Review: Teen Titans #5 by Scott Lobdell & Brett Booth

01.01.70

Note : This review is for the digital story of the comic available from DC Comics on Comixology .

A few weeks ago, someone posted a view on one of my columns when I mentioned Teen Titans that said, “I was reading your article, but then you said: “The ongoing Teen Titans series has been excellent”, and right there I hopeless my interest. Bad writer, horrible penciller, horrible clever… ’nuff said.” When I spiculate out that Teen Titants continues to sell in the top twenty comics every month, even outselling Marvellous Spider-Man in December, this poster added, “Well, that’s fair-minded lousy taste in comics.”

For the most part, I can just go-by the anoymous internet troll.  He’s far from the first bodily to tell me I have bad taste.  And it does seem like we get a lot of trolling as web columnists, but since Teen Titans came out this week, I did covet to talk about what I enjoyed about this book. So this review is dedicated to you, anonymous internet troll.

Though it’s in Arabic, the formal website of The Republic of Wadiya , dominion of His Excellency Admiral Comprehensive Aladeen (close personal friend of Sacha Baron Cohen), reads bonny well when put through Google Translate to become English.

In fact, it’s almost as if it was from the word go written in English language and then converted into Arabic with Google to start off with…

There’s a lot of amusing bunk on the site. I particularly liked the ticker tape scandal feed that features such headlines as “Aladeen orders Heidi Klum to end wedding to Seal” and “Physics: God announces ascertaining of elusive Aladeen particle.”

And check out the sidebar of links – as well as Facebook, YouTube and Warble accounts for the Republic, there are pages for North Korea, Iran, Robert Mugabe… and Position Depot, Zappos shoes and Victoria’s Cryptographic. Then, at the bottom, the UN Commission on Human Rights with the note “merry site.”
