Deaku chapter 5 . 4/16/2011 Quite a nice end to the story, I very much enjoyed the whole thing all the way through. It was nice seeing the new teams getting settled in a bit, it'll be interesting to see how they all develope from here. I also liked how you worked in the KP stuff. Great work on the story, I'll be looking forward to any future adventures of these new Titans. |
Slyrr chapter 5 . 4/16/2011 I'm not up on my geography. I'd have to guess that Illinois and Iowa are far enough apart that it would make sense to divide them that way. If Robin's goal is to have a staffed tower over an even spread of locations, he'd have to make sure that the towers were far enough apart that they could cover a decent amount of areas without overlapping. Nice that KP got thrown into the discussion too, given the stuff I normally write about ;) And even the heroes can't remember Ron's name... It may not have been wise to call TOO much attention to the fact that the OC team so closely resembles the canon team in powers/abilities. Although if anyone could do it tongue in cheek, it would be BB. Seriously, some people need to get over their 'every state except California and NY stink' prejudice ;) I understand the sentiment. But really, I get tired of every movie and TV show and comic book ever made being set in LA or NY, as if there were no other parts of the country worth living in or seeing. And when other places are mentioned, it's in the same sneering, dismissive tone that Sparrow reflexively adopted. Granted, Des Moines may well have been a boring dump - but she didn't know that. She just assumed it sight unseen. Just a pet peeve of mine - nice that you apologized for her at the end of the tale... I admit to spacing out a bit during the second half when Ultragirl et. al were talking about the storage closet. (read it over twice and I'm still not sure I followed it). Liberty and Justice... add 'for all' and you've got a catch phrase! Of all the characters, I found myself liking Tin Man the most. Sure he didn't do much, but he just seemed the coolest and most level headed of the bunch. It's always the quiet ones... I thought you said this was the end, but then you went and threw in '...FOR NOW!' So I guess a return to the stories will be turning up eventually... I was only a casual fan of TT, and kind of 'm'eh' about the whole 'Titans East' thing when those episodes were shown. Can't say I'd be an avid follower if this was your next ongoing series, but it's interesting enough to be self-sustaining. Just have the characters evolve beyond upskirt jokes and they'll be much more mature ;) |
Jesse Lee chapter 5 . 4/15/2011 Great finish and, it looks like, start of a series. Keep up the good writing. |
LeoLupin chapter 5 . 4/15/2011 Reviewing again, and this time it will stick, gorramit! Great work BB, can't wait for your next project. |
Nami Takata chapter 5 . 4/15/2011 Yay! So is the story over or is it going to continue? Love it! |
Guest chapter 5 . 4/14/2011 That bit where they were all talking about KP could only have been better if at the end when they apologize to Robin he says: Robin: Don't be sorry, just focus! Others: Sorry! ala Spaceballs. Anyway, good stuff BB. Love the Forthwall breaking with the Terror Sec and Forshadowing the KP thing. Now only if there was more of that... |
WolfBloodBaptism chapter 5 . 4/14/2011 Not a bad story. A few gramatical errors and misspelled words, but I liked it. Are you gonna continue with Titans Chicago and Titans Mid-West in different stories? |
Jesse Lee chapter 4 . 4/5/2011 Fun read and good writing. Love the Wholigan riff with the "Cyborgmen". |
Slyrr chapter 4 . 3/31/2011 I wondered if Batgirl and Robin should have had a bit more of an understanding, if this Batgirl studied with Batman in any way ;) I expected them to chat a bit about what a tough boss Batman is. And how would Raven know what kinds of movies BB watches? ;) The other hero runs through the obstacle courses were pretty much what I expected. I can't say that I was rooting for any group or individual in particular. I don't know the characters well enough to root for any specifically, despite the exposition. The tension between sparrow and phantom was kind of neat, but the scenes ended quickly so I couldn't get as good a feel for them as I might have if they were in a full-blown story. It did seem kind of mean for Cyborg to rub Secret's defeat in her face so eagerly. The scene where she envisioned a 'whole new life' after succeeding made her removal seem almost vicious, followed by her sullen 'didn't want to join anyway' mutters. Maybe the rejects should form their own team and call it the Misfits ;) |
Nami Takata chapter 4 . 3/31/2011 This was an Awesome story and I enjoyed every word of it! By the way, do you do Escrima yourself? I mean you had Siren hold those sticks and they were an AWESOME reference! I do Escrima myself actually! Please write more! :D |
Deaku chapter 4 . 3/30/2011 Nice chapter, it was an enjoyable read. The banter between the characters was fun and the action on the course made things exciting. Good to see who hass made the cut; I even guessed right on a few of them. I agree that Robin and Cy need to have a bit of a talk though, some of those traps did seem a bit harsh/nasty. |
LeoLupin chapter 4 . 3/30/2011 ah, tentical monsters? really BB? Really? Naw, I'm just jerking you around, good work on this one, as always the banter was great. |
The Aberrant One chapter 1 . 3/6/2011 'Ello...I kind of stumbled across this fic from your link on Deviant Art. Congratulations...you made me choke on my soda from laughing. |
Guest chapter 3 . 2/27/2011 single bit of paint on her lilith frame. "Lithe" frame, unless your comparing her to Adam's apocryphal demonic first wife, Lilith. One they at least halfway past as they made it to the top of the mountain. "passed". Omega said rather formerly "formally". |
ComposerDragon chapter 3 . 2/26/2011 aw, i was hoping Yellow Jacket and Pirate Girl would make it in... i liked them. please let them try out again! and succeed! |
