I wonder if not buying Teen Titans was a mistake...

Me too!

me three!

Raven...   I'm still waiting...

You're so right it's taking forever but hopefully the pace speeds up and we wil see other cool characters and more backstory for the old ones!

The art is great and the writing has been good too. Scott has taken his time to establish his characters, the situation they are going trough and the antagonist in an entertaining way without being boring. However its time to get past this N.O.W.H.E.R.E. and into other villians. If there is something I have to criticize about the New 52 is that the first arcs are taking forever. This was meant to be introductory arcs and should have been fast paced and entertaining...at least until they got readers hooked. Afterwards they could have gone into the six issues story arcs...just saying...

I just finished reading this issue and I loved it! They do seem like teenagers and I'm slowly growing to accept each characters changes and also the new characters (not so much of Skitter but she's okay). I like how Brett's art looks so much better compared to the first issue, it really stands out and Dalhouse really compliments the art as well. Lastly, the Cliffhanger.... who's the Omen? hopefully Lilith Clay?

i like the art

Why does this book look like it stepped out of Image circa 1996? I'm not saying the art is bad, I'm just saying that the character designs themselves look like something that was thought up in the good 'ole 1990's. Needless to say, this is one book I will not be picking up. Looks way to much like Liefield had to much say on this one.

I am so disappointed with the DCnU. All the stories I liked that got me into comics now don't matter and the new stories have little (if anything) to do with them. If this was DC's Ultimate universe, I'd be fine with it. A new spin on the characters, while the originals got to go on to continue the tales they were building

I really can't wait for the issue where Barry Allen wakes up with the rest of the league starring at him as he say "Oh man. I just had the weirdest dream. I stopped Flashpoint, but then everything was different. And you were there, and you, and you..."

On a side note, anyone else wonder why Lodell referred to him as "Beast" and not "Beast Boy"? think they might be officially changing his name or was it just an abbreviation?

@Tmul501: i do agree all the faces do look really similar

@Ekimus81: You need to relax.

<--- Look at this picture. I'm sorry but it just bothers me. That's an impossible pose to shoot an arrow, he's grabbing the whole thing with his tiny fist, his other arms is stretched strangely across his chest, and just everything about his body pose is off. And a lot of those muscles look imaginary.

All of their bodies are weirdly elongated, their faces are too big for their heads and Superman's chest is all droopy, and he's got tiny little hands. Flash looks good though.

3. Sorry you didn't like my stuff? I'd take your opinion more seriously if you weren't just violently yelling at me.

5. Wow, pure douchebaggery, really, you're going to thank other people for disliking my work? How small of you.

Geeze. Yeah. Ekimus81 passed 'out of line' a while ago and is still pushing. Sorry for his attack=/

You're actually not wrong about that Green Arrow pose being off. That's semi forgivable though since it's possible he just isn't that familiar with archery. His schedule probably didn't permit him to do the necessary research to get a perfect pose. I'm sure the average person can't find any fault with the pose though. I've just seen way too many episodes of Robin Hood(1955) to miss it=P

Damn. That JLA pic looks bad too. To be honest, I haven't really seen all that much of his stuff aside from his Anita Blake covers, but when I was looking at what you were saying and then looking at the pics posted in the preview in the article above I was like...wtf?! Because the images above are pretty spot on anatomically speaking. He's got dynamic anatomy down really well too. In fact...that's probably when his anatomy is MORE on the mark=P Speaking of, since you're a student I'm wondering if you have the book Dynamic Anatomy by Burne Hogarth? It's a really great resource that I can not recommend highly enough.

@Ekimus81 its an awesome costume and i like the POWERRRR!!!! but i miss the old superboy :( i loved his series

@Ekimus81: I wouldn't call basic human anatomy a small issue. I agree my comment was "disrespectful" but i was being honest. From personal experience, the honest truth/opinions about someone's work is the best way for improvement. Sugar coating it isn't always the best option. Which you seemed to have no problem with when you were talking about My art. As for the time/energy spent on his work, I respect when any artist puts forth effort and gets a positive result. But Booth himself said he did that Green Arrow drawing really fast at the last minute, that was his excuse when a professional archer called him out on that image. Instead of owning up to his lack of research on the subject, he told the guy to fuck off and sounded very unprofessional to me. V

Nerd rage at others' nerd rage is the single greatest waste of energy i could think of. Haters gonna hate. I'm sure if you were disappointed in the direction and creative team of the characters you grew up with, which i'm sure you have been in the past, you would want to complain too.

Are there a list of rules I should read? Or should everyone just check with you before they post a comment and make sure it doesn't ruin something for you? There's dozens of news stories I think are exciting, like the new 52, and people were furious about it. But i thought it was a great concept and I got excited about what I wanted to be excited about and was bothered by things that bothered me. (coughHarleyQuinncough). Don't let people get to you and you will do well* in life

@redhood21: I enjoy Superboy old costume a lot more than any other costume. But im giving a chance to this new 52 costume and see what happens. Something i have enjoy is that they have made Superboy stronger than before I think.

@Mbecks14:

Ok so lets start with your first statement and why I got angry in the first place. This was your words "Still waiting on a real artist".....As an statement that was rude and I take it to heart because you have NO idea how long this guy is been drawing or the dedication his putting into this for everyone to enjoy. As a comic book collector you should know that. Instead of making a comment like that you should have thought of something different and state that you don't enjoy his work in Teen Titans and that his anatomy is off balance for your taste.

You don't have to like Bretts art but if you say your going to art school to be an artist be RESPECTFUL of other artists. I know this sounds like Brett Booths is my favorite artist and his not really in my top 5 favorites but his in my list of good artist I like. And I have a certain respect for him and hope that other people do.

If I did sound high and mighty is because every time I read news of comics books, there are people like you that ruined the news. Instead of reading news and then the post something positive is all negative and that upsets me to the point, I'm tired of being quiet. If people like you have the power to complain about a small issue as anatomy then i have the power to return the favor. If you respect people you will receive respect in return. Is really that simple.

Opinions about comic book writers and artist is something and being rude and offensive is other so learn the simple rules and you will do good in life.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

@ajc254: Im right there with you buddy is bad that other people can't see good art in comic books these days

Hey, to each his own. I'm loving this series more with each issue, and it looks like I'm not the only one. Brett Booth has been awesome.

@Ekimus81: You need to relax.

1. I'm still a student so there's one reason I'm not in the "big leagues"

2. I understand some people have different taste in art. And yeah his style might match your tastes, but am I not allowed to complain because i DON'T like his art just because YOu do?

<--- Look at this picture. I'm sorry but it just bothers me. That's an impossible pose to shoot an arrow, he's grabbing the whole thing with his tiny fist, his other arms is stretched strangely across his chest, and just everything about his body pose is off. And a lot of those muscles look imaginary.

All of their bodies are weirdly elongated, their faces are too big for their heads and Superman's chest is all droopy, and he's got tiny little hands. Flash looks good though.

Those things bother me. And some other guy posted some newer pen drawings that he's done that are actually pretty good and I liked them. But i still don't like his art. And i don't have to.

3. Sorry you didn't like my stuff? I mean a lot of people usually do. It's not perfect, Batman turned out really strangely in that one picture. I'd take your opinion more seriously if you weren't just violently yelling at me. You clearly have issue with me, so your opinion is already biased and you'll automatically dislike it. I do have a long way to go thanks, I still have 4 years until I graduate.

4. I was making a point that you sound a little high and mighty yourself, saying that nobody else should be giving their opinions on a comic book. I'm sure we're all equally nerdy. But my disappointment with the Titans is just as relevant as your enjoyment. And thus, we discuss it. I'm tired of whiny comic fans too, but only when their complaints are illegitimate. Or they cry about any single change. I complain when i think there is a legitimate problem. I think the internet and these forums prove that it is Everyone's turn to speak.

5. Wow, pure douchebaggery, really, you're going to thank other people for disliking my work? How small of you. Other people did say they liked my work, even if they still like Booth's.

What sense do i need knocked into my head? That I should love brett booth's art? That i shouldn't complain about it if I don't like it? Sorry if my opinion offended you?

@Mbecks14:

Well thanks for your so great opinion. Everyone is entitled to make their own opinion and I don't mind to hear or read it as long is a constructive and helpful opinion. But I'm so tired of people like you and yes arrogance is a good word. So how about next time you think in criticizing good artist keep your opinion to yourself. Oh wait I forgot are you an artist? Then why haven't you make in the big leagues yet if you think you are that great? Hmmmmmmmmm..........

The fact that your sorry because I like Brett Booth art shouldn't matter. I like good artist and not poor ones. I think I would worry when people start liking your art because. Well I wasn't IMPRESSED AT ALL!. Sorry and good luck on your quest to be in comic book world. Oh wait you have long way to go.

Yes I might sound like a whinny comic book nerd or geek. But then why you contradict yourself? LMAO. "But until you become a bigger comic-nerd than the rest of us then i think you should open your mouth and give opinions" - I gotta say I have earned my respect as comic book geek and thats why Im speaking out loud because IM TIRED OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU!...... so again thanks so much for expressing and sharing your opinion just learn to speak when is your turn

@thechessclub - Thanks for you opinion on Mbecks14 art.

@KidSupreme- Thanks also for your opinion and help in this conversation maybe we get some sense in this guys mind .

@Ekimus81 said:

@Mbecks14: Maybe when you become a bigger artist than Brett Booth then I think should open you mouth and give opinions

Most definitely will :D But i guess if you need to be a professional in an area to give/have an opinion on an artist...then nobody should be saying anything? :/ that's a bummer.

I'm pretty sure everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Sorry if you like his art, maybe his style is your taste. But I see a lot of glaring problems with his work and I just don't like it. Maybe you dislike an artist I like. I'll apologize again for sounding so arrogant but I was defending myself and my opinion. Which I'm entitled to.

You sound like any other whiny comic fan. Yeah nobody likes all the irritating comic nerds who stomp around because they don't get their way, but that's never gonna stop. Everyone has their opinion and they should voice it. But until you become a bigger comic-nerd than the rest of us then i think you should open your mouth and give opinions...wait...

Doesn't DC own Backlash? They should have him show up, considering Booth drew the guy.

@Mbecks14: Maybe when you become a bigger artist than Brett Booth then I think should open you mouth and give opinions

Dear Babies;

Im sooooooo tired of people freaking criticizing Teen Titans when to me if you dont like the book DON'T FREAKING BUY IT is that simple. The new 52 it wasn't for everyone to love. I in particular was looking forward to I,Vampire but I hate the artwork and decide not buy it in my collection of new comics. If you dont have something cronstructive to say SHUT THE HELL UP! I know there are many Teen Titans fans and classic fans of the original group but the new 52 is something different. Cyborg is now part of Justice League I didnt like that and im still not fan of the idea but im giving it a chance to see where they take that idea. Starfire is part of The Red Hood and the Outlaws which i think is a great book. I love to read the news about comics but sooooo tired of the comic book geeks, and nerds to freaking butch and complain about them get the F/&% over yourself since your are not the one making comics take a break and think about the hard work this people do to entertain thousands of fans. This is the first and take time to write in a forum and really hope the last cuz i know half of the people would complain about my post but after all you waste time and energy reading it........so I wasnt stupid after lol. And for those who like my post Thanks and have a great day and keep enjoying the comic book industry

I see Booth's art panned a LOT since the relaunch. While I do agree, it reminds me a lot of 90's Image, I always considered him a fairly good artist during the 90s Image era. Just curious, of you guys who are insulting Booth, who do you consider current quality comic artist?

i liked old superboy and old titans better >:(

I'm still waiting to give the slightest damn about any of the new characters, especially when many of the characters I was already invested in are still in non-existence limbo. Hell, I think it could work better if it was JUST the four legacy characters.

The art is OK but Cassie's arms look a bit to buff for my taste.

The Art is fine . I like it . If something better comes along i will enjoy that too but so far i am Hooked.

@Mbecks14: I just need to say, I like the picture with the Superman's get up. I think your art is great.

However, i don't think you get human anatomy 100% since well, human anatomy and facial expressions are alot harder to grasp than just scenery or objects.

IMO I think Brett Booth's art is great, he does have a certain style towards facial expressions and alot of them look pretty "fierce" but that is his style of drawing and sales is dictating that the general audience actually like the art and story.

I find Brett's pencils always look much much better than his inked and colored stuff. Like the following

not RR's

lmao

The art is doing me no favors.

Am I the only one who thinks this comic looks ridiculously 90s?

I dunno what Wonder Girl's upper body workout routine is, but I want it.

@Mbecks14: I think your art is great! Batman looks younger and lighter on his feet. But I also love the art in Teen.

@thechessclub: Fair. But I'm just defending myself. Apologize for sounding so arrogant.

@Mbecks14 said:

@thechessclub: I'd say I take offense but i don't. I know that I'm a good artist and Brett Booth lacks any functioning concept of human anatomy. He has his style and i'm sure it's some people's cup of tea, but I know I'm good.

If your human anatomy is so superior then how come your Batman has a woman's dainty legs? I think you could stand to consume a little humble pie. It'd do you some good.

@thechessclub: I'd say I take offense but i don't. I know that I'm a good artist and Brett Booth lacks any functioning concept of human anatomy. He has his style and i'm sure it's some people's cup of tea, but I know I'm good.

@Mbecks14 said:

@Arevish:It irks me to see people like this getting work when there are much more talented people out there, not getting work. Myself included.

Um. Just went and took a gander at your gallery. Trust me. You aren't "more talented."

@Mbecks14: I totally dis-agree with you is, I think his artwork is good, NOT THE BEST, but good and better then a lot of other artist out there. I am curious to see how much better your work is compared to Brett Booth's art.

Besides these are comic books, I to have a lot of anatomy books and the superheroes anatomy is little different.

I'm just wondering if Lobdell actually speaks like that in real life.

The artwork doesn't look that bad, better than what I can draw.

I am wondering which title Raven is going to pop up since she's not appearing in TT anymore. My guess is probably either the Outlaws or JL Dark.

But I am just waiting for her to show up. :)

Nice!

I love these exclusive articles, the Scott Snyder stuff has been great and this is up there too. It should be time delayed with preference to subscribers though

@Ganthetsward20 said:

The art here is impressive! Ive enjoyed the story thus far but i have not read all the issues.

Impressive? LOL funny joke

dose any one noted the big guns that cassie has? and i mean her arm, and the art style works for me. it really dose :D

It seems from the images here that we are going to see the Teen Titans become more of a team than they have been for the past couple of issues.

still not interested in this book

Since when do Whiskey sites watermark images?

I'm looking forward to picking this book up in trade for Tim Drake, if nothing else. The art is fine, too. I don't understand why people hate it so much, other than to bash Liefeld for whatever reason.

Sure amloving Superboy myself...I may branch out soon enough to TT if that "Culling" story arc coming up in May is any good. This is great stuff. Go Lobdell!

hey i just noticed tims costume is very similar to dicks costume? aha

hey anyone readin teen titans Has this series been good so far?

i like tim drake, but it that enough to stick with the series?
