"Who Is Red X" Mystery In Infinite Frontier and Teen Titans Academy
The mystery of who the new Red X character for Future State: Teen Titans was not revealed in January or February, despite – or maybe because of – jumping in value on eBay and getting a special combined third printing. Red X appeared as a longterm prisoner of the future Titans, and has been teased to appear in Teen Titans Academy in March from DC Comics, but today's Infinite Frontier #0 sheds little light.
As the ferry takes prospective Teen Titans students to the Teen Titans Academy – basically think a more bureaucratic Krakoa -The Spectre tells Wonder Woman that, basically, some of these students will be villains and some will be heroes. And we see someone buying something.
Presumably, it was the Red X mask. So, at least we know their hairstyle. But rather than a Red X running amok on Teen Titans Island, the Red X mask will be used to remind Nightwing that, yes, he used to be Red X. Those past stories are now continuity as part of Infinite Frontier, where everything happened and everything matters. That other people were Red X. And that Red X is dead. So… who is playing V for Vendetta with the Red X mask? And why?
