It’s been 6 years without Didio and DC has yet to produce a readable Titans or Teen Titans run. What went wrong?
>>152132695DC genuinely doesn't know what to do with their young characters, even though they have a TON of them.
>>152132695Teen Titans hasn't been good since the 80s.
>>152132695What are the good post Diddy-O DC comics?I've only heard people say nice things about the Absolute spin-offs.
>>152132695The Titans are more overexposed than ever to the point people know them as gigantic frauds.
They couldn't produce a reliable Teen Titans run with Didio too. The entire Titans franchise is garbage in the comics. The wider fandom outside the comics thinks of them as teens, but in the comics they are all stuck pushing 30.
>>152132695>>152132749Teen Titans has never been good.
The only way to fix the Titans franchise is to reboot back to when Dick is Robin and a teen.
>>152132728I don’t understand this sentiment at all because the only thing they have to do is put a creative team with a vision on it and yet they can’t even do that.Adams and Mercer pitched a team that actually gained attention and fanfare from fans, and then DC proceeded to not approve it while not using those characters anywhere special that would explain them rejecting the pitch. It makes no fucking sense.
>>152132749Teen Titans Year One was good.>>152132874It’s been known that DC hates success and will find a way to sabotage themselves. Once the original overarching plan/story for Absolute ends they’re going to try to come up with a new 2-3 year plan and it’s going to be the worst shit we’ve ever read.
>>152132874A Titans book with a bunch of C to D tier characters was going to last 6 issues at most.
>>152132824Wrong
>>152133237Well no. TT has better brand recognition than that. Damian’s shitty OC team lasted 25 issues despite him being the only notable character and half the roster being OCs.
>>152132695You didn't like World's Finest: Teen Titans?
>>152132695Taylor's run was really frustrating because some of the IDEAS were decent but other ideas came in and bulldozed all over it and then of course Taylor himself is just a mediocre writer at best. The Titans backdoor pilot arc from Nightwing, Brother Eternity, and Beast World could've made a half decent 15-18 volume run had some things been changed.>Backdoor pilotDon't ship Olivia off and change her mom to not be fucking Jezebel Jet. Keep her as the new Lian for the rest of the volume/run.Omit the Superwing shit.Make the Grinning Man more imposing and creepy.>Brother Eternity arcGet rid of him taking Blackfire's place in Starfire's backstory.Just have him be some religious cult leader on Tamaran.Give him a new space/scifi cult instead of taking over Church of Blood.Give him a 2-4 sexy alien underlings so he has reasons to not get his ass beat immediately.Give him more gravitas.>Beast WorldJust make it an arc about an evil alien starfish making everybody a furry.It did not need to be a massive event, all that did was make the Titans look ineffective.Get rid of the Waller shit.>Evil Raven ArcTrash it.Dr Hate should've just been a new character instead of an evil piece of Raven, as the Titans need more powerful villains that aren't Trigon.
>>152132873The best way to fix the Titans franchise is to rip off the Hickman X-Men run.
>>152133928That was pretty good. We need to Return to Haney.
>>152132728Didn't they do a superboy/damian book that made a gajillion sales?
>>152132824This.
