Alex Lu and Kyle Pinion dive into this strange and continuity heavy book with surprising results!
Wow, what a clickbait title for reviewing such garbage material. Keep lowering the bar, Beat.
Skottie, I’m a bit tired of your insults here. One more and you’re out for good.
Being a fan of the Perez/Wolfman New Teen Titans, I originally was disappointed when Titans Hunt was more about the original team. That mini won me over and this book is probably the one that I looked forward to most after the Superman books. I’m not a big Brett Booth fan but I don’t think that he’s a bad choice here. I have faith that Dan Abnett will continue to have me anticipating this book every month.
“Skottie, I’m a bit tired of your insults here. One more and you’re out for good.” – Where is a Like button when you need one!
As a longtime Teen Titans fans (a TOO-long-time reader) it’s fascinating to see all the on-ramps for a property like this. The cartoons, the Perez/Wolfman series, etc.
I think the Filmation shorts sparked my interest in the old Nick Cardy comics – so long ago. Glad to see it still resonating with fans today.
I’m more of a Wolfman/Perez-era Titans reader myself but I think the choice to go with the original Titans is a good one.
First, it helps sell the back-to-basics concept. These characters are the core. Abnett really evoked the feeling of being in your early-20s where you spend all of your time with a tight-knit group of friends, doing random crap.
Second, trying to put in the Wolfman characters would have been a real mess. The New-52 has not been kind to Starfire, Changeling, Raven, Cyborg, Jericho, etc. It’d be a monumental task to walk them back from where they are now.
I wasn’t that impressed by the book. I thought it was the typical story of, hero mistakes other and fight only to end up friends after fight. Wally seemed to be able to “shock” them into remembering, but couldn’t with his wife? All a bit rushed and jammed into a single issue.
MY biggest complaint is the annoying hat Roy wears. I can overlook it now, but in the flashback sequences, he’s wearing it. Why lord, why?. Is he going bald? The other thing that stuck out was the bright happy colors of their costumes in the past compared to the darker tones, dark blue, grey, black colors now Look forward to the younger Teen Titan book scheduled
First things first: Nathan, I was looking for that “like” button too.
What interests me in this current iteration of the Titans is that, while it’s using (some) different characters, I think in Titans Hunt and here, Abnett has done a lot to capture the tone of the Wolfman/Perez group. Long-time friends who have been through a lot and love and trust each other. They’ve seen action, fallen in and out love, and have a lot of history together. Whether it’s Cyborg and Starfire and Changeling or Lilith and Wally and Garth, that resonates.
