I was initially hesitant to see that they were adapting the Titan story, as it doesn't really go anywhere in the comics. But even something as simple as changing Titan's motivations, and placing it at a different point in the story makes it far more engaging, and will hopefully be continued in a satisfying manner.

I always thought characters like Titan and Black Samson were underutilized. I don’t agree with all the changes so far, but I definitely like where they went with this.

Agreed. He's not very well developed in the comics. They have given him a much bigger purpose on the show by being the older experienced "coach" of the younger heroes. I like him a lot more now.
