The 'Legendsverse'
(Teen Titans Legends)
A sprawling set of TT
fics that take the situations and set-up from the TV series and inject some of
the dark adult tone from the modern comics. Starts out mediocre-to-good,
swiftly becomes EPIC. Early fics revolve around OC’s, the latter ones where
they’re believably ingrained in the team and the series follows them as a whole
are the best. Some truly gut-wrenching pain and elation inducing joy in
different areas. One of my absolute favourite FF series and one I highly
encourage people to give a chance. (Special mention goes to the ‘Boogeyman’ series
of side-stories, chaos magic on Halloween causes the Titans to end up fighting
a legion of horror movies come to life in a decimated tower, atmospheric as
hell, some genuine chills and the odd burst of comedy.)
To Quote the
homepage, “This is Titan Legends, a
website for a specific set of Teen Titans fanfics which revolve around a
"fanon universe" (which means they all take into account events that occurred
in corresponding fanfics on this site, which may be different from the comics
or the animated show). If you're sceptical
about fanfiction, I ask that you reserve your judgement. These fanfics are
hardly as kiddy as the animated show. The authors are all well versed in the
comic versions of the Teen Titans and various other heroes, so some of the good
stuff is there, plus a lot of new stuff. Even if you don't usually like fanfics
with OC's, these stories are worth reading.”
To quote the
TVtropes page, "Some fanfics are good. Some fanfics are bad. And some
fanfics are written so well they are fanfic in name (and copyright law) only.
Titan Legends falls into that category. It started out as a simple revenge joke
by one fanfic writer on her older brother, written by stealing his original
character for a Teen Titans fanfic, and wound up creating three 'canon' spinoff
fics with their own original characters, multiple other fics within the canon
universe, and its
own fanfiction. As
for the plot... It basically takes every stupid, Sueish 'omg my character joins
the titans!' fanfic and does it right. The characters can drift into
Sueishness, but are easily redeemed by good writing and some truly fascinating
plot twists. Your Mileage May Vary, but for most this is a truly enjoyable
series. And slightly addictive... "
