    Thawing the 'Past'

     There was only ONE thing on my mind when I got this one shot special: GEOFF JOHNS why didn't you write this? The idea of Teen Titans against The Rogues definitely sounded like an idea that Johns would have developed since his start on the book and his interest in The Flash.
    Assuming that this adventure takes place after the "NEW TEEN TITANS" story arc (#34-37) and before "TITANS AROUND THE WORLD" (#38-41) it's great to see the ONE YEAR LATER Titans: Robin (Tim, before he leaves the team in #67 and become RED ROBIN), Ravager, KID Devil (before he dies in #74), Cyborg, and the Wonder Girl. 
    Throughout the entire his one shot, it brings up an interesting past issue reference from IDENTITY CRISIS and TITANS TOMORROW, but I won't spoil any more details. For all you die hard TIM DRAKE fans, this book will definitely give you shivers down your spines.

      The Teen Titans face off against The Rogues in this untold story. Pros: This one shot does bring back some good (and bad) times of the early Teen Titans. This story is set sometime after the death of Superboy and Flash (aka Bart) and is told in Robin's perspective during a time when Tim is feeling uneasy: Fathers Day. While this is about Robin, it's also about Ravenger as Deathstroke lures the Teen Titans in another one of his mind games.   Despite no Flash or Kid Flash (or speedster at that mat...

      You don't know how long i've been waiting for this, sexy. 0

      Wait! What? *starts panicking like a little kid*, where’s the continuity?! Where and I?!    When am I?! What’s going on!!!........ So for those of you not fluent in panic-eas I’ll try and translate the above into English. Teen Titans: Cold Case dose not take place in current continuity. This one-shot takes place after Identity Crisis and before Final Crisis. Superboy and Kid Flash are still dead, Kid Devil is still alive and Tim Drake is still Robin. So unless you’ve figured that out you’re goin...
