A heroic coming of age special that heads off into brave and bold new territory. Read Full Review

While vastly different from Ben Percy's powerful and lighthearted run on the series, TEEN TITANS SPECIAL #1 introduces a dark and interesting new dynamic to the fan-favorite team. Pushing the team back into the shadows, Adam Glass and Robson Rocha tell a deeply personal and interesting story from page 1. Read Full Review

This special is something I would highly recommend to all Teen Titans fans. It is well written and unlike any Teen Titans comic you have read recently. The art is so good, peaking with Emiko's story being the visual highlight of the issue. It's a must-buy that gives hope to the series finally becoming a consistent and successful title.

As I stated earlier, this should have been three books but I am happy with what I read. Read Full Review

If you like Damian, Emiko, Wally, or just want to see a small glimpse of whats to come in the Teen Titans, Id recommend this special. Its a fascinating glimpse into the lives of villain-like teen superheroes and an intriguing thesis statement for whats to come. Read Full Review

I'm intrigued to see where Glass is going to take these characters so the Special definitely accomplished its goal. This isn't even the Teen Titans of 2016, but maybe that's not a bad thing? We'll see soon enough. Read Full Review

What this issue accomplished was to add depth and backstory to this newly minted or soon-to-be minted team. Subsequent stories will have more perspective because of this special issue. Each character was enjoyable, but I found Damian's story most compelling. I am anxious to see what comes of the cliffhanger ending! Teen Titans Special #1 lived up to its moniker as a special "special" issue. Read Full Review

The issue is well written, and contrasts so strongly with the Titans Special that preceded it. I am glad they were released in this order, as it makes this volume stand out all the more. Read Full Review

Teen Titans Special #1 is a more angry and disillusioned approach to justice, and it has its thumb on the current sociopolitical pulse. These Titans want to see the world made better, and theyre willing to go to extremes to see it happen. Mix the compelling writing of Adam Glass with the great artwork of Robson Rocha, Daniel Henriques, and Sunny Gho, and you have a damn good book well worth recommending. Check it out.

I have no doubt that this will be a controversial issue. Adam Glass does not deliver the Teen Titans story we've come to expect, but I believe he delivers the Teen Titans story we need. Read Full Review

This issue featured Teen Titans characters, however don't be fooled... this is not a Teen Titans story. It is, however, better than most things that have had "Teen Titans" written on the cover in quite some time. Good issue... just not sure it's worth the fiver. Read Full Review

Told in three vignettes this issue makes a strong statement for a more brutal Teen Titans. Read Full Review

It's time for the full Teen Titans team to get together again, but Teen Titans Special #1 was a fun and entertaining break for the characters. Read Full Review

Adam Glass and Robson Rocha do a good job highlighting the mounting unbowed anger from this generation of heroes, hopefully, they can pull it off and survive the experience. Read Full Review

With a new team on the way, led by Damian, these Teen Titans are not going to slap the villains on the wrists. Can the younger generation handle the heat? Read Full Review

I understand the impulse to go back to meat-and-potatoes superheroing, and Glass and Rocha do that well with Teen Titans Special #1 " but I'm not sure if caped comfort food is necessarily what will bring this superteam back to its former glory. Read Full Review

A delightful issue that re-introduces key members of the Teen Titans while giving readers something more than just a primer for what lies ahead. A wonderful look into the minds of three sidekicks at crucial points in their careers. I wish there was a second special to introduce readers to the other lesser known members of the team, but I guess that will just happen in the next issue. Read Full Review

The big question this issue should answer for the reader is whether they should pick up Teen Titans 20. In spite of the flaws of this issue, it's convinced me that I should see what's coming next. I wonder if this book could grow on me, based on the proper motivation given to Kid Flash and the flash-in-the-pan compassion Damian was allowed to show. Read Full Review

Fans of Glass's work on Suicide Squad may enjoy this issue but as competently executed as it is, I personally see little here to encourage me to keep reading Teen Titans. Read Full Review

As a stand-alone comic, it is not enough to satisfy for a special, despite being stand alone. It is good and shows promise for the future. Let's hope the future being built up truly is good. Read Full Review

You could skip this issue and go into the series if you wanted and not miss a beat. Read Full Review

Writer Adam Glass and artist Robson Rocha clearly have a darker vision in mind for these kids, and Rocha's art shines throughout the entire issue, giving life to these new stories. Read Full Review

Teen Titans Special #1 is a solid issue that gets across the direction Adam Glass and DC Comics is looking to take the team. The Robin and Red Arrow segments of this issue help get the reader behind the idea of the Teen Titans working as the anti-Justice League. Unfortunately the strength of this issue presentation of the team's direction is brought down by the story involving Kid Flash. The problems with Kid Flash's segment hurt the overall impact Glass was looking to have with Teen Titans Special #1. In the end that makes this issue hard to recommend to any that is not a hardcore Teen Titans fan. Read Full Review

This is not a good comic by any stretch of the imagination. Read Full Review

Dark-and-edgy tone? Check. Young original outlaw heroes as half the team? Check. No one acting in character? Check. The question is, why would anyone want this? I certainly don't. Read Full Review

While I wasn't expecting Adam Glass to take this kind of direction with the Teen Titans, I can say that I was definitely surprised! I enjoyed how each character was portrayed in this book, even if it may have seemed out of character at some moments. Each story got me more invested, and now I cannot wait to see what the team will be like once they come together! Consider me onboard.

I want to read the next issue like right now!

This issue exceeded my wildest expectations though I'll admit to having had them set pretty low. This is a fantastic comic book. The surprise read of the week. If the series is anywhere near the quality of the special, I can't wait to read it.

Divertido, interessante, dinâmico. Gostei

I have to admit - I wasn't too excited about new Teen Titans, but after reading this issue, I've definitely changed my mind. It's rare to see the damage being a hero could cause, and how good intentions and sticking to the rules may result in the exact opposite. I can't praise enough the choice of characters to lead this narrative, since teens are generally prone to rebellion. We've all been there, don't pretend you haven't.
It's a really promising fresh start, and I look forward to read more about what Teen Titans have to offer now, when they're done listening to their mentors.
Highly recommend.

This will be a team of teen superheroes with some serious, serious attitude. And they don't seem to mess around, at least not anymore.

Did Robin really killed Black Mask? I hope not, because The Big Bad Bat won't be happy.
Queen siblings have no luck when it comes to mothers.
And Kid Flash decides he is a "grown up" and won't take s**t from anyone.

Yeah, I'm interested to see where Adam Glass will take this characters.

Robin Kid Flash & Red Arrow act out of characters

Why did they boringly introduce us to the three characters we already know?
