- What is it, friend Robin? - No!
Tell us what's wrong, bro?
Closer.
Now that I have your attention,
I have a story I'd like to share.
- Ah... - Really?
That is the crying of the wolf.
Why didn't you just start with that?
Because, you would have just ignored me.
It's true. We like ignoring you.
This better be good, fool!
Oh, it's good! Very good!
I'm going to tell you the story of how I formed...
the Teen Titans!
Uh... Didn't we do that already?
Yes, I remember it very clearly.
- We's definitely did that. - I think, like, twice.
Then this will be the third time!
- Just relax. - Think about them good origins.
Besides, you told those other versions, this will be my version.
And it will be...
serious!
So, don't expect a lot of laughs from this story.
Just a whole lot of... Cool!
- That ain't cool, bro. - Yes, it is!
Now, let me set the stage!
I was just a sidekick working for Batman,
but I wanted to make a name for myself.
And I wasn't sure I'd ever get out of his shadow.
The city of Gotham is in your debt once again, Batman.
All in a night's work, Jim.
But, I can't take all the credit.
Robin was a big help out there.
Oh, don't tell me I missed him! Was he here, too?
- I still am, Commissioner. - Who said that!
- I think it was a ghost! - Not a ghost... Just me.
Robin? Where are you?
- Just... a little to your left. - Where?
Ah, there he is. In your shadow.
Well, once again, Gotham City thanks you, caped crusaders.
Now, Robin... Robin, where are you!
- Still in your shadow! - Oh.
It's always going to be this way.
Shadows are my thing.
I think it's time I stepped out of yours.
You're... leaving? It's the short shorts, isn't it?
I can get you longer shorts, if that'll make a difference.
It's not the shorts. No, maybe, a little.
I need to find my own city, and be my own hero!
Good luck, Robin... wherever you are.
- I'm still here. - Who said that!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I know you going for "cool," but no one's gonna believe this story!
Yeah! Who's ever heard of a grim and gritty Batman!
Everybody!
That's why he's called The Dark Knight!
This guy?
If you are going to want the people to believe you,
we suggest the tale of your story be not as tall.
This is my tale! And it will be as tall as I want!
Now, let me continue.
Crime fighter's log. 1.2747.
Jump City is a cesspool.
I can't bring justice to the streets alone. I need a sidekick.
Preferably, several sidekicks.
I'll call them teammates to be polite.
But everyone will know they're sidekicks.
Networking apps...
Welcome, RobDog_747
Let's put together a team.
Team assemble mode.
Uh... Not older than me...
Boring... Boring.
Too cool. Ooh!
The Cyborg.
I doubt anyone will be breaking your rushing records
anytime soon.
Who are you?
I'm looking for a few team players. Interested?
I'll never be part of a team again.
- Doesn't have to be that way. - Oh, yeah? Look at me!
What team could I play for, huh?
What team would have me!
- A team of heroes! - Oh, my goodness...
Are you from the Justice League?
I always wanted to join the Justice League!
- Well... - Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash!
Those guys are awesome! Where do I sign up?
You are about to make all my dreams come true!
- It's not... - Justice League, baby!
Actually...
Grandma, the Justice League wants me to join!
Yeah, the Justice League!
- It's not the Justice League! - Oh... I'll call you back later, Grandma.
It's a new team. For new heroes.
A fresh start.
Think about it.
And I need a wild card.
Huh! Beast Boy.
Need some brains after those two.
Raven. Says she has demons.
Don't we all?
Join us!
I will never join you!
Never!
Azarath Metrion Zinthos!
You're not scared?
- Of course I am. - So, you know I'm dangerous.
I know you want to do what's right.
With your power, you can do a lot of good.
You need to leave!
- You don't have to be alone anymore. - I said leave!
You can show the world you're not a monster!
No, I mean, leave, my favorite show is about to start.
Oh, sorry.
Seen it. Seen it. Starfire.
The Princess of Tamaran. Comfortable, I hope?
Clorbag rockshow warblarg!
Such a formidable spirit!
Your sister was wise to hand you over.
Varblernelk!
Lord varblernelk!
I've come a long way to find you.
Security is offline for now, but we don't have much tim...
You're welcome. I didn't realize I was so irresistible.
You are the completely resistible. Tamaraneans have
the ability to learn languages through the lip contact.
- Now we can communicate. - Oh... Okay.
But, you felt something, right?
- A spark, maybe? - No.
But I did detect the strong odor coming from the mouth hole.
I... I had tuna for lunch.
- I want you to join my team! - But, what help would I be to you?
My own sister has stolen my throne and sold me into the slavery.
I have nothing. I am the alone.
You don't have to be.
Hopefully, they'll join me at a dramatic moment
when I need them most.
Guess I'm going to have to do this on my own.
- You are the not on your own. - None of us are.
Nots ever again.
- What you guys waiting for? - Your command.
Let's do this, Titans!
No! Wait. Titans, go!
And, that's the true story of how the Titans came together.
- That was so cool! - It's got that good drama.
And it was so emotional.
A very satisfying tale, friend Robin.
So, do you think people will believe it?
- Don't know. - No.
- Oh, no. You crazy? - Of course, not.
