List of Teen Titans comics


Various superhero groups by the name Teen Titans have been published in comic books by DC Comics since 1964.

Comics publication history

''Teen Titans'' (1964–1978)

The first incarnation of the group unofficially debuted in The Brave and the Bold #54, before appearing as "The Teen Titans" in #60, and again in Showcase #59. These appearances led to a comic of the same name which ran until 1972/1973, when it was cancelled with issue #43. Briefly revived in 1976 for a further 10 issues, the series was again cancelled after #53 told the team's origin for the first time.

Key team

The original Teen Titans team consisted of the sidekicks to DC's Batman, Flash, and Aquaman — the first Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad. They were joined in their second appearance by Wonder Girl, erroneously presented as Wonder Woman's sidekick.

''New Teen Titans'' (1980–1988)


The series was relaunched with the prefix "New" in an issue cover-dated November 1980. Written by Marv Wolfman with art by George Pérez, both of whom had recently moved to DC from Marvel, this incarnation would prove to be arguably the best-known and most-popular comics incarnation of the Titans teams. The book took on "modern sensibilities," and addressed a number of hard-hitting issues, including a memorable couple of special anti-drugs issues.
Previewed in DC Comics Presents #26, the New Teen Titans series ran for 40 issues, before changing title to Tales of the Teen Titans between issues #41 and #91. To capitalise on the series' success, DC launched a separate New Teen Titans title concurrent to the renamed Tales... title on better-quality paper. After several months featuring twice as many new Titans stories, Tales of the Teen Titans #59 turned that title into a reprint comic, with #60–91 reprinting the second series at a delay of about 15 months from issue #1–32 under new covers. The reprint title eventually floundered and was cancelled in July 1988.

Key team

No longer restricted solely to sidekicks to existing heroes, the Titans team branched out and included key heroes such as the college-aged Cyborg, Starfire, Beast Boy, and Raven.

''New Teen Titans'' vol. 2 (1984–1996)


The second New Teen Titans series ran for 49 issues between August 1984 and November 1988, whereupon it was also retitled, becoming simply The New Titans with issue #50, under which title it continued for another 80 issues until February 1996. Initially featuring the same Wolfman/Pérez creative team as the first series, the artist left after issue #5 to return to art duties for 11 issues starting with the change of title and the five-issue "Who is Wonder Girl?" arc in The New Titans #50–54.

''Teen Titans Spotlight On'' (1986–1988)

With DC's Teen Titans comics rivaling Marvel's X-Men for popularity, another new title was launched, this time with the explicit purpose of highlighting individual Titans, rather than focusing on the team as a whole. With the stated remit that, "Teen Titans Spotlight On: is a new concept in comics... a book where we can put the spotlight on individual members of the Teen Titans, one at a time, and let each story dictate how many issues it should run." The series ran for 21 issues, departing slightly from its aim to highlight individuals, and culminating in a "Spotlight" on the 1960s Teen Titans team as a whole.

''Team Titans'' (1992–1994)

As part of the "Titans Hunt" storyline in New Teen Titans vol. 2, a further Titans-related title was launched with a five-comic issue #1 in September 1992, featuring the time-displaced "Team Titans". This comic series ran concurrently to the New Teen Titans vol. 2 series, as the Team Titans crossed over both with that series and with Deathstroke. Teen Titans resources website TitansTower.com quotes writer/artist Phil Jimenez as saying that this series was effectively DC's answer to X-Force, but wound up going in directions contrary to DC's vision and the Zero Hour crossover event, which led to the series' cancellation with issue #24, after the team's timeline was eradicated during the event.

''Teen Titans'' vol. 2 (1996–1998)

Thirty years after the original Teen Titans series debut, and just nine months after the demise of The New Titans, a new Titans series was launched as the second Teen Titans-named series. The series was spearheaded by writer/penciller Dan Jurgens, who wrote and drew all twenty-four issues. Although the name was the same, the team was radically different, but with ties to the previous incarnations — as well as a four-issue storyline reuniting the original team. The series ran for two years, until September 1998.

''Young Justice'' (1998–2003)

September 1998 also saw the launch of writer Peter David's Teen Titans-esque title Young Justice, featuring the main DCU teenaged heroes the third Robin, the time-displaced Flash-descendant Impulse, and the cloned Superboy.

''The Titans'' (1999–2003)

By popular demand, the original Teen Titans team was given its own title once more in March 1999, after a three-issue mini-series teaming them with the JLA in JLA/Titans: The Technis Imperative, which "featured absolutely everyone that was ever a Titan, as they joined together to save Cyborg from alien influence." Following that mini-series, the new The Titans series debuted in March 1999, written by Grayson, with art initially by Mark Buckingham and Wade Von Grawbadger. Grayson left after 20 issues, and the series continued until issue #50, and the team reappeared in Judd Winick's July–August 2003 3-issue mini-series Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day. This crossover, with the then-current Young Justice team, marked the dissolution of both the Young Justice and Titans teams, as well as the alleged death of Troia and the seemingly lasting death of Omen.

''Outsiders'' vol. 3 (2003–2007)

The Graduation Day crossover marked the end of The Titans and Young Justice, but served as a launch point for two new series and teams, one of which was Winick's own Outsiders, which debuted in August 2003, and featured some former Titans in an "edgy, more grown up" series, which ran for 50 issues, until November 2007.

''Teen Titans'' vol. 3 (2003–2011)

In addition to the more "adult"-oriented Outsiders series, the end of The Titans and the events of Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day saw the debut of a third Teen Titans series, launched in September 2003 by writer Geoff Johns, with artist Mike McKone for most of the first 23 issues. The series featured Titans old and new, including the core Young Justice team, whose Robin, Impulse, and Wonder Girl fill the shoes of original Titans' first Robin, Kid Flash, and Wonder Girl. The team was founded by other former-Titans Cyborg, Starfire, and Beast Boy, and continues to tie into most previous incarnations of the team in a number of ways. The series would run for 100 issues before ending in 2011.

''Titans'' vol. 2 (2008–2011)

In June 2008, a new Titans title was launched to run alongside Teen Titans vol. 3, initially featuring a storyline based around an attack on all former Titans. The cover to issue #1 confirmed the inclusion of original Titans Nightwing, Starfire, Donna Troy, Flash, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven. The series is written by Judd Winick, and features art by Joe Benitez and Victor Llamas. The first issue has art by Ian Churchill, but due to an injury he was unable to pencil the next three issues. The series would run for 38 issues before ending in 2011.

''Teen Titans'' vol. 4 (2011–2014)

Teen Titans was relaunched in September 2011 with the New 52 reboot, with the new roster of Red Robin, Wonder Girl, Superboy, Kid Flash, Bunker, Solstice, and Skitter. The series was written by Scott Lobdell, with Brett Booth serving as lead artist from issues #1–16. The series would run for 36 issues before ending in May 2014.

''Ravagers'' (2012–2013)

Following the events of "The Culling" crossover storyline, the spinoff title Ravagers began publication, written by Howard Mackie with art by Ian Churchill. The titular team consisted of Beast Boy, Caitlin Fairchild, Terra, Thunder and Lightning, and Ridge. The series would end after 13 issues.

''Teen Titans'' vol. 5 (2014–2016)

In July 2014, Teen Titans would revert to #1 with a new creative team, being written by Will Pfeifer with art by Kenneth Rocafort, and a new roster featuring Red Robin, Wonder Girl, Bunker, Beast Boy, and Raven, later introducing Tanya Spears, the newest incarnation of Power Girl. The series would run for 24 issues before ending in September 2016.

''Teen Titans'' vol. 6 (2016–2020)

With the DC Rebirth relaunch, Teen Titans would be rebooted yet again, being written by Benjamin Percy with art by Jonboy Meyers. The roster initially included Robin (Damian Wayne), [Ace West|Kid The Flash|Flash (Wallace West)], Beast Boy, Starfire, and Raven, with later notable additions including Crush, Roundhouse, and Aqualad (Jackson Hyde). The run would feature the storylines "The Lazarus Contract", "Super Sons of Tomorrow", and "The Terminus Agenda". The series would run for 47 issues before ending in November 2020.

Other comics

The various Teen Titans comics series have crossed over with titles including Action Comics Weekly, Crisis on Infinite Earths, Deathstroke, Hawk and Dove, Infinity Inc., Omega Men, Outsiders, Young Justice, and Zero Hour: Crisis in Time!. In addition, various Titans have starred in their own comics, which occasionally had a bearing on Titans-related matters — these include original Teen Titans Donna Troy and Dick Grayson in Darkstars and Nightwing, respectively, and more recent Titans Tim Drake, Bart Allen, and Superboy in Robin, Impulse, and Superboy, among many others.
Sundry one-shots, crossovers, and specials have also been published through the years. These include Annuals, Secret Files issues, and include notable issues such as:
  • Marvel and DC Present: The Uncanny X-Men and The New Teen Titans #1
  • The New Teen Titans #1–3

''Teen Titans Go!'' (2004–2008)

In 2004, shortly after the debut of the Teen Titans TV series, DC launched a companion comic under their Johnny DC children's imprint. Teen Titans Go! broadly kept to the anime-inspired look and style of the TV series and sometimes featured "chibi versions of the Titans populating the panel borders with commentary or the occasional knock-knock joke."
Although the TV series was unable to use the character of Wonder Girl "ue to licensing restrictions," she became a recurring character in the tie-in comic in Teen Titans Go! #36, using a design by producer Glen Murakami, who also provided the cover art to that issue. The series was written by J. Torres, with art primarily by Todd Nauck and Larry Stucker. It outlasted the TV show, running 55 issues through July 2008.

''Tiny Titans'' (2008–2012)

In February 2008, a second Johnny DC children's Titans title was launched, this time dropping the "Teen" moniker, in favor of highlighting the youth of the characters featured. Written and illustrated by Art Baltazar and Franco, the series features "your favorite Titans, in their cutest possible form," with each issue featuring a number of "cute" stories. Unlike Teen Titans Go!, which has an animesque style, Tiny Titans is more reminiscent of American children's cartoons, albeit sometimes described as utilising the chibi form, by virtue of its "tiny" subjects.
