Teen Titans Go! #50 - DC


What a fun book. Private Hive is back this issue. But now he's called Private Hive. He was the evil Captain America type figure that was part of the Hive Five. But he's struck out on his own. And his first order of business is to take down . . . and apart . . the Teen Titans. First he builds a large cadre of acolytes, and then he sends them out to do little random attacks all over the globe. The purpose is to tie up all the Titans around the globe so they'll have no kind of support structure. But luckily . . or unluckily . . . Robin is quarantined to the Tower because of his outbreak of chicken-pox. So he's there when Private Hive decides to try to take the tower for his own. Of course Robin defeats him, and in the process he has an epiphany. "We're already global, but we need to continue to expand the team. And here are some potential new recruits I'd like to discuss with you guys . . . . Cyborg . . how would you like to run a Teen Titans "boot camp" to train new recruits? Actually, we all have to help in our own way to make this work . . . but I think you'll all agree that with new team leaders, towers and recruits . . . the future of the Teen Titans is unlimited!" So will we be switching from Teen Titans Go! . . . to Teen Titans Unlimited? It's a good idea actually. I guess we'll just have to wait to see where it goes from here. This is a fantastic series, and the kids really love it. Some of us grown-ups too.
