While only a modest success with its original incarnation, the series became a huge hit with its 1980s revival, under the stewardship of writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Pérez. That year, the two relaunched Teen Titans as The New Teen Titans, aging the characters to young adulthood and featuring a level of complex storytelling and character exploration unheard of from DC Comics at the time. However, the departure of George Perez from the book, the launch of a direct market-only Titans book and Marv Wolfman's own creative burnout; influenced partially by the departure of his longtime collaborator Perez; and editorial interference ^{[citation needed]} left the franchise decimated and the series canceled in 1995 after 130 issues.

Publication history

Original Incarnation

The genesis of the Teen Titans lays in the events of The Brave and the Bold #54 (July 1964), where Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad first teamed up to defeat a weather-controlling villain known as Mr. Twister.

In The Brave and the Bold #60, the group officially debuted with the team officially named “The Teen Titans” and sporting a brand new member: Wonder Girl. The character of Donna Troy (Wonder Girl) was created explicitly for the Teen Titans group, as Wonder Woman had no teen sidekick at the time, though the name “Wonder Girl” itself had been regularly used for a variety of flashback tales of Wonder Woman's childhood exploits at the time. Readers never saw Donna Troy join the team, though in the story “Who is Wonder Girl?”, Marv Wolfman revealed that Donna had joined the group shortly after the defeat of Mr. Twister and was the one responsible for coming up with the “Teen Titans” name for the group, unconsciously inspired by her post-Crisis tenure as a young charge of the Titans of Myth. The Brave and the Bold is a DC Comics comic book that is currently in monthly publication in a second volume. ... Donna Troy is a fictional character, a superheroine in the DC Universe. ...

After a final appearance in one of DC's anthology comic books, Showcase #59, the Teen Titans were spun off into their own series, with “Teen Titans” #1, cover-dated February 1966. A showcase is a performance or exhibit highlighting the work of a performer or group of performers, a particular culture or ethnic group, or of a nationality. ...

The series' original premise revolved around the Teen Titans helping teenagers, answering calls from around the world. Their first set of stories included saving a town from a band of thieves who were impersonating a popular surf-rock band while committing their crimes, helping a teenager's burglar brother reform, investigating international teen tension at the Japanese Olympics and vindicating a teenager who claims interdimensional aliens were infiltrating his high school. Green Arrow's sidekick Speedy also soon joined in Teen Titans #4 (and was later given “founder status” along with Robin, Wonder Girl, Aqualad and Kid Flash). Additional team members were created for membership, most notably Lilith Clay^[1] and Mal Duncan.^[2] Other existing heroes such as Hawk and Dove,^[3] a duo of teenaged superpowered brothers while Beast Boy of the Doom Patrol made a guest appearance seeking membership (though he was rejected for being too young at the time).

The theme of teenagers learning to take on adult roles and responsibilities was common throughout the series. The series explored (though not too deeply) then current events such as inner-city racial tension and various protests against the Vietnam War. One storyline beginning in issue #25 (February 1970) saw the Titans deal with the accidental death of a peace activist, leading them to reconsider their methods. As a result, the Teen Titans briefly abandoned their identities to work as ordinary, powerless civilians, but the change was unpopular with fans and was quickly abandoned. Along the way, Aqualad was removed from the series and the character of Mr. Jupiter, who was Lilith's mentor and employer, was introduced and financially backed the Titans for a brief period.

1970s revival

Teen Titans #50, with the majority of the Titans of that era.

A few years after its cancellation, the series resumed with issue #44 (November 1976), but struggled to find focus. The few stories from the brief revival included the introduction of the African-American super-heroine Bumblebee, the introduction of the “Titans West” team, consisting of a number of other teen heroes including Bat-Girl (Betty Kane) and Golden Eagle, and the introduction of Joker's Daughter in Teen Titans #48. The revival was short-lived, and the series was canceled as of #53 (February 1978). Tellingly, in the last issue the heroes realized that, now in their early 20s, they had simply outgrown the "Teen" Titans. In the last panel, without speaking, they sadly go their separate ways.

The villains' motivations are often complex, following trends that were coming to a head at that time towards greater depth in comics , particularly in the case of Deathstroke the Terminator, a mercenary who takes a contract to kill the Titans, in order to fulfill a job his son is unable to complete. This leads to the Titans' most complex adventure in which a psychopathic girl named Terra with the destructive power to manipulate earth and all-earth related materials infiltrates the Titans in order to destroy them.

"Who is Donna Troy?" depicts Robin investigating Wonder Girl's true identity (#38) and "We are Gathered Here Today..."

New Teen Titans and the Uncanny X-Men

The brainchild of writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Pérez, New Teen Titans was widely thought of as DC's answer to the increasingly popular Uncanny X-Men from Marvel Comics: Both series featured all-new members and depicted young heroes from disparate backgrounds whose internal conflicts are as integral to the series as is their combat against villains.

A second series: New Teen Titans (vol. 2)

New Teen Titans fans experienced some title and numbering confusion in 1984, when the title was relaunched with a new #1 issue as part of a new initiative at DC informally referred to as "hardcover/softcover." The New Teen Titans, along with Legion of Super-Heroes and Batman and the Outsiders, were the first (and ultimately only) titles included in this program, where the same stories would be published twice, first in a more expensive edition with higher-quality printing and paper distributed exclusively to comic book specialty stores, then republished a year later in the original low-budget format and distributed to newsstands. The original numbering of New Teen Titans was renamed Tales of the Teen Titans (not to be confused with the earlier limited series), while a new concurrently published series named The New Teen Titans launched with a new #1. After both titles ran new stories for one year, the former book began reprinting the latter's stories for the newsstand, continuing until the "hardcover/softcover" idea was abandoned after Tales of the Teen Titans #91.

Issue #1 of the direct market New Teen Titans created controversy when Dick Grayson and Starfire were depicted in bed together, although it had been established for some time that they were a monogamous couple. Pérez left the series after New Teen Titans vol. 2, #5, and the series began to flounder as Marv Wolfman got into disputes with DC over a proposed ratings system,^[6] and other writers contributed from time to time. José Luis Garcia Lopez followed Pérez as artist, and Eduardo Barreto contributed a lengthy run. Pérez returned as co-plotter/penciller with issue #50, the series again being renamed, this time to The New Titans, as the characters were no longer teenagers.

Pérez remained as penciller with the book through to issue #55, 57 and 60, while only providing layouts for issues 58-59, and 61, with artist Tom Grummett finishing pencils and Bob McLeod as inker.

Jurgens' run was unpopular with readers due to the use of new characters that had no ties with previous incarnations of the team. The new characters were created due to an editorial ban preventing Donna Troy, Nightwing and Raven from being used in the book.^{[citation needed]}

In an attempt to boost sales, a contest was held in the letter pages to determine who would join the team. Robin (Tim Drake), won the vote, but editors on the Batman titles banned Robin from appearing in the Teen Titans, forcing Jurgens to use Captain Marvel, Jr. instead.^{[citation needed]} The inclusion of Captain Marvel, Jr failed to boost sales of the title, which was then canceled.

The Teen Titans during One Year Later. Cover art to issue #34 by Tony Daniel.

In the one year jump after Infinite Crisis, Robin has returned to the Teen Titans after a year of travel with Batman and Nightwing. Feeling abandoned by Robin following the death of Superboy, Wonder Girl has quit the team and has been working alone, fighting the Brotherhood of Evil. Starfire is missing in action, never having returned from her journey into space. Raven and Beast Boy have split up: Raven's whereabouts are unknown, though she is rumored to be in Russia; and Beast Boy has left the Titans to join the new Doom Patrol. Joining him in the Doom Patrol are former Titans Bumblebee and Herald (renamed Vox). Speedy is said to be currently on an island with Connor Hawke. Kid Flash, who had aged into adulthood and lost his powers, is "kind of retired", according to Robin and has now become the fourth Flash. Cyborg has been damaged and inactive since his return from space, but 16-year-old genius fraternal twins Wendy and Marvin, have repaired him and given him new abilities. New members include Kid Devil and Rose Wilson (as Ravager), the latter of who was accepted at the request of Nightwing. One Year Later event logo. ...
