The New Teen Titans #24

Against a stark red background, this October 1986 issue of The New Teen Titans announces its threat loud and clear: "Horror is… The Hybrid!" José Luis García-López's cover depicts a pale, winged creature diving menacingly from above, claws outstretched, toward three figures below — one in a wheelchair flanked by two long-haired companions — rendered in dramatic black and white contrast. Marv Wolfman, Eduardo Barreto, and Romeo Tanghal bring the story inside, promising the kind of dark, character-driven adventure that made this era of Titans genuinely compelling.
