Titans / Young Justice: Graduation Day #3

The conclusion to this 2003 DC crossover event arrives with a striking cover by Alé Garza and Trevor Scott: Nightwing cradles a limp, dark-haired young woman in his arms, her body disturbingly still against his blue-and-black costume, all framed by the chilling tagline "You Fail… You Die!" Judd Winick brings "Graduation Day" to its close in this final chapter of three, with both the Titans and Young Justice caught in whatever grim consequences that ominous cover promises. It's a genuinely affecting image — quiet and heavy where you might expect chaos — that makes this finale hard to set aside.
