One thing I noticed about Slade was he seemed to have brown hair instead of white -- what's that about?? Just how much are they rewriting the character and his motivations if he looks nothing like the comics version? Is the change merely cosmetic or something more (the shroud of secrecy around his face would indicate that maybe Robin might recognize him?)
btw, I like Starfire's retro costume with the skirt and Raven's Goth look (reminds me of Dusk from "Slingers").

not bad not bad...in fact, I was impressed how Robin was protrayed, all with his determination, skills, agility, stealth, etc. It showed how and why Robin is an important part of the Titans. He proved how dangerous he could be when it came to dire situation he's put into. Wow.
As for Batman, I thought I saw a figure that looks like Batman...so looks like I was not the only one who was hallucinating.
Can't wait to see it again this Saturday! (or Sunday)

I thought it was cool how they panned up to the roof and the bats flying by as Robin said "I already have a father" (and of course the battle was on top "Wayne Enterprises"). I guess they don't want to confuse the kids by mentioning Batman, but they were certainly none too subtle with the references for those of us who know.

I just caught part two and while the story wasn't too bad (and I did catch all the Bat references but didn't see him) I still think the animation is too much of a turn off for me. It completely ruins the story.
Plus, wasn't this supposed to be set in the future? I just don't see that. Maybe these two episodes weren't enough to see the look but it seems to fit into regular continuity (cartoon wise) to me.

In terms of the animated continuity, maybe it's supposed to be after Batman retires? Robin's still kinda young so I dunno ... I've seen most of the episodes and nothing about it is really "futuristic".

Can't wait to see that one!! Robin teaming up with Mento?!? Robotman? Elasti-Girl? Negative Man and Raven? but I am more excited about the guest-stars, Gnarrk, Kole, Bushido, etc.

I'm really looking forward to the Doom Patrol ep. It'll be cool to see Negative Man onscreen (it would be even cooler to see Rebis, but I can't imagine that'll happen).
I'm also glad to see that Hotspot will make another appearance! He's a cool looking character. He's not based on someone in the comics is he? If not, they should bring him in DCU proper somehow.
