Titans/Teen Titans Appreciation 2019

Why's that?

I think its how he got them there. Can Damian even contain Atomic Skull by himself? Did he defeat them with the team then capture them or by himself?

Very, her Jupiter family connections need to be explored again.

Lilith is sooooooo underrated. She could easily end up being DC's Emma/Jean level complicated telepath.

I hated the retcon they put on her.

So it’s not so much the prision itself that bothers you as it is who he’s got locked away inside it? I can understand that.

[Ironmonk]

wrong thread, sorry

I hated the retcon they put on her.

I liked it, it gave more backstory to her. She was basically a copy of Donna looking for her parents before this. And Jupiter was an established Titans character that actually effected the books in a positive way I think.

I preferred the retcon of making Lilith the daughter of Loren Jupiter over the daughter of the Titan god Thia which even back then I felt was a little too contrived and convenient. I had hoped when she was brought back with Rebirth to be part of the Titans that not only would more be done with her character, but she would also have more consistent appearances, but alas that was not to be the case. (Just as an aside, her powers could be exceptionally done on TV and she would be a cool addition to the Titans tv series.)

I feel like Lillith's role as a (heroic) telepath has been underutilized in the DCU. Frankly, they don't have that many prominent telepathic heroes (whereas Marvel seems to be dripping in them!) Abnett seemed to be leaning into powering her up, until she was thrown to the wayside with the roster change.

And yes, yes, yes Ms. Martian is currently filling that role...but I'd rather see her on YJ and have Lillith in the Titans.

[Harpsikord]

I'm still not convinced that Miss Martian wasn't originally going to be Lilith in the current run. She was one of Dan's favorites and we know that Miss Martian was forced on him super late by editorial.

[Godlike13]

I dont see it with Lilith honestly.

You don't seem to like most of the lower Titans.

With her telepathy, Lilith could act as a counselor for heroes with issues. It would make her more relevant to the DC universe and based on recent events, there needs to be at least one hero who is a competent shrink.

Which Dan? Ten char.

[Franny6422]

Which Dan? Ten char.

All moot now. 'Titans' ending with issue 36. Seriously!

[Digifiend]

I think we can thank Tom King for that. Nightwing getting shot in Batman derailed the plans for both Nightwing's solo book and Titans. So now they're wrapping up Raven's storyline and then calling it a day.
