The Young Aquarians team with Batman and the Teen Titans to defend a neighborhood from the establishment and the mob. A dated – make that VERY dated – story from Bob Haney, with great art from Bat-art-legends Jim Aparo and Neal Adams.

Batman teams with Dove to rescue Hawk, who is in trouble following the death of a drug dealer’s son. A fitting farewell to Hawk and Dove (who would later be brought back, of course), from the team of Alan Brennert and Jim Aparo.
