"Made in Manhattan" finale! While Wally and Dick are trapped inside Meta Solutions with the raging Mammoth, Psimon reveals that his employers have big plans for Bumblebee! Can the rest of the Titans rally before the Fearsome Five unleash hell on New York City?
RATED T
A satisfying conclusion to a solid three-part arc, “Made in Manhattan” was a great read and arguably my favorite Titans Rebirth story to date. I'm excited to get into “The Lazarus Contract” and see where this set-up is leading, not only here but also in Deathstrokeand Teen Titans. Read Full Review
A great finale to a story arc that introduces a new hero with a new big problem. Read Full Review
Overall, I was quite pleased with this story arc. Bumblebee always had potential, and I am glad to see it finally being put to use. I also liked the tease for the next issue. It's not one of the greatest Titans tales ever told, but it achieved its goals admirably. Read Full Review
In conclusion, I would say this is a satisfying conclusion to an alright arc. I’m really enjoying Abnett’s Aquaman, so it’s a shame that this book doesn’t feel as strong as Aquaman. Hopefully after the Lazarus Contract the book only gets stronger. Read Full Review
Titans #10 is a great read but I definitely recommend going back at least 2 or 3 issues to get the full scope of the story. Dan Abnett hits the nail on the head with the characters in battle this issue! Abnett leaves us on a great cliffhanger that I look forward to reading in the next issue as well. Read Full Review
Dan Abnett wraps up the current story in a satisfying way while at the same time leaving some plot points open for the future, including an upcoming four part event titled "The Lazarus Contract” that will crossover with Teen Titans and Deathstroke. I understand a reader may have hesitation with diving into an event that includes books outside of the ones they may be reading, but I suspect readers of Titans are also buying Teen Titans so the additional investment is not that much. Titans continues to be a fun and action packed series that combines solid writing and art and I'll definitely be reading the upcoming event! Read Full Review
This is a heartfelt thank you to Dan, Brett, Norm, and Andrew. Titans makes me feel like a kid again in the greatest way. Read Full Review
In terms of story, Titans wraps things up well enough but with a loose and open-ended angle to it that makes this just feel like prelude for what's to come. Which isn't bad because it does accomplish a few things along the way, by bringing HIVE back into the picture, putting Bumblebee back on the map (before dismantling her some) and reinforcing the bonds of the team. I'll be curious to see where things go, but I'll also be missing a few pieces thanks to the four-part crossover that kicks off with the next issue and runs through books I don't purchase. This issue may be a bit weak in terms of story for me but it delivers so well on the artwork with such a dynamic and really energetic feeling about it, especially with the color work, that it's worth it just to soak all of that up, especially on a large monitor so that you can really dig into the details. A fun book that knows it can be great but can't quite get there yet. Read Full Review
Abnett isn't letting up on the classic feel of the old Teen Titans saga. An old longtime nemesis is name dropped, but it's the cameo on the last page that will have readers anxiously awaiting next month's issue. Read Full Review
TITANS #10 is based around an epic fight... and not much else, but that doesn't mean it isn't a good read. Smart choices from writer Dan Abnett keep things moving and artists Brett Booth and Norm Rapmund keep the visuals crisp and colorful. A fun issue that harkens back to the classic 90's TEEN TITANS. Read Full Review
Titans #10 was an effect conclusion to the team's conflict with the Fearsome Five. Dan Abnett did a great job in making the Fearsome Five an effective villain team while building towards a bigger future story involving HIVE. Bumblebee's development further enriched the story of this arc as there is another intriguing sub-plot for the Titans to deal with. Read Full Review
While not the strongest issue, the pairing of Booth's kinetically choreographed art with a fan-friendly cliffhanger makes for an easily digestible read. Read Full Review
Titans #10 is a good wrap up, but not as good as I thought it would be. Somewhat anticlimactic but not necessarily bad. It was enjoyable and an average end to a 3-part story. With a 3-book crossover coming up, maybe this was meant to be contextual filler I dont know but Ill accept it. COMMENCE THE EVENT! Read Full Review
Action, fun, and a few surprises are what you can look forward to in this satisfying conclusion to "Made in Manhattan." As enjoyable as this issue is though, all I really want is to get my hands on future issues because those stories look epic! Read Full Review
Our Made in Manhattan story comes to an end in this issue and I have to say....... It felt kind of rushed. Yeah, our heroes ended up fighting like it was their first time out and the way to their victory seemed kind of forced with no real explanation. The best parts of this issue was the art throughout and the setup to get us to our next arc. With that though, this is still a decent issue, I just wish it gave us more. Read Full Review
This issue and the whole Made in Manhattan arc didnt really make a good impression on me. The only purpose it serves is to introduce Karen as a new Titans Member and setup next months crossover event, The Lazarus Contract. Abnett succeeded in making me excited for the future but failed to produce an amazing story in the present. Despite a lackluster arc, I am hopeful and excited for the future. Overall, the issue is a good read, and the art portrays the action well, but it was nothing stellar. Read Full Review
Remember when comics featured interesting Superheroes fighting interesting Supervillains with evil plans? Remember when you got a fight, character stuff and plot stuff all in one issue? Remember when comics were just straight up fun? Abnett does and he makes the sort of comics that have fallen out of popular favor but never out of my heart!
I'm rating this probably higher than I might normally, just because it did what it did so perfectly and gets me chomping at the bit for next month's crossover.
Great finale to the Made in Manhattan arc and we finally get the inclusion of Bumblebee. I hope to this the problems that have occurred over the past few issues, end up resolving themselves.
I want Jinx of the Teen Titans cartoon show so bad
Dan Abnett is the unsung hero of REBIRTH. His books (all of them) read like the classic comics of the late 80's and early 90's that I grew up reading. No event-motivated writing here...just a perfect mix of action, story and character development...all in a single issue! This holds true for all of his books; not just TITANS. Brett Booth,meanwhile, has found,in TITANS, the book he was born to draw (and the colors, as always, are great, too). The only reason this issue didn't get a higher score was due to my inherent dislike of the Fearsome Five.
SCORE: 7.7
the art was FINE and the story was good enough to keep me interested. I'm not the biggest fan of this team or these characters, but I'm trying... it hasn't made me want to "drop" it yet.
