DC My Way – Teen Titans

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

What I know: They’re a bunch of the sidekicks and young heroes teaming together to fight the lesser evils.

Huh. Most of them are color coordinated. What.

Huh. Most of them are color coordinated. What.

Superboy and Robin were fast friends. They met initially after Batman and Superman teamed up and had to save their mentors, finding that they worked together really well. And so, they started working together now and then, finding that the two of them were a bit of a magnet for other young heroes working under older, more established heroes. It was a shame that they met so sporadically, since they all were on fairly good terms with one another after their bouts, but always just ended up going home afterwards to their mentors or their civilian lives.

And then it happened. Something came up that their mentors just didn’t seem to be able to see. Robin was the first to grow frustrated with his mentor and found that Superboy was having the same trouble. Kid Flash found them soon after, as did Wonder Girl, all of them trying to figure out why their mentors didn’t even seem to see the threat that was appearing on the news. No one over 25, actually, seemed to be able to tell there was anything at all.

They managed to take the threat down together, joined in the end by Blue Beetle and Static, when Nightwing dropped by to congratulate them. He suggested maybe they should start up the Titans again and gave them the location of the old base and they way to activate it again. With a place to meet, that seemed to settle it. They had a bit of a rotating roster, but the Teen Titans were formed.

Comic Run 10-2-09

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

And now, comic reviews! Yeah, like anyone ever thought I’d give these up. Well, let’s get to it, neh?

Echo #15
Another lovely issue, this time with ivy coming back out of the hope that Julie can help her daughter. From foe to friend in one conversation and an act. It’s pretty nicely played, though I can’t help but think they’re a few pages short. Somehow, the issue just seems to run short.

Runaways #14
I… um… what? Was that Gert? I miss enjoying this series and I’m really liking the new writer on teh series, though I’m not in love with the art. It does, however, feel a lop more like the old BKV days and I think I might even forgive them for bringing back Gert, though I’m really hoping it’s not her. It means more to the series if she stays dead.

Spiderman: Clone Saga #1
I skimmed it. I’ll read it proper later, but there’s just so much text and exposition crammed onto the pages that I really just glazed over it. Plus Mary Jane’s there and I just don’t know what the timeline is or what’s going on with it, so I’m going to leave it for the moment. Maybe later this week I’ll read it and make sense of it.

Teen Titans #75
Ever since I found out Static joined the Titans, I’ve been debating whether or not to pick up Titans again. Its not bad, but I missed a lot. What happened to Eddie? I guess Robin’s off being one of the Batman encarnates in another book and can’t keep going as leader and they left it to Cassie, who seems to have a breakdown over everything. We’ll see how it goes.
