Toonzone.net talks to both J. Torres and Todd Nauck about Teen Titans Go!, the last issue of which comes out this week … Torres talks about what will happen this week and what might have happened if the title had continued:
Right off the bat, what can fans expect from Teen Titans Go! #55, the last issue of the series? Any hints or surprises you can pass along?
Without spoiling too much… a number of cameos, which sort of help bring together certain plot threads from previous issues… and… a villain we haven’t used in the series yet. That’s all I should say to keep it fun and surprising.
Now, there’s a lot you started to set up and explored in the GO! title. The next few questions will cover a few of the ideas you presented. So, let’s go! Towards the end of Teen Titans Go!’s run, you set up plot strands concerning Wildfire and Ravager. The former gave us the mystery of whether Starfire would be reunited with him, while the latter presented the possibility of Slade’s family, including Jericho, being further explored. Where were you planning on taking these two storylines?
I certainly wanted Starfire to find Wildfire. The story I had in mind for that involved the Titans heading off into space again. As for Slade’s family, I had rough ideas for more Ravager, possibly meeting Jericho, but nothing concrete for Slade’s re-appearance. We were planning to bring him back at some point, maybe #60, but we obviously didn’t get that far. Maybe if we ever got to do an annual or special, it would make perfect sense to go big and use someone like Slade or maybe Brother Blood.
