Titans Question

[grayhank]

I'm about 4 years behind in my reading and I just picked up Titans #1. Was just sitting down to start reading it and saw that it was Part 2. Can anyone tell me where part 1 is, rather than me having to dig through over 1000+ unread comics to find it? Thanks!

There's a Teen Titans #0 that was a Wizard exclusive, I think. Maybe that's it? I have it around here somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it up and figure it out.

There was a Titans #0 ... I think that issue mostly had some sorta mini Story about the Comming of Ravanger,.. DeathStrokes Daughter. It was real short,.. maybe 15 Pages or so. I think thats why issue #1 is part 2... Because if I remember correctly Ravager & DeathStroke are the main baddies in the 1st couple if Issues,.. & it's because of DeathStroke that Bart Allen (Impulse) Becomes KidFlash.

It's been so long since I read those books..., I can't remember anything... I know before the series Kicked off,.. there was a 3 issue Series where the Titans Fought CyborgSuperman,.. & CyborgSuperman Killed Donna Troy,.. but then ofcourse a few yrs later she came back.

Ok, I think we're talking about different Titans series.

I'm talking about the one that just started two weeks ago. Not the Teen Titans. But "TITANS" with Nightwing, Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, Troi, Flash, Changeling and Arsenal. This first issue starts as "The Fickle Hand Pt 2". I can't seem to find part 1. I've looked through Nightwing, Teen Titans and Countdown...not sure where else it might be.

Part 1 was in The "Titans East Special" from last fall....

[grayhank]

Thanks Anthony! That appears to be the one I'm looking for ! Same Titans' Logo. Guess I have to start digging through my comic piles to find it.

When you said you were about 4 yrs behind on your reading,.. thats why Joe & I were thinking Teen Titans,.. the 1st issue is about 4 yrs old & they are on issue 58 now.

[grayhank]

Yeah I realized that ...sorry I worded it wrong. I meant I just picked up issue #1 of the new series.

[The Toyroom]

^ Actually it's closer to 5 years

I'm losing interest in the Titans myself...I don't care for the new characters in "Teen Titans" and I won't touch the "Titans" book with a ten-foot pole as long as Winn-hack is writing it.

[BlackKnight]

I can't stop buying right now,.. even though with the AfterMath of Crisis ,.. the book & team got somewhat Screwed Up. But I love Kid Devil, Ravager , Tim & WonderGirl. I hope something happens soon that can justify me buying the book.....

I haven't got the Titans #1 yet... But did get the Special. I liked what I read,.. & gotta give Titans a Shot. Hell, NightWing's back with the Titans. Nuff Said. It can't be all bad.

[grayhank]

Finished reading...I think it's a keeper! But have to say that the overall plot line in this 1st issue to get the gang back together has been done so many times that it's becoming a cliche. Other than that, it's certainly got potential!

Think Nightwing will stay in Titans once he's The Batman?

[BlackKnight]

Think Nightwing will stay in Titans once he's The Batman?

Is that who going to be Batman ? Or is it Earth2 Robin or Jason ?
If it's Dick,.. I guess he will be hanging with Batman & the Outsiders again.

After reading Morrison's hadicapping of the contenders, I'm pulling for Dick. (Man that doesn't soud right ) His description of him as a less grim and wisecracking Bats, ala Peter Parker would be fun. And with King Tut being retconned into the DCU, that would go well with a more lighthearted Dark Knight.

[BlackKnight]

I just don't think they will give the mantel of the Bat to Dick..., atleast not if they read what they previously write. In the Aftermath of KnightFall,.. somewhere's around there... Dick had the Batsuit of a few,.. & I remember it not being a great expirence for him.... Who Knows,.. the whole Idea is crap.
