All TEEN TITANS fans have heard it…

“This book hasn’t been good since Johns left.”

“TEEN TITANS has been pretty crappy since around Infinite Crisis.”

“This book has no direction at all.”

I’m here to say that this is completely, and utterly untrue.

Now, hear me out. I’ll admit that TEEN TITANS has been lacking something, and catching a lot of flack for the past few years, and I’ll also be the first to tell you that I didn’t enjoy a lot of that stuff. The team constantly changing, creative teams switching, and sometimes a general sense that the book didn’t really matter.

However, for the past 4 issues or so, TEEN TITANS has been up to par with a lot of what Geoff Johns did. Sure, the stories haven’t been as epic, and it hasn’t had as an important role in the DCU, but that doesn’t stop the book from being absolutely fantastic. With character driven stories, great art, great new characters and some interesting new directions, it’s really a shame that this book isn’t getting the attention it should.

If you’re a TEEN TITANS fan and you’ve jumped ship, now is a great time to jump back on. We’d love to have you.
