Donna Troy and Terry Long: A Love Story


In this post I will be showing the classic romance of Donna Troy and Terry Long, by Marv Wolfman and George Perez.

We first meet Terry in The New Teen Titans #8.




Later...




Then in #9...


This scene from #12 takes place after the "Titans of Myth" storyline, where Hyperion entranced Donna and made her fall in love with him.


#13 has Donna taking her anger out on some criminals.




#20 is narrated by Wally West, who's writing a letter to his parents.






In #28...








#29...


#30...




#31...




#34...




#38 is the "Who is Donna Troy?" issue.







Dick helps Donna find out the truth about her past; her mother Dorothy Hinckley gave her up for adoption because she had terminal cancer and was dying. She was adopted by Carl and Fay Stacey. When Carl died in a job-related accident, Fay had little money left and was forced to give Donna up for re-adoption, where she was put into a child-selling operation. The bodies in the fire Donna remembered were of the people who were planning on selling her. Donna is reunited with Elmira Cassiday, the woman who ran the orphanage Dorothy went to, and Fay, who had gotten remarried.

Tales of the Teen Titans #42 takes place during the "Judas Contract" storyline.




In #45, Terry has his bachelor party.










#48...




#49...














In the double-sized #50, Donna and Terry finally get married.




























Later, Diana tells Donna and Terry that they need to come with her.

Maybe he makes bad and mildly inappropriate jokes about things being kinky in the classroom, too, and that makes the girls think he's open to a little sexual grade persuasion...?

But that was why I liked that wedding scene with Hippolyta, that she listed those 'greater guy than usual great guy' aspects of him.

Which unfortunately, he seems to be a little too touched by. Note to Terry: when your newlywed wife shows up in her culture's version of sexy lingerie, do not say "you remind me of your mother."

Oh man teachers should never make jokes about kink. It causes me to shudder heavily.

And okay, yes, THAT was creepy. Understandable that a History guy would be wowed by meeting a historical badass, but, dude seriously.
