The "We Like Gar Logan Back on the Titans" thread

[Lady Timedramon]

Besides... if he gets into a book full time, the artist might decide the costume is fugly enough to change it... or if he gets into a book full time, we can then stalk the designated artist until he changes it

Though you know... I wonder what Justiniano would do with that costume....

Guys, I just posted a link in the announcements forum to Vaneta Rogers' Pia Guerra interview where she actually mentions she's a Titans fan!

Man, what I wouldn't give to see her rendition of Gar Logan. If she was hired as artist for the rumored adult Titans title, someone might have to give me CPR a few times because it would just KILLMEDEAD. Love her work.

[Lady Timedramon]

Hmm... looking at her artwork, it does have a similar feel to Justiniano's style and detailing.

Though if I can make it to Dallas ComicCon at the end of the month, I plan on stalking Ben Dunn for a pic of Gar. Other than Ben Dunn and Bill Willingham (who, if I make it, after he signs one of my Fables books, I plan to ask about that craptastic portrayal of Gar in Robin), there's not much going on at the con. http://www.scifiexpo.com/dcc/Next-Co...onvention.html for the guest list.

DUDE, PLEASE DON'T DISS HIM ABOUT GAR! Regardless of how you felt about Willingham's portrayal, the last thing we need is for any creator to get a sour taste in their mouth from fans saying they didn't like their take on Beast Boy. It might make him think twice about including him in a future story. We need more BB in comics, not less!

Praise the fact that he wrote about Beast Boy and what few things you did like about it, and leave it at that.

Has anyone seen Justice 12? Does Gar appear in it? I know I've seen Elasti-Girl.

Though the bigger question would be: did Alex Ross draw Gar as human, or just as animals?

New Doom Patrol comic? Wayne: "We're confident that at some time between now and 2030 they'll be a new Doom Patrol book."

*sigh*

EDIT:

New Showcase reprints? Wayne: "A lot. We're doing two of them a month." He asked fans what they wanted to see in the format, and people yelled out things like "Suicide Squad" and "Doom Patrol." One person suggested "Giffen Justice League," which got applause, to which Wayne joked, "Aren't most of those characters dead?"

Nowhere I've seen in the issue.

Bob Wayne is NOT FUNNY.

Who is Bob Wayne anyways?

Other than probably the most hated person by Doom Patrol fans right now....

Nah, he's just the messenger.

This is sounding very much like an editorial directive from the top.

It could be either an editorial directive... or editors wanting to have a laugh at the expense of desperate Doom Patrol fans...

A flurry of announcements this weekend, but still no sign that Gar is going anywhere but back into limbo.

[Timekeeper]

I don't want Gar on Titans right now, but I full heartedly expect him and Raven to be in the lineup for whatever the rumored New Titans book is.

[Lady Timedramon]

I want Gar in his own book, in a "buddy book" with Cyborg, or in a new team altogether. Gar is growing past both Titans and Doom Patrol.

Though right now, I'll take him in any book I can find....

[Timekeeper]

What if we just got a Titans sidebook which rotated around characters? Almost like a Brave and the Bold but with Titans?

[Lady Timedramon]

They did that once before, as "New Teen Titans Spotlight on...."

The problem would be, some characters would wind up appearing more than others (like Nightwing, Troia, and probably Tempest and Arsenal), and Gar would get shafted as usual.

Gar's always been the "Sixth Wheel" to the Fab Five.
