James Gunn and Peter Safran’s ousting at DC Studios has been met with sadness by several actors and crew members who worked with the pair. On social media, stars have publicly thanked them for the experience and expressed disappointment at the news. One person who isn’t shedding a tear about Gunn’s departure is Greg Cipes, who was the longtime voice actor for Beast Boy in DC animation, including Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go!. RELATED: James Gunn’s DCU Is Over, and It Left DC in Worse Shape Than Zack Snyder Did On Instagram, the account Gunnverse posted about a fan-led petition to save the Gunnverse (which has passed 150,000 signatures on Change.org) – and yes, this is basically a “Restore the Snyderverse” 2.0. Cipes responded in the comments, writing, “Karma for firing Beast Boy. The dude [is] lame.” So what’s the story between Cipes and Gunn, huh? Well, it’s more between Cipes and DC/Warner Bros., actually.
