Teen Titans

Teen Titans Go! #1

Teen Titans Go! #1Given the success of the Cartoon Network show I’m surprised it’s taken this look for DC to put out a Teen Titans Go! monthly comic. In the spirit of the animated series (and allowing DC to release each half issue as a separate digital comic), the new series features two stories set in the Titans Tower. Fans of the cartoon should enjoy the comics’ wacky antics as well.

The first story from writer Sholly Fisch and artist Ben Bates features an investigation into who is stealing Cyborg‘s sandwiches from the Titans refrigerator. Although Robin‘s investigative methods don’t turn up anything, the discovery of Raven‘s demonic pizza monster answers several questions.

The back-up story from writer Merrill Hagan and Jorge Corona plays on Robin’s obsessively-compulsive natures as the Boy Wonder and Beast Boy get into a bet while playing miniature golf. As often happens in the cartoon, the situation gets far out of control and gets the Titans banned from the golf course for life. Worth a look.

Teen Titans Go! - Parasite

Although the rest of the team quickly accepts Starfire‘s (Hynden Walch) new parasite “Perry” growing out of her stomach, who is far more interested in celebrating the Tamaran tradition of Feast Day than her fellow Titans, Robin (Scott Menville) suspects that the telepathic alien means all of them grave harm.

As the Titans start work on building a new project community, which Robin (Scott Menville) changes from a senior center to a pool at the last minute in order to get a look at Starfire (Hynden Walch) in her new bikini, Beast Boy (Greg Cipes) and Cyborg (Khary Payton) become obsessed with finding a way to delay the pizza boy to get a free pizza. With each successful delivery under 30-minutes, the pair of heroes get more desperate and inventive even calling on the assistance of robotic sharks, drones, and even a satellite with a laser cannon.
