Why hasn't DC ever done a Stranger Things style Teen Titans book?
>>

Why would they?
>>
>>151955072
If you mean a book that takes place back when they were kids, then they've done plenty

If you mean a book that is specifically set during the 80s but does not take place during the New Teen Titans, we're well past that fitting their ages

I mean taking place when they were kids, and it's a horror book.
And what do you mean, plenty? What have they done in the last 20 years besides that World's Finest mini? The Titans Hunt series where they're all 18?

Because DC has no idea what to do with the Titans franchise. It's been a big mess forever. It's obvious it would be better if they could just reboot to where Dick and everyone is high school age again, but they won't do that.

At no point were the TT ever young kids and the NTT era is explicitly when most are post-high school. Your premise doesn't work without massive changes.

Not like those 40+ year old stories are canon anyway. They have all been rewritten. Raven was dead for years and brought back as a teen. Then brought back as a teen again in the New 52 reboot. Now she is an adult but who knows what her history is anymore.

The Stranger Things kids are 12 in S1, right?
Aren't Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad 14ish when they fight Mister Twister?

What does that even mean? You mean like an Elseworld kind of thing? Because part of the appeal of Stranger Things is that the kids are all just normal ass kids and teens, the Teen Titans are superheroes.

Easiest way to rip it off is to use their civilian identities and have them playing a superhero rpg as their heroic alter-egos. Personally I say flip the script. The story is about a bunch of normie kids who find and shelter a superpowered girl as agents of a conspiracy search through their small-town, only to reveal that they're actually superheroes and that the Eleven analogue is also the Vecna analogue.

The Dick and Wally from the Bob Haney era of the Teen Titans in the Silver Age were definitely teens. And their very first story was actually something of a horror story. In fact, some of those early stories did have horror/fantasy, etc. type elements.

But the Hawkins kids were even younger than that when Stranger Things started.

Supernatural horror/mystery coming-of-age story? Seems like really obvious shorthand.
