Book of the Week
The Judas Contract
This essential DC graphic novel is now available in a deluxe hardcover, as writer Marv Wolfman (CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS) and artist George Perez (FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF THREE WORLDS) tell the greatest Titans story ever in TEEN TITANS: THE JUDAS CONTRACT DELUXE EDITION!
They were Earth’s teenage defenders–unbeatable and unstoppable. Riding high, they took an eighth member–a young girl–into their ranks. And she would be their downfall.
This new collection of THE NEW TEEN TITANS #39 and #40, TALES OF THE TEEN TITANS #41-44 and ANNUAL #3 features “The Judas Contract”! 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.
