10 Mind-Blowing Facts You Didn't Know About The Teen Titans Cartoon
4. There's Actually A 'Lost' Episode
One thing that's become increasingly apparent over the course of writing these articles on the superhero cartoons of the nineties and early noughties is that there are a lot (like, A LOT) of 'lost' episodes; episodes that weren't broadcast as a part of a typical season, and were instead told in different forms, like video games, for instance.
Teen Titans has a similar example, but its 'lost' episode isn't from a video game, or even a basic plot outline that never materialised into a full-length episode. No, Teen Titans' lost episode was actually delivered via an online promotion on the site 'Postopia', and wasn't broadcast as a part of the show's usual schedule.
The basic premise of the episode involves a rowdy, punk-like supervillain - fittingly called Punk Rocket - who uses his musical skills (read: weaponised electric guitar) to disrupt serene concerts. The Titans are called in to deal with him, which leads to the usual back-and-forth battle where the team have to regroup and figure out how to take him down.
It was later included as a DVD extra in the Trouble in Tokyo film, but that was two years after the episode first surfaced.
