    Too bad it is just a mini series. I would like Ed to be with the Titans (any book) for at least two years period. I just loved his art so much.

    I think this looks really good, but I am left with two questions:

    1) Just how old was Robert when he died now? When Donna was dating Kyle and appearing in Green Lantern, Robert was around 3 years old. Now they've got him dying at around a year old?

    2) Why isn't Dawn's hair blonde when she's not Dove? Does it have something to do with the way she "came back" in JSA? I remember the storyline, but not how it may have affected her appearance.

    See THIS writer and artist look like they could do the series some good. I love the artwork, and even though I've only seen the first few pages, I'm interested in seeing where it goes.

    Oh and Anonymous your questions can be answered in two words:

    SUPERBOY PUNCH!

    >Shrugs< Robert was supposed to be three when he died. But no doubt they decided to say he was younger in order to make Donna from being 'old' and also because it would be more disturbing for Donna's son to be a zombie baby as opposed to a zombie kid.

    As for Dawn's hair, it looked blue more than white, so maybe she's just dying her hair these days.

    I hope they don't bring Lilith back for Blackest Night as a zombie. I want her back as a Titan.
