Jon Kent always wanted to be a Titan when he grew up, but now that he’s working alongside them in the effort to evacuate Earth, he didn’t think he’d be stuck babysitting young sidekicks! When the kids sneak off to enter the fray and stop Granny Goodness, Jon will have to show these young heroes the ropes so they can save the day and prove there’s no age requirement to being a superhero—and you won't want to miss the SHOCKING finale!
This oversized issue packs an arc's worth of story into around 30 pages, and it's some of the most fun I've had reading a DC comic in a while. The Teen Titans are one of the last franchises that has never quite recovered from the changes of the New 52, and this book might not be the start of a new run, but it's the kind of model that the franchise needs for a breath of fresh air.

Jon Kent goes from Superman to Super Chaperone as a group of children attempt to set into the DC K.O. chaos with this special. Adams throws a few looks into play with the writing. Mercer and Dalhouse level out the drama with solid action. The guest star is worth the price of admission alone but stay for the whole story. Check it out! Read Full Review
DC K.O.: The Kids are All Fight Special Issue 1 heralds a new generation of young justice. It's not a flawless tie-in, but it's a fun side from the main event that involves one of Darkseid's most evil generals. Read Full Review
DC K.O.: The Kids Are All Fight Specialis a fun read for fans of young hero teams and anyone following the broader KO Tournament and Titans storyline. It balances humor with genuine peril and a lot of heart. Read Full Review
Despite having little connections to the main K.O. event, The Kids Are All Fight is a fun read and a great introduction to the next generation of DC heroes. Read Full Review
DC K.O. has been killing it, taking the simple idea of a tournament arc and using it in the smartest way possible. The tournament isn't the story; the story is how the tournament affects the fighters. DC K.O.: The Kids Are All Fight Special #1 keeps this up, with writer Jeremy Adams kicking the issue off with Jon Kent wanting to join in the fight somehow, feeling overlooked. Much like DC K.O. and December's Fight Month, this issue is all about what this tournament means for Jon. Meanwhile, Fairplay, Quiz Kid, the Boom, and Cheshire are all going through the same thing and find something for themselves, some way for them to help. Those are the inciting incidents for this story, and they fit. Read Full Review
DC K.O.: The Kids Are All Fight Special #1 takes a compelling setup and flattens it into rushed action beats that serve plot mechanics instead of character moments. Every theme introduced gets abandoned for the next exposition dump. Every young hero introduced gets treated as background furniture in their own story. The climactic battle proves they're ineffective. The rescue by a stranger proves they're unnecessary. And the ending promises to do it all again next time. Skip this one. Read Full Review
This was a lot of fun.
I wanted good things from this book. I love Jeremy Adam. I like all the characters. This book sucks cause it’s a jumbled mess. Expositions dumps galore. Started and abandoned plots. I regret buying this and Jeremy Adam either hits home runs like he so often does Or strikes out.
