THE SUPER-SHOWDOWN! It's the Teen Titans versus the Anti-Titans in the melee of the miniseries, with Lilith, Gnarrk, and Mal joining in on the side of our heroes! After the last blow is dealt, the Titans must face something even more uncertain than battle: change. Mal helps Aqualad make sense of his dating dilemma. Bumblebee second-guesses her growing feelings for Mal. Donna must choose between Paradise Island and Man's World. And Robin and Speedy try to reach a resolution.
Mark Waid truly has created something special with the "World's Finest" line and I hope that the excellent ending of Teen Titans, and the issues proceeding it, will open the floor to more modern takes on DC's Silver Age. Read Full Review
With readership down, DC really isn't in position to wrap up one of its stellar comics. Hopefully this break is more of a hiatus than the last time we'll see this iteration of the Teen Titans. Read Full Review
In the series finale, World's Finest: Teen Titans #6 manages to wrap up everything in a satisfying way. Read Full Review
So why did this run click with people in a way all the current runs struggled to? Likely because Waid is a master of both DC continuity and characterization, and made this flashback story feel totally new. Read Full Review
World's Finest: Teen Titans #6 brings the mini-series to a satisfying close with rousing action, genuine heart, and a group that finally feels like they've become a team. Waid's coming-of-age storytelling is pitch-perfect, and the art team delivered an action-packed finale. Read Full Review
Reading World's Finest: Teen Titans #6 has left me with mixed feelings; a blend of admiration and a tinge of regret. Mark Waid's storytelling brims with a potent mix of heartfelt moments, witty humor, and spectacular action, perfectly encapsulating what makes a superhero story truly captivating. Both Emanuela Lupacchino and Mike Norton have outdone themselves, their artistry bringing an electrifying energy to every page. Read Full Review
I've really loved covering this little series. I hope we get to see more Titans stories from Waid. Maybe The Judas Contract or something. Now that I mention it, Lupacchino's take on a Discowing suit wouldn't be unwelcome, either… Read Full Review
This issue marks the bittersweet conclusion of Mark Waid's wonderfully fun adventure that reintroduced a classic teenage superhero team for a new generation. This final chapter delivers a satisfying payoff, full of heart, humor, and action, reminding us why these teenage heroes have endured for decades and hopefully opens up the door for additional reinventions for Golden and Silver Age characters.
Emanuela Lupacchino's artwork shines throughout the issue. Her expressive characters and dynamic action sequences perfectly complement Waid's writing. The fight scenes are thrilling, while the quieter moments are imbued with genuine emotion.
While the first half is a bit cliche, it was done in the best way. The send offs at the end/the epilogue was wonderful. I love the Dick and Bruce talk, the Team line was 10/10. There honestly isn't much I want to say about this issue besides it left me feeling great about the TT. I feel like I jumped back into a time of hope and promise. A time that still believed in a brighter future.
At was great as always.
On the topic of the writer, Waid wrote a great story, but I do wonder how a person so filled with hate and malice for comic reader/the general public can write stories of hope, teamwork and compassion. The man seems to lack all these qualities but can write them well. Maybe he knows what they are and yearns for t more
A lovely end to a lovely series, and another feather in Waid’s cap.
This issue was great and wish we could have had this much fun throughout the series. I understand how he wanted to show there being a rif between the group to have them overcome it by the end, but the previous issues were too much of that and took out my enjoyment.
Waid sticks the landing with this final issue, best issue of the series! And I’m not even a huge fan of this era of Titans, but Waid made me a believer.
I really enjoyed this story. I'm glad Mark Waid wrote it. Ever since the first splash page of this team in the main World's Finest title, I've wanted more. However, I did not care for the artwork or the colors. Maybe I've been spoiled by the incredible work of Dan Mora and Tamra Bonvillain in the main title. The artwork did not have Mora's detail or realism. It is more reminiscent of Phil Hester's chaotic style. The inks were thick. The colors were the worst part. They often appeared washed out. Reds looked orange. There was too much gradation in the colors and the overall pallet did not pop like the work of Bonvillain. Often the art seemed to be filtered in sepia or violet which was not appealing, in my humble opinion of course. If the sammore
