A rare night off for the Teen Titans turns into a disaster when partygoers begin to mutate into bizarre, uncontrollable animals! Is this the work of Brother Blood? Or someone even more deadly?
I really enjoyed this issue. It's complete as a contained story within an issue. At the same time, it ties past issues together for a big reveal. The writing is good, the art is crisp. The issue seems to move forward or at least add flesh to current storylines. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this issue. Read Full Review
It's a random enjoyable issue floating in a see of general malaise. Rebirth is still coming, so it's not like this issue will make any sort of difference in the series. It's just an island of comic book OKness, an acceptable purchase that lets writer Scott Lobdell go out on a high note. Which I guess is fine. Nice of DC to give him the opportunity. Read Full Review
In totality, TEEN TITANS ANNUAL is not the best example of a TEEN TITANS book, nor is it the worst. It could best be likened to an over-inflated monthly. In some cases, it works, but in this situation, the added elements don't feel necessary to the story and muddle its punch. At the end of the day, despite its strengths in art and characterization, TEEN TITANS ANNUAL is largely a forgettable endeavor. Read Full Review
It's Friday night and the Teen Titans are stepping out to do some disco dancing! It isn't long before some bad shit goes down and they are on the defensive. But that's taken care of even quicker when Red Robin and Beast Boy find the culprit behind everything and knock her into next week. This story goes nowhere, slowly, and much of it seems like padding. Some of the art is okay, but the real shining star of this issue is the colorist. Which goes to prove how crummy this comic actually is. Read Full Review
The good points. I enjoyed the action here, as it was fun to see the Titans use their powers to fight these creatures. It was also great to see Tim Drake as a detective. He relied on his powers of observation and deductions to solve the problem even though he was able to solve the problem a little too quickly. Unfortunately we are left with emo Tim Drake at the end of the issue. Read Full Review
If you have been reading Teen Titans the whole time, you need this to round out your collection. If you are looking for a great team book, pick up the revamped Rebirth edition of both Titans and Teen Titans. Read Full Review
If you're apprehensive about reading this because of Scott Lobdell's previous work on the property, there's plenty here to validate your concern. There's some surprisingly good things, too, but at best, Teen Titans Annual #2 is just okay, and not worth multiple readings. And with the book as we know it ending after September's issue, there's no pressing reason to spend your money on a forgettable story. Read Full Review
