I have a lot of Free Comic Book Day editions in the stack of unread comics. Here is one from 2008.
Title: Tiny Titans
Issue: 1
Date: April, 2008
Publisher: DC Comics
Writer: Art Baltazar, Franco
Artist: Art Baltazar
Letterer: Nick J. Napolitano
Editor: Jann Jones, Stephanie Buscema
Cover: Art Baltazar
This book is split up into five short stories, plus a one-panel cartoon, a pinup page featuring the whole team, and a maze activity page.
The stories are humorous and cute, mostly aimed at the young audience, although there is a bit for the adult audience in a pretty clever parody of some of the recent controversies over changes in comic book characters traditional costumes.
I also thought that the wordless Beast Boy story was adorable.
Some of the other jokes fell a bit flat, although one gained a bit in its repetitive use and could be good as a running gag as the series continues.
The art style is very cute and straightforward, with the characters totally recognizable in these "cartoony" incarnations.
Nothing too groundbreaking here, but a fun kid-friendly book with a bit to get a smile out of any Titans fan.
Rating: 6.5/10
