Writer Amy Wolfram (Teen Titans animated series) joins rising star artist Karl Kerschl (ALL-FLASH #1, ROBIN) for a colorful reimagining of how the Teen Titans came together! See how these teammates bonded, and overcame the sheer awkwardness of being teenagers in this explosive 6-issue miniseries that guest-stars the Justice League of America! You may think you know Robin, Wonder Girl, Kid Flash and Aqualad…but you don’t really know the original Teen Titans!
"Remember in the long-ago, misty days of 2004 (A.D.), when Teen Titans was the best book DC was publishing? I know, it seems nearly impossible to believe (How is a story where STARRO has a Sinestro ring boring? Is it on purpose?) but it’s true! I heard about it from my great-great-grandfather. It’s only too bad he wasn’t alive (or existed) to see this: a FANTASTIC Teen Titans book, full of fleshed-out, uniquely written teen superheroes who actually behave like teens first, superheroes second. Add in gorgeous artwork from Karl Kerschl and friends and you’ve got a book so good that almost nothing could keep it from perfection. Unless, of course, you like your stories to end, rather than just stop. Like this one does. And then follows it up with a back-up story that just stops. Rather than end. But honestly, there’s no way I’m missing the following chapters, so it’s a small flaw in an otherwise excellent comic."
