How the Teen Titans Saved the DC Universe

Nicholas Kinoshita
July 10, 2018
Big Two, DC Comics

Justice League is the usually in the spotlight as far as the DC Universe with big names such as Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman. But what if I told you it was a team of sidekicks, the Teen Titans that saved the DC Universe from bankruptcy. The creative team of Marv Wolfman and George Perez took a chance and picked the Teen Titans when offered multiple titles from the DC lineup, A comic series that was cancelled two times before the 1980’s. But with Robin, Beast Boy, Starfire, Raven, Kid Flash and Wonder Girl, the New Teen Titans became the number 1 selling title in DC Comics and help lead DC in to Crisis on Infinite Earths a story line that would change the DC Universe forever. With the New Titans show streaming on DC Universe and the “Teen Titans Go to the Movies!” movie the Teen Titans is more relevant than ever and deservingly so. This is how the Teen Titans saved the DC Universe.

Meet Our Guest: Nicholas Kinoshita has been huge comic book fan for as far back as he can remember, whether it was watching the Batman Animated Series or reading the latest issue of Spider-man, he wanted to learn more about the characters and the stories that made them who they are.  Out of a desire to share that same enthusiasm with a community, he created the YouTube channel 808 Comic Reviews.  If you’re interested in more from him, you can subscribe at  https://www.youtube.com/808comicreviews.
