American Update: New Teen Titans 1st app in DC Comics Presents #26
*DC: One of the biggest hits of the 1980s was the New Teen Titans, in which Marv Wolfman and George Perez took a moribund Sixties franchise and revitalised it into DC’s sales powerhouse of the decade. Introducing three brand-new characters – Cyborg, Raven and Starfire – Wolfman & Perez hewed very closely to the X-Men model of angst-ridden young heroes, and scored big points not only with DC’s readers; NTT became the DC Comic even Marvel fans bought! But the team made their first appearance, not in their own series, but in a ‘Bonus Book’, a supplement included with another title, DC Comics Presents #26. Here, for the first time, we met the new team, as they were gathered together to face a fearful menace – and the Jim Starlin-drawn Superman GL team-up’s pretty nifty too! Soon the stars of a live-action TV show, the New Teen Titans’ popularity is soaring, so we’re pleased to offering an affordable copy of their debut issue. DC Comics Presents #26 is VG+ p at £35. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
