TD - I think the Tiny Titans thread at ComicBloc has a link to that pic.
I'm looking forward to this book too. They all look ultra adorable and I was thrilled to see a mini Bumblebee on that cover as well. Hopefully mini Mal isn't far behind.

J Torres has cofirmed TTG! will be continuing in some form... makes me more charitable to trying out the Tiny Titans, as well.
quote:Although it was announced in August that Teen Titans Go! would be canceled to make way for new titles in DC’s kids line, writer J. Torres reveals the series will continue in its current form until April’s Issue 54, and then undergo some sort of change:
quote:Torres: After that point, the series is supposed to continue but perhaps (note: perhaps) in a different format and most likely at a different frequency (bimonthly? quarterly?), but we don’t know yet what that new release schedule will be.
In any case, you did it. You saved the comic book from cancellation. Yay, TTG fans!

I really enjoyed the first two issues. The last one not as much, though it's hard to really judge a book like this. I think it just read quicker; some of the mini-stories/jokes took pages to set up this go. But it's meant to be a simple, fun read, and it is.
I'm not exactly the target market, so I hesitate to overanalyze it. Of course some of the puns or jokes are simple, but there's some cute in here: Terra throwing rocks at the boys and the girl Titans being hypocritical by being two-faced to her. I'm also liking the little, dialogue-less Kid Devil.
For only being three issues in, there's been an impressive amount of appearances by various Titans, their villains, and supporting DCU members. It's interesting. I'd suggest giving the first issue especially a shot and seeing what you think. I'm not blown away by it or die laughing, but it has its charm and it's fairly consistent so far.

It's adorable! That's the only word for it. It less snort-milk-out-your-nose funny than Franklin Richards: SOAG was its peak, but what it lacks in guffaws it more than makes up for in perfectly captured and adorable character vignettes. The last issue the 5-year-old and I read was #2, and we both thought the sequences between the Tiny Titans and the Fatal Five on the playground were just wonderful. Leave it to lame supervillain kids to issue a freeze tag challenge to a team with a speedster! What the book has is that steady, frame-to-frame beat that the best newspaper comic strips have always had.

Future is correct! The sight gags with the silent-but-deadly 'Lil Devil are fantastic! How many ways can we think of to use Devil as a walking roaster? I look forward to finding out.
The other thing that rawked, in the first ish I believe, was that a cityscape behind the characters in one panel was my sweet home Chicago, and the 5-year-old recognized it himself and his eyes lit up.
