Teen Titans (New 52 Version)


GOD, what a sh!tty comic. No enthusiasm with the writing or development of the characters. You don't even get the feeling they like each other or why they should even stay a team other than the fact that they're the teen heroes of the DCU. I really cannot understand how this series continues to get renewed or why a writer with a passion for the group doesn't come aboard and do a major overhaul.

This is coming from a life-long Titans fan too. Its a shame how crummy the book is since the DC relaunch. It was sagging before but at least someone was trying to come up with ideas and characters to keep it afloat. Nowadays it just exists generally because of the name alone.

When theres no more room in Hollywood, remakes shall walk the Earth.

I was alright with the Earth One version, but volume 1 ends a little... off.

The characters themselves are quite interesting but as a team... eeehhh... You are right about that, no real development. Power Girl alone should have more play - she literally just got gifted her powers and now she is a full-on member of the team but she has no real substance.

I'm not a fan of the rebooted Manchester Black and as soon as they do away with him and the whole Titans vs Elite thing, the story might move into something a bit more cohesive. It feels like it has lost it's way quite badly.

It's hot... but not as hot as the night Johnny Viti got married...

I decided not to read it after my brother raged for 3 hours about their treatment of Tim.

There is, unseen by most, an underworld...a place that is just as real, but not as brightly lit...

Read it, so you may know true pain!
