Blue Beetle #13 (1987)

The cover features Dick Grayson, Donna Troy, Changling, Cyborg, and Starfire. Sure, their backs are to the reader, but they're all identifiable...

Every appearance with them I've read is just silly fun. There's an Art Adams Excalibur story with them and Kitty Pryde vs. Mojo that just kicks all kinds of butt. heh. Fanboy. Usually when I think of the Titans I think of Nightwing, mostly because he was the character I liked the most and first encountered as a Titan (before I knew it was Dick Grayson, back when I was just getting into comics). But when I think of the recent cartoon, it's Beast Boy, because to me he's the true heart of that version of the team. I love the X-babies! Every appearance with them I've read is just silly fun.

And are you counting "mini marvels" in your tally of kid versions? There was a good one (I thought) in WWH: Prologue.

This is especially amazing given that I didn't read the issues in question until ten years after they came out. But I associate Gar Logan with the titans more than anyone else. It's in the same sort of way I associate Nighthawk with the Defenders more than anyone else. For what it's worth, I have a special place in my heart for the Pantha/Red Star interaction in Titans.
