Titans Appreciation 2024

[OBrianTallent]

The Titans certainly have enough current and former members to make multiple teams...
Nightwing, Donna, Flash, Arsenal, Tempest, Bumblebee, Guardian, Lilith, Joker's Daughter
Flamebird, Golden Eagle, Hawk, Dove, Lilith, Aquagirl, Gnaark
Beast Boy, Raven, Starfire, Cyborg, Jericho, Kole, Terra, Red Star
Argent, Jesse Quick, Damage, Supergirl
Atom, Prysm, Hot Spot, Risk, Capt Marvel Jr
Mirage, Pantha, Wildebeest, Kyle, Jason Todd, Danny Chase/Phantasm
Impulse, Ravager, Minion, Magenta...

And that's not even counting the YJ Titans and all the members they had. If DC actually wanted to...invested in top tier creators like the do for JLA, Superman or Batman...DC could easily rival the X-titles.

Oh, I'd love a book with a team based around some of the lesser used Titans past, like Joker's Daughter, Golden Eagle, Argent, Jericho, Kole, Damage and, ha ha, Danny Chase / Phantasm.

Duela is particularly fun, because she has already explored being the 'daughter' of the Joker and Two-Face, imagine if she mixed it up and changed her schtick every few months. Now she's Killer Moth's Daughter, with a completely different motif and gadgets, moth wings, decaying gas, moth-swarm-attracting pheremones. Halfway through the year, she gets bored again, and injects herself with a derivative of Venom and goes by the name Bane's Daughter. Then Poison Ivy's Daughter, with a numbing toxin on her thorn darts and thorny whip, and perfumes that make others suggestible or weak (and wooden armor plates built into her costume). Her only consistent theme is that she seems to stick to Batman villains, but maybe not always!

If they attempted to give the Titans franchise a real boost ala X-men, how would you all break up the series into multiple titles?

You could split Titans into East and West but it's probably better to keep Titans since it is a recognizable name. So I would do Titans with the NTT roster plus Tempest, Teen Titans with the YJ4 as the mentors to the next generation which consist of characters from TTA (Stich, Black Ice, etc.), Team Titans as a covert ops unit led by Arsenal, and Tales of the Titans as a showcase or anthology series for lesser known Titans (Damage, Argent, etc.). I would have Cyborg, Raven, Starfire and Beast Boy each have their own solo series.

I don't really understand how doing multiple teams would make them rival X-Men or whatever else. If DC can't do one Titans book that breaks out what makes you think that they'll suddenly be able to do 3-4 good Titans series? Besides, in the past we did have two Titans team at the same time, but people probably don't even remember that.

The amount of past members has never been one of the Titans problems. The problem is the amount that are actually marketable.
