Let's see how this team of literal whos fare against Dick's team
>>155216172
>>155216179
>>155216172I can't think of an alliteration, but this is the sort of team that should get the Outsiders/Outlaws title instead with the aesthetic they're going for.
>>155216172>anons always keep saying that teen team books are just mha ripoffs when those types of superhero comics have been around for far longer>this time it's actually true
>>155216187
>>155216203
>>155216215Ok, just three pages and I'm already sick of these obnoxious fuckers.
>>155216172Charlie Kirk died for this
>>155216172They don't get what makes manga characters look cool.
>>155216198Honestly just start ripping off x-men, generation titans, titan factor, titan force, Titans-ecutioners
This reminds me of Mutant Mayhem
The official DC Discord is doing an ARG to promote the book
>>155216203>son of arsenal and CheshireHow old are the original heros if their teen side kicks can have teenage children of their own?
https://xxcheshirecatxx.straw.page/They also got StrawpagesThe bottom of the page links you to the others'Believe it or not, the reception to this has been positive so farReminds me of when Galacta had her on Twitter account
>>155216172When did heroes stop dressing like heroes, and more like casual teens?
>>155216905Because these are teensFashion changes all the timeKids don't want to dress up like their parents
Higgins also did an impromptu Q&A on the DC discord
>>155216203Are they literally and unironically on Discord?
>>155216916I genuinely can't tell them apart
>>155217601Yeah.
If this actually lasts how much are you willing to bet TTG will make a parody?
Jason Todd sucks.Damian is better.
>>155216853It just shows that they care about worldbuilding, and are putting in the effort. They can take it too far and make it cringeworthy, but considering each issue takes about a month it could be worthwhile extra material.
>>155218492Digits of gay interracial rape betray your falseflag tim fag
>>155216853Cute
>>155218613Part of the ARG is that one of the Discord users in the chat is apparently secretly "Jason" and people are already making theories of who it is
>>155218769Tim stats are getting their reprieve in many, MANY years since batman knightfall was released, since it's a faithful adaptation of a story made back when tim was supposed to be cool.
>>155216172>>155216203>>155216806>>155216853I hate to be so negative, but this is so extremely cringy that it physically hurts to read.>>155218004That would be nice, hopefully just to acknowledge how LAME these literally who MHA rejects are and how much this whole thing screeches of "how do you fellow kids".
>>155218938>how do you fellow kidsThing is, it's working The late Gen Z crowd LIKES thisYou're getting old Anon
>>155218975How many will actually buy the book, though?
>>155219515They are hoping jason fans will pick up #1, but after that it will actually depend if it's good.
>>155220135Tall order when the costars are such insufferable little shits. They are specifically catered to the Tumblr/Twitter crowd and those people don't actually buy comics. And I doubt most Jason fans will have enough patience to support this book for long
How old is Jason?
>>155220315Higgins is writing him as being 24
>>155216203Glad the Shazam kids are still around
>>155216807Tbf, it was teen pregnancy even at the time.
Jasonfags are really gonna drag this garbage to 18-24 issues >>155218938>I hate to be so negative, but this is so extremely cringy that it physically hurts to read.I know it'll be hard to find a good one but if DC wants to keep trying to make TT hip and cool they really need to hire a writer under 30. The youngest main TT writer has gotten was Johns back in 2003 when he was 30.>>155216198With how popular Outsiders 2003 nostalgia has been on social media I am surprised that DC hasn't tried to cash in on it and launch an Outsiders book based off that instead of trying to keep it a 50% Batfamily book.Bare minimum Grace, Thunder, Jade, and Roy aren't doing anything and Watters is the most miserable Dick has been since Devin's run
>>155216905Capes are gay unc
I find it funny how Jasonfags were crying when it was first announced since Higgins favorite character is Dick and his favorite Robin is Tim but now they're having the time of their lives since Higgins is having the team shit on Dick a lot.
I think this will be better than Damian's stint on TT but probably not better the the mid 1996 run with Argent
>>155218938I don't think you're being so negative, I think you're being duly critical.If this were a fanfic online it would be one thing.If a writer is going to be paid they should earn it.To begin with I don't think those like Higgins understand the one thing that immediately guts what's supposed to be YA material from meeting the criteria is if the fellow kids go about acting less like inexperienced youths and more like predetermined Poochies.If you look at things like Hunger Games and The Maze Runner the implication they're in over their head sits better with kids because it lets them experience through the material what young lions and wolves and the like do with play fighting; engaging danger from a safe, entertaining space.A world where there's no tension just feels like LARP, in the literal sense not the memetic.Making carefree gen Z memes of someone who ran a crime syndicate and bagged bodies isn't a show of their aura frfr, it instead makes the encounter with Red Hood completely deflated.We know Jason wouldn't lop their heads like drug dealers but, like kids in the Wire who were shook whenever Omar waltzed by, they shouldn't. Not until they see him limping.However related any of them are to adult vigilantes, the world of adults should still be an enigma to them, and Cheshire being the kid of a friend of Jason still wouldn't be enough. For another WIre ref; D'Angelo would talk down to the project kids but never spoke freely about his own Uncle to them and humbled up around him even though he knew he would never harm him directly, because however long he was raised around hardened criminals he was still green.This sort of lack of immersed writing is why the writing in modern comics lacks immersion, if these kids don't treat the DC world with any sense of uncertainty and intrigue, why would a reader?
>>155218938>I hate to be so negative, but this is so extremely cringy that it physically hurts to read.Don't be cuz this is dogshit. DC saw that canceled New Warriors comic and said "hold my beer"
>>155216702Worth it
>>155220300Do Jasonfags even want something like this. Aren't they a combination of fujos and Punisherfags
>>155224259Jasonfags don't know what they want.
>>155220135Meanwhile the Jason antis are trying to meme him into being a pedo worse than Go Nagai manga, claiming Roy should castrate him to prevent him from raping Lian. Dude gets the weirdest character orbiters, love or hate.
>>155223798>>Making carefree gen Z memes of someone who ran a crime syndicate and bagged bodies isn't a show of their aura frfr, it instead makes the encounter with Red Hood completely deflated.People, kids included, make jokes to deflate a serious moment. YA novels can have levity. It's also worth noting that the one who made the initial turn for levity and the picture is the cocksure loudmouth of the group.
>>155216172That's literally just Kiriko from Overwatch
>>155224259The fujo side only cares about quantity, and most anti-hero fans gave up long ago.
>>155224259>>155224807I would imagine fujos would eat this shit up>four teen boys>already have one being the cocky shithead one who is mildly picking on the powerless one
How come Generation Outlaw were less obnoxious little shits?
>>155216797Is that sequel still happening? Kinda weird we haven't heard or seen anything about it yet...
>Jason has white hair againWhat's up with this
>>155225960Jasonfag pandering.
>>155216203>Shit on the original Teen Titans>Want to call themselves the Teen TitansMake it make sense.
>>155221066Barely. Lian was born post-crisis. Roy and Dick were both 20. They artificially aged Lian up in Williamson's Green Arrow when explaining what happened to her after Gay for Justice. She was getting tossed around through time for years.
>>155218492Don’t worry, anon. Once Jason leaves this book for his own solo, Damian can take his spot.
>>155226357Personally i hope he doesn't and remains the only robin incapable of leading a teen titans team, it certainly would make more unique.
>>155216807maybe chesire ran into timey-wimey crap after that rucka series.
>>155226504Too bad Tim will return as Batman’s sidekick again after Bad Seeds, so Damian needs to find something else to do.
>>155218975WRONG!GenZ and younger are terrified of anything cringe besides discord is already a thing of the past for them, it's a millennial thing
>>155225215cute babby
>>155216172Terrible
>>155226614Not while there are millions of streamers that rely on their little gated community.
>>155219515
>>155226614>besides discord is already a thing of the past for them, it's a millennial thingwhat's the new thing?
>>155227305That cover had a run of 900 copies and most were snagged by scalpers
>>155227305>sultry drawing of JasonI’d be surprised if it wasn’t sold out.
>>155227479>scalpersliterally no one wants it why does it have scalpers?>>155227513shut up
>>155227537Is the good stuff and we all know it
>>155227329TikTok comments
>>155222555> Dickfag is obsessed with dicksJasonfags seem to be glad Jason is depicted and acknowledged as young and good-looking.
>>155226614>GenZ and younger are terrified of anything cringe6 7
Huh, so this is how they're revealing more membersOne of the covers teased Sideways
Chances of this book being better than New Titans?
>>155224259No, this is not about what Jason fans fans but what bone DC is willing to throw at them. >>155224880> teens acting like actual teens> baggy clothe designsThe only fujos this has any chance to attract are Jason fujos, and only because this artist depict him as yound and handsome.
>>155218975I'm Gen Z and hated this shit since around 2016. I'm don't think anyone above 17 that isn't female or tranny is reading it, but that's the fans of modern comics beyond normies those days.
>>155218975>Gen Z likes thisAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
DC made a huge mistake calling this the Teen Titans. How long till Deathstroke is trying to fuck Flatline, or they're randomly fighting Brother Blood?
>>155228216anything is literally better than new titans
>>155216172where's beast boy and cyborg
>>155228543On Dick's team.
>>155228543Cyborg is in new titans, starfire in space, beast boy and raven unaccounted for.
>>155216227This feels like DC looked at that retarded New Warriors relaunch from 2020, and went "Ok, now its our turn".Shit is DoA.
>>155226077Goes "hard" means he thinks it looks cool
>>155228543Cyborg hasn't been a teen in 40 years.Beast Boy turned twenty 25 years ago, then got de-aged, then got de-aged again, then got de-aged again, but he's back to normal now. Mid 20s.
>>155228351I'm dead seriousThey're already making fan art of the team on Xitter and are genuinely into the ARG going on
>>155228594The pink-haired faggot hating on nostalgia while hanging out with a bunch of literally whos he met in a discord named after the Teen Titans.
>>155228560>>155228597dang
>>155228405They need an /ss/ villain.
>>155228659this guy's a diddyblud
>>155228603>They're already making fan art of the team on XitterTrannies making fanart on xitter is not gen z
>>155228603Post them.
>>155218975>>The late Gen Z crowd LIKES thisI've not seen any evidence that Zoomers like any comics.
>>155228616>Wonder Girl riding on Robin's shoulders while he surfs at a giant monsterSee this, that's cool as fuck why the fuck can't we get that in modern comics
>>155228941
>>1552203155-6 years younger then dick
>>155228956I know it's very hard to believe but there's been a fandom consisting of zoomers on Xitter and Tiktok that were using sites like RCO to get into comics
>>155229136Read more Mark Waid
>>155224259As someone who actually visits the Red Hood subreddit, lemme tell you somethings:1. Despite Scott Lobdell being a sexual offender and talentless writer, they really like the premise of Jason and Roy being friends despite Roy being a massive antidraw that no Batman reader would ever read about and Jason having no actual reason to associate with Roy. Oh, and that HIV character that has HIV. She’s a Green Arrow character, or an antidraw, like Roy.2. They actually like Jason/Artemis & Jason/Rose as ships despite both ships being surface level pairings that don’t help anyone get over.3. They want Jason to be a killer… despite the fact that DC would never actually let Jason kill a draw like Joker.4. They are very much into Jason getting to be part of the Teen Titans… despite the Titans being a C-Tier team that has not been good since the Crisis, or forty years ago. Had it not been Fatson Todd art, there is no reason to even go there. Just absolutely abhorrent tastes from them.
>>155230903>The Red Hood fandom went from edgy teenagers who didn't read comics to teenage girls (and grown women who want to be teenagers) who meme about Fatson Todd
It's out
>>155228216This book doesn’t has Jon Kent so by default is better.
>>155231254Post spoilers
>>155230362>zoomers on Xitter and Tiktok that were using sites like RCO to get into comicsGuess they's SOL now!
>>155230929And you get other foids who rage about Fatson Todd and say it's promoting eating disorders and that it's as bad as that one rando who claimed he nuked Bludhaven- that they tried to make into a meme much like the more rampant antis make him being a molester of Damian and Mia into one.
>>155230929Fatson Todd is carrying Jason also fucking hard.>>155231402The hell are you talking about
Hilariously, people got mad at the creator of Fatson because she said that she didn't want people who liked characters that she hated to own a Fatson. I believe she was seething about Steph
>>155231451Chinese fujos are a different breed.
>>155231451Pics?
Today I learned about Fatson Todd. Thanks.
>>155231546You should meet the middle eastern Fujos.
>>155230903>Roy being a massive antidrawA "Jannety" if you will
>>155231254Both are zoomer coded as fuck but I'm actually kinda intrigued by Legion (Sherman's art helps a LOT, gives it a Euro comic style. Meanwhile I'm immediately repulsed by Teen Titans OEL style
>>155232236>Teen Titans OEL styleThoughts on the 2003 show?
>>155216807Merlyn and Amanda Waller were fucking with Oliver and the Arrow family for some ill defined reason, every time they got close to reuniting they would be teleported away from each other because of some device implanted in their necks.Lian was rescued from the building collapse that killed her by Waller and sent back in time. And every time she tried to search out her dad she'd get sent away again, so eventually she just gave up and stayed homeless in Alleytown, Gotham. She became one of Catwoman's sidekicks for a bitSo she's vaguely older than she should be
>>155231451What the hell are you talking about?
>>155232210A complete and utter Jannetty. It’s pretty annoying because you can tell that subreddit is made of people with dad problems because they see themselves through Jason and Batman as their lightning rod of hate. It’s stupid because they don’t understand how comic writing and editing works.
>>155232270That one did it right, the book were talking about looks really fucking cynical
>>155216172Who the fuck are they
Damianfags are lucky Morrison gave him a very distinct voice and an edgy backstory. That pretty much saved him from being written like a social media savvy zoomer.
>>155216172Honestly this looks more promising than New Titans that feels like Brombal spends too much time smelling his own farts.I don't understand why DC is pushing two ALL-NEW Teen Titans book at the same time with nearly identical premises, while keeping all the most well-known Titans characters in limbo though. It's extremely dumb, can you imagine Marvel making an X-Men line without Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, Xavier, Jean Grey and Magneto?I'd be surprised if New Titans isn't cancelled by issue #50.
>>155233032Oh, Damian got it good. He had Grant Morrison and Peter Tomasi writing him: the former built him, and the latter fleshed him out by channeling his own fatherhood experiences raising a son. In comparison, Jason got fucking Judd Winick and Scott Lobdell.
>>155231254More interested in Legion
>>155230903You forgot 5. They’re delusional hypocrites who don't even know what they want.
>>155226077>thinks goes hard is an insult>doesn't understand modern slang.You probably think "ate" means something literal if they said that lmao.
>>155228203The boom? Isn't Judy a recently made character? Why is she being the titan speedster over someone who friend with Lian and been getting teased in being in a teen team multiple times? Poor Irey west.
>>155234884Gotta make use of one of Johns' many OC spam creations, even if he made Irey too.
>>155233256Jason also got Morrison making him a literal redhead stepchild, and Tony Daniel who admitted to hating him and pulling an "Armageddon 2001" in revealing Gunbats to be him and not Michael Lane as originally planned coupled with that weird suggestion he was raped in his youth and that's why he was so broken and demented.
>>155222555Jason fans have been in shambles since that one tranny writer tanked his/her Jason book by talking dumb political shit on xitter
>>155234936I thought Mark Waid made her back in Kingdom come. Tho John did make Jai west. Still 20 years later and they're just stuck in the background after all this....
>>155234936Thanks for reminding me that John’s went out with a bang of hackery, didn’t he also created a new Aquaman that was appearently the og Aquaman or something like that?
>>155233032>That pretty much saved him from being written like a social media savvy zoomer.He was invented before or during early social media that is what saved him not Morrison specifically
>>155235118Jason was in shambles before that, retard. Remember Robin Lives?
>>155235119Yeah, it would be a matter of question if Johns' version of Iris/Irey counts as the same as Waid's.Waid envisioned Iris and Barry's mom to be Angela Margolin, apparently, explaining why they were both white kids. Meanwhile, despite Jai initially being a redhead, they decided to give him his mom's genes while keeping Irey the redhead.
>>155235124Yes, no one's really done anything with him though. Guessing he might've done that Golden Age Aquaman as a potential outlet to utilize the scrapped Infinitor Blue Dolphin, who was to be his daughter, much like how he made the scrapped gay male Harlequin canon.
>one-to-five girl-boy ratioFucking sausagefest.>>155216702Stop trying to put a positive spin on everything.
>>155235948Flatline is in this series She's just not in the first issue for some reason
>>155235162I think since the era of Starlin, you could sum up Jason as that meme of the dog being flipped off by a bunch of guys.>dumb image of "Jaybin" in the center>hands labeled "Jim Starlin" "Denny O'Neil" "Marv Wolfman" and others as you'd know, etc.
>>155235974>"Jim Starlin" "Denny O'Neil" "Marv Wolfman"Those guys were such dweebs. For crying out loud, their jobs were to make comic books for children.
>>155235948>>one-to-five girl-boy ratio>Fucking sausagefest.I wonder if it would have made more sense had Steph led this while Jason was butting heads with Dick.Narrative wise, in terms of draw I think it would have given this more trouble keeping notice.
>>155216172Poor Jason and Steph. Imagine going from being Batman-oriented, the most lucrative real estate in DC Comics, to the Titans. The fucking Titans, a team that hasn't been good since the mid-80s. That's like being a head of department at, idk, Texas Instruments, and then deciding that your skills would be of better use doing shifts at the local Goodwill. What the hell is wrong with this editorial? We've seen Steph at her peak before; this isn't it.
>>155234884She was with Lian and Fairplay in the DCKO Kids Are All Fight issue that was set up for this bookIt also had Jon Kent, Yara Flor, Static and a Batgirl, so it seems to have set up the other Titans book too
>>155236159Steph is never allowed to catch up for long. Any shining moment she has gets rolled back into her being the silly girl, the incompetent in Batfamily standards, too impulsive, ontologically evil according to those like the Solemini wanker, and so on.She could be in a worse situation like Bette Kane, but best not to invoke that.
>>155236159Spoiler sucks bro. She’s lucky to still be relevant at all
>>155232410>looks really fucking cynicalHow?The artist has always drawn like this
>>155236198Nobody wants Steph as the Spoiler; they want the return of 2009 Batgirl.
>>155235970The kids were looking for her, isn't that the premise?
When will DC change this costume? Is pure ass
>>155232270>Thoughts on the 2003 show? s'okay
>>155232394> wwaah don't hate my bat-daddy> writing/editing comic writing is hard, pls understandSound like you're badly coping with your issues as well. The nature of DC industry will never be an excuse for the shits they wrote.
>>155236710No they're looking for someone else. Flatline will show up much later.
>>155216203I thought Fairplay was supposed to autistic and antisocial and needed Quiz Kid's help to open up to others or something That was kind of a nice dynamic honestly, guess he's just generic black kid here though
>>155234884>>155235119DC replacing Irey/ Jai with a bland, uninspired white chick with no history. I don't get it. Who is genuinely excited for this character? I've noticed the twins also aren't playing any meaningful role on the Flash book either. Who at DC hates them so much?
>>155234830See >>155228616, fool. Or read the scene through to the next page.
>>155236398Not really she as Batgirl is just blonda babs but dumber
>>155236194The bird shaped drones are an interesting tech upgrade for herI wonder if she'll keep them or if they'll get ignored by later writers like the stealth suit or the gooparangs
>>155239796Currently at DC no one knows how to write the flash, as someone who grow up on post crisis Wally West they have no clue what to do with the character, most crossover events just killed and resurrected them, Barry, Wally and Bart then abandoned them
>>155239796>I've noticed the twins also aren't playing any meaningful role on the Flash book either. Who at DC hates them so much?North had this same problem in his FF run but recently started using the kids. Just hope it happen with Flash too.
>>155239087Who is excusing them, retard?

They should use more of the Titans academy characters
>>155216172Why do modern characters have this smug smirk as their default expression?
>>155241710Anime face
>>155241710Because teens these days are cocky and got no respect toward their elder. They'll say anime face but this is pure delinquent behaviors.
>>155241870Jason Todd and his team of teen delinquents
>>155241870>teens these days are cocky and got no respect toward their elder. To be fair that is said every generation
>>155241306They need to whore Jason out more to sell books.
>>155242348I don't know he ain't a big selling point compared to the Titans brand
>>155216187It's kinda annoying that everything's on z sliding timescale. Why is Jason "younger", how young is he? He should be like 27 at this point
>>155242348They should whore out Lian and Flatline. They're the only cute chick's in the comic and they can't make them even more sexier?
>>155242382He’s closer to Tim’s age than Dick’s.
>>155241306Spokes is such a shitty character designer, who the fuck carries guns on his abs?
>>155242348I feel like DC is retarded and petty enough to not learn anything from that. >>155242382Lol, lmao even. He's 2-3 years older than Tim and only because Jason got magically aged up to die at 14-15 instead of 12.
>>155242428Back in the day DC weren't really afraid to make sexy teenage heros. I mean look at starfire and raven and they're widely popular. Dc should have fanservice that include for the young heros.
>>155243243>I mean look at starfire and raven and they're widely popular.They don't even look like teenagers, pedo.
>>155243307Teenagers were drawn differently back then. Other than that theres also the cartoon. Hard to deny that dc made them hot.
>>155216179alex and vella
>>155243013Yeah, the Batman editor was pretty adamant that Jason was meant to be 12 at the time. A playing card game released after his death claimed 13, but Jaybinfags have noted with Tim being the anti-Jason and improved and cooler, having Tim be 13 as the "teen wonder" and not a "boy" was yet another of the tweaks to make him appeal to the current audience.
>>155243536George Perez pretty much treated older teenagers as already being mature enough, has to do with the aesthetics and expectations then and wanting to have them be ready for adulthood. Couple that with him deciding to draw Raven more stylized and her looking like a frail old lady at 18, and the art does look unbelievable.
