    Underwhelmed is more like it...

    I had a lot of high hopes for this book. I love Young Justice and the original Teen Titans book but Scott Lobdell is really slipped with this issue. Its not like this book sucks, its actually quite good in some parts, its just so bland and uninteresting. The interactions that made Red Hood more interesting and fun are barely present here. There's some good dialogue to be had, but its buried under so much padding that I find myself less interested everytime I re-read. I tried to really get into this, but this issue really didn't pick up at all from the last. It was virtually the same. Hell, Red Hood switched things around at least.

I won't even give this another issue if Mr. Lobdell won't even try.

Tim is still focused on getting a team together to fight against the agents of N.O.W.H.E.R.E and Cassie is still adamant about keeping out of it. We are also introduced to some new characters in this issue. The first of which is Skitter who is a half insectoid half human teenager that seems to be having trouble holding onto her humanity. The other is none other than Solstice who has undergone a serious cosmetic change. Though not as action...
