Where it came from
Published by DC Comics in October 1980, DC Comics Presents #26 is a significant entry in the company's bronze age history, primarily serving as the launchpad for the New Teen Titans. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by George Pérez, the issue features a framing story involving Superman and Green Lantern, but its historical weight rests on the 'Preview' segment that introduced the revamped roster of Robin, Wonder Girl, Kid Flash, Starfire, Raven, Cyborg, and Changeling.
The creative synergy between Wolfman and Pérez was deliberate, aiming to modernize DC's young hero stable to compete with the rising popularity of Marvel's X-Men. The design of the new characters, particularly the more alien or robotic aesthetics of Starfire and Cyborg, reflected a shift toward serialized, character-driven drama. The preview was exceptionally well-received by readers, setting the stage for the massive commercial and critical success of The New Teen Titans series that followed shortly thereafter.
