This is not your T-E-E-N T-I-T-A-N-S, Teen Titans. In fact, it isn't even the Teen Titans from pre- New 52. Of the New 52 books, this is one of the most changed. And it's not all for the good.

This iteration of the Titans is lead by Tim Drake, Batman's former sidekick, as Red Robin. Starting with issue 1 we find Red Robin immediately and without explanation fighting against an international organization called Project N.O.W.H.E.R.E. that seems to be seeking out super-powered young people to capture and turn to their side or to kill them.
Red Robin is joined by Wonder Girl, a thief with powers derived from stolen artifacts, Kid Flash, a young Flash with an unclear history, and a couple others as the story goes on (and who I don't want to spoil the story arch) working towards finding other super-powered teens and saving them from N.O.W.H.E.R.E.. And one major obstacle stands in their way: Superboy.
For fans of the Teen Titans going all the way back to the late 1980s, like myself, I find the switch to new characters tough to swallow. I'm especially troubled by where some of the characters went (see Starfire in Red Hood and the Outlaws, for instance). Cyborg as a member of Justice League is a good fit, but the move leaves very little to work with here. But as jarring as the switch is, Lobdel does a serviceable job bring a compelling story even though not historically an actual Teen Titans story.
The artwork is on par with the other New 52 titles, which means frankly that it looks like all the others. In fact, I am hard pressed to see a big difference between most of the artists at DC who all seem to have graduated from the Jim Lee school of art - top heavy, gravity defying women and strong fisted, glaring men on huge full panel or two page spreads - although there are less random lines. It's well done and colored well, but it doesn't stand out.
Teen Titans volume 1 is just another book in DCs 52 that doesn't do much to stand out.
