Today's World's Finest: Titans #3 from Mark Waid and Emanuela Lupacchino sees the team visit TitansCon, a comic convention held in their honour, and with plenty of Titans programming. And everyone p[resuming that they are in cosplay, until everyone realises. And for Wonder Girl, for Donna Troy, the audience wants her more than anyone else.
Wouldn't be the first time, Donna Troy has been described with the "manic pixie dream girl" trope. Maybe it was coming back to life without her own memories, only those memories of Wally West of her, and his perception of her. And yes, the "Aqualad thing" looks like it's about to hit the buffers looking at next month's solicitations… "America's sweetest situationship breaks hearts–including Aqualad's and Wonder Girl's own!–when Garth realizes a part of him isn't fully in it with Donna. To heal the wounds, Wally invites Garth and Roy to a sleepover at his folks' home, where Aqualad opens up about his fluid sexuality." And there's another Titan hiding in plain sight.
Ch'al Andar, known as Charley Parker, was the Thanagarian superhero Golden Eagle, and a member of the Titans West. Grandson of Thanagarian Andar Nal and Naomi O'Neill, son of Fel Andar (raised on Thangar) and Sharon Parker, raised as Charles Edmond Parker on Earth. it looks like he may have packed in his pledge to protect Thangarians…. but he's not the only such character going through a change. The new Toyboy looks like he may be about to step up courtesy of a stranger…
Known as the Anti-Titans in the solicitations, organised by Haywire – hell, if Waid can drop in Spanner's Galaxy, why not Michael Fleisher andVince Giarrano's Haywire from 1988? And put him in charge of the Terror Titans???
