"The original New Teen Titans have reteamed and formed the Titans Academy to teach the next generation of superpowered teens ...if the students can survive the training. Nightwing, Starfire, Raven, Beast Boy, Cyborg and Donna Troy are the teachers at the school and will pass along their knowledge to the young recruits looking to learn how to use their powers to reach their full potential. Meet the student body - a new Australian Speedster who runs on prosthetics, a trio of Batman obsessed Goth kids from Gotham, a teen expatriate from Gorilla City and a kid who's possibly the anti-Christ. Plus, Billy Batson has enrolled to master his powers as Shazam! But the big mystery is the which member of this first class is the mysterious Red X."--

At first I balked at what appears to be DC‘s attempt to clone Marvel‘s X-MEN, specifically the ‘school for gifted youngsters‘ aspect. But this book really transcends the initial mirage of being nothing more than a clone. The characters are interesting, the conflicts exciting, and by framing the main story as a mystery: who is masquerading as the Red X, this book manages to find it‘s own voice. Recommended!
