I was so excited for this next volume given the last 2 were so well written, illustrated, and brought to life. I feel like this is a step back in quality a little and things do jump around a little too much here vs other volumes, reminds me of the pacing of the first two volumes. Starfire doesn't ger her name here which is a little dissappointing. There's good chemistry with cyborg/Starfire & starfire/Robin which I love to see. The additional boyfriend and lynch angle for HIVE is a bit much and sometimes I did really wanna smack Kira. But overall I still enjoyed this and am looking forward to a true teen titan group novel in the next volume!! I really like the current team and power sets, plus their backstories are all so much better compared to some comics in recent years. EDS Starfire is a highlight, love to see it! Until fall 2025, I'll just be waiting in anticipation....
