthermore, she is characterized as the "popular girl" in the H.I.V.E.; in the series, a number of super teens including Kid Flash, Cyborg, See-More and Kid Kold did reveal that they have (or had) a big crush on her.
Jinx is the girlfriend of Kid Flash. Their relationship was kind of rocky at first, as Jinx originally hated Kid Flash when he replaced the stolen necklace in her hand with a rose. They are off that road and now really care for each other. In the comics, they are shown to be more romantic. They have been seen on dates to the movies, at the carnival, at the pizza place, and in the park. They help each other when they need it like when Jinx helped Kid Flash all the way to the tower and pleaded with Raven to help him get his powers back. They are opposites. While Jinx has been cursed with bad luck and was barely surviving at a villainess career, Kid Flash has lived a normal life until there was an accident and he became Kid Flash the partner of The Flash. Jinx becomes easily jealous when he flirts with other girls. Because of Jinx being a former villainess, she went undercover once to join the Fearsome Five.
When Kid Flash was watching through the monitor he was worried about her and he told the Titans not to hurt her. In "Dial H for Hero", Kid Flash called Jinx "Slowpoke," like how Kid Kold had nicknamed her "Lucky." Kid Flash and Jinx are a strong couple in the series, despite only featuring them for a few episodes. They deeply care for each other and they help each other when one is in trouble.
These three were very close friends (or at the least strong allies) at the H.I.V.E. Academy and during their time as members of the H.I.V.E. Five. They are never seen without one another until the last episode of the series. The extension of their relationships with one another is not pin-pointed, but in "Final Exam", they seemed comfortable associating with one another in the Titans' lounge; they also share a dwelling place as the H.I.V.E. Five. Jinx was the unofficial leader of this posse while at the H.I.V.E. Academy, and she was the titled leader of the H.I.V.E. Five. They always trained together at the Academy, as their varying talents and skills complemented the others' very nicely. Because of this, these three would fight back-to-back with very synchronized battle tactics, which often lead them to victories. However, when Jinx switched sides and joined Kid Flash, she did not hesitate to defeat Gizmo and Mammoth and allow them to be flash-frozen though stated it was not personal.
Little is known about this relationship. They had broken up when Jinx went to study at the H.I.V.E academy. He had gotten his sister (Ice Kate) involved with the crime business. He is a villain too but has never made a debut in the TV series. When they were dating Kid Kold and Jinx developed nicknames for each other. Jinx's was "Lucky" while his was "Leo." He was shocked to find out that she was a Titan and was even more shocked that she was the girlfriend of Kid Flash. When Jinx says she does not want to hurt him and if could just come along with her so she could take him to jail, he replied coldly, "So what? You expect me to turn myself in or something? Just cause of what we once had?." When he reaches for his ice gun, it turns out his sister had taken it to battle Kid Flash. Jinx uses her powers to pull his pants down at the same moment Kid Flash returns with Ice Kate in ice. When the two are arrested, Kid Flash shows some concern but, Jinx said that is was all good. "Lucky huh?, Were you two an item or something?" "One of the many mistakes I made in the past. Life's good now... and so am I." Kid Flash and Jinx share their first official kiss.
See-More is one of the Hive Five members. He and Jinx have not dated but have shown interest in each other. In "Lightspeed", they are seen working together. See-More was there for Jinx when she needed it, but in Jinx's vision he was more like a friend, even though See-More may have wanted to be more. When she leaves on her own to find Kid Flash to prove that she is not completely useless, many of the members did not want to come, but See-More came. When she thanks him, a faint blush is shown on his face before floating away in his giant eye balloon. When the episode is almost done, See-More offers to rob a technology store together, but Jinx kindly rejects his offer.
In early episodes, it was thought that her powers were magical in nature; however, in later episodes, she is seen exhibiting her powers as a free flow output through her brain, common for most psionics. When she wants her enemies to be "jinxed," she mostly uses her energy waves to disrupt solid structures in her surroundings, though other effects are also possible, such as tidal waves. Her bad-luck energy can also serve a direct offensive role as concussive blasts. As shown in the Teen Titans Go! issue #1, her powers cannot bypass Raven's dark-energy shields.
