come to think that I would like to add Red Tornado to the suspects list since I keep thinking that Red T was created by Ivo and it is possible that Ivo might have put some spy capsule or camera inside Red T's body that Red T may not be aware of it???

quote:Originally posted by superboymddjr: I have been doing some investigating through the DC Wiki and Encyclopedia....I make the list of suspects who could be a traitor:
Red Arrow (connection to Cheshire) Miss Martian (who knows? sometimes Innocent and quiet can turn out to be a traitor...?) Major Disaster (too bad he's deceased) Ravager one of the Checkmate - Count Vertigo, Thinker Amanda Waller Bronze Tiger Catman Black Lightning Risk Batgirl
any more suspects?
Who's Ravager?
I certainly hope that the traitor turns out to be someone surprising, not someone who's already considered borderline. (that said, I also hope that the revelation makes sense and isn't just a matter or making someone a bad guy solely for shock value)
Hey, where's Jack Knight been lately anyway?? (no I doubt it's him. I still like my Plastic Man guess, despite the odds being very much against it)

Ravager, the estranged daughter of Terminator....now a member of Titans.
Jack Knight - I doubt it somehow since he has a descendent who will become bad - Farris Knight. so I d cross him out from the list.

I know this ties into that "DCU Decisions" mini, but I didn't read it. Does anyone know what the deal was with the election?

now makes me wonder how many traitors does the Titan actually have? Recently Jericho was a bad guy in the mini-series - Decisions. Now this? who? raven? too obvious. Changeling? maybe. Red Arrow? due to his background in CIA, maybe. Nightwing, too obvious for a reverse psychology. Wonder Girl Donna Troy? supposed to stay dead forever and someone impersonates her? geez...poor Titans - too many deaths and too many traitors.

Random thoughts: - Nothing against Leonardi, but I don't think his style works for this book. I also really don't like how he draws Vig - especially the helmet! - I'm surprised that Vig's identity isn't more interesting. It seemed like some kind of secret when he was in "Nightwing", but here it's like, "Oh, he's some guy." Maybe there will be more later, but at this point, I'm wishing he was the guy from the "Vigilante" mini. I also wish he didn't look so much like Frank Castle. - Speaking of, I wonder when we'll get an origin story about the new Vig. It seems necessary for us to care about him. - The thing I do find interesting is the fact that he's undercover as a goon. I hope Wolfman is up to the task of presenting this (under)world, because the premise is intriguing. (although I think he needs a better excuse than, "Oh, I just happened to have to go to the can two seconds before the Vigilante showed up." )

So, we have our Nightwing guest appearance to lead us into the big Titans crossover. It reminded me a lot of 90's interaction between Daredevil and The Punisher, where Punisher would talk down to DD and DD wouldn't seem as effective as Punisher becuase he wasn't as ruthless.
Leonardi's style and depiction of Vigilante is starting to bother me. It just seems so hum-drum compared to how he's been depicted before and even on the covers. (except the current one) I think this book needs someone more realistic and who can convey a darker tone.
