I take back everything […]

Boomb Tube: Teen Titans Go! (Away)

By | Apr 24, 2013 | Columns

This is not going to be a pretty week. For some reason, the only superhero cartoon that aired this week was Teen Titans Go! and I feel uneasy describing TTG! has having to do with either of those things. Why? Imagine that you’re going on to DeviantArt and someone’s drawn some fanart of the original Teen Titans show. The art […]

Maybe it’s the contradictory writing or the subplots that bring Ollie’s relatively exciting segments to a screeching halt but this show can […]
