Fictional team biography

[

The Terror Titans make their first strike as

throws an impromptu

party at

, 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.

and Disruptor then infiltrate the

tower and attack

. During the battle, a gas line is ruptured,

destroying a portion of the tower.

Disruptor is then sent to capture

, who is thrown into a ring with Kid Devil, whom Clock King

had been conditioning into a bestial savage, to be sold to "

Clock King attempts to close the deal with "

", 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,

triggers a message in one of Clock King's

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

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

and

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.

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.

Some time later, Clock King takes over the Dark Side Club,

planning to use the brainwashed young metahumans for his

own plans. Ravager, who had accepted Clock King's offer, helps to train the Terror Titans physically, as Clock King

trains them mentally. He has Dreadbolt kill

and take his name,

reunites Persuader with her father, then

kills him,

and has Copperhead care for an injured combatant named TNTeena, earning her trust, then has him kill

her.

All this was Clock King's way of conditioning the Terror Titans into ruthless soldiers. It is eventually

revealed that Clock King has made the brainwashed metahumans into his own

Martyr Militia

, and set them on Los

Angeles, having them destroy the city simply for his own amusement. Ravager, disgusted, turns against the Terror

Titans, and with

, who had been posing as one of the combatants, frees the brainwashed metahumans, who

turn on the Terror Titans. They come to Clock King for help, but instead he kills Disruptor and leaves the rest at the

mercy of the incoming metahumans. Ravager confronts Clock King, and manages to defeat him, although she is unable to

keep him from escaping. The three remaining Terror Titans escape from custody two weeks later, and set out to get

revenge on Clock King.

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":

: Leader of the group.

: Terry Bolatinsky, son of the supervillain

: No relation to the original Copperhead.

: Female, possibly an ancestor to the first Persuader.

In a form of

, she uses

weaponry copied from her descendants, who in turn will pattern his atomic axe and his identity after her.

Disruptor

: Daughter of the original energy-disrupting supervillain, later revealed to be a lie.

At the end of

Teen Titans

(vol. 3) #60

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".

Eventually, during the series she's convinced by Clock King to take part in the

and train the Terror Titans, not by mind control but out of simple persuasion, but still keeps a hidden agenda,

and not everyone in the Terror Titans team trust her fully.
