Theo, if you've seen my Superboy/Robin icon from LJ, that's from Teen Titans.
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Theo, pick up the Young Justice trades and the Teen Titans trade.
NOT, I should stress, Teen Titans GO!, which is a totally different beast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I couldn't get into Young Justice. Teen Titans is nice and light at times, but Justice #1 was too goofy for me.

Young Justice wound up with some of the bleakest, darkest stuff I've read in comics. And it made me cry. More than once.
But it took a good while before it got to the point where it could tug on your heartstrings like that.

Around where? And would it still hit you if you hadn't read all the preceding?

The silly lets up about 10-15 issues in, IIRC.
Yep. About issue 15, I think. But I'm not sure if it would hit you if you hadn't read all the preceding.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Young Justice was special in that it gathered up all the young, vaguely stupid characters in DC that I find too annoying for words and gave them their own title. It's as if Joss made a show starring Dawn, Kennedy, Andrew, and Connor. With occasional mentoring visits from St. Cordy, "Provider"-era Angel, and Season 7's Speechifying!Buffy.

I like Superboy just fine, and Robin. I'm so glad I didn't read much Bart before the knee problem, because I doubt I'd have found the love.

He's very love-worthy in Impulse. Stubborn little cuss.
But he's way cooler now.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
Matt: hah! I read the whole run of YJ and it never did it for me, but I do like Teen Titans.
