If you think Raven has always been boring, bland and two-dimensional then I don't think you can really speak for what Raven fans can feel lucky for. As for Lobdell's skill for broadening 2D characters, I haven't really seen any evidence of that in TT. I'm not familiar with his other stuff, so maybe he is really good at writing for book with one central character, but he is a terrible pick for a team title. Every single character talks exactly the same. If you took away the pictures, you'd never be able to distinguish which character is talking. In good TT stories, in good X-men stories each character has their own distinct voice and style so it is obvious just by reading a quote who said it. In his TT the only character whose line are distinguishable without a picture are Skitter's when she is in her bug form and only hisses.
I am very disappointed to hear this news. The only saving grace i had when i found TT unreadable for my tastes, was that the only character I was remotely interested in was Solstice and since she was so new, I was willing to let her go and be ruined. Now Lobdell has his hands on the best female character in comics (my opinion, of course) and that will be incredibly painful to see happen.
Really?
Do you think that Wondergirl talks like Solstice?
Wondergirl who is badass, brash and resourceful compared to solstice who is easy going yet profound?
Bunker who is crazy, over the top, jovial character compared to Red Robin who is very brave, techy and natural leader?
Also Superboy whose character is one of a few months old child with all the knowledge provided. Fearless, lack of a clear sense of morality and very similar to what an acual clone would be like compared to KIDFLASH who never slows down and speaks 100 words in a second, yet loyal and just.
Starfire who is sensual, attractive, little regards for human (a very emma frost like character but with an alien twist) yet extremely powerful and loyal to those she care about compared to Caitlin who is nurturing, protective, strong, capable.
You really think all the characters talk exactly the same?
Does Rose Wilson talk like Solstice?
Does Red Hood talk like Arsenel?
Does Essence talk like Caitlin Fairchild?
