Set Description
Complete 9.8 and nearly all WP set of this fantastic series from DC from 1980 through late 1985, including many signature series books. I am here to recruit you to be a fan, like I am, of this series! My descriptions are also now complete, in which I have a picture for each book below and a description that includes the following: (1) my favorite part about that particular book; (2) trivia, worthless or otherwise, about that book; and (3) information on how I obtained that book (so that you can try to do so as well). I promise, I've tried to be somewhat interesting, even if you're not a NTT fanboy. This series had me in the comic shops once a month back in the day, until, in my opinion, DC killed this series by changing its title (at issue 41), changing its format (starting repeats, and of a different series, with issue 59), and increasing the price by, essentially, replacing this series with the other New Teen Titans (1984) series on Baxter paper (although both series overlapped each other, and were both publishing new stories, at least for awhile). They've tried to bring this series back a few times, recently with some success, but nothing beats the original! Moreover, from a collecting standpoint, many current, hot DC heroes and villains first appeared in this series, so these books will always be collectible, regardless of what happened in the past or what happens in the future. Since the series is fairly compact (there are only 67 books below in this set), it's a fun set to try to collect, and only DC Comics Presents 26 (1st appearances of NTT, Starfire, Raven and Cyborg), New Teen Titans 1, and New Teen Titans 2 (1st appearance of Deathstroke) are expensive. Some books, however, are very rare in high grade, at least to date, including issues 4, 5, 24, 36, 57 and 58. In particular, kudos to RJ's Back Issue Comics (for his special order service), adouglaw (ebay), Neatstuff Collectibles (ebay), cougar85 (ebay), warehouse auctioncenters (ebay), allcomixs (ebay), titanstower.com (THE ultimate NTT info source), rasmus2 (ebay) and par2ch (registry), and Classics Inc., for their invaluable contributions to helping me build this set. Many books are from my own collection, but some books were not - - as who knew in 1980 that CGC would come along years later. In addition to cherry picking anything Titans-related for about the past 8 years, I used to buy entire NM sets of this series to look for particular books that I needed. It was great fun, but I wouldn't want to do it now, as everything has gotten scarcer and more expensive, in particular the super highly graded CGC 9.8's (and even the even rarer 9.9's, which are RIDICULOUSLY expensive). (See thejnich's collection for some of those rare 9.9's, and RJ's Back Issue Comics claims to have sold the NTT 1 CGC 9.9, unfortunately, not to me as it was sold well before my time). Look at it this way, I won't be competing with you for these books - - since I already got them. Unless, of course, I can get a signature series book (primarily with par2ch's invaluable assistance) or a 9.9 to replace one of my existing books... Good luck! Senator
