Fictional team biography

The Terror Titans make their first strike as Kid Devil throws an impromptu party at Titans Tower. Dreadbolt, in his civilian identity, plants several surveillance/teleportation/jamming devices around the tower, and later lures Kid Devil into an ambush. Kid Devil is defeated and captured by the Terror Titans. ["Teen Titans" #56] Copperhead, Persuader and Disruptor then infiltrate the tower and attack Ravager. During the battle, a gas line is ruptured, destroying a portion of the tower. ["Teen Titans" #57] Disruptor is then sent to capture Miss Martian, who is thrown into a ring with Kid Devil, whom Clock King had been conditioning into a bestial savage, to be sold to "The Dark Side Club". ["Teen Titans" #58] Clock King attempts to close the deal with "Boss Dark Side", but is refused on the grounds that he promised all the Titans. The Terror Titans return to base, and Ravager, who survived the explosion, follows them. Back at the Tower, Robin triggers a message in one of Clock King devices. The message tells him to bring all the remaining Titans to an abandoned church. Meanwhile, Eddie and M'gann have been imprisoned within a cell. M'gann discover that Fever has also been captured, and Eddie is brought to the ring to fight Hardrock. When the rest of the Titans arrive at the church, Dreadbolt and Disruptor teleport Wonder Girl and Blue Beetle into the clutches of their teammates. Robin takes on Clock King, only to discover that his foe has the precognitive ability to see 4.6692 seconds into the future. Able to predict the Boy Wonder's every move, Clock King soundly defeats Robin, and prepares to stab him with a knife. ["Teen Titans" #59] Within the dark Side Club's arena, Eddie, with help from Megan's telepathy, manages to regain his rational mind, and the two escape. As Wonder Girl is being badly beaten by Disruptor and Persuader, Rose saves her, and Blue Beetle, having defeated Dreadbolt and Copperhead, joins them in helping Robin. Ravager attacks Clock King, only to find that her precognitive abilities are in perfect synch with his. Clock King offers her a chance to join him, but she turns him down. as the Titans prepare to attack as one Clock King removes them from his base, and begins planning anew. ["Teen Titans" #59]

Characters

The team are taking up the mantle of other older supervillains, as McKeever explains: "what I've done with the Terror Titans is create a team of bad teenagers using the idea of legacy characters" [ [http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=144154 Sean McKeever on The Terror Titans] , Newsarama, January 23, 2008]

* Clock King: Leader of the group.
* Dreadbolt: Terry Bolatinsky. Son of the supervillain Bolt.
* Copperhead: Unknown relation to the original Copperhead.
* Persuader: Female, possibly an ascendant to the first Persuader. ["Terror Titans" #1]
* Disruptor: Daughter of the original energy-disrupting supervillain. ["Terror Titans" #1]

At the end of "Teen Titans" #60 Ravager left the Teen Titans and will have a role in the limited series although, according to McKeever not necessarily as part of the team: "She won't necessarily be on the Terror Titans team, but she's front and center in the Terror Titans mini-series. It really is like she's sharing the mini-series with the Terror Titans."
