The New Titans #57

A massive armored villain looms in a targeting crosshair on George Pérez's striking cover for The New Titans #57, while three alarmed Titans — including a wide-eyed blonde hero and two frightened young women — react in the foreground with unmistakable urgency. The title "Inside Information" sets a tense, conspiratorial tone that pairs perfectly with the sense that something dangerous has just come into focus. With Marv Wolfman and Pérez co-writing and Pérez also handling both pencils and inks, this 1989 issue showcases the creative team at a confident peak.
