Titanic Tuesdays: "You Can't Say No to the Angel of Death! (Or Can You?)" by Rozakis, Novick, and Colletta

What it is, Groove-ophiles! Well, you seemed to get a kick our of our last visit to the Teen Titan's  1976/77 revival, even though you know it wasn't a blockbuster mag by any stretch. Still, it's fun to see what happened between the classic Silver Age Titans and the superstar Titans of the 80s, so--ta-dah! here's yet another new departmant: Titanic Tuesdays! We know Bob Rozakis is gonna try to give us our quarter's worth each month with cool plots, DC-filtered, Marvel-ized characterization, and the continuing quest to make a super-hero out of Mal. Artistically we'll get a very mixed bag, let Ol' Groove warn ya! But hey, t'was part of our beloved Groovy Age! Today we're peeling back the pages of Teen Titans #45 (September 1976) for "You Can't Say no to the Angel of Death! (Or Can You?" with art by Irv Novick and Vinnie Colletta!
