This Is The Sound Of My Jaw Dropping


In retrospect, that Titans ad looks pretty good. This one (the cover for issue #3) has so much stupid packed onto a single page that it's hard to know where to start. Chin-sucking Starfire? Rubbery Flash? All the cheesy Photoshop lens flare effects?

Naw, it's gotta be Sharper-Image Cyborg. He looks like something you dangle over your flower pots to make your weed grow faster.

And what is up with everyone's neck? Were they all raised Kayan?

Wow. Ummm, what's up with that? That's horrifying.

Remember when Rob Liefeld took over Titans' artwork for two issues? So does this guy, apparently.

It's really a shame, too -- an 80s-Titans reunion book would be something I would normally look forward to--except for the writer (Winick) and the artist (Benitez). They're working double-overtime to get me not to care.

My sister showed me that one XD I think it's hilarious! XDDD Esp Cyborg. He looks mad about something.. prolly that his legs were stolen :( Poor Cyborg!

You don't tug on Superman's cape. You don't steal Cyborg's legs...

Ami Angelwings said...

Maybe Cyborg tugged on Superman's cape! :O

Ami Angelwings said...

Oh!

And I luff how despite all the insanity going on there IS NO BACKGROUND! It's just a series of colour blocks and lens flares! XD

And is that golden bear supposed to be Beast Boy?

sigh... I don't know what they're thinking here.
