![]() I could see what Garcia and Picolo were trying to do - explore a variety of themes within their pages - but for me, it didn’t quite come through. At the same time, Stella is trying to rehome some dogs from the shelter she works at so that they won’t be put down.īoth of these characters clearly lead rich lives, and have important thoughts and feelings about a variety of things. Tank, the hot dog eating champion, begins struggling at school and can’t understand why. Our secondary characters, and Gar’s best friends, are also incredibly complex. ![]() The plot generally could have been more fleshed out, but it was interesting nonetheless to see this new take on his origin story. That is until some secrets are revealed, and his body begins changing at a beastly rate (hehe). He is struggling with his self-confidence because he doesn’t look or sound anything like the other guys in his school. Naturally, Gar is the centre of the story. I feel like there could have been a lot more depth to the story, especially considering the scope the secondary characters provide. I read the whole thing in about 45 minutes. The story is pretty straightforward - its a fast read. The graphic novel itself isn’t overly complicated. The opportunity to read this new generation of Teen Titans comics, then, was not going to pass me by! Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo have come together to create this stunning new origin story for our old favourite, Garfield (sorry, Gar) Logan. Raven was always my favourite, with Beast Boy coming in close second. When Gar realizes the extent of his mysterious physical changes, he has to face the truth about himself - and the people who truly matter - before his life goes roaring out of control.Ĭonfession time: I never read the original Teen Titans comic book series, but I was an avid watcher of ‘Teen Titans’ on Cartoon Network back in the day. ![]() Gar takes on bigger and bigger dares and the stakes keep getting higher. He’s finally getting everything he wanted, but his newfound popularity comes at a price. Gar grows six inches overnight, his voice suddenly drops, and he’s stronger and faster. When Gar accepts a wild dare, he impresses the popular kids, and his social status soars. Gar’s besties, Stella and Tank, can’t understand why he cares what other people think, and they miss their funny, pizza-loving, video game-obsessed friend. And Gar is determined to find a way to impress the social elite at Bull Creek High School. Even in a small town like Eden, Georgia, the 17-year-old with green streaks in his hair can’t find a way to stand out. Garfield Logan has spent his entire life being overlooked. As a long-time Beast Boy and Raven lover, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to read Teen Titans: Beast Boy in preparation for the upcoming comic Teen Titans: Beast Boy Loves Raven.
