    But yeah, if you ignore all of the faults, the Culling turned out to be a fairly cool action story. It's got big fights, solid teamwork, and tense action. And for that it's an exciting read. I wish there was a lot more depth to it, and more time was spent fleshing out the characters, but that has been a problem with Teen Titans since the beginning. I doubt it's going to be fixed anytime soon. Read Full Review

    On art, Ig Guara is okay, but this is not his best work. You only have to look at Superboy's face on the second page to get an idea of how awkward this issue is at points. Now, this isn't entirely Guara's fault. Most of the issue takes place in a featureless landscape populated by characters wearing identical costumes. It's boring to look at, but I don't know that we can blame Guara for that. In reality, this event, right from the very beginning, has been pretty boring. Perhaps we are to blame for hoping the ending would be somewhat exciting. Read Full Review

    Now that the team has been introduced to the readers and the DC Universe I am hopeful stories will be less cluttered than this issue was. If nothing else, there will be dinosaurs in the next issue -- certainly enough to get me to check back in. I just hope the Titans each begin to find their true, teen voices. Read Full Review

    If you look back at my review of Superboy #9 and even Teen Titans Annual #1, you'll see that I was actually enjoying this story more than I have for either series thus far. But this sloppy, uninteresting "conclusion" is so weak, it drags down the entire crossover. Read Full Review

    It is safe to say that I will no longer be picking up Teen Titans " this crossover has been a mess, and I have no motivation to carry on following these characters in single issues. The only redeeming feature of this issue is Ig Guara's art, but that will not save this issue from being a poor end to a poorly conceived crossover that has killed all interest I had in the characters. As a result, I will be reviewing Blue Beetle instead of Teen Titans from now on " at least that book hasn't let me down yet. Read Full Review
