Not:

Starfire
Doctor Light
Harbinger
Azrael (winged whiny Azrael)

I picked up all these issues out of sequence years later, so Kole's chronology is always a little disjointed for me. Nightwing, Jericho and Kory were off in space for her wedding thingy... and by the time they came back there was a Nightwing/ Wondy confrontation.

Was it Gorgon of the Hybrid?

You are thinking of the correct era. No, it wasn't Gorgon.

and now I remember that if Jericho had allowed Kole to come along, she might not have died... *sob*

We had seen him contacted by a number of ladies. Now they all seemed to be chasing him. We know that Kole had developed an attachment to him. So he takes the first opportunity to leave the planet.

I think Marv was trying to show us that Joe was a caring part of a number of people's lives. But it could just as easily be read that he's a manipulative git.

Was it Mento?

Yes, it was Mento!

I think Jericho's portrayal there was realistic. "Kole, I know you really want me, but I don't think it's appropriate, so maybe you should stay behind..."

I remember earlier scenes with Kole and Joe as being quite grown up for the time.

Of course Joe is really going so that he can have space babes zeta beam messages to his bachelor pad. Joe uses bachelor padding to build up those shoulders in his Wildebeest costume.

I don't remember the Mento v Kole scene, but I couldn't remember the names of the Hybrid with lasty powers

It was in the issue where Mento started going nuts. Kole tries to trap him, and he shatters her wall right back at her. She just manages to shield herself in time.

ugh, as if super horndog Roy weren't enough. diversity in personality please!

If you add in Mr Long to Joe and Roy... well...

Now I realize... Terry was a future version of Roy and Joe merged together! Red hair + curly hair +over the top creepiness...

All facets of Marv who, if memory serves, was going through some personal issues around that time. Revealing....

Escapism in action.

Disturbing that all those women seem to do nothing else than revolve around their lives. Obviously Marv had plenty of other strong male characters to balance it out. Nightwing wouldn't turn into a man slut until later on for example

The Titans are up against the Royal Flush Gang. But who's leading the Gang?

The Gambler II.

Love that story!

That's the one. I don't remember reading it before but it wasn't that bad. The Titans weren't quite as effective as they should have been when the plot needed it. Danny Chase got a decent run out too. Iwondeted if the reveal that it was the Gambler and not the Joker was more to appease the Bat editors , as it was done very early on.

I'm not sure. I don't think I realized until much later that there was even meant to be a misdirect with the Joker.

I barely paid attention to the Gambler/Joker though since pretty much all of my attention was on the Royal Flush Gang (who are probably my favorite DC villain team).

I think Speedy was in this story too, wasn't he? I know he popped back up around this time. If so, I was probably fixated on him too. Roy Harper as Speedy was my favorite DC character for most of my childhood. I lost so much interest in him when he became the mega-boring Arsenal.

Speaking of Arsenal, a symbol of which weapon was featured on his original costume?

Yes, Speedy was definitely in the mix

Was it a boomerang sort of shape?

The Royal Flush Gang story had the Thinker taking out Jack's eye in a mad Joker sort of way, but seemed determined on the second cover and elsewhere not to invite the additional sales from taking it further. I note this was just before Titans Hunt. Considering how difficult Wolfman was finding things, it wasn't hugely different from a number of earlier tales.

The Titans were white robed Raven, Troia Donna, Kory, Joey, Vic and Roy. Danny Chase got a lot of panel time which is hopefully why there wasn't a lot of characterisation on any of the others.

Tops cobber! You had a fair crack of the sauce bottle and came out fair dinkum! Your shout for questions.

I actually loved this whole period of Titans stories. After being in a slump for such a long time, I think Wolfman got some of his mojo back around the time the awesome Grummett/Vey took over art duties. I loved this story, that werewolf or whatever creature they were two parter, the Lonely Place of Dying crossover issues, the Deathstroke and Robin spotlight issues and of course the first half of Titans Hunt. I'm probably forgetting some too.

Beauty! New Q Shortly!




I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I remember it as being a slump. But that's just going on the back issues collected much later. Titans Hunt seemed to take that start from the Judas Contract and I picked up the start of it. The new editor certainly got some energy back into the books, but perhaps not the depth or buy in which was a shame. I compared it a bit to the X-Men going into the siege perilous leaving behind support characters and allies to find them/ carry the torch.

Who was on the Titans team that went to Russia to find out what had happened to Cyborg in the Titans Hunt arc? There are six to get.

Pantha
Nightwing
Phantasm
Changeling
Speedy
Golden Eagle

Three correct

Pantha
Nightwing
