Captain Carrot Returns!
December 5th, 2005 by Kelson. Posted in Comics and tagged for captain carrot, Comics, TeenTitansTeen Titans #30-31 will feature the long-awaited* return of Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew! It seems that Kid Flash is a fan of the series, which never actually got canceled in the DC Universe, and has gone grim-n-gritty with the rest of the DC line. “Excerpts” of a Zoo Crew “parody of Watchmen and Dark Knight and their fallout” will be interspersed with the regular story.
While grim-and-gritty doesn’t seem to go with Captain Carrot, parody does. And to think, I was this close to dropping Teen Titans. It looks like I’ll be staying on a few more issues.

*OK, long-awaited by some. Let’s just say it was Captain Carrot that got me into comics at the age of seven, so there’s a serious nostalgia factor at work.

Never so much into CCaHAZC, but I’ve been enjoying the TT.
Actually, I’ve been amused by the occasional cameos (usually related to cross-dimensional goings-on and images) of Rocket Raccoon …
