The New Titans #72 (January 1991)



And we’re back to Marv Wolfman Thinks He’s Steinbeck Narration Boxes. He’s not, by the way. Just in case anybody wasn’t clear on that. Also, you should probably read Steinbeck if you haven’t. Especially if you’re one of those people who worship fucking Hemingway. Steinbeck takes Hemingway out behind the barn and puts him out of his misery. I mean, he would have if Hemingway hadn’t, surprisingly, taken Steinbeck’s advice to shoot his own dog. You know what I’m talking about.

In this issue, Wildebeest kills Golden Eagle. I think Marv did this to get people in the letters pages to stop asking for a new Titans West series. As you can see from the cover, Aqualad got Prince of Tidesed. I think. Maybe I’m remembering that movie wrong. Let me check.

Oh shit. That’s what that movie was about? Never mind. Aqualad just got beat up really badly. Wildebeest’s reveal had better be fucking good after all this! He’d better be Doomsday at this point!
