Didn't like the first story. I felt it was fairly useless in many senses, but other than that it's quite good.

I had a hard time keeping track of all of the characters, timelines, and crises tie-ins in the first arc, but the second arc was more my style.

Not my favorite arcs, but still super fun!

Lot of good stuff in this book, and I'd rate it higher had I not been an idiot and read the first three volumes before this one (though to be fair, there were library stickers covering up the volume number.) The Legion part confused the hell outta me, but the rest was fabulous. Good work from Geoff Johns, as always. I'll reread this as soon as I read the other three.

It took me some time to get into this one. At the beginning of this collection, the Titans go to the future where they have to help the Legion of Super-heroes defeat the Fatal Five Hundred. That bit was just - overcrowded and not very engaging for me. But when they attempt to return to the present, they land ten years in their future instead - and they meet their future selves, which Superboy describes nicely by saying, "We're jerks! We're psychos!" Both this and the first story feel a bit unfinished, but this one at least was more interesting because of their different future selves.
It's not until the second half that it really got good though. The Titans - and Robin especially - are dealing with what happened during "Identity Crisis". Basically the latter half and the good parts of the first once again capture the essence of what it is to be a Titan, illustrating why they're different than the Justice League (they're family and they actually talk about stuff). I especially liked Tim's apprehension of turning into Bruce/Batman.
So yeah, in the end I liked it a lot better than at the beginning, and it has a bit of bonus!Nightwing.
