Teen Titan Vol 3: Death Of The Family

 Teen Titan Death Of The Family.

The book is Teen Titan vol 3 Death Of The Family. Author by Scott Lobdell and Illustrator by Brett Booth and published in 2013. The book is a comic.  


Part 1 of the comic, Death of the family starts out with a Red Robin origin story. This is essentially a reboot of the classic “A Lonely Place of Dying” arc that originally introduced Tim Drake. As far as modernizations go, this one is on the better side of things. It streamlines Tim’s origin while also reintroducing his backstory for newer readers. Plus, it makes him a more three-dimensional character and shows that he has cares outside of the Teen Titans.


Part 2 of the comic, The rest of the comic focuses on the Joker’s return. Half of this story follows Red Robin and Red Hood, who has been captured by the Joker and are forced to fight one another. This storyline is pretty average, it has a few exciting moments and a couple of neat twists. However, the real positives come from seeing the two former Robins interact with one another. Their brotherly relationship is unique and seeing it stressed by the Joker only makes it more interesting.


Part 3 of the comic, The other half focuses on the rest of the Teen Titans. This story fails to really build much excitement since the “villain” is a nebulous virus that never feels that threatening. In addition, random preludes to Red Hood and the Outlaws storylines distract from the reading experience and make the storyline more chaotic overall. Luckily, the solid level of character development helps make up for these faults. Watching the Teen Titans fumble without Robin and then come together as a team is a very entertaining spectacle.
