Tiny Titans is acomic bookseries byArt Baltazar andFranco Aureliani.^[1] It was published byDC Comics, beginning publication in February2008. The first issue was also released as part of the annualFree Comic Book Day promotion in May 2008. The series concluded its run with the 50th issue, released in March 2012 (cover dated in May). During its history,Tiny Titans won the Eisner Award for Best Series for Kids twice, in 2009 and 2011. In 2014–15, the series was revived asTiny Titans: Return to the Tree House, a six-issue miniseries. In 2010, a 3-issuecrossover withArchie Comics,Tiny Titans/Little Archie, was published with theTiny Titans creative team.

Tiny Titans stars alternate versions ofDC Universe characters, primarily those from theTeen Titans series. It is set in a kid-friendly,elementary school environment. Issues typically consist of several individual stories as opposed to one cohesive storyline.

Although the comical nature of the stories feature a wide variety of characters, several are part of recurring jokes:

• Robin is one of the more featured characters and is generally considered the leader, though no one seems to take him seriously. In one attempt to prove his character, Robin briefly changes his name and costume toNightwing, but still fails to garner any respect.
• Beast Boy andTerra appear as part of a very one-sided relationship, in which Terra responds to Beast Boy's silly romantic advances by throwing rocks at him.
• Deathstroke (Slade) is theprincipal of the kids' school, Sidekick City Elementary. The kids tend to think of Principal Slade as a mean guy, and they are usually right.
• Psimon is often calledBrainiac because of his exposed brain, and he always has to remind Wonder Girl what his name is, but she does not listen.

The team's catchphrase is "Aw yeah, Titans!", which everyone eventually says, exceptMiss Martian andKid Devil, who are infants. The catchphrase has been referenced by many other mainstream comic books.

• InTiny Titans #12, theMonitor is ahall monitor, who is constantly thwarted by theAnti-Monitor.
• In the same issue,Principal Slade leavesLunch Lady Darkseid in charge of the school. Darkseid declares that the Tiny Titans will have to do their finals that day, and that it is theFinals Crisis.
• InTiny Titans #13, page 16 shows a "signed portrait" ofDan DiDio, as well asBilly Batson and the Magic of Shazam! #1,Final Crisis #1,The New Teen Titans #1, andSuperman #199.
• Issue #17 sees Robin having to claimBatman's cowl, which has been claimed by a cow.
• Issue #25 not only has the return ofConner Kent (Superboy), but the Tiny Titans also get a hold of different colored rings representing the emotional spectrum ring from theGreen Lantern comics. Members of theGreen Lantern Corps show up to retrieve the rings from the children.

• Due toTed Kord being dead,Blue Beetle's guardians are shown to beThe Beatles, who quote the titles of their songs.
• In issue #3, Robin and his friends discover penguins with helmets and rockets in theBatcave. It is revealed that they are from "that penguin movie", and the Tiny Titans later suggest they should watch the film to learn how Batman dealt with them.
• In issue #17, Robin again makes a movie reference when he complains about a rubber costume he got for his birthday, saying it feels like he isin a movie.
• In issue #18, when Robin ends up in detention, his continuous talking results in him receivingmore detention.Talon then states thatone more day would turn his brain to mush.
• The Tiny Titans often have Pet Club meetings with their various pets (e.g.,Ace the Bat-Hound orKrypto the Superdog). The first rule of Pet Club is "We don't talk about Pet Club", a reference to the novelFight Club and itsfilm version.
• In issue #13, Wayne Manor is depicted strongly resembling its counterpart from the1960sBatman television series, just in brighter colors. At the end of the issue, Robin also quips "same bat-time, same bat-channel", a phrase often used at the end of an episode.

The Tiny Titans versions of Robin, Cyborg, Starfire, Beast Boy, and Raven appear inTeen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans. They are summoned alongside other versions of the Teen Titans to take on Hexagon. In the graphic novelTeen Titans Go! To the Library! by Baltazar and Aureliani, theTTG Titans enter the Tiny Titans universe.
