A review by depreydeprey
New Teen Titans Vol. 8 by Marv Wolfman

2.0

I don't know how to rate this. Sometime during the last volume Marv Wolfman became his own editor and the series downshifted from great to good. Here, longtime collaborator George Perez leaves the book and Wolfman really seems to go off the rails after the issue 50 wedding of Wondergirl to Marv Wolfman avatar Terry Long. That last sentence should brand this collection as creepy and really their relationship has consistently been the worst part of the series all along so I was dreading the wedding issue but was pleasantly surprised by how well thought out and executed it was. Things go off the rails after that. The lack of editorial oversight really starts to catch up to the series and at times the action and plot lines are often hard to follow and characters disappear for long stretches without any explanation and the whole thing drifts towards a fun but unearned slugfest that concludes the collection.
