Titans #3

I'm doing second readings on the first five issues before I do these reviews, and I'm frankly shocked at how much my personal nostalgia for this team has kept this book on my pull list. On the second readings, I am way less enthused.

Okay, so this issue: Kadabra rants about becoming infamous, Wally has another long boring chat with an angry Linda who still doesn't remember him, and the Titans do little more than try to figure out their next step. We see Vox and Bumblebee out of costume, watching everything on the news. And there's a weird seen with Kadabra about blood on his watch that seems to be referencing a visual from Watchmen, but I honestly don't know what the connection is. I don't know if that's because it hasn't been revealed, if I've just missed something, or if I'm seeing something that wasn't intended.

Overall, I'm becoming disenchanted with this book. I'll give it until the end of the arc, and probably the first issue of the next arc just to see what changes, but the axe is being sharpened to cut this from my pull list. I'm actually disappointed to be giving this score, but I'm giving it just one star.
