I don't get what this is... Are they like, telling eachother their real names or something? And getting the (may god forgive me for speaking the woman's tongue) "ick" from it?
No, I'm pretty sure Conner is a Johns invention when Young Justice was being folded into a retreaded Teen Titans gimmick.
Nobody prefers TT2003 over YJ98. The only ones who care about TT2003 are desperate fujos looking for panels of Tim and Kon standing near each other. Or insecure Timbros forcing themselves to shill the glory days of Tim being a brooding macho Mary Sue, instead of the ageing bisexual has-been that he currently is.
In the real glory days, Superboy was Superboy or Kon. Not Conner. For that matter, Raven used to be Raven, not Raven Roth or Rachel Roth or Beast Boy's goth girlfriend.
There's been a trend of artists online doing fanart based on Young Justice and the general 90's era of these characters. Cassie's Byrne look is popular; her being a scrawny, kinda butch tomboy.
What's funny to me is the OP artist is in their early 20's, so stuff like the new 52 was technically pitched to them, and if not that, the Johns 2003 stuff...and none of them care about that at all. The whole post-YJ era has almost no far art or new readers, where as the YJ era has fanart around the world...and it's before most of these people were even born.
Well of course. I've seen more people on Cinemaphile claim they care about post Johns Cassie than anywhere else, but 100% of the time it's just them liking her drawn with big boobies.
I grew up on back issues cause they were cheap, most my favorites are like 20/10 years before my actual era.
It's not that reading backissues is weird, it's that those new 52 and 2000's books were explicitly made for new/casual readers as a fresh start, and they didn't seem to resonate at all. YJ is relatively continuity heavy (in so much that these characters circumstances are very of the era) yet the character writing is strong enough to overshadow that.
The New 52 Teen Titans redesigns were so laughably bad none of their costumes stuck around for that long. Maybe Cassie's lasted the longest because not enough people cared.
>Maybe Cassie's lasted the longest because not enough people cared.
I thought it was decent for what it was, even the nonsensical hood. The magical rogue look was kind of charming.
I get it. Shortened nicknames are fine but the full names are not. I can see Nightwing strolling by and Tim calls him Richard and Nightwing smiles and calls him Timothy which causes Tim to recoil in disgust.
I don't like it. Even putting aside any in-universe concerns about their identity, superhero names are cool. I'd much rather hear them calling each other cool names like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman rather than Clark, Bruce, and Diana, which are just... names.
I always kinda liked how Diana always seemed to insist on calling Superman "Kal"
I always disliked that, it just seems to be done to make her seem more alien and cold
Maybe its an ancestral name honor thing?
As if "Clark" is a slave name?
It's a personal name but it isn't his secret identity. It's friendly and not alienating.
I still can’t believe all 4 of them turned out to be queer
Why are teen heroes so gay?
is that a rhetorical question?
good question. might be from the lex side of the family (seeing he was a ginger and people usually are dyslexic when it comes to them)

The joke is that they're using their full names instead of their abbreviated ones. Cas, Bart, Con and Tim.
But Superboy is usually called Conner anyway. Plus he picked his name after Superman gave him the Kryptonian name of Kon-El.

Ah, 'little sheltered suburban girl with """"""""catholic guilt""""""" humor'
it's children superheroes acting like children, don't really need to put much more thought into it than that
Why is Connor brown? Why is Cassandra a dude?
Conner is not only solar powered, he also spent a large chunk of his life living in Hawaii.
As for Cassie, that's a you problem.
Because he lived in Hawaii.

Because the only good run is the 90's one.

Yeah I was born in the 80's and started off by reading my dad's comic collection from the 70's. It's not that weird.

It's the least worst one but it still screams 90s and early 00s teen edge that Jim Lee only knows.

Sure
I just don't like it when they use them when out in public or even around villains.
