Haha, they were my favorite characters during Teen Titans so to see all three of them featured in this cartoon makes me happy.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.
I hate Superboy's t-shirt & jeans look.
I like Tim Drake but I prefer his costume to have some green in it.
I wish Bart was Impulse not Kid Flash.
I like Artemis's design. Her new codename is better than Arrowette or Speedy.
At first I thought Aqualad was Arsenal. I don't understand why they felt like they had to have Aqualad in this or why he had to His dyed hair looks goofy. be the Black character. They're are plenty of Black characters that they could've used. If they want to diversify the team, why didn't they stop at Aqualad? Why can't we also have Thai Artemis, Latino Robin, Iranian Superoy, etc? I have heard that he's actually Black Manta's kid, which could be cool.

Black Manta is a black dude?
WHat other black teen heroes do they have? I guess they could have de-aged Mr. Terrific or Jakeem and the Thunder

Thunder could work. She isn't that old.
But Superboy's Jean and T-Shirt look works. I mean, compared to to the leather jacket, ear ring and the fade....

LOL @ the Fade...
Yeah that look is close to his comic one, albeit some nice additions...

Aw... Thunder would have been sweet, but then again, I'm a Thunder/Grace fan, so I would have demanded Grace appear at some point...
But this looks pretty cool.

I like the designs, glad its nothing like teen titans, don't know how the team dynamic will work as I know next to nothing about most of these characters.

This looks pretty cool. I kinda wish they had Cassie on this team. Tim, Bart, Cassie, and Connors dynamic is awesome in the comics. I actually believe that they would be friends even if they were not working together.
The black Aqualad looks pretty cool. I just hope he is more of a "regular" black teen like Static Shock was. If he is some super serious stick in the mud who grew up on the ghetto side of West Atlantis I might shoot myself.

When I heard they were using an archer called Artemis, I just kind of assumed that it was going to be the amazonian (what with her being an Archer and being named Artemis), but from the description it doesn't sound like it's going to be her.

There's also Cyborg, Bumblebee, Steel II, Guardian II/Herald, Joto/Hotspot, & Firestorm II.
Black Manta has been revealed to be a Black dude underneath his helmet.
I like Miss Martian.
I still prefer Superboy's 90's costume when he was protector of Hawaii. This doesn't even even look like he's trying. Plus I get a Smallville vibe from it.
It'd be keen if it featured guest spots by Ambush Bug and Kyle Rayner, Green Lantern of art school.

It looks awesome, it really does. Great art, great characters and a story that seems like it could be deep and complex.

Shiney! This looks like it might be a really fun series, hopefully bridging the gap between the tone of JLU and TT cartoons... I'm excited :) Also, they have Miss Martian... what's not to love? Kind of a shame we have another series with no Wonder Girl though... Can't help but feel that Cassie should be on this team.

If I had my way I'd give them a mini version of Etrigan, or generally a teen hero with energy projection as a main power. They are a little lacking in that department.

I think its because they're staying away from the Teen Titans image (even though they added Teen Titans members). But they stuck with real (albeit reimagined) sidekicks (or former) of heroes. An energy projector would have been nice. You have three fighters (Artemis, Aqualad and Robin), Muscles (Miss Martian and Superboy), Speed (Kid Flash), and elemental (Aqaulad)

If I am not mistaken Artemis is a re imagined character or a new character entirely, right? So the whole theme of using "real" sidekicks just went out the door, either way its not really that hard to add an energy projector who still exists in the DC universe, and if they wanted a green lantern no matter what they could have gone with Kyle, he's young enough.

She's reimagined...well really she's Arrowette just given a different name. I'm not disagreeing that one would have been nice but I'm guessing they had their reasons...
I heard that the Robin is Dick and the Kid Flash is Wally. Which kinda sucks...then again I should have realized that when they said Robin has only been doing it for 4 years, Superman premiered 10 years ago.
