"Titans"

Favorite DC Comic Books of 2011

What a year for DC. A universe-defining event in Flashpoint, wrapping up final issues, and the relaunching of an entire line of books gave fans one heck of a rollercoaster, and although were now well into DC’s “New 52″ the lasting impression from the titles that came before are still fresh in our minds (and in some cases will never leave). DC’s complete body of work in 2011 is unlike any year we’ve ever seen; still, everyone has a favorite…

Our favorite DC books category includes any comic book series from 2011; before or after the relaunch.

Titans #35 Review

The train wreck that is the continuing all villainous Titans title continues with yet another chapter of the team vs Drago the all seeing blind man.

Titans #34 Review

The current run of Titans has some interesting recurring themes, when you think about it. The name itself, usually used for heroes, now for this band of murderers and mercenaries. Then you have Roy Harper, a former hero fallen very much to the dark side. Osiris was a hero, too, and is now obsessed with restoring his lost family to the point he’s killing people to do it. Isis seems to be back, and either her power has gone wrong, or she’s the way she was just before the Wizard Shazam de-powered her and turned her to stone– a killer. Deathstroke himself has wavered over the years from villain to pretty much outright hero during Titans Hunt to anti-hero in his own book, and is now back to bad guy. So the running thread seems to be corruption in many forms. Add in Ink, who was nearly a hero during Infinite Crisis, and then lost it, and Cinder, who seems to be a child abuse victim, and I think I may be on to something here.

Fan Fiction | Titans: Intervention

Deep within the Labyrinth, his sprawling underground base, Slade Wilson carefully examined the size changing belt that had belonged to Ryan Choi, the latest Atom, now dead, a victim of Slade and his team. He was pleased. He had killed a hero (not his first), been well paid, and all the while camouflaged his true intent. Misdirection was a useful tool.
