I read comic books and watch the movies and shows based on comics, but for the longest time, I have often turned away from the Teen Titans. I’ve always despised how comic books writers have depicted children and teenagers as these angsty beings that are supposed to be how they expect themselves to be if they had great gifts and powers at their age. The Teen Titans comics were no different and did not gain me as a fan.
But I do appreciate greatly the animated series of several great heroes like Superman, Batman, and Justice League. Having just finished these shows I had managed to catch a poster of this show and saw a drawing of Robin, Batman’s ward in the fight against crime in Gotham City. Thinking this was a spinoff from the Batman Animated Series I decided to watch this. I was wrong in it being a spinoff but, in the end, it didn’t matter, I was hooked.
While not a spinoff, I treated it like one. Robin, the Boy Wonder of Gotham City has come out of his mentor Batman’s shadow. Moving from the gothic corner of Gotham City to the bright sunny shores of Jump City alongside several powerful beings. Starfire, a bright and charming alien teenager who fights on her new home with exuberance and joy as well as a ferocious loyalty to her new friends. Cyborg, the oldest of the group who as his code name clearly states is half man/ half machine with incredible abilities as well as a big brother to his fellow friends. Raven, a young and mysterious girl with mystical powers that tempers with a sardonic sense of humor. Finally, Beast Boy, the youngest of the group with the ability to morph into any animal from the zoo to the prehistoric, but all that pales against an irritating sense of humor.
These youngsters combined are the Teen Titans, Jump City’s defenders against the criminal element. From stopping your typical lowlifes to the ferocious of villains, the Teen Titans also enjoy life as the teenagers they are. From looking for the remote control, deciding what to eat for dinner. Combat practice, to enjoying a night at the carnival. It felt wonderful watching these young kids being, you know… ACTUAL KIDS!
Yes, kids grow up, but they grow up slowly and steadily. Learning as well as enjoying life at their age. But at the same time getting to use their abilities for good just like adults can. Eventually I read the comics, but in the end, I think the show is LOADS better. I am so glad this is finally out on Blu-Ray is it covers its first season in all its glory.
From its first encounter with the HIVE Academy, to Starfire’s encounter with her wicked sister Blackfire, Thunder and Lightning, Cyborg’s encounter with another cyborg, fighting Dr. Light, Raven and Starfire switching places, meeting Aqualad, Mad Mod’s kidnapping of the Teen Titans, Cyborg’s new car to the epic confrontation against Slade. It’s all here.
Beast Boy is so dorky but adorably funny at times, with his animal transformations being clever and uniquely suited. Cyborg is the super cool jock who maintains his humanity despite being part robot. Raven’s sense of humor is dry but so suited as well as the mysterious and at times downright terrifying powers she uses. Starfire is wonderfully girlie and sweet but also courageous and deeply loyal. Robin truly is in his element, moving on from his time as Batman’s protégé to be his own man, even if he’s still a teenager.
So great to finally have this on Blu-ray, seeing as it was filmed back when DVD’s were available only. Glad I waited because the picture is wonderful. I wasn’t entirely into the special features but with such a great theme song, it was cool seeing how it was made. I didn’t like the comics and had no real interest in seeing a special feature on the comics original Teen Titans or New Teen Titans.
Great to finally have. Can’t wait for Season Two to be released on Blu-ray.

Episodes out of order hurt this release
Unfortunately I have to give this a bad review. The episodes are out of order, and there's no good reason that they should be on this bluray. I'll still give it an extra star because the audio and video presentations are nice. But I own all the dvd's for this show already, and I'm not dying to upgrade to a bluray that isn't overall better in every aspect. And just fyi, the original episode order should be:1 "Divide and Conquer"2 "Sisters"3 "Final Exam"4 "Forces of Nature"5 "The Sum of His Parts"6 "Nevermore"7 "Switched"8 "Deep Six"9 "Masks"10 "Mad Mod"11 "Car Trouble"12 "Apprentice Part I"13 "Apprentice Part II"
