I love it too. There are loads of Supergirl covers I love though.

Dick was indeed moving on to establish his own hero identity. Wally was quitting due to health issues. One thing of note with that Titans cover.

That's a pretty remarkable shot of heroes giving up their costumes. My favourite cover of the action 252 is the 3rd print of Supergirl #1 (2005) by Ed McGuiness (I think). Very cool! This is going to be a great series of covers. Sandman 20, anyone? Cheers, B can we see Teen Titans #26 (1960s series)? That’s a pretty remarkable shot of heroes giving up their costumes.

I'd like to see Justice League of America #34 from the JLI days. The Kooey Kooey Kooey issue with Fire on the cover serving drinks to Blue Beetle and Booster Gold. It's a very funny cover and the one which seems to be the most often posted to convey the occassional light-hearted nature of the series. -Citizen Scribbler I just thought of a suggestion.
