Influences

There were many direct influences for Titan and all characters in his world. Some of the influences for Michael were: Peter Parker, Billy Batson, Tim Drake, Bobby Drake, and Matt Murdock. Some of the influences for Titan were: Zorro, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Donatello, Robin, Batman, Shazam, Hercules (old cartoon version), Green Lantern, and the Flash. The influences for Mr. Midnight were: Dr. Doom, Kingpin, Lex Luthor, The Blank (Dick Tracy movie), and Kevin spacey in Usual Suspects. There were of course too many characters, moments and comic lines that helped fertilize the world of Titan in my imagination. Anyone who sticks around and watches over the course of the11 volumes that comprise Titan will that world grow by leaps and bounds through each individual volume.
