Teen Titans Go! #51 - DC


As you can tell from the cover . . this issue heralds the return of Terra. Kind of. Actually, her brother Brion comes looking for her. In doing so, the young readers of this book, learn a little more about the background of this popular Teen Titan, and he rock-like brother, literally, Brian. He knew that she was in America, and with the Titans. But, he hadn't heard anything about her lately. Beast Boy relays the whole sordid tale to him. After some effort, they finally take him to her school where she's living out her live Terra-free. Supposedly, she has no memories of her days with the Titans or of her history or powers. When she went in to the rock form, after the Titan's fight with Slade, they assume it was a form of cocoon. A way to shelter herself from a world that she didn't like. So now she's living a happy-go-lucky life of a carefree teenage girl. But, I think, there's more going on under there than she's letting on. She doesn't acknowledge Brion's presence, but, I think, she knew he was there. I think there's more in the future for this little girl. I love this book. I love these characters. And I love this imprint on the DC line of books. If you have a young'in that may be interested in comics . . this Johnny DC line is definitely the ones to get for them. They couldn't ask for a better start in to this crazy comic culture.
