This issue did well in the “Teen” but lacked in the “Titans”. The high points are Tim’s conversations with Cassie a.k.a. Wonder Girl. The best line in this book is when Cassie says, “Yo. Up here. And before you ask–yes, they’re real.” As a teenage guy myself I have had one of these akward moments. My problem with this book was that Red Robin and Cassie did not team up and she only springs into action for one panel. I’m usually the one craving for more action than drama but Cassie and Tim are being set up as love interests and that’s what makes this issue good. So when it goes into action mode with Red Robin trying to rescue Skitter from some N.O.W.H.E.R.E. freelancers it kinda goes flat. Though it was cool to see R.R. do more fighting than he did in the last issue. Also in the beginning of the book we see Kid Flash, who if you didn’t know is Bart Allen and not Wally, as he’s in a N.O.W.H.E.R.E. holding cell with an old school ball and chain on his ankle which is pretty Looney Toons comedical. though his segment is short, in the last page another eventual team member is revealed. Though it wasn’t much of a cliffhanger because I know nothing about the character. Last and least Brett Booth’s art is very good all in all, but I had a problem with how Superboy looked like an old school evil villain.

Story: 3 - Good
Art: 4 - Very Good

  1. Like it. One of the DCnU books that feels new yet familiar in a good way. I am on board for now.
