One of the main purposes of my creating Titan was to be able to have a superhero character that could easily slip into anyplace on the time stream of traditional superhero comics as though he fit right and was there all along. In other words my hero had to feel timeless and completely conform into the parameters of what these heroes are. I had to fit all the cliches and trademarks to fit into the overall mythos.
my hero had to have a costume with mask and symbol, check.
He had to have a secret identity, check.
He had to live in a fictional or real city, fiction check.
He had to have an arch enemy, check.
He would need a rogues gallery, check
He had to have a mentor to teach him the ropes, a little unconventional sure but check.
He had to have a sidekick, to come.
And there's so many more that will be touched upon through out the series. I want to also be able to expand upon those characteristics as well. For example,Titan does have a girlfriend right from the beginning where as many heroes pine for their lady love over time. I wanted Michael to already have that relationship built and simply try to maintain it through these improbable circumstances. Plus, when it comes to sidekciks, Titan will get to be one and then later he will get one.
