Teen Titans: Year One #3 of 6

At the end of issue three we hit the end of the review of the first Teen Titans adventure. What took one issue back in the day, took three here. The seams of the story began to show in issue two, but Karl Kerchel's art with Serge LaPointe and Steph Peru held the issue together. This issue is pretty much more of the same with the younger heroes bemoaning the actions of the older heroes and finally solving the case. This leaves us three issues for Wolfram to work some magic. I'm hoping that she takes new spin on this team and tells an original tale. There is a lot of fertile ground here and I believe that she can do it. The art team really makes this book, though. While the story has been weak, the art team has put out some great character designs, page layouts, and just plain cool art.

I can't fully recommend the first half of the series and I'm hoping that the back half brings something new.
