Teen Titans #11

The cover of this October 1967 DC issue says it all with a bold, irresistible announcement — "Twang!! Speedy's Back!" — as the green-clad archer draws his bow at the center of a massive, tooth-lined mechanical maw while Robin, Aqualad, Wonder Girl, and Kid Flash battle villains caught in the same churning, watery trap. Nick Cardy's cover art crackles with kinetic energy, juggling a full cast of Titans — plus a guest-star portrait banner running across the top — without losing an ounce of clarity or excitement. With Bob Haney writing and Irv Novick on interior art, "Monster Bait!" promises exactly the kind of propulsive, colorful adventure that made the Silver Age Teen Titans such a treat.
