Sean McKeever leaves Teen Titans
The man who took over for Geoff Johns on TT is now departing (via Titans Tower Monitor), though he says he'll be writing a backup feature for Ravager for a while more.
Can't say I'm sorry to see him depart as a full time writer for this. That assault he initiated on Wendy and Marv alone was truly reprehensible, and it makes no difference if Wendy survived, even in a coma, surely their idea of how to get away with the offense - it's still distasteful, right down to the Women in Refridgerators allusion. In fact, now that I think of it, chances are they haven't shown Wendy wake up from the coma yet, nor will we ever see anything else done about it, nor will she ever be developed as a supporting cast member or any kind of use made of her in the future.
The current TT volume has lost a considerable amount of its audience, and unless Dan DiDio specifically steps down as EIC and an editor of this title, I don't see a bright future for it.
