ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY:Titansis still in production, right?
This season, we allowed ourselves really to be a comic book show in the finale.
Its more of a celebration of whatTitanscan be.

I hope/feel it is earned.
Season 1 was very much about theTitansfinding each other.
Is the trailer representative of the season as a whole?Yes and no.

But theres as much in-fighting within the family as there is fighting outside criminals.
Our focus is always on relationships first and character.
We have his wife.
That family approach also applies to how we tell the Deathstroke story and the sins of his past.
We do a Deathstroke origin story in this as well; we get to see how Deathstroke became Deathstroke.
Season 1 endedwith a Connor breaking free from Cadmus.
He has actual genetic reasons to struggle with it that we reveal.
Also, the actor Joshua Orpin hes a real discovery is phenomenal.
He just stepped right into the role.
What is Superboys dynamic with the rest of the Titans?Fraught.
He doesnt want to fit in, so thats the first thing.
He has no natural allegiance.
He doesnt know who Superman is.
It doesnt make sense to him, this allegiance of crime-fighting/family.
Being a Titan is about twenty on his list of things hes trying to figure out right now.
Dicks identity crisis drove the majority of season 1.
Once we get passed him being corrupted by Trigon, what is Dicks facing this season?
How is Dick handling the teams expansion?I think its the adage, Leaders are not born.
Im butchering it, but thats roughly it.
I think thats what his journey is this year.
So, thats his struggle.
The trailer also had a few more light-hearted comedic moments.
Can we expect the season to have more those in general?In spots [laughs].
Definitely thats where we should be angling more.
But yeah, we have them.
Just reading the finale, theres a ton of them in the finale and theyre sprinkled throughout.
We have some funny writers, so hopefully that comes up on the page.
If it doesnt, Im 100 percent to blame.
We were a road show in season 1 and in season 2, we jump right into Titans Tower.
That was a big part of [Wolfman and George Perezs] books.
The show moves to San Francisco.
You get to see what pulled them together [and] what drove them apart.
Im excited in the Bruce-Dick relationship.
Bruce Wayne is really good at being Batman.
Hes not very good at being Bruce Wayne.
And I love the action and the super-suits.
Titanspremieres Friday on DC Universe, with new episodes released weekly.
