Team Titans is a comic book published by DC Comics that spun out of DC's New Titans series. It began in September 1992 and ended in September 1994. The Team Titans were first introduced as a shadowy group stalking the Titans. Their backstory was revealed in New Titans Annual #7 by writer Marv Wolfman, and were popular enough to merit their own series, which Wolfman also wrote. Phil Jimenez and Jeff Jensen took over writing duties with issue #13, and co-wrote the book until its cancellation.
While Wolfman was initially given the title indefinitely, he chose to leave the title to devote more time to New Titans and Deathstroke.[1] Creative differences between the new writing staff and editorial, combined with low sales, led to the book's cancellation in the crossover event, where the Titans are killed when the timeline collapses.[2]
One of several Team Titans teams from the future, they function as a rebellion against the dictator Lord Chaos, the son of Donna Troy. The Titans travel back in time to prevent Chaos' birth, but instead convince Donna to give up her powers, ensuring her unborn son will be equally powerless.
During the Zero Hour event, the Titans are revealed to have been created by Monarch to serve him. When Monarch is defeated, the timelines he created are destroyed, erasing the Titans from existence. Mirage, Terra, and Deathwing survive, with the former two joining the main Titans team.[3]
