While I've commented several times, this is my first official post in the new journal. I apologize if the tags aren't correct. I tried.

I've always loved this piece from the 3rd issue of the Beast Boy mini-series. To me, it defines what DC was trying to do with Beast Boy at the time... show that he's not the little kid of the team anymore who doesn't need "big brother Nightwing" to bail him out.









Unfortunately, somewhere along the line, TPTB decided to regress Gar to his 80's personality and have totally screwed him over for the last 2 years or so.

BTW, more of my Beast Boy scans (and the original artwork, which I acquired from the inker Chris Ivy) are at www.garfieldlogan.com

IIRC, he's done it once or twice when he's really irritated with Gar.

And I suspect the reason they changed Gar's name to Beast Boy was because while Gar was in comic limbo, a game company began producing an RPG called "Changeling: The Dreaming". I think TPTB may have decided it was easier to go back to the old name than to get into a law suit over "Changeling".

So does that mean Gar Logan was using the "Beast Boy" name in The Technis Imperative? I just reread it, but I don't remember.

IIRC, he was called Beast Boy once, but for the most part everyone called him Gar. I'll have to find my graphic novel to double check.
