It was only a couple of weeks ago that we shared the Full Official Trailer for DC Universe streaming service original series “Titans”. This series was the first for the streaming service and continues to bring the adventures of the Teen Titans to the small screens of your favorite devices. The second season has arrived and is now available to stream on a weekly basis. This is different from the Netflix streaming which permits and encourages binge-watching. Let’s review the official poster, premise and casting down below.
Premise: Titans focuses on a group of young superheroes who form the titular superhero team to combat evil and other perils. The first incarnation of the team to appear in the series consists of Dick Grayson, Batman’s former vigilante partner turned police detective, Kory Anders, an extraterrestrial afflicted by amnesia, Rachel Roth, an empath pursued by dangerous forces, and Garfield “Gar” Logan, a shapeshifter formerly with the Doom Patrol. In the first season, Rachel comes to Dick for protection from her pursuers, which leads to them meeting and teaming up with Kory and Gar. The team eventually learns that Rachel is being targeted by her demonic father Trigon, who seeks to enslave the world.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: As previously disclosed, I am not a subscriber to the service and only gave it a couple of months try when it first became available. That means I’ve only managed to see “3” episodes of “Titans” and while I liked it, I cannot add another service onto my credit card. It’s my hope that this stuff eventually makes its way over to Netflix so more people can enjoy it. What about you readers? Are you subscribers to this service? Will you be giving it a whirl based on this show returning based on love of the characters? Chime in down below with your thoughts because we always love hearing them.
