[Comic Excerpt] New Titans #39 Mostly about Static

So the new issue is out and I have some observations

Images 1-3: So Static was just recruited and we aren't gonna go over the totally bs way Cyborg treated him and had him ready to storm out? Cy out here blaming him for him protecting himself is laughable. I'd have shot those drones down even if my powers weren't on the fritz from them not using them for so long. It's basically confirmed he's recruited but I'd have loved to seen them actually accepting him.

Images 4-5: I was pretty sure they were hinting at a possible love connection between these two before but now I can almost see them setting it up. That being said they had next to no significant interactions in this chapter. He also mentioned he'd been dumped way to many times this chapter be lookin at a new girl like that.

Image 6: I am not sure how this Wonder girl title operates but why is this chick trying to claim the title? Does it come with powers or something? I don't know anything about this Wonder girl except that she's Brazilian, an orphan and apparently American. All of which I learned from this chapter. Idk of she was born with divinity or why she has to force herself to be in America, Stephanie said she had no choice and she was an orphan. How does this play into anything?

All in all as a new comic reader who specifically started reading comics for the sole purpose of supporting Static from childhood nostalgia for the Static Shock days I like this chapter way more than the last issue.

Both Cyborg and Nightwing are both being a little abrasive, I understand Nightwing's for the most part although it's annoying. Also the who "This takes place before the kingdom of Zod and Batman bad Seed events" is getting on my nerves.
