THE TEEN TITANS WEST Part Five When East Meets West

Meanwhile, as the New West Coast Team of Titans battled to save lives from the Disasters caused by Mr Esper, the Original Teen Titans over on the East side of the country are investigating a New Super Villain calling himself Captain Calamity..... Who too seemed to be responsible for a series of disasters effecting that side of the country.

THE ORIGINAL EAST COAST TEEN TITANS

During both teams investigations they are brought together, and at first both teams were suspicious of each others motive and actions. This causes tension and fights started to break out between both teams.

THE NEW WEST COST TEEN TITANS

Finally, Wonder Girls managed to calm everyone with the use of her magic lasso, allowing both sets of super heroes to split into smaller teams to battle Mr Esper and Captain Calamity, who they suspeced t were somehow related.

Lilith finally unearths the fact that both Villains are in fact one person.

Both teams working together finally apprehended the Villain Mr Esper, the former foe of the Bat-Man.

Originally both Teams would have continued as Teen Titans based on different sides of the country, with some of the East Coast Heroes moving West whilst some of the West Coast Heroes moved East, BUT as DC comics had decided to cancel the comic in 1977 both Teams were left to continue as they were.

Combining both teams Presenting THE TEEN TITANS

It would later be told that the West Coast Titans disbanded after a few weeks, as most of them had other interests they wanted to pursue. Lilith and Gnarrk wanted to continue their romantic life together, Golden Eagle found he really was not the hero kind, well not 24-7 anyway, Hawk and Dove had commitments, Bat-Girl missed the fame and life style her Tennis gave her, and even Beast Boy yearned to be a TV Star again.

On the East Coast, Aqua Boy was the first to resign from the group, as he was finding being at Titan too difficult, and this was causing Health issues, Guardian & Bumble Bee knew that the Super Hero life complicated their relationship, and also did not allow Bumble Bee much time as a scientist, her first love. Harlequin would disappear in the pursuit of happiness and answers about her origin and true back ground.

This left the core members of Robin, Wonder Girl, Speedy & Kid Flash. These Teen Titans were no longer Teen agers any more, and all of them wanted to do the things that young adults do, like go to college and start to build a life outside the Super Hero Business. They knew everything about the hero business, and very little about normal life. Each knew that they all needed other experiences to help them grow as people. Their only family were their mentors and the other Titans, and this was not enough for them all.

ROBIN - Dick Grayson went to college, WONDER GIRL - Donna Troy began to build a career for herself as a Photographic Journalist, KID FLASH - Wally West also went into higher education and SPEEDY - Roy Harper would start to play apart in his in the Business Empire run by his Father Oliver Queen.

The Original Teen Titans had disbursed for the last time. The Original 5 would always remain great friends, and at times some of them would band together to fight evil, but on the whole they were no longer the teen aged side kicks of other heroes, they were heroes in their own right. They had all grown up.

When a New Team of Teen Titans would arise, these would be something very new, BUT that is another story for another Time.

This is the End of my Tales of The Original Teen Titans, Next Time I will introduce a Titan that was over looked, and tell of what happened to some of the Teen Titans after all thing changed after the 1st Crisis happened.

THE TEEN TITANS WEST Part Four The Return of BAT - GIRL

Many years before Barbara Gordon put on her Bat Girl costume, another young lady had already owned that title. She was Bette Kane...... The Original BAT - GIRL

Bette Kane was the young niece of heiress Katherine Kane who resided in Gotham City. Bette's visit to see her beloved Aunt was not her only reason to travel to Gotham City, she hoped that while she was on her visit she would see the object of her desire, Robin the Boy Wonder.

When Bette discovered her Aunt Kathy was in fact, BAT-WOMAN, Bette promptly designed herself a costume based on the Red & Green of Robins uniform, and thus became The Bat-Girl was born.

Both her Aunt Kathy and Bat-Man, who knew Bat-Woman.'s secret identity, tried to talk Bette from pursuing this dangerous activity as a masked crime fighter. But this was not to be. Bette was far to driven, and she was going to be Bat - Girl with or with out anyones consent.

THE BAT-MAN FAMILY OF THE EARLY 1960'S

Bette's career as The Bat-Girl was brief, manly as she could only play crime fighter during her brief holidays with her Aunt.

BUT these brief visits allowed Bette to get near to Robin, and whilst Robin gave no encouragement to Bat-Girl, this would not stop Bette from trying her best to get her BOY WONDER.

Holly Cupid Bat-Man !

As the years went on, Bat-Woman would decide to retire as Bat-Woman, and Bette had to accept that her love for Robin was never going to be returned.

Bette would sometimes carry on playing at being Bat-Girl, but she would no longer operate in Gotham City. She would operate out of her home in California. But so she found other challenges, and decided to embrace sport. She became an expert Gymnast and an Olympic Hopeful, however she was always looking for the next big challenge, so she also embraced other sports like Swimming and Tennis.

With Tennis she found something that she was very good at, and something that gave her the fame, she had always craved. Bat-Girl had made her Famous in Gotham City, BUT Tennis could and would grant her BETTY KANE, the fame, admiration and fans...... and money too.

The attention and love that Bette received from her loving public would in some ways help fill the void missing in her life. However, this did mask the fact that due to her overbearing and aggressive nature that she needed to win and be the best, had left her with very few true friends.

When she found herself in the middle of one of the disasters in California, she took up the roll of Bat-Girl again, and was soon recruited by Lilith for her own group of Teen Titans.

AN OLDER but NOT Necessarily WISER BAT-GIRL

Next time when East meets West.

ENJOY !

TEEN TITANS WEST part three THE GOLDEN EAGLE

The Teen Hero who was know by the name THE GOLDEN EAGLE, was really an orphan from Midway City called Charles (Charlie) Parker.

Growing up Charlie idolised Hawkman, and used to dress up in a home made version of his hero's costume, complete with cardboard wings. He had written to his Hero on more than one occasion, where he described the Costume he had made. However, Charlie never received a reply, as unknown to the general public, Hawkman had been ordered back to his home planet around this time.

One day when Charlie was "playing" at being Hawkman he was enveloped in a strange light that transformed his own cardboard winged costume into a real replica of that worn by Hawkman. Along with the costume, Charlie gained the ability to fly, as the wings were a true replica to the Thanagarian Hero. BUT unlike the Original Hawkman, Charlie's costume would disappear and reappear at his will. Just like Magic..... which was a clue to where the costume had originated, BUT Charlie did not suspect.

Charlie decided as Hawkman was no longer around he would fill in for him. Over the following months he would help the local police solve crimes and capture villains. He kept is appearance secret, only leaving a Golden Feather at the scene of his heroic deeds. ( Something the The Original Hawkman had done in the early years of his own career. Thus Charlie was dubbed The Golden Eagle by the Press and local law enforcement.

Charlie soon came into contact with the Justice League of America, who were very surprised to find that the "New" Hawkman was a Teenager.

The mystery of why and how Charlie got his powers was soon discovered. It was due to the villain Matter Master, who wanted to battle the Original Hawkman. However, as Hawkman was no longer on Earth, the Matter Masters Magic Wand help create a New Hawkman for his master to battle.

When the Matter Master then attacked the Justice League, Charlie help defeat the villain, but the cost was he lost his costume and his Hawkman abilities. The Golden Eagle was no more.

When the Real Hawkman returned from space, he heard about Charlies heroic deeds, and decided as a Thanks You for helping keep Midway City safe whilst he was away, and for helping save the Justice League..... Hawkman gave Charlie a Real Hawkman Costume along with Wings and anti gravity belt.

Charlie would slightly refashion the costume, and adjusted the colour of the wings from Brown to Gold, so that he could continue his crime fighting as the Golden Eagle, so not to be mistaken for HIS Hero and Mentor Hawkman.

Charlie never seemed to be really cut out to be a Hero it would turn out, and his lack luster approach to life would mean he was considered by some to be a slacker. But when he got the call from Lilith to help in the disasters on the West Coast, he pulled on his wings and took to the air as The Golden Eagle once more.

The final member of the New Teen Titans West, was an old forgotten Hero, with Close ties to the Boy Wonder.
