    I’m a big fan of NTT but, for me, every series after the 1984 one that focused on that team has not been good. I enjoyed the recent team with Djinn and Roundhouse much better. As well as the team when Sean McKeever was writing (Tim Drake, Cassie, Blue Beetle, Kid Devil, Miss Martian, Supergirl, and Ravager).

    Avengers Academy had staying power, but the editorial went full clown and threw away all that potential for Avengers Arena(or whatever that awful storyline was where Marvel killed off a bunch of teen/ YA heroes at the hands of... I forgot who orchestrated that debacle. I think it was Arcade?)

    X Men students get cameos on Krakoa.
    Yeah, Arcade was the villain of Avengers Arena.

    And I agree, I'm not sure even Emily Bright has a future after Strange Academy ends, and she's basically the main character, being the one used to introduce the readers to the concept.

    Maybe it's because I joined late, but I truly enjoyed both the Technis Imperative & the Devin Grayson series that came out of that event.

    DC fans: Urgh, why do Titans need to open up the Academy, it will be a terrible idea.

    Marvel fans who have read Avengers Academy, All new X-Men and Strange Academy for the first time hear DC publishing a Titan academy book and then see DC fans upset about it: FIRST TIME?

    The academy angle was actually one of the most common fan pitches with the Titans.

    Yeah, I'm tired of listen that the former team is not able to bear a good title.
    It just depends on the writer. Devin Grayson's run is the perfect exmaple. All you need is loving the characters, having something to tell and being a skilled writer.

    I thought the most common pitch was Titans not getting killed off and turned evil for shock value and no betrayal arcs.

    How does that shirt work? A miscolor? It's supposed to be all red and sleeveless?

    Yes, it's sleeveless, and the fleshtone parts on his chest are supposed to be yellow.
