Characters
The team are taking up the mantle of other older supervillains, as McKeever explains: "what I've done with the Terror Titans is create a team of bad teenagers using the idea of legacy characters"
- Clock King: Leader of the group.
- Dreadbolt: Terry Bolatinsky. Son of the supervillain Bolt.
- Copperhead: No relation to the original Copperhead.
- Persuader: Female, possibly an ancestor to the first Persuader. In a form of predestination paradox, she uses weaponry copied from her descendants, who in turn will pattern his atomic axe and his identity after her
- Disruptor: Daughter of the original energy-disrupting supervillain. Later revealed to be a lie.
At the end of Teen Titans #60 Ravager left the Teen Titans and will have a role in the limited series although, according to McKeever, not necessarily as part of the team: "She won't necessarily be on the Terror Titans team, but she's front and center in the Terror Titans mini-series. It really is like she's sharing the mini-series with the Terror Titans.". Eventually, during the series she's convinced by Clock King to take part in the Dark Side Club and train the Terror Titans, not by mind control but out of simple persuasion, but still keeps a hidden agenda, and not everyone in the Terror Titans team trust her fully

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“Waxed-fleshed out-patients
Still vague from accidents,
And characters in long coats
Deep in the litter-baskets
All dodging the toad work
By being stupid or weak.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“It is open to question whether the highly individualized characters we find in Shakespeare are perhaps not detrimental to the dramatic effect. The human being disappears to the same degree as the individual emerges.”
—Franz Grillparzer (17911872)
“We are like travellers using the cinders of a volcano to roast their eggs. Whilst we see that it always stands ready to clothe what we would say, we cannot avoid the question whether the characters are not significant of themselves.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
