Woooooo!!!
Woo
Can we do teen titans go next
@torpid iron
Or teen titans the one from Cartoon Network
We take votes on a Player’s Choice topic once a month! Stick around after trivia to participate.
This is my first trivia night and I’m going completely blind
literally so hyped. trivia i can do at last!!
So hyped
We took a vote, and I selected the most popular morning and evening times to accommodate for every time zone
Its all good. Its just not meant to be 🤷♂️. Its not even my regular session time just the only day and time i had free this week.
This actually works great for me as someone from Europe
this is for Europe bros
We'll be doing 2 weeks every month at this time for the foreseeable future!
😄🥰🫶👍

I know next to nothing about 80s TT, but I'll try!
Btw, is this 11am EST, or am I REALLY early lol
😱 you need to read this!
Imma use my other phone and try to sneak in here every now and then. There are few DC specifics i am verse on and 80s titans is one of them. Wonder woman, legion, titans, zatanna and supergirl with a side of catwoman is where my confidence lies
I know! It's on my list, but I just haven't gotten to it yet
Pretend it's obscure! 🤣
🤣
I know a bunch about Kole because of this month's reading, but I don't remember if that's even this series lol
She is in the 80s Titans
I've read up to Devin Grayson so far so that's where my knowledge ends.
I own everything titans from day one to current but ive only re-read 90s and 80s stuff so thats what I have retained the most
The 80s reread should serve you well today
Well my classes got cancelled today, so I will be able to join in after all
I'm ready to get one point again
That's my goal too!
I know nothing about the TT so this will be interesting
Is it in one minute?
Yes
Thanks
I'm ready
My wifi sucks, so I'm just hoping I don't miss things from lag lol
It's time! Here we go!
Ok

Knife
Anyways, he was smuggling weapons to venezuela
Oh, was this the Teen Titans/Suicide Squad special?
Normal behaviour
wb trivia champion!
Nope!
Nobody knows this
I don't remember any airport moments with Hawk in the regular NTT series.
same
being agressive?
Well it's not the weapons I guess
Hawk was barely in NTT. Like two issues.
Well done everybody
Sort of unrelated, but I thought Dove having those weird light powers in Blackest Night was kinda dumb tbh
CORRECT!
Yes!
Makes sense for Hank

Like all great comic countries, it's sort of vagually in a specific area

Now let's talk to our scoreboard leaders. @coarse musk, how do you feel about the Teen Titans? Do you have a favorite member, or incarnation of the team?
Not a popular opinion, but I think my favorite run is the Adam Glass run with Damian and co.
You're right! That really isn't a popular opinion! What makes that one your favorite?
As for favorite member, not sure, I liked the cartoon Beast Boy.

Well, to be honest, it's one of the few I've read all the way through.
Crush is cool
That's fair! I will admit I do like the lineup. Roundhouse and Djinn are underrated.
I liked the new characters it introduced too, and I thought Glass did a pretty good job balancing Damian's darkness without making him too grim or too lighthearted.
My love for comics really started when I would watch Teen Titans growing up, that and reading old comics with my uncle
@green sphinx, what is it about Raven that appeals to you? How did you get into ravenology?
does it require a degree
i love her sweet and compassionate nature! raven is always willing to help people who need it, even if it comes to her detriment.
i think she epitomizes what it is to be a hero despite her pacifism
You got to learn your Trigon-nometry
i'm getting there!
It's definitely something I feel gets too underplayed! I have a personal fondness for the more recent Raven solo comics by Marv Wolfman, how do you feel about those?
those are so good! it's sad what's been done to her character lately, but it's always nice to catch glimpses of her!
I quite agree. Good group of passionate Titans fans here of all kinds!
Let's keep going into our second half!
It's sad what's been done to a lot of characters recently tbh
Comic industry needs a refresh

QUESTION #14
What do Slade and Terra use to take out Changeling in Teen Titans: The Judas Contract?
poison
radar gun
Narcotics
I need more specifics! (You can guess again.)
Poison fan letter
potion
Evenlope poison
I'll accept this! Taken out like Susan Ross on Seinfeld.
I had no idea they took him out like George Costanza's fiance.
Maybe they do it like in the movie and use Kevin Smith
it was another guess, so I have no idea about the specifics
LMAO

QUESTION #15
What is Starfire's nightmare about when the Titans' dreams are invaded by the Children of the Sun?
Surprised joker hasn't used pop up anthrax cards
it's coming in DC Finest so I can read it then
being a slave again
All her friends hating her
The death of Tamaran
i would say he use the villain Terra to pose as a new team member to gain the trust of each Titan until they reveal their secret identities
losing her powers?
Her family all dead
That doesn't answer what they use, though, in that specific case.
Starfire has a lot of nightmares in NTT so I probably get them mixed up 😅
hurting the titans?
It was finals day and she hadn't studied
And the proms tomorrow
And she's forgot to wear pants to school
I'd say she was also naked, but the 80s outfit isn't much different
TIME'S UP! The nightmare was about killing Blackfire.
Well I say do it
I was gonna say Blackfire
but i didn't know if she was made for the cartoon
QUESTION #16
Which secret agent was the Teen Titans' liaison with the FBI?
roy harper
Good guess, but that wasn't the FBI!
haha, all i got
Uhhh Snapper Carr
green arrow
We get it
Sorry, only one guess allowed per question.
But, hell, close enough. I'll give it to you.
It would frankly be rude not to give you the point.
I kept getting typos it was frustrating me

I know people know the Doom Patrol are the weird heroes, but I don't think people think about how weird Beast Boy's origin is.
He turned into a monkey
Taking some more suggestions for Player's Choice trivia, who's got some?
....raven
Was the Red always a part of his origin, or did they introduce that later?
Harley Quinn
DC adaptations like films and such
deathstroke and family
That came later! The Red didn't even exist when Beast Boy debuted.
Superman :)
Beast Boy predates the Red by thirty odd years
I think only in the n52
Harley Quinn or Btas trivia?
OK, that's enough! Let's wrap up trivia!
Or dcau trivia in general would be cool
Remember when Beast Boy had red fur?
We didn't even talk about the Protector my favourite titan

Thanks for playing everybody! Trivia next week will be on <t:1726624800:f>!
The topic: BATMAN DAY!
Nananana

BTW, I want to give special mention to the guesses of WUBS and WUBC. Apparently Wolfman just couldn't decide which network the show was on and would change it on the fly, which is funny
it's at 3am for me
Stay tuned for a poll to determine next month's Player's Choice topic!
Maybe it's syndicated
Bye
I'm a big Batman fan so I might stay up for it
I am happy that I got on the board
Local theater is doing a rerun of 89 Batman for Batman day, so that'll be nice
thank you sir, have a nice day!
lets goooo!
(In the event of a tie, I act as the ultimate decider.)
Thanks for doing these votes!
Vote for Transmetropolitan folks, it's severely underrated and more people should be encouraged to read it
Let's all take a trip to The City
w campaigning
No one else for Raven and JSA? 😭😭😭
Also just curious, is Harley Quinn a vote for Harley Quinn in general, or the cartoon "Harley Quinn"?
I meant the character in general
Harley Quinn the character
Wait which time will these most likely be at
Cause I love both ones in the lead but I’d also want to make sure I can be there
TBD!
Oh man I missed it
