===''Teen Titans'' (vol. 3) (2003–2011) and ''Outsiders'' (vol. 3) (2003–2007)===

Writer [[Geoff Johns]]' ''Teen Titans'' series began in 2003, after a three issue miniseries entitled ''Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day'', which saw Lilith's death and Donna Troy sent to another world after seemingly dying, along with the disbanding of the 1998–2002 Titans roster and the Young Justice team. The relaunch came on the heels of the debut of the ''[[Teen Titans (TV series)|Teen Titans]]'' cartoon on [[Cartoon Network]] and reflected DC Comics chief executive Dan DiDio's desire to rehabilitate the Titans as one of DC's top franchises. Launched at the same time was a companion series, a revived version of ''The Outsiders'' which featured Nightwing and Arsenal, along with several other Titans members (Captain Marvel Jr. and Starfire).

The series featured several of the main teenage heroes from the Young Justice roster (Robin, Superboy, Wonder Girl, Impulse) and Starfire, Cyborg and Changeling (now rebranded Beast Boy to reflect the cartoon). Raven later returned to the team, reborn in a new teenage body while Jericho was brought back, having escaped death by possessing and laying dormant inside his father Deathstroke's mind.

The series renewed interest in the Titans,<ref>Cowsill, Alan "2000s" in Dolan, p. 310: "None [of the ''Teen Titans'' series] had reached the heights of the Marv Wolfman and George Pérez era until writer Geoff Johns and artist Mike McKone's relaunch."</ref> but drew sharp complaints due to shifts in the personalities of the various Young Justice characters. Most notably, the decision to have Impulse rebrand himself Kid Flash and the decision to Jettison his happy-go-lucky person in favor of a more serious personality. The series, under Geoff Johns, also dramatically retconned Superboy's origin with the revelation that he was a hybrid clone based on the combined DNA of Superman and Lex Luthor (a possibility Johns had first suggested in a fan letter published in the Superboy comic book several years before he was employed by DC).

Under Geoff Johns, the Teen Titans were front and center during the build-up and events of the Infinite Crisis crossover. During the lead-in of the crossover, Donna Troy came back in a four-part crossover miniseries with The Outsiders called "The Return of Donna Troy" while Superboy and Cassie Sandsmark became a couple. During Infinite Crisis, Superboy was killed by his evil doppelganger Superboy Prime, Cyborg was severely damaged by cosmic forces unleashed by Alexander Luthor Jr., Starfire was lost in space with several other heroes, while Kid Flash became lost in the Speed Force, re-emerging in the Flash uniform and having aged to adulthood after a failed attempt to stop Superboy Prime.

{{Main|One Year Later}}
Following the events of ''Infinite Crisis'', the Teen Titans fell into a state of chaos. Wonder Girl quit the group to join a cult she believed could resurrect Superboy, while Robin took a leave of absence to travel the globe with Batman and Nightwing. Changeling and Raven attempted to keep the Titans going, resulting in a massive open call membership drive that saw a large number of heroes come and join the roster, which was anchored by Beast Boy and Raven. New members include Miss Martian, Kid Devil, Zachary Zatara, Ravager, Bombshell (who like Terra I, was a traitor working for Deathstroke), Young Frankenstein, and Osiris.

During this period, Osiris was driven from the team due to a smear campaign launched by Amanda Waller after she manipulated him into killing a super-villain. The smear campaign against Osiris, along with the war between Black Adam and Intergang, led to Black Adam declaring war on the world. In the ensuing series of battles against the super-hero community, the Titans fought and lost a bloody battle with the villain, culminating in the deaths of Terra II and Young Frankenstein. The deaths led to Beast Boy resigning from the team to join the Doom Patrol along with Herald and Bumblebee, while Raven took a leave of absence to purge Jericho of the dark forces that were corrupting him.

Robin and Wonder Girl eventually rejoined the Titans (now located in San Francisco, California) and helped foil Bombshell's plan to frame Miss Martian as Deathstroke's latest mole in the team and allowed Raven to cleanse Jericho of the Azarathian corruption that had turned him evil. Geoff John's final arc on the series would introduce a new villainous "Titans East" team, led by Deathstroke and Batgirl Cassandra Cain.

Soon after, events related to the ''[[Countdown (DC Comics)|Countdown]]'' story arc impacted the Titans. Duela Dent and Bart Allen are killed; Cyborg leaves, and [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]] joins and [[Blue Beetle (Jaime Reyes)|Blue Beetle]] is invited to train, but the two eventually leave, with the members joining the Justice League of America and Justice League International, respectively. The Titans fight the future, evil adult versions of the group ([[Titans Tomorrow]]) and Clock King and the Terror Titans, who are part of Darkseid's underground fight club for metahumans.

After the ''[[Batman R.I.P]]'' storyline, Robin leaves and Wonder Girl leads the team. Red Devil loses his powers after Brother Blood absorbs them. Miss Martian returns with several teen heroes liberated from the Dark Side Club. A new team is formed: Wonder Girl, Blue Beetle and the now-powerless Red Devil are joined by Kid Eternity and Static, with the new Aquagirl, Miss Martian and a reformed [[Bombshell (DC Comics)|Bombshell]] signing up.<ref>{{cite web | url= https://www.cbr.com/cci-mcduffie-reaches-milestone-with-dc/ | title=CCI: McDuffie Reaches Milestone with DC |first= Jeffrey|last= Renaud| website=Comic Book Resources | date=July 27, 2008 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080914122141/http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=17453|archive-date=September 14, 2008 |url-status=live|access-date= December 22, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite comic| writer= McKeever, Sean| penciller= Barrows, Eddy| inker= Jose, Ruy; Ferreira, Julio| story= The New Deal Part 1: Choices| title= Teen Titans| volume= 3| issue= #66| date= February 2009}}</ref>

In the ''[[Blackest Night]]'' crossover, several dead Titans are resurrected as members of the [[Black Lantern Corps]]. In the ''Titans: Blackest Night'' miniseries, an emergency team consisting of Donna Troy, Cyborg, Wonder Girl, Starfire, Beast Boy, Kid Flash and the new [[Hawk (Holly Granger)|Hawk]] and [[Dove (Dawn Granger)|Dove]], is formed to defend the Tower. In the ensuing battle, Hawk is killed after her predecessor Hank Hall tears her heart out. At the end of the ''Blackest Knight'' crossover, Hank Hall is resurrected and resumes his partnership with Dove. In the main series, Ravager and Jericho fight their father Deathstroke and the dead members of the Wilson family, resurrected as Black Lanterns.

During this time, several back-up stories begin to run in the series: one called "The Coven", starring [[Black Alice (comics)|Black Alice]], [[Zachary Zatara]] and [[Traci Thirteen]] and later, one starring Ravager.

Later storylines involve the corruption of Wonder Girl at the hands of various factors (designed to address complaints about the character's abusive attitudes towards her teammates post-''Infinite Crisis''), Kid Devil is killed in battle, while Kid Eternity is revealed to have been beaten to death by the Calculator after being kidnapped by him.

[[J. T. Krul]] became the writer with issue #88 and penciler [[Nicola Scott]] became the book's artist. The issue's teaser shows a line-up of Superboy, Wonder Girl, Raven, Beast Boy, Kid Flash and Ravager. The Titans undergo this roster change in issue #87, the final issue before Krul's run. Following a mission to an alternate dimension to rescue Raven, the team splits. Bombshell and Aquagirl are [[missing in action]], Miss Martian is in a coma and she and a powerless Static leave with Cyborg to go to [[Cadmus Labs]] to find a way to restore his powers.

[[Damian Wayne]], the current Robin, is announced as a new team member,<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.dccomics.com/blog/2010/07/14/nicola-scott-joins-jt-krul-on-teen-titans |title= Nicola Scott joins J.T.

The book concluded with a three-part storyline spanning issues #98–100, which saw Superboy-Prime return to destroy the team. A large group of former Titans arrived and the series ultimately ended with Prime trapped in the [[Source Wall]], seemingly for all eternity. The remainder of the issue consisted of pieces of artwork showcasing the various Teen Titans who appeared in that incarnation of the title, contributed by various DC artists.
