Tales of the Teen Titans #73

Marv Wolfman, Eduardo Barreto, and Romeo Tanghal bring you Tales of the Teen Titans #73, and Jerry Ordway's cover sets an unmistakably romantic, bittersweet tone — Nightwing and Starfire stand close together in the foreground while a ghostly, oversized vision of the two nearly kissing looms behind them, accompanied by a crashed or burning aircraft and the haunting tagline "For the Last Time…" It's a visually rich 1987 DC issue that balances tender emotion with a sense of dramatic stakes. Fans of this era's Titans storytelling will find this one hard to pass up.
