In the industry, well, there's plenty of evidence for that, from The Katzenjammer Kids to Captain America--but not the medium itself.ericshanowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08879686211456482942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103455.post-59207514099435747822012-01-29T15:17:38.361-05:002012-01-29T15:17:38.361-05:00This is a problem DC has with all its classic Tita...This is a problem DC has with all its classic Titans, not just Dick Grayson. They all grew up, some of them stepping into their mentors' shoes, like Wally West.<br /><br />But surely the whole point to the Titans was that they could grow up and not just become their mentors. The fact that DC seemed to think that that was the only place the older Titans could go - straight into the JLA shows their spectacular lack of imagination. Turning Dick into Batman was not a triumph on Morrison's part. It was a regression for Dick. He was better off as a separate hero, who had grown out of Gotham and out of the Batverse, who had built the Titans as his own, separate legacy. There's zero chance of DC's powers that be seeing the Titans that way right now though.LC Douglasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04250961297714038453noreply@blogger.com
