This week sees the launch of Titans #1 but looks like Beast Boy will have to wait till October to learn how he got his eye back again.
This week sees the launch of Titans #1, a new series reviving the characters from Teen Titans in their own ongoing series. And it seems that as of July, they will be getting another series, Tales Of The Titans, each spotlighting a different member of the team, beginning with Starfire in Tales Of The Titans. Well it looks like Beast Boy will have to wait till October and Tales Of The Titans #4 for his own spotlight issue, where we will learn how he got his eye back. Which, for a shapeshifter, you wouldn’t think would be a great deal, but clearly it is.
This is how it went down in Dark Crisis Of Infinite Earths #1. Though it wasn’t fatal…
It did seem that his lost eye was going to be a permanent thing, even for a shapeshifter. Promotions of the series however show a Beast Boy with both eyes looking fine.
And we are told in Titans #1 that he won’t have to shapechange into a one-eyed trouser snake or anything… we will just have to wait until October for Beast Boy’s solo issue.
Though he may have some subconscious issues to still attend to, when he’s in battle.
Looks like he has still has some unstated reason to go for the eyes… let’s see what happens when he meets up with Deathstroke again… Titans ‘1 is pubkished by DC Comics on Tueasday.

The Titans have stepped up to become the DCU’s premier superhero team, and all eyes are on them! Who are Starfire, Raven, Donna Troy, and Beast Boy? Where do they come from, and what do they stand for? All will be revealed in Tales of the Titans, an all-new series of spotlight issues in the spirit of the beloved 1980s classic Tales of the New Teen Titans! First up is alien princess and warrior Starfire, whose huge heart, huger hair, and fiery fists have made her a fan-favorite member of the team! When a spaceship bearing Tamaranean markings crash-lands on Earth, Starfire goes on a solo mission to uncover its origins. But what awaits her on that journey will bring her back to the earliest days of her youth, to memories of two sisters eternally at war…and perhaps the chance to keep history from repeating itself.
