New Teen Titans Archive Vol 1

Summary: Titanic: The Special Edition
Review: This was DC's answer to Marvel's X-Men. In many ways they succeeded. George Perez's intricate artwork is nothing short of breathtaking (he's still doing this today on Avengers). The artwork really benefits from the DC Archive format printing. In fact, this wonderful artwork helped to pioneer the use of the higher quality Baxter and Mando paper printing that they use today. Marv Wolfman and Perez took us behind the masks and explored these comic characters as people, a novel concept for its time. In time, each of the main characters grew into their own. This volume is the beginning of a long, successful run on the book by Wolfman and Perez as the Titans grew into a special, character-oriented book (as opposed to being mainly action-oriented). I hope that future DC Archive editions of the New Teen Titans will be coming soon.
