Teen Titans #54 - DC


This really has turned into one of my favorite books out there. I was worried about the creative change. But Sean McKeever and Eddy Barrows really seem to have a grip on things. Plus, they really hit the ground running with this whole Titans of Tomorrow . . Today story-line. They've finally reached the turning point that will decide if this future comes to pass. But in order for them to do it, Ravager, Blue Beetle and Supergirl, all have to die. They were the 3 that stood in Batman's way . . Robin actually . . when he formulated his plan to make the world a Utopia. Of course I'm sure that plan was twisted a bit by Lex's involvement. He claims to be altruistic, but . . . we all know Lex. Also the tides are turned when Jamie convinces Flash to help him fight the Starros. And both Tims have a heart to heart. But when Connor slashes out at the younger Tim, for betraying him with Cassie, the Batman-Tim jumps in to his rescue. Which then changes their future, and they all start to fade away. But, some seeds of doubt have been planted. The mistrust issue with Ravager have been raised again, M'gann has some things to think about, and Red Devil tries to sow some seeds of mistrust regarding Blue Beetle. And of course they know never to get involved with Lex. Right? But in the epilogue we jump 8 years in to the future, where Tim is celebrating his birthday with Cassie. M'gann also joins the party with Lex. Apparently she's gone to him for some reason, and together they try to convince Tim to become the Batman. The issue ends with them looking at about 5 cloning chambers. You can see Connor and Bart, but . . who's the 2 females? Of course . . it's never the end. A fantastic book and a great cast of characters. Like I said . . one of my favorites.
