Teen Titans, Vol. 1: Full Throttle

Teen Titans (2016)

by Adam Glass, Bernard Chang (Illustrator)

Spinning out of the events of Justice No Justice , the world has changed...and according to Robin, the old ways of fighting crime aren't cutting it anymore. So the son of Batman has decided to put together a new team of young heroes who aren't afraid to do things differently.

There's Kid Flash, who's done taking orders from the older Flashes...or any adult. Red Arrow, the only person on Earth besides Robin who knows what it's like to have a superhero for a dad and a psychotic assassin for a mom. Crush, Lobo's daughter, who has super-strength and a serious resemblance to her dad. Djinn, an actual 4,000-year-old genie, with all the incredible power, but also all of the incredible limitations. And Roundhouse, a Viewtube superstar who built a suit that turns him into a human wrecking ball, but even that doesn't necessarily help him grasp the seriousness of the Titans' mission.

Together they're on the trail of a mysterious villain known as the Other who has the Titans marked for death!

But Robin has a secret weapon he's using to track the Other--so secret that even the other Titans don't know about it. And if his team ever found out, the group might not be together anymore...

It's a whole new direction for the wildest team of Teen Titans yet, from writer Adam Glass ( Suicide Squad ) and artist Bernard Chang ( Nightwing ). Collects Teen Titans Special #1 and Teen Titans #20-24.

Damian Wayne puts together a new Teen Titans team that's tired of taking orders from adults. They are going to do what they think is right, no matter what. Kid Flash is still around, Red Arrow finally joins (Emi is pretty badass.), and new heroes Crush (Lobo's daughter), Djinn, and Roundhouse (a nerdier version of Bunker) join. They, of course, all have secrets that I'm sure will come out at some point. Bernard Chang's art is really good.

Wow this book is bad.

World: The art is okay. I normally like Chang a lot and his run with Green Lantern was great, but for some reason here, I don’t know if it’s the colours or he was in a rush but the line work here is a bit off, the facial expressions are a bit weird, the body poses are a bit wonky. The world building here is okay, it’s very basic and slap dashed together. If you think clearly about Damien’s plan it doesn’t really make that much sense. The idea of the prison is questionable and the difference between this and the last team is not all that much. There are a lot of character origins this time around cause it’s a new team and a lot of the world building it tied to that but man these characters are terrible (more below).

Story: Wow the writing is really bad, the dialog is painful to read and the story itself was choppy and lacks any focus whatsoever. The characters are just so terribly written that it seeps into every part of the book making this book nearly rage inducing. Damien failed with the first Teen Titans book as a leader and now this is exactly what happens in the first book by Percy verbatim, we have a new group of characters, a lot of stupid pointless contrived tension and conflict and a really bad team leader and it’s the same thing again. The idea of the villain behind the book is half baked and the world building is not well established enough to create any sense of threat and dread. Glass did a poor job on Suicide Squad and now he’s here doing the Teen Titans and it makes me sad. This book does not need to rush, why are we not doing it more slowly so this team can build as a team and work together, this story right now is so janky.

Characters: Wow no one on this team is appealing to read and they are all jerks, asses, idiots and just mean and selfish people. The banter is terrible and the dialog as a whole is so bad. Why is Kid Flash still so annoying and such a problematic character (he was terrible in Flash, Teen Titans and now Teen Titans again), this version of Wally is nothing but whiny, ungrateful and just truly a dick. Then there’s the cliched muscle that is Crush which is not appealing, what happened to the really cool design Jorge Jimenez created with the cool chains, not once did we see any chains in this arc, did Chang just remove them? Then there’s the stupid idiot character that is a racial stereotype that is Roundhouse, I don’t even want to start with this one, a nearly racist character that makes me so angry. Angry Emi which is nowhere near as well written as what she was in Green Arrow’s book and a boring Raven analog. Argh. These characters are not only poorly designed they are so poorly written.

The writing is so bad on this book.

Onward to the next book!

Um bom começo para os Jovens Titãs, que com uma formação inusitada, consegue criar um grupo bem distinto, mas que os membros se complementam e formam um time que consegue dar conta do recado. Com o líder sendo o Damian, meu Robin favorito, é de se esperar que a formação seja diferenciada. Ele recrutou o Kid Flash e a Arqueira Vermelha que são mais “compreensíveis” de se ter na equipe, mas o recrutamento da Djinn e da Esmagadora foram surpreendentes, sem contar a adição do jamanta que é bem divertida.

Esse primeiro encadernado mostra esse recrutamento sendo realizado pelo Damian, que após um encontro com o Máscara Negra, devido a sua gangue explodir um restaurante de imigrantes, fica indignado e busca outros heróis mirins que também estão passando por um período de revolta, que são os casos da Arqueira e do Kid Flash. O recrutamento dos demais membros possuem outras especificidades que são spoilers.

Além de mostrar o recrutamento da equipe, também acompanhamos algumas situações contra antagonistas que a equipe precisa lidar, colocando em pratica (ou não) seu treinamento enquanto equipe, o que é o maior desafio deles até então, pois nem todos sabem agir em conjunto.

Também há o cenário de desconfiança na equipe, que em alguns momentos, é possível ser identificado quando o Robin não participa das reuniões e/ou treinamentos da equipe, assim como os mistérios por trás dos poderes da Djinn.

Foi um começo interessante da equipe, que me deixou curioso para a continuidade das aventuras desses heróis, assim como entender melhor as interações entre os membros do time, principalmente no que tange o segredo que Damian está escondendo.

Story: New writer, new feel. So the old squad is mostly out, replaced by this brand new squad. We have Damien as leader still, Flash is their speedster, but everyone else is new. Have Crush who's Lobo's daughter, Red Arrow (I love you Emi!) and Djinn and Roundhouse. This crazy, weird, and insane team all work together to take down criminals but this time they might be crossing the line a little. Not as friendly, and not as goody two shoes as the last teen titans team, this one might get a little dirty when Damien is playing them all a little.

Art: The fights are great, the detail to the characters is solid, and no real complaints here. The extra covers are amazing and make it worth it for that alone.

Enjoyment: I dug a lot of the characters chit chatting. I thought the 2nd half was way stronger. Love triangles begin, people betraying each other, some team work moments, and some really funny moments too. Art is a nice plus as well.

What didn't work: Took awhile to get on the same page with the new team. It didn't always all come together well.I also thought Flash was kind of a asshole in this at times.

Overall fun, while not mind-blowing. I hope it picks up some because it's just good, and with this team it could be great. A 3 out of 5.

After No Justice, the Teen Titans have new members, a new mission statement, and a new creative team to go along with it.

New series writer Adam Glass has a hard job with this first volume - he has to reintroduce the Teen Titans, as well as three brand new characters, and make it work in a post-No Justice world, all while continuing the series numbering instead of restarting from issue 1. I'd call it a great success overall however.

The Teen Titans Special works really well as a recruitment drive issue, giving some general background on the three new members, Crush, Djinn, and Roundhouse, while reintroducing Damian Wayne, Kid Flash, and Red Arrow to readers. We then launch into their first big storyline as they attempt to track down The Other, a mysterious organization that the rest of the DCU seems to have forgotten about. There's also a secret jail, and a mystery benefactor thrown in for fun too.

On art, the Special is drawn by Robson Rocha who seems to be doing the rounds at DC at the moment, and his art's spectacularly detailed. The rest of the main series is by Bernard Chang however, who is always a reliable artist - he's had consistent runs on Demon Knights, Green Lantern Corps, and Batman Beyond for example, and his Teen Titans looks set to take its place in that ranking too.

For the first time since the first arc of Teen Titans' rebirth, I feel like we're back on track again. Most of the previous run tread water for ages due to endless derailment for crossovers, but this one really has the potential to do something special again. (Oh, there's a Deathstroke crossover on the horizon. Maybe not then.)

[Corey Allen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Before, I start, I would just like to say that this is the teen Titians, I'm used to:

So, it took a bit to get used to this new team. But once I did I really enjoyed it. Robin recruits a brand new team consisting of: Kid Flash, Crush, Red arrow, Roundhouse, and lastly Djinn. Between all the team there's a lot of chemistry. At out of all the new characters I loved Red Arrow. I mean, what can I say? She was just cool.

And of course, how would could we forget Robin. He's got a bit of a dark side now. And I love it. By far my favorite part of the book. I couldn't find a page of it online, but just trust me, it's amazing.

The art was fantastic. It goes great with the action. No complaints. Although why does robin's lip look weird on the cover. Is that just me?

Recommended.

No Justice did an odd thing to the Titans books. The main one got derailed so badly it is now cancelled. This one, forced some new characters into the story and got rid of a team that was finally coming together.
This new group is strange and these kids are barely starting to get a hold of themselves. Damian is definitely not that kind of leader who holds a team together, but we´ll see.
This team has the smell of any of those forgettable iteration of the Teen Titans, I hope they can come together and leave some mark. So far, I’m a bit on the fence. Out of the new ones, only Roundhouse seems interesting to me. Kid Flash is interesting. And Damian keeps getting on my nerves. I liked how the old team balanced him, this time there is no one around to have an interesting interaction with him. And this whole Djinn thing seems like already seen one too many times.

[Georgie Zakka · Rating 3 out of 5]

A great cast of characters and an interesting plot. The characters don’t work well together immediately which gives it a sense of reality and makes it feel like this group needs time to truly become a team.

[Amanda [Novel Addiction] · Rating 3 out of 5]

Damian going dark. Cool.

[Rylan · Rating 3 out of 5]

This one surprised me, I initially had zero interest in it but I decided to give it a shot since I’ve been watching Titans and was in the mood to read something Titans related. I actually really enjoyed it, I liked the premies of the book and I found the team to be endearing. I think what turned me off initially was that I thought this was a continuation of what Percy did to the Teen Titans where it’s Damian and (not so) friends, if I wanted to read that I would go read Super Sons. I was wrong, Glass gives all the characters attention so it doesn’t feel like a Robin solo and more of a team book. The team works well together, there are a lot of interesting dynamics between the characters and I feel like Damian can actually relate to this team. This is definitely a different take on the Teen Titans, they are more hardcore with most of the characters having dark pasts and secrets. I’d say if the Titans had a version of X-Force this would be it. The art in here is fantastic and fits the tone of the story perfectly. I would’ve rated this four stars but there is some really cringey dialogue that tries too hard to be cool and relate to today’s teens and honestly does this ever go well? There were multiple incidents where I rolled my eyes because the dialogue was so “how do you do fellow teens.”

I enjoyed it but also didn’t....

Djinn- I feel like she’s meant to be like a knock off Raven and she just rubs me the wrong way.

Roundhouse I’m not too fond of too, his character just seems so bleh- just a comedic relief but in a slapstick humour way. Honestly I don’t feel a need for his character to be there.

Red arrow is awesome such a strong female character.

Crush is an okay character, I don’t know much about her but I feel like her character is so cliche with the “I’m a tough girl that doesn’t need anybody - I can solved problems with my fists”

Wallace is soooo annoying! Why?! As a side kick to the flash I find it hard to believe that he’s not a team player.

Robin ... he’s okay.

I don’t like how they are already trying to build romance between Djinn and Damian, I barely got into the first comic and already romance thrown in my face ... how about some build up of friendship first ? How about some genuine bonding first not just an attraction for power ?

And also why is EVERY SINGLE SUPERHERO HAVE PARENTAL ISSUES ? Is there really no other way to relate to teens and young adults without the characters identifying with daddy issues? Seriously roundhouse is the first DC character that doesn’t have parental issues and angst (that I can think of)

I didn't really like this at all. I love the new characters but I just... Don't like how Damian is acting. I know half his family is #Evil but this isn't who he's been for the past 3 years of comics. HIS BEST FRIEND IS SUPERBOY! LIKE GENUINE FRIENDSHIP, NO "IM JUST TOLERATING HIM".
ACTUAL. BEST. FRIENDS.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Such is the case with the updated 2019 “Teen Titans”, a DC title that has gone through many different manifestations throughout its long life, starting in 1964, with Robin, Kid Flash, Aqua-Lad, and Wonder Girl.

In the 1980s, Marv Wolfman and George Perez resurrected the title, suffering from low sales, and turned it into one of the more popular titles in the DC line-up. Wolfman/Perez’s team of teen superheroes kept the original team but added Cyborg, the Changeling, Starfire, and Raven. Bigger villains, bigger stories, and bigger stakes equalled bigger sales.

A lot of time has passed between the Wolfman/Perez era and today, and a lot of stuff has happened in the DC universe that I know nothing about. Keep that in mind when reading my review, because I fully admit that I am completely ignorant about what’s happened in comics in the past 30 years.

The newer new Teen Titans, in the first volume “Full Throttle” (as written by Adam Glass and drawn by Bernard Chang) still has Robin as the leader of the group, only Robin is now Damian Wayne, son of Bruce Wayne. (I had no idea Batman had a son, and I have no idea who the mother is, so this was all quite a shock.)

Kid Flash is now a young black kid named Wallace West. He has a chubby little Asian friend that he recruits to the team to be a superhero named Roundhouse. Green Arrow’s daughter is Red Arrow, the more mature member of the group. There’s also a bad-ass punk chick named Crush (daughter of some superhero named Lobo that I know nothing about) and a 4,000-year-old genie, permanently stunted in the body of a teenage girl, named Djinn.

While somewhat darker in tone, with a bit more on-screen violence elevating it to a more PG-13 level, Glass/Chang’s “Titans” are, deep down, a familiar rehash of the Wolfman/Perez “Titans”, which is perfectly fine with me.

Robin is still a pretentious wanker constantly brooding about always being compared to Batman. Red Arrow is the new Wonder Girl. Crush has taken the place of Cyborg. Djinn (who holds a lot of dark secrets that may become a danger to the group) is the new Raven, and Roundhouse is just a fatter, nerdier version of the Changeling. Same ol’ same ol’.

Let me be clear: I’m not complaining. I like Glass/Chang’s re-vision. They’ve managed to keep the same Technicolor cheesy good fun that I loved about Wolfman/Perez’s “Titans”, just with more contemporary references and fewer limits on how naughty they can get.

I think I like the new team better than the old one.

[Robin · Rating 3 out of 5]

i am so conflicted about this. there is a perceptible increase in overall quality of writing compared to other rebirth era titans stuff, but it's done in the service of a series of character choices that i found just genuinely repulsive. the fact that i'm slogging through this kind of thing just to fill in the gaps of my damian reading really does go to show you how much i'm willing to go through for the little dork.

crush constantly threatening to stomp people was really doing it for me, though, ngl. like, if she's looking for volunteers... (and it seemed at least strongly implied that she was a lesbian, so!!)

[Shannon Appelcline · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sigh! Yet another Titans reboot.

But, Damian of course continues to be a great lead, and this team, despite so many newbies, starts to gel at the end as we learn more about their characters and interactions. The plot of the Other also has potential, although that potential doesn't really play out in this volume.

In the end, 3.5 stars, but it was trending up throughout the entire volume, so rounded to 4.

[Daniel Butcher · Rating 2 out of 5]

Honestly the team dynamic just doesn't work for me and I liked the earlier version of this group better.

[Sarospice · Rating 3 out of 5]

Damian continues to try to lead a Titans team. Hopefully the new characters will get personalities. CRUSH is just dumb. The most interesting aspects are Damian's prisons that no one knows about. Yet.

3.5 Stars.
I wish DC Comics would settle on a line up for Teen Titans. In this post "Dark Nights: Metal" universe, apparently they felt it was necessary to revamp the team. In fact, the first thing done in this volume is Robin (Damian Wayne) going around and creating the team, which now consists of: Robin; Kid Flash; Red Arrow (Emiko Queen); Crush, Lobo's daughter; Djinn, a 4000 year old Genie who looks like a 13 year old girl; and Roundhouse, a teenage media superstar who wears a suit that allows him to turn into a wrecking ball.

Luckily, the Volume does set itself up as a type of origin story for the team. They take on various villains such as Brother Blood and Black Mask, all in an effort to track down a mysterious villain known only as "The Other". A particularly violent encounter with villain Gizmo, sets off events that are important to the rest of the Volume: 1) Roundhouse taking a nuclear device into orbit and seemingly exploding and dying, and 2) Djinn, having become her own Master still needs a Master from time to time in order to access some of her stronger powers. She does this by giving her ring to Robin, allowing him to command her, and causing a tighter bond to be developed between them, indicating a possible future romantic relationship.

The team begins to train together so that they are able to work stronger together. Also, the low-level criminals that they are catching are not being turned into the police department... they are going into a small prison Robin has hidden underground, which he uses to interrogate them as he sees fit.

Kid Flash, feeling guilty for losing Roundhouse, goes to the fallen hero's house to explain what happened to his parents and discovers that he is still alive. Upon returning to the team, Roundhouse is officially made a Teen Titan.

While on the trail of "The Other", the team tracks down an assassin named Vic, chasing her and fighting with her. When they finally catch up and reach Vic's location, "The Other" blows up the building that they are in and they are trapped in the wreckage. Only through the intervention of Crush, who holds up the building, are they able to work together as a team and escape. There still seems to be some dissension in the ranks of the team though (particularly between Red Arrow and Djinn) and we'll have to wait until the next volume to see what becomes of that.

Recommend. Though I don't like the lineup changing so much, this team seems much more teen then past iterations.

[Cass Lee · Rating 1 out of 5]

Wow none of these characters are likeable holy shit how do you design a team where everyone is edgy and a dick and hates each other. Robin seems to hate Kid Flash but insists he’s on the team, but isn’t willing to work with him. Kid Flash hates everyone else but Roundhouse and he barely knows him, he literally just saw him on the internet and decided to recruit him. And he’s just annoying holy shit which shows with how he annoys the rest of the cast including Red Arrow. She seems to be written the same exact way as Damian here. Too edgy. Djin and Crush are alright if not a little basic so far, but they still don’t do anything to glue the team together either so the team doesn’t feel like one. And the point of the first volume is usually to come together but it shouldn’t feel like the team only exists out of studio mandate.

It’s really hard to go from Pete Davidson’s Young Justice to this. That team kinda formed by coincidence and even they were bickering a lot, it felt like general teenage banter. They didn’t set out for teamwork, they were just hanging out after an accidental team up and made a team because it turns out there was a spark, something that could be a team. The premise for this is set from the start. Damian wants to take the superhero code into his own hands so he creates a team of his own that happens to be called Teen Titans. He’s not even willing to train them, Red Arrow does most of that, he just fucks off to commit war crimes. Damian feels like he should be past making a team specifically for brutalizing and preemptively attacking criminals. The team really feels like it has no gel and no future. Damian already knows KF and Red Arrow and it feels like he has no additional chemistry with them. The plot sorta picks up at the end, but the characterization is laughable throughout. And laughable I mean I didn’t laugh because reading pre-teens being edgy and committing war crimes isn’t fun.

Teen Titans: Full Throttle continues where the previous trade paperback left off collecting five issues (Teen Titans #20–24) of the 2016 on-going series with Teen Titans Special and collects six interconnecting one-issue stories.

Teen Titans: Full Throttle has Damian Wayne forming a new Teen Titans – one that is more proactive in fighting villains. He collects Wally West as Kid Flash, Emiko Queen as Red Arrow, with new comers in Crush, Djinn, and Roundhouse. This new Teen Titans teams are no longer reacting to villains that would cause crimes, but prevent them by proactively pursue them and having Damian Wayne as Robin secretly imprisoning them.

Adam Glass penned the trade paperback. For the most part, it is written rather well. Glass creates a new team by balancing it off with three known established characters in Robin, Red Arrow, and Kid Flash and creating new ones in Crush – the daughter of Lobo, Djinn – a magical being, and Roundhouse – a metahuman who can metamorphose himself into multiple spherical forms. Glass cursory introduces the team and heads straight forward to the story by making this Teen Titans teams different from others as they are more proactive than other teams and willing to bend the rules to fight crime.

With the exception of one issue (Teen Titans Special) which was penciled by Robson Rocha, Bernard Chang penciled the entire trade paperback. Since he was the main penciler, the artistic flow of the trade paperback flowed exceptionally well. For the most part, I enjoyed his penciling style, despite the blockish style he has when doing faces, but somewhat enjoyable nevertheless.

All in all, Teen Titans: Full Throttle is a good continuation to what would hopefully be a wonderful series.

[Chance Petersen · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the comic that got me into DC comics. In fact, Adam Glass and Bernard Chang's run on TT is what ultimately got me into comics. Is it because it's this super amazing story arc? Not necessarily. I really only got into it because I was a big fan of the Teen Titans cartoon and wanted to explore that, and having a Teen Titans comic come out right around the time I was wanting to get into reading comics made it an easy choice.

That doesn't mean it still isn't a great run regardless. Characters like Roundhouse, Crush, Red Arrow and Kid Flash have been cemented as some of my favorites just from this run, and have allowed me to deeply explore Robin and let me get a clearer outlook at him.

But that's for my overall reading, not for this book. This book in particular gets the whole cast together and establishes some chemistry between them. Like Billy and Wallace's friendship, Emiko acting as a drill sergeant to the team, along with her bit of banter with Crush, Robin and Djinn, etc. It's a fun team element that I enjoyed reading, from them fighting Brother Blood, Gizmo, Golden Glider and more, and would recommend to readers to give a try.

[Amy · Rating 4 out of 5]

So, Damian abandons his newly founded Teen Titans team during the first issue of this book and sets out to create a new team that will 'toe the line.' The new(er? new again?) Teen Titans team are more like antiheroes than heroes - though whether or not the rest would approve of Robin's little prison is a murky issue considering they don't know about it - and they're a mess for most of this book; the cast of characters is so discordant I almost gave up on it. They only really start to gel as a team during the last issue of this TPB, and they've still got a loooong way to go.

I like Djinn and Crush, and Roundhouse was starting to grow on me by the end. However, Kid Flash and Red Arrow are both iffy characters for me, bordering on unlikable. Maybe it's that I only have room in my heart for one overly difficult, controlling, angsty teenager and Damian has already claimed the spot. I may or may not read more of this when it comes out; I haven't decided.

[Sara I · Rating 4 out of 5]

This Teen Titans series will cater to those who wish for more realistic heroes or vigilantes and those who are willing to toe or cross the line. It features some familiar names and costumes and some that I, at least, was being introduced to for the first time. While the teens are fighting for some independence to do things their own way, there are also elements that keep the story and characters to their ages, the comedic and flirty moments as well as some refreshingly gen z-esque moments like Roundhouse, a member who was recruited from the videos he was making testing his powers online. There's the mysterious and seemingly timeless villain "The Other" that Robin and the others are looking for clues towards and narrow escapes and adventures throughout this volume. I'm eager to read more in this series!

[Evan]

This has its ups and downs. I like this incarnation of the team, in spite of (maybe because of) its particular brand of dysfunctionality. Bunch of traumatized teens learning to work together and having a bitch of a time doing it. I can dig it! Damian is particularly unhinged, which I know is probably controversial, but I’m interested to see where it’s going. Could take or leave Djinn and Roundhouse, but I like Kid Flash and Red Arrow’s writing. And I adore Crush, although this isn’t as great of a showcase for her as the Mariko Tamaki solo book, of course. Good, vibrant color in this too, although the character designs feel a little inconsistent. There are some Jorge Jimenez sketches in the back that make me wish for his take on the art over Bernard Chang’s, but I think Chang’s work is perfectly fine.

Had deze gekocht omdat ik het leuk vond dat we een keer de niet-typische teen titans kregen met wel dezelfde Robin (is het niet btw!! Ben dankzij deze erachter gekomen dat er like 5 ofzo verschillende Robins zijn??)
Deze Robin is zegmaar de echte zoon van Batman, en wilt zijn eigen team samenstellen.

Echt wel een leuke aanrader, want tis echt de eerste comic van een duidelijke reeks, vet goeie artstyles en coloring (im wilde eig de comic van Super Boy en Robin kopen maar die kan je nergens vinden helaas, naar heeft wel zelfde artstyles echt 10/10 chefs kiss voor comic style.

Storytelling was ook echt goed. Leuke momentjes, leuke versch persoonlijkheden vd personages, coole setting, kan echt leuk zijn als dit verfilmd wordt denk ik 👌🏻

Zeker een aanrader voor iemand die begint met comics naar mijn mening

This is my first proper comic read, at least not one that's all slice of life. Ive been trying to put myself out there. I enjoyed it! I even liked Damian and Djinn's little hintings of romance and that surprised me.

I didn't personally like the whole fat comic relief trope, it's very overdone and it really isn't the best rep for the young kids that might be reading this, is there not room for a fat hero that isn't just clowned on by the narrative and joked about how gross they are? I'm sure Roundhouse is given a deeper backstory but I don't think that can subvert the stereotype.

I also didn't like the little editor tidbits? almost cause me to dnf bc of how annoying it was, like idgaf about you Alex go away I am trying to read about my guys. Is this a normal thing? it seemed so weird to me.
