Now this feels like the Teen Titans. Jeff Lemire has crafted a great volume to what I thought was the weakest of the Earth One series. No longer Teen Titans: Earth One definitely deserves its place at the table. I like how the rest of the team was assembled together in this volume. Impulse, Wonder Girl & Kole who start out as enemies of the Teen Titans fill out the rest of the team. Slade Wilson demonstrates a heroic turn in this story-arc. Raven & Starfire return in the end uniting all of the Teen Titans members together for the first time. Finally Cyborg comes into his own & is revealed in a really cool way. There is a very minor cliff hanger of a potential threat on the way but for now the teens just get to bask in victory & being teenagers. I know that other than sequel planned to the current titles within the Earth One stable there are plans for an Aquaman & a Flash title. For those I am equally excited but I also think there are a great many of DC Comics current heroes who could work well within the Earth One format. For instance I would like see a Green Arrow, a Green Lantern, as far as the single heroes go but in terms of other team books go a Justice League, a Justice Society, a Freedom Fighters or a Green Lantern Corps. I am sure there are other heroes that people would love to see join the Earth One series.
