Characters similar to Raven from Teen Titans animated series?
Teen Titans was my favourite show as a kid, and from what I can tell the comic books are, for the most part, very different as far as character personality types go. Raven is usually more of a side character from what I've read.
Anyways, are there any comic characters similar to Raven that I might enjoy?

Raven actually has her own solo series right now that I think you would enjoy: https://www.comixology.com/Raven-2016/comics-series/77384
Another similar character you may enjoy is Illyana Rasputin aka Magik of the X-Men. I actually have an extensive list of what to read for Magik right here.
WOW! How did I not know about this! :) Thanks a lot, I'll definitely be giving it a look. I always felt Raven was a complex enough character to deserve her own series.
For the Raven comic, are there any direct prequels I should read first? It seems to me in the first book to be referencing one of the Teen Titans series.
It's just a reference, it's not really important. The Raven series is a pretty significant departure from the (frankly, weird) characterization Raven had in the previous series.
That's good. I really liked how they did her character in Teen Titans, it's nice to see she's actually getting some recognition as a stand alone hero.
