A review by libralita
Teen Titans, Volume 1: Damian Knows Best by Benjamin Percy

5.0

June 19th Review: Why read new books when I can reread comics? Also god I love the art in the first issue. I wish the art had stayed that way. But I did like the art in the last issue. I think the rest is fine but man that first issue is great. I really love this team dynamic. All the different personalities and powers. It’s so cool. And I’m a sucker for the heroes versus their opposites. It’s great. I wonder when we’ll see Mara and the Demon’s Fist again.

October 23rd Reaction:We start off with Beast Boy partying it up in LA, trying to distract himself from the death of Tim Drake. He then gets kidnapped by a hooded figure.

I forgot how attractive Starfire is. And she gets zapped with an equalist glove.

This art style makes Raven look super adorable.

And finally we meet Kid Flash, who I know a bit from Young Justice and I think he was in the Teen Titans cartoon but I don’t know if this race bent version is different.

We then skip to all four of the Teen Titans are together, captured…by Damien.

Robin: I…I don’t have any friends…not with kind of life I’ve lived.


I don’t think kidnapping people is the way to go about making new ones.

Wow. Where does one get a secret liar that has skull spewing lava?

Oh great, the Demon’s Fist crew are going after our five heroes.

It usually takes me a while to warm up to Kid Flash, but this comic is making me want to look more into his backstory.

Mara is Damien’s cousin. Interesting.

Beast Boy really wants to curse.

Raven: Even the Demon’s Fist understands this. Each assassin chose us as individual targets because of what we represent.
Starfire: Light.
Kid Flash: Hope.
Beast Boy: Super sexiness.


I know it’s clichéd but I really love this camp fire scene.

Okay, the Demon’s Fist crew switch felt a little bit rushed but it was cool to see them work with the Titans.

This was a really fun comic! While I’m still not the biggest Damien fan, he had his moments. I really love the team!
