What did you all think about this one? Just got my hands on it today.
Liked:
The Focus on individual characters/struggles
Kid Flash is a brainiac
Beastboy is a perv
Hacker robin
Superboy DNA whaaat
Tower design dope
Brother blood foreshadowing
the whole heroes on teh weekend thing
Meh:
Starfire's 80s hair
feels rushed in terms of emotion and story
wonder girl whiny
Deathstroke felt like a one issue villian with dumb motives.
the useless drama and quarrel with the JL
Overall nice 7/10
Fresh spin on the titans down the road from the animated series which introduced me.
The problem is that it shit on the characters from how they were in YJ but if you didn't read that first you'd probably be ok with it.
Everything about Bart in that run, particularly his transition to Kid Flash, took a complete dump on Impulse, YG, the Flash and essentially every other appearance before it.

To me that seemed more like character development, compared to how Lobdell shit on the YJ 4.
Just finished pic related, can't wait to read the only book with YJ4 in it other than their solos and YJ itself.

Have you read Superboy and the Ravers? It's like a weirdo 90s version of Superboy and the LOSH.
>>89936989
Nah, but I read the series that happened RIGHT BEFORE the New 52 of Superboy. That devolved quickly from /comfy/ to /lore/
>>89937015
I wonder how much having the reboot looming changed the story they wanted to write?
>>89936989
Also, what is general Legion recommended?
>>89937133
Legion Vol 1 has the LOSH fight Ra's al Ghul and it's less of a mess for newcomers. It's where I stared.
Great Darkness Saga is the big must read.
Everyone says Jim Shooter's early stuff is good but fuck Jim Shooter.
Ravers isn't LOSH but LOSH inspired.

What did Shooter do?
>>89937386
He was Marvel's editor in chief and was a dick about things. Writers hated him and when he left Marvel spacenuked Pittsburgh (Shooter's hometown) in continuity.
it was pretty stupid
>>89936989
that was my jam
>>89937386
tried to save Marvel
>>89937485
How did he fail?

I like how starfire looks like a black or Latina girl

He tried to buy back control of Marvel but was outbid by a wall street slimeball.

Young justice was the only other encounter I remember having with Kid flash, and I like this kid better. He is more cunning and intelligent and really speed of mind, vs the YJ one who is just kindove immature. Also I dont really have alot of exposure or knowledge about flash or any of the Justice league. I mostly Just focus on Teen titans. And even within teen titans I am very picky about who I like.

That isn't really how Bart was. Original Bart was the kid who was VR friends with Brainiac 5 because he needed someone who could keep up with him mentally. The modern age characters just had a tendency to be patronizing due to how poorly socialized he was, which was also dialed up a bit in YJ compared to his own book.
>>89937386
He wrote a story that featured possibly the first out gay characters at marvel. They tried to rape the Hulk in a YMCA shower.
>>89936048
Where they trying to make Raven Black?
>>89938176
Just shadow from her cloak.
>>89938129
it happened to him in real life
>>89938319
Why do I get the feeling what actually happened was a couple of fags said hi to him and the dude got so triggered he wrote them as a pair of rapists in his shitty comic?
>>89938473
That seems more likely given his appearance.
>>89938319
No, it happened to a friend (I can't remember his name but He was big in starting the direct market) of Shooter's and he was less afraid of sexual assualt than his comics being stolen.

Why does the blond one look like Peter Berlin?
