Most of the Tiny Titans will all be members of the Teen Titans at some point (not all necessarily at the same time.) They all go to school together at Sidekick City Elementary. They also go on field trips, play in their tree house and even in the Bat Cave. Everyone gets along for the most part and even those characters with the saddest and darkest stories get a chance to have fun and be goofy in this series.

Adorable! Fun for the whole family! That's all you really need to know!
That said, a little bit of comics wonkery. What's interesting about this series is that it strips the Teen Titans down to their bare essentials. Instead of an action-driven comic with powers and tactics and convoluted storylines, it's a funny comic with personalities and two-page stories. Powers get used once in a while, and there are no fights at all -- but Darkseid is the school janitor at Sidekicks Elementary, and the hall...more

I really don't understand this. It's clearly intended for very young readers, but are they going to have any idea what is going on? Why include so many characters? I lost count, there are at least 20 different Titans and villains from 40+ years of Teen Titans comic books (including two different Wonder Girls). All are included with little or no hint of who they are. Some aren't even named until many pages in. And at least of few of the punch lines would be lost on anyone who hasn't read the Wolf...more
As an adult reader, Tiny Titans did nothing for me. I wasn't really drawn in, and I have no real desire to read more if it is a series. The premise seems to be that all these kids are super heroes, or sidekicks... Batman, Alfred and Commissioner Gordon make appearances. I can see why young kids might enjoy this graphic novel, with the bright colors, action and creative super heroes and animals throughout. The super powers make for some interesting action sequences. It also briefly outlines what...more

We all loved this one! Shannon Hale recommended these graphic novels/comic books on her blog, and since I'm all about S.H. I asked my library to get some of these in. This is the first that we've tried of the series, and I read it once out loud to the kids and we all laughed. Then they re-read it. Both of them have read it multiple times, and to me... that's success! The characters are kids, funny ones, and it's very child-appropriate. I have another of these on reserve at my library and we're a...more
This is so cute I almost couldn't take it. The art and writing (and mazes and puzzles!) present this as a children's comic, and it really could be. But there's jokes that require some pretty decent backstory. Fortunately, somebody who's watched the Teen Titans cartoon would probably be doing fine. Would a young child who didn't know all of that enjoy it? Probably. It's cute and fun and is much more about kids being kids than superheroics.
I was looking for good "all ages" comics, and this fits the bill. The superheroes are tiny - and in elementary school. Tree houses, crushes, and playground battles fill this first trade.
Silly and cute, with adorable illustrations, there are enough inside jokes to make this fun for an adult comics fan to enjoy sharing it with the children in their lives.

This is a fun little ofshoot of DC comic book characters for younger kids to read. I found it cute and funny at times and my 6 year old loved it. The blurbs are short and easy to read and the pictures are more than appropriate for all ages. This is a cool way to get kids interested in reading, even if it is a comic book.
I feel like I should hate this because it's nauseatingly cute and obviously intended for a much younger audience, but...there's just something about it...
Probably not the kind of thing that I'm going to want to read every single issue of, but I liked what I read.

Cute. An all-ages book that is also perfect for the grownup comic fan especially since there are a lot of in-jokes from the Teen Titans and other DC comics (Batman, for e.g.) that I doubt the kids will understand.
Adorable and fun. Not really any overarching storyline, but this was written for very young children, so there doesn't need to be. Just fun characterization.
Loved Nightwing's disco suit nod.

This book is very funny, and is good for both adults who know the characters, and kids who don't. My son is 8, and he loves Tiny Titans. This is volume 1, and contains issues 1-6.
I especially love Robin's costume change, and any scene involving Raven. Okay, Terra throwing rocks at Beast Boy is pretty amusing too.
I'm gonna come out and say it: I love reading this. It's a total guilty pleasure, but it's silly, simply, and fun to read.
Lots of fun. Great for the younger reader, and us old ones. Think Peanuts with super heroes.
We are enjoying the start of the Tiny Titans series, and look forward to reading more! The stories are short, fun, sweet, and silly in a way that is appealing to both 5 year old and 44 year old.
Nice reading for young kids...kids who have read 20+ years of teen Titans comics!
I love this book so much! Even though it is a short-read, it is entertaining and very funny!
Comic book for young children. A favorite in our house.
