Hey everyone. I haven't started writing the next New Titans episode yet, since I had to focus on writing some essays for college. I am going to try to finish the next episode this month, but we'll see how that works out. For now, I think it's about time to respond to some reviews…

From Guest

Here is an idea perhaps the team think Tara died but was actually picked up by Waller and forced on to the suicide squad.

No. Just no. I have already planned out Tara's character arc in advance and honestly what you're suggesting is a terrible idea, because the Suicide Squad have no place in her story. I have my reasons for why I use each character. And I feel like making Tara a member of the Squad would just be a distraction rather than a natural progression. So now.

Raven and Robin are the same age - 15 years old

As for Starfire, she is 16 years old.

Um, no. They're not. If you're referring to the original animated series, they never state the ages of the characters. You're just stating your own headcanons, not facts. And Robin has to at least be sixteen if he's driving a motorcycle. Also, this is a reboot. The characters can be as old as I want them to be. If I said that Robin is sixteen at the beginning of New Titans, then he's sixteen. If I said that Starfire is fifteen at the beginning of New Titans, then she's fifteen. If I said that Raven is fourteen at the beginning of New Titans, then she's fourteen. End of discussion.

From Eris

Very big chapter. So awesome and fascinating. Sad what happens to Kate and Beast Boy. Really hope that Beast Boy and Jason could try to remake their friendship after some meetings and long talks about everything. I really liked their friendship. It gave Beast Boy someone that he could (partly?) relate to outside of the Titans and could talk to about problems, situations, ... It also helped Jason a bit to not be totally drastic and gave him someone he could talk about some of his problems. Wonder if Terra and Raven will get now in a relationship? I hope so. Please update soon again.

I'm really glad that you enjoyed it. As for if Terra and Raven will now get in a relationship? *laughter* Yeah, like it's going to be that simple. Especially since Raven already has a boyfriend who is about to make things really complicated…

And huge thanks to JP-Ryder for all the reviews that he left. I really appreciate them and I hope that he continues to enjoy New Titans.

That would be all for now, but I have something else for my readers. A treat. I mentioned before that I have considered several potential prequels and spin-offs set in the New Titans universe. One of them is about this universe's version of the Justice League. This prequel and other spin-offs probably aren't likely to happen, but I still like imagining them because it gives this world that I've created a bit more history. So I took the time to flesh out my idea for "New Justice League" by creating a cast list of main characters and supporting characters for the first season. Antagonists and guest appearances would be a different list that I may create some other time, but for now I thought this would be a fun glimpse into what a Justice League series in this universe would look like. The roster is based on the Post-Crisis version of the Justice League, which actually had Black Canary as a founding member. None of the Trinity are founders or main characters (in the first season at least), since they have gotten plenty of focus in previous adaptations and I thought having them out of focus could be an interesting change of pace. A lot of inspiration is drawn from the comic "JLA: Year One" which shows the early days of the Post-Crisis Justice League. Feel free to ask any questions if you want to know more about this hypothetical prequel, I would be more than happy to answer them. I hope "New Justice League" at least intrigues you.

Premise: Years before there were Titans in Jump City, five heroes worked together to defeat an invasion of Earth by Appellaxian warriors. Deciding to form a permanent organization to confront menaces that they couldn't fight individually, they dubbed themselves the Justice League and set up a secret base in Happy Harbor. Among the threats that this newly founded team will face in their early days is an international criminal organization known as Locus…
