DCP 26 is the first appearance of a bunch of characters that are mainstays in the DCU. B&B54 is the first time a bunch of pre-existing characters get together with a spiffy new team name. I LOVE one of them. The other...not so much. They actually don’t even have the name or form a team in 54... Lazyboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A student of mine pointed that out to me four years ago and I am in the same boat. 251 has a similar flaw. Also makes me think of the the eye dots on ASM 332. I thought some kid marked on my copy until I noticed that every issue had it. They're not even lined up. jcjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 94 being more $ 40 years ago made sense WolverineX and Mjolnir! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazyboy Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 15 hours ago, sagii said: But the Titans story begins in BB54. Yes, not any first appearances like X-Men 1 to GSX1, but it can be compared to BB28 and Avengers 1, so in that regard i think it's underrated. The team-up in 54 is an obvious prelude to the formation of a team a year later in 60, but it is not comparable to any of those issues. BB28 begins with a team that is impressively well-organized considering it did not exist previously. Avengers 1 is somewhat similar to BB54 at the beginning with multiple characters being separately drawn to the same location, but diverges significantly at the end when they decide to form a team instead of just going their separate ways.

Everyone has good points as to why they don't recognize BB54 as the first official Teen Titans formation, but 3 of the same team members from the 4 in BB60 (2nd teaming) are present in that book. Yes, they officially take the name of the Teen Titans here confirming they are a unit, but the fact that the 3 reunited and a new member joins them, is enough for me to recognize BB54 as the Titans first mission together sans a unit name. I'll use one other example to make my point : All Star Comics 3 is the first appearance of the JSA, yes they have a team name, but they do not actually work together in this issue on a mission. And many still accept that as the first JSSA appearance. The first 3 members of The Titans did work together in their first story together , even if they 'disband' at the end, they got together again, same 3 members but with a new one (4th) joining in. Enough to recognize BB54 as their first coming together even with out a team name If that doesn't cut it, I guess I'll have to join you guys on your side of the discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
