Comments:
The Teen Titans have been formally organized and named since the events in Brave and the Bold #54, with Wonder Girl and Speedy included as charter members, as revealed in Teen Titans #53, and have been involved in one other case together, as recounted in Teen Titans #4, prior to the events of this story.
Kid Flash's costume is colored incorrectly, with yellow leggings, throughout this story. The earpieces on his mask are also mistakenly colored yellow in several later stories.
Wonder Girl is not to be confused with Wonder Woman as a teenager. Wonder Girl is Wonder Woman's adopted sister and Hippolyta's adopted daughter. The author of this story mistakenly believed that the Wonder Girl appearing concurrently in Wonder Woman's magazine was an entirely separate character, so she was included in the Teen Titans. Since Wonder Woman's adult adventures are contemporary to the Titans, her adventures as a teenage Wonder Girl must have taken place years before the Teen Titans stories. Therefore, the Wonder Girl appearing in Teen Titans must be an entirely separate character as confirmed in Teen Titans #22, where her name Donna Troy is also revealed. Donna's given name, Donna Hinckley, and adopted name, Donna Stacey, are both revealed in New Teen Titans #38.
Synopsis:
Now organized as the Teen Titans, Robin, Kid Flash, Aqualad, and Wonder Girl respond to a call for help from the teenagers of Midville. The youngsters' "Teen Government for a Day" project is violently disrupted by the reappearance of the Separated Man, a gigantic being able to separate his body parts, the creation of Professor Brian Holmes, father of the young "mayor for a day." The revived menace is actually Jake Trask, the professor's former prison cellmate, who has stolen the scientist's molecular formula and used it on himself, but the citizens of Midville believe the creature to be a transformed Professor Holmes, as was the case when the Separated Man previously appeared. With the aid of the professor and the Midville teenagers, the Teen Titans are able to subdue the Separated Man long enough to administer an antidote which restores him to normal.
