At the gates of heaven itself, the Teen Titans must battle Djinn's older brother Elias with the fate of the world hanging in the balance! But victory comes at a terrible cost-because one of the Teen Titans won't be making it back!
I can't fault Teen Titans #41 at all really. My one criticism was maybe only a personal one, due to the slight similarities to another title, but then again, no plot is entirely unique these days anyway. I'd recommend brushing up on back issues as after such a gap, it's a heavy plot to get lost in, if you don't remember much from #40. As usual though it's this series consistency that's the real winner. Great writing and art, as always. Read Full Review
Teen Titans has been a resurgent DC title and it's been much improved. Hopefully the next arc keeps that momentum rolling. Read Full Review
While I didn't receive the ending I wanted, I still got a brilliantly written and visually impressive piece of entertainment. I'm fully invested in these characters, and their futures. Read Full Review
Eduardo Pansica does great work with the art in the issue. The characters look great and the action in the fight against Elias is amazing. Read Full Review
Teen Titans #41 shows the writers of this book running on fumes, as "Djinn Wars" comes to an all-too-easy conclusion and the characters keep circling back to their inherent mistrust of Robin, who in turn continues to be stuck in neutral right now as well, unable to admit his mistakes. A once-great book that has apparently run out of ideas, the art is stellar, but that's about it. Read Full Review
As a wrap up to the Djinn Wars arc this issue was enjoyable. Djinn's own personal journey was great to see, and her fight against Elias was well done. She really got to take center stage here as both the leader of the action and as the moral compass. Despite the messy ending to the issue itself, the team worked together well, and I enjoyed many of their interactions through the title. If you're looking to finish off this particular arc, or enjoy some surprise drama this issue is for you. Read Full Review
Teen Titans brings "Djinn Wars" to an action-packed conclusion, but if the series wants to stay relevant, it needs to blaze a bold new trail from here. Read Full Review
While I was initially really excited about this arc because of not only reintroducing Jakeem Thunder to the Universe but how it was going to explain more about Djinn and her reasons behind joining the Titans in the first place, we end this story with a complete whimper, where nothing is really explained or really really talked about. All the interesting aspects are pushed aside just to get to an ending and by the end the only really great parts of this issue come from the art. Read Full Review
Twenty issues in, there's still no sense of teamwork or friendship. We'll see what Robbie Thompson does when he goes solo, but this book desperately needs a new dynamic. Read Full Review
Prelude:
Teen Titans was passable last issue, but man the review scores do not look good. Here we go.
The Good:
Nothing.
The Bad:
Well that was an extremely cliche solution.
Time for another team that has fallen apart arc. Hang on, hasn't this happened already?
Conclusion:
Look, it's an issue but I just felt nothing reading it.
This was very underwhelming.
What even was that?
Messy and rushed conclusion to a messy run whose only purpose seemed to be to ruin the character of Damia Wayne.
An incredible waste of time, this is not a team story, it is the story of how much Adam Glass hates the character of Damian
