You know, the scene with Fairchild and the c...HA!! You know, the scene with Fairchild and the cop actually mirrors what Lobdell did with Essence and Jason in Red Hood #7, and I didn't even pick up on it until you mentioned the lack of relationship between the cop/SB/Fairchild... In Red Hood, we know Jason has some sort of relationship with Essence(although on panel they only interact once, briefly), but it's never really established. Same here, as suddenly this cop, who appeared in what, two or three panels prior to this one, is a trusted confidant of SB? When did THAT happen?! I have to say, Lobdell is doing some weird stuff in the books he's writing... Just wait until you get your hands on Teen Titans #7 for further proof!x-man75https://www.blogger.com/profile/10292719455945603075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-26073239460530909132012-03-29T19:05:14.716-04:002012-03-29T19:05:14.716-04:00OMG, I totally thought about our conversation, so ...OMG, I totally thought about our conversation, so I LOLed when I read this review. I had the same "WTF?" reaction to the ending. First, I love how Lobdell just presents this cop as if we know who she is. I re-read issue #4, and he never mentions her there. But, we're supposed to believe they became so buddy-buddy that he'd entrust Fairchild to her. But, the Cassie part took the cake. I mean, isn't Cassie constantly trying to leave behind the superhero-ing in "Teen Titans?" Why does she suddenly care enough to decide to go seek revenge on Superboy, particularly given how thoroughly he kicked her ass last time? Did she think it would somehow be easier to fight him at his HQ? Because, um, it seems like it would be the opposite. Bizarre. Totally bizarre. But, as I've said, and you say here, I care less about how Superboy becomes a Titan and more about it happening as soon as possible so we can leave behind robot Superboy. Fingers crossed.JWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18384937330661711685noreply@blogger.com
