By Geoff Johns<\/strong>, Mike McKone<\/strong>, Ivan Reis<\/strong> & Tom Grummet<\/strong><\/p>\n (DC Comics)\u00c2\u00a0 ISBN 1-84576-166-9<\/p>\n This compilation reprints issues #15-23 of the monthly comic and the Teen Titans\/ Legion of Super Heroes<\/strong> special which saw our eponymous heroes catapulted into the thirty-first century for a huge punch up with the Fatal Five \u00e2\u20ac\u201c who had teamed up with their counterparts from 495 alternate Earths – to wipe out the future heroes. And in a way they succeed as the special is a prologue to yet another refit and re-restart of the fan favourites. But we’ll deal with that if DC ever produce a Legion<\/strong> graphic compilation.<\/p>\n The bulk of this volume concerns the time-displaced Titans fighting adult versions of themselves when they fetch up a decade into their own future – a dystopian America where the Titans have taken over the reins of government. When they finally get back to where they belong, but not before lots of running, fighting and trenchant prophetic musing, and thus forewarned if not forearmed, they promptly add a new member just in time to fight Dr Light, fresh from his pivotal role in the Identity Crisis<\/strong> publishing event. The conclusion neatly leads directly into the books that comprise the Infinite Crisis<\/strong> publishing event.<\/p>\n As a stand-alone read this is all a bit of a mess, with no real cohesive narrative thread and a bunch of done-to-death plot devices that were old even before I was. Fans won’t complain, I’m sure, but this won’t work with all those new readers the coverage of Infinite Crisis<\/strong> is intended to pull in.<\/p>\n \u00c2\u00a9 2004, 2005 DC Comics.
