And.. for balance... Poison Ivy and Titans covers
A striking pair of covers featuring.. well, not Nightwing
(Note, edited to change the Poison Ivy cover, the artist of which seems extremely problematic. My thanks to stubbleupdate for the infromation)
( Showcasing a couple of very striking looks )

Sometimes superhero comics have the heroes argue over fighting alien invasion vs. fighting more "day to day" villainy.
I'm not sure how often Mark Richards is called Ink. It is usually either "the Tattooed Man" or "Tattoo."
Trigger warning for some sexist words getting thrown at Vixen.

laughing_tree2017-06-07 10:04 amTeen Titans Special: "The Lazarus Contract, Finale"
My pitch for this (I’ve been pushing for it for nearly a year) was to revisit “The Judas Contract,” Marv Wolfman and George Perez’s defining story arc of the New Teen Titans. We were going to J.J. Abrams the thing in order to build a firewall around the original story–so it can never be retconned or ignored–while re-telling it with the post-Rebirth continuity.
But the old continuity was just a mess. Cyborg was never a Titan. Starfire, Raven– it was terribly difficult to sort all of that out. My preference was to not bother; just show blocks of the original story with the original cast without explaining why Cyborg is now a founding member of the Justice League and never a Titan.
As I see it, both DC and Marvel (but especially DC) wastes way too much time on process stories. I’m tired of reading process stories– stories that explain why this character is now wearing a red hat instead of a yellow one. Who cares. Entertain me.
Comics fans aren’t idiots and, sadly, they aren’t kids anymore. Rather than go through the whole Rebirth thing, and what seems to be endless process stories being written ever since, I’d simply have had Batman turn to camera, breaking the fourth wall, and be honest with the DC comics fan: “We fucked up.” Now, on with our show.
Comics should be Good Stories Well Told. That’s it. Personally, am not entertained by all of these comics that invest multi-issue story arcs explaining the red hat/yellow hat thing. I don’t care. I’m 56 years old, I understand things have changed.
Somewhere along the way we’ve stopped entertaining and gotten morosely engaged with this continuity stuff. Continuity exists to serve the stories, not the other way around.
Ultimately, because of the varying events both past and upcoming, it proved impossible to do the JJ thing, so editor Antone came up with the next best thing. “Lazarus…” walks right up to the Judas Contract and knocks on the door, but we don’t fully go there because, honestly, we couldn’t.

Crowning Moment of Awesome - Superman and Nightwing
At one point in 1999, Superman was on some sort of overprotective binge (I can't recall exactly why, some crisis or other he was guilt tripping over), and cameo-ing in every DC title they could cram him into...
This landed him smack bang in the middle of issue 2 of the new "Titans" comic, and as they were hardly up and running themselves, it was not the most comfortable meeting.
Something tells me that as this was an editorially mandated crossover and Devin Grayson making the best of it.
( The politest 'Superman, just piss off' ever )
