The series reached its greatest heights with the Judas Contract storyline--a multipart epic that played on comics readers’ expectations and offered shocking revelations and surprising twists at every turn. From the retirement of Robin and Kid Flash, to the birth of Nightwing and the introduction of Jericho, to the ultimate betrayal of a Titan, “The Judas Contract” kept readers positively riveted during its initial run, and still has fans talking today.THE JUDAS CONTRACT is written by fan-favorite author Marv Wolfman (NEW TEEN TITANS, RAVEN). Collects THE NEW TEEN TITANS #39 and 40, TALES OF THE TEEN TITANS #41-44 and ANNUAL #3. I ignored The New Teen Titans when it was on newsstands in the 1980s because I thought it no better than the teams original incarnation, which I dismissed as a junior Justice League (or as artist George Perez called it in his introduction to this volume, Justice Little League). After all, why bother reading about the sidekicks of Batman, Wonder Woman, and the Flash when their mentors were appearing in Justice League of America? However, my interest in The New Teen Titans was piqued recently when DC Entertainment announced a direct-to-video animated movie based on the teams most well-known storyline, The Judas Contract. Simultaneously, DC Comics issued a new edition of the standalone trade paperback which first appeared in 1988.For either new readers or for those, like myself, who ignored the Titans the first time, this new edition of The Judas Contract is an ideal introduction.By todays standards, its modest in terms of length-only four issues, three of Tales of the Teen Titans and a Teen Titans Annual. But it does not lack for either action or drama.The story owes its title to a contract which the Titans archenemy-Deathstroke the Terminator, aka Slade Wilson-is trying to complete on behalf of his dead son, Grant, for an organization of evil called H.I.V.E. This subplot had been in the background of The New Teen Titans from its beginning in 1980. But new readers wont feel adrift without having read prior NTT issues or collected editions, as writer Marv Wolfman explains the situation well enough-and pays it off-without resorting to blatant exposition dumps.Wolfman also reveals Deathstrokes history, which hed kept shrouded in mystery throughout those previous issues and collections, by introducing readers to his embittered ex-wife, Adeline, and their surviving son, Joseph, who is able to control peoples motor functions through eye contact. In the course of the tale he adopts his own superhero identity, Jericho-thus pitting son against father.Along with his fellow Titans Cyborg, Raven and Starfire, Jericho was important in establishing the Titans as its own entity, rather than a Justice League knockoff. In addition, Adeline has since influenced Deathstrokes evolution from villain to antihero.The Judas of the title is Tara Markov, aka Terra, a teenage girl with the power to manipulate earth and earth-related materials who had appeared in NTT for two years prior to this storyline and had become as good as family to the Titans, though not an official team member.Wolfman also connected her to another team book of the time, Batman and The Outsiders, by establishing her as the sister of that teams Geo-Force. So she seemed a superstar in the making. However-spoiler alert-she was really a psychopath who had partnered with Deathstroke out of mutual hatred of the Titans and infiltrated the team in order to destroy them.The storys one weakness is the rationale-or lack thereof-for Markovs actions. Wolfman doesnt give her any reason to hate the Titans. No one taught her to hate, yet she hates...without cause, without reason, he writes in the storys climax. Dont look for reasons which do not exist-plainly, Tara Markov is what she is... He might as well have written, The storys almost over, I havent come up with a good rationale for my villains actions, and I cant be bothered now. It doesnt damage the story, but to those like myself who believe people have reasons for their actions, its annoying.Wolfman also gives the Titans added angst-and further establishes them as their own unit-by having Wally West, aka Kid Flash, retire from superheroics and return to college and having Dick Grayson abandon his Robin identity-which Dick says will always be the back half of Batman and Robin-and do some soul-searching before adopting his own crimefighting identity as Nightwing.Through his detailed artwork and his distinctive page layouts, Perez gives The Judas Contract the same epic quality hed given The Avengers and would later give Wonder Woman. Hes aided by three inkers- Dick Giordano, Mike DeCarlo and Romeo Tanghal-but the transition between them is so seamless the reader wont notice, and be taken out of the story.The Judas Contract won the Comics Buyers Guide Fan Award for Favorite Story of 1984. After reading this collection, its easy to see why.

However, it's the extent to Titans: she takes it while contract that she's jeopardizing the teen relationship she has that causes the New for me. Candid and detail oriented throughout the edition.
