Ending superhero stories is tough. By design, they're meant to go on into infinity, with heroes rarely getting a proper ending to their stories. But with so many superhero shows, this problem has come up more and more. In recent years, we've seen Arrow, Stargirl, Supergirl, and others attempt it, and now it's time for…

It's been months since we've seen Gar Logan. He disappeared when pulling the Titans out of the hairy situation they were in against Sebastian Blood and his cult. While we've caught up with all the other Titans since then, we've seen hide nor hair nor regular human sign of Gar. This week, we catch up…
Losing control of your own mind is terrifying. In real life we see it in things like Alzheimer's and amnesia; in fiction, it happens through magic, hypnosis, and other more fanciful, but no less grim means. That makes this episode of Titans feel especially tense and scary despite the warm Sunday morning sun beating down…
Things get complicated when you split up the party, as any D&D player knows, and the party is very split up as we come back from our mid-season break of Titans Season 4. Conner is embracing the Luthor parts of his DNA all by his lonesome. Dick, Kory, and Rachel go off in search of…

Most people kind of just know and understand that Wal-Mart is evil; we don't need clear visual markers to know that the big box stores that plunk down everywhere are bad for business in our communities. We don't usually get flocks of ravens swirling above them to indicate as much. Just one more way the Titans…
Magic is the name of the game in Titans Season 4, and that means that Raven is going to need some help--especially since Mother Mayhem drained her of her powers last week, leaving her blonde and gem-less. Dick Grayson goes to ask someone for help and guess what, they used to bang. Spoilers follow for Titans…
While Titans' writing hasn't always been the best--Season 2, I'm looking at you--its production values have been top notch the whole time, from almost movie-grade combat suits to above-average visual effects and some really good casting. This early in the season it's a bit harder to get a handle on the writing, but Titans is once…

Titans Season 3 is, easily, the best of the show's three seasons so far. That risks sounding like a backhanded compliment with how bad Titans Season 2 was, but I actually enjoyed watching Titans Season 3. It felt smarter, more cohesive, more agile, and more self-aware than the second season by a huge stretch. Flashbacks Suck…

There are as many conceptions of the afterlife as there are stories about it, from versions that include a formal heaven and hell to more Buddhist-informed versions with reincarnation, to stuff like The Good Place, which is kind of a mix of all of it. Titans, too, has its own conception of what it might be like…
While the comic book shows on broadcast television generally content themselves to muck around in superhero melodrama, the premium shows try to dig into themes. Watchmen was about the ways people use masks, while The Boys is all about the way power can corrupt anyone. Doom Patrol is about how wounded people can come together…
Television and film production is slowly inching back to life in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, but one show that we have not heard much about yet is Titans. Titans season 1 debuted on DC Universe on Oct. 12, 2018. Season 2 then debuted on Sept. 6, 2019. It wasn't too much of a…
It wasn't the biggest mystery in the universe, but there is finally confirmation that we will be seeing Nightwing in Titans season 2. When Dick Grayson let his costume burn during season 1 of Titans, it was natural to assume that he would be taking up the mantle of Nightwing. The only question was when…

Titans episode 111, "Dick Grayson," Trigon bending reality to his will and showing Dick Grayson (Brenton Thwaites) both his hopes and fears.

As we all saw by the "f*ck Batman" line in the first Titans trailer last summer, Robin isn't the biggest fan of the Dark Knight. IGN caught up with Robin actor Brenton Thwaites at New York Comic-Con, where he revealed why Robin has such a dislike for Batman -- he's a killer. “Batman is a…
