Remember the New Teen Titans
Part One: Meeting the Titans
By Jennifer M. Contino March 21, 2016
I discovered The New Teen Titans
quite by accident, and it was one of the best accidents of my life. Let
me explain: the naive comic book reader, all of nine years old, thought
any comic book that had Batman on the cover had to have Robin somewhere in the story, and vice versa. Batman and
Robin were my favorites at that point in time, so I bought just about
every comic book with Batman that I could find. So, I was at the
newsstand -- yes, at that point in time (circa 1982) the newsstand was
my comic book store. Even better, I was at a newsstand with an extra
dollar to my name. It was Lent....

The Teen Wonder was on the cover of New Teen Titans # 19.
Mistakenly, I believed Raven (who I didn't know at the time) to be
Batman, covered by his cape. So, I thought, "A Batman and Robin story I
don't have. I'll get this." Again, I was young and just thought someone
didn't color Batman's leg. Also the story promised an appearance by
Hawkman, and I liked him in SuperFriends. I didn't really know
anyone else on the cover, save for Wonder Girl. I had an awesome yellow
sleeping bag that had Wonder Woman, Wonder Girl, Supergirl, Catwoman and
Batgirl on it, so I recognized Wonder Girl, even if she did look
different from the Wonder Girl I knew from Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman
television series. I went home, got my slices of pizza, then sat in my
favorite comic book reading spot, and opened to page one of this story.

A Few Personal “Best Comic Book Stories of All Time” - Part I
Over at the Silver Bullet Comic Books
Forums there’s been a thread running devoted to discussion of “The Best
Comic Book Story of All Time.” I’m doing something along that line here,
but much more personal. Over the next few Comic Effect columns I’m
going to discuss some of my favorite comic books published over the
years. Be forewarned: at times, the “best” here is going to be purely
subjective!

NEW TEEN TITANS #19 (May 1982)
The New Teen Titans #19
May, 1982. DC Comics.
“The Light Fantastic.”
Writer: Marv Wolfman: Artists: George Perez and Romeo Tanghal. Editor: Len Wein.
For a while in the early 1980s, the new Teen Titans
ruled the comicsverse. And for good reason. Marv Wolfman and George
Perez created some terrific characters and some breathtaking storylines.
This issue is a break from all that. It’s lighthearted, and not only
because Dr. Light is the villain. It has a classic comic book plot and
structure, but seems fresh and new, probably because the Titans were
such an intriguing bunch of characters. And Perez draws a mean Hawkman.
This isn’t necessarily representative of the series, because, as with
Sandman and so many other titles, I could easily do a Top 25 New Teen
Titans list. But this story has it all: action, adventure, humor,
characterization, mythological overtones, and lots of teamwork. At one
time, the Titans really came together as a team. This longtime favorite
story reminds me just how good they were.
