From School Library Journal Gr 10 Up—In this reboot of the DC Comics series, readers learn the origins of the Titans as reimagined for a new DC universe called Earth One. Four teens living seemingly normal lives in suburban Oregon have their worlds turned upside down when super powers are thrust upon them. They quickly realize that they are experiencing similar visions that seem to be related to their new powers. The young people ban together to uncover the secret behind these visions and new abilities. Little do they know that this secret will change not only their lives but the entire course of human history. This revamp of Teen Titans will appeal to avid comic book fans and readers new to the genre, making it an excellent addition to any library's graphic novel collection. Readers who have enjoyed other "Earth One" titles such as Batman and Superman, will surely enjoy this volume. It is also an excellent introduction to the those who are unfamiliar with comics and this franchise. The illustrations are vibrant and detailed. On each page, there are visual allusions to the secret which haunts each of the protagonists. The text and art will keep readers guessing until the very end. This first installment is an excellent opener to a promising graphic novel series. It does contain violence, alcohol use, and minor sexual situations, making it appropriate for older teens.—Annalise Ammer, City of Rochester Public Libraries, NY

10 of 12 people found the following review helpful. A decent reimagining of a classic team. By Richard Teen Titans: Earth One has the daunting task of reimagining the origins of the Teen Titans most memorable characters. Overall it does a decent job of reintroducing this cast of familiar faces.As seen in the cover image for the book, the main cast consists of Cyborg, Beast Boy (aka Changeling), Terra, Jericho, Starfire, and Raven. In this new origin story they tie the team together with a single origin story to explain their powers and how they know each other. This choice isn't necessarily bad as it keeps things simple and easy to follow, it also allows the writers to tie the heroes and villains together.The new characterizations for the cast is a little bit of a mixed bag. Perhaps the most jarring example is Cyborg's characterization as a slacker punk, which is pretty much the polar opposite of his classic personality. Beast Boy and Raven's characterizations however are nice and feel appropriate. At no time does Raven being reimagined as a Native American feel wrong, with the writers thankfully avoiding any negative stereotypes. Sadly most of the villains are much less compelling and have the feeling of being expendable fodder, although Slade's new rendition has a nice personality showing him to be dangerous but reasonable (although I hate his new costume design).Overall the story itself is decent, focusing primarily on introducing the lives of the cast, having their status quo get shaken up by their powers, and then stumbling head first into the evil conspiracy behind it all. I do have to say that I'm disappointed in the writers continuing the trend of having nothing new to add to Jericho's characterization. Since he was introduced DC has just never seemed to really have a real plan for him, and this book simply seems to retread old ground with his character. On the other hand it is very clear that Raven is going to play a big part in things to come, and without the baggage of the whole Trigon angle things seem very fresh for her.As an origin story the book does its job of introducing the cast, establishing the origin of their abilities, and laying out that they have stumbled into a world of danger that they weren't ready for. The book isn't without its flaws, and shows the typical growing pains of rebooting back to day one of a story. Overall however, when it was all over I asked myself if I wanted to read the next part of the story, and the answer is very much yes.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Graphic Novel Review: "Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One" By ERSInk . com DC Comics continues their crusade to pull in new and youthful readers with “Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One.” The publisher’s fresh visions of Batman and Superman were major hits on the New York Times Bestseller’s List, so they’re doing something right. Its target audience will no doubt embrace the book thanks to Jeff Lemire’s knack for identifying with and communicating the angst and feelings of awkwardness many adolescents deal with.Five seemingly normal teenagers from different walks of life find themselves being drawn together by an unexplainable and powerful force. Each one is struck by disturbing visions and given an extraordinary “gift” which they consider a curse. The group of misfits soon finds themselves the target of a deadly scientific group looking to bring them all in for experimentation and research.Writer Jeff Lemire takes a decades-old concept and breathes new life into it with “Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One.” I’m not entirely sure why the group needed a reboot since they just received one within the New 52 canon a few months ago. Either way, Lemire does a stupendous job fleshing out each of the characters and giving them their own dysfunctional backgrounds to pull young adults of all types in.Husband and wife team Terry and Rachel Dodson accent each other’s artistic talents perfectly within the pages of “Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One.” Terry does the penciling while Rachel inks his illustrations with the help of Cam Smith. Their work makes for a somewhat unique style which gives Lemire’s words the visual energy they deserve.“Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One” would merit a PG-13 rating in the world of cinema. There’s the usual comic book violence and peril we all expect. Some sensuality is found as well, with two of the main characters making out and hanging all over each other throughout the book.DC Comics has another hit on their hands with “Teen Titans: Earth One Volume One.” It has all the ingredients to keep young adults and even older readers coming back for more. A healthy dose of action, drama, and heavy anticipation for characters not seen yet will keep audiences hooked.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. OK read that makes most sense if you already know the characters By Johanna Draper Carlson Like most relaunches, this story makes most sense if you already know the brand. The odd mix of abilities demonstrated here — dirt control (Terra), shape-shifting (Chameleon), body invasion by organic metal (Cyborg), Native American mysticism (Raven) — don’t stem organically from the premise — evil scientist organization experimenting on captured alien. These power sets exist because they’re from the … well, not original Teen Titans, those were superhero sidekicks, but from the most famous Pérez/Wolfman era.Like most series launches — the book is optimistically labeled Volume One — this is an origin story, a gathering of the troops to make a team. They’re all high schoolers together in Oregon — Tara (Terra, earth mover), Gar (Chameleon, changes shape into green animals), Vic (Cyborg, part living metal), Joey (Jericho, spoiler) — with the exception of Raven, who lives with her grandfather on a reservation in New Mexico. She was the standout character to me, and I’d have liked to have seen more from her than simply being used as a deus ex machina.Raven seemed to have the most potential, with a well-thought-out reworking (if a bit stereotypical). Originally, she was the daughter of a demon god. Here, while all the kids have parent problems, she has a reliable guardian and is the one whose origin is most changed from the previous, since she’s now a Navajo shaman who has visions. Plus, the Dodsons’ art makes her lovely while maintaining her air of mystery. They’re a good choice for a book about superhero teens, telling the story clearly and attractively.Writer Jeff Lemire does a good job making these modern-day teens believable, since they spend most of their time grumpy and disaffected. I never bought Tara and Victor as a couple, though, since that seemed too convenient and there’s no chemistry between them. All the kids have very similar voices, too. If you took the dialogue by itself, it would be difficult to know which one was saying what.The parents are callbacks to the original. Gar’s parents were Steve and Richard, while Tara’s mother was Rita, who drinks to avoid the knowledge of what they’re doing to the kids. Joey’s father turns into yet another Titans reference later on, while Vic’s mother, Dr. Stone, is the stereotypical mad scientist experimenting on her kid.The book has pacing issues. For example, I quibble with the opening. You have to get through six pages of muddled images, intercut with an equal number of black panels, captioned in an alien language to set up the premise, which we’re all familiar with from numerous other stories. I’d rather have started with the kids. And the book reaches a natural stopping point, with the team beginning to form, but like so many superhero stories, it’s clearly intended to continue, with many open questions.It’s a weird mix, more realistic characterization in what boils down to a 50s movie plot. It’s a decent read, if very familiar, but somewhat unsatisfying in that we don’t know whether or when we’ll see more. And if we do, one slim story a year requires a lot of patience for what should be a pulpy adventure read. Still, it’s true to the feeling of the famous New Teen Titans while modernizing the threat that brings them together and cutting the ties to the rest of the DC universe. No superhero sidekicks or second generations here, just kids coming to terms with abilities they didn’t want. (Review originally posted at ComicsWorthReading.com.)
