Titans/Teen Titans Appreciation 2019

[Frontier]

Teen Titans Giant is relaunching, I assume for synergy with the streaming TV series.

Is that Tim's Rebirth suit?

That R placement looks off. I know Tim's R is always stylized but it looks strange.

And the hair looks more like Dick's, in my opinion.

The Nightwing style domino mask doesn't help.

SIDEWAYS? And Damian.. alone?

So are these reprints or what? Every time I look at these covers with pre-flashpoint mixed with other more modern DC stuff hurts my head.

It's like Archie's digests (some of them)-one new story and reprints of already published stuff. Only difference is Archie will redo some of their reprints to pretend Chuck Clayton was in a story that was 20 years before he was created.

I wold be weary of that all new story because they did that story with Rob Liefied as the artist. So if that art look like his-that's why.

i really don't recall Jason being a Titan. Maybe it was brief?

I think he was briefly on the team during Wolfman's run when Donna led the team and Dick was retired.

There's a few parts that Jason was with the original Titans, but yeah. It was brief.

DC Comics Cancels Titans and Damage in April

Not surprising at all. I think Abnett's Titans run has been dreadful, but it felt obvious this book was going to get cancelled when they never relaunched it with a new #1 when Abnett came back to the title with a new team. The same thing is going to likely happen to Teen Titans. It will probably get cancelled after the Deathstroke crossover. They will probably relaunch both titles later in the year, but the property has been a mess for a long time and they should let it cool off for a while until someone has a good idea with what to do with the property. Something that isn't terrible or a retread.

About time Abnett's run ended. Where these characters go next will be interesting.

Steel is probably going to limbo.

Kyle is probably back in GL.

Ms.Martian will wind up in limbo unless Bendis adds her to YJ for synergy(though she would clash with the tone YJ has).

Raven, BB and Donna's status is unclear. If Dick is back to himself, they'll probably be on a team with him.

If Dick is still Ric, my guess is that Raven and BB will wind up on YJ or TT(assuming that isn't cancelled too) and Donna will wind up in limbo(she should go to WW and see if Wilson can repair the damage done to her character).

I bugs me that TITANS is cancelled. Sure, this has not been my favorite arc of the concept but I just like the core team so much that I just hate when it is started and stopped

Maybe give it a year away before a relaunch? Give creators time to really develop a strong direction for the characters and concept.

Sadly, despite everything, Abnett wrote a good Raven, Beast Boy, Miss Martian (and for now no one has complained about Kyle). Now they go to limbo or back to status quo.

I wasn't a fan of Abnett's Beast Boy. It felt like he transferred all of Cyborg's 'Am I a man or monster?' angst to BB and used it as a diabolos ex machina to create unneeded drama.
