READ
After an extended absence, Warlord finally makes his way back to Tara – only to find Shamballah under siege from within! Mike Grell’s story is a bit overstuffed but the art – inked by Joe Rubinstein – is quite nice.
READ
Suffering from blood loss and ravaged by infection, Warlord hallucinates an encounter with an incarnation of Death. Told mostly with splashes and two-panel pages, this simple story from writer/artist Mike Grell is a visual treat.
READ
An old foe of the Warlord returns to Skartaris with a convoluted plan for revenge. While still an above-average Bronze Age comic, Mike Grell’s latest offering is lacking … something.
READ
As Travis Morgan brawls in a tavern, Mariah and Machiste reminisce about their previous adventures with the Warlord. A nice character-building issue from series creator Mike Grell.
READ
Finding respite in a cave, the Warlord recalls the events that first brought him to the savage land of Skartaris. This issue reprints 1st Issue Special #8, the first appearance of Mike Grell’s Warlord.
READ
The Terminator returns with a plan to deal with both H.I.V.E. and the New Teen Titans! Another strong issue with the Titans’ arch nemesis, from the classic creative team of Marv Wolfman and George Pérez.

With half the team under the control of the Puppeteer, the Teen Titans must battle … each other! An enjoyable but slight issue from the regular creative duo of Marv Wolfman and George Pérez.
READ
The Titans get some downtime to go to work, visit friends and family, and play in the park. This “day in the lives” issue by Marv Wolfman and George Pérez is MUCH better than it sounds!
READ
Our heroes return home from Trigon’s dimension to find Titans Tower under the control of the Fearsome Five. A solid outing, but the creative team of Marv Wolfman and George Pérez have moved this book to a different standard.
READ
The Titans invade Trigon’s dimension to save Raven – and discover the demon to be more evil than they imagined! George Pérez returns and Marv Wolfman cranks up the sinister in this excellent conclusion to the original Trigon saga.
