Bah! Her mental powers are nothing compared to Kid Psycho, who went on to have a distinguished...oh...never mind... There are few more humiliating legacies for a superhero than to be a casualty of Crisis on Infinite Earths. Even the ones who came back to life were treated like unwelcome intruders in the "Post Post Post Post Crisis" universe.

Poor Kid Psycho. The Legion had to give someone up, and they really dug deep into their roster for this one... he didn't even appear during the Great Darkness Saga

Back then, I was only reading the news stand version of the title. I knew there was a Baxter book, that I'd catch up with. So I thought Kid Psycho was a new member, I'd yet to see join, whose career was tragically cut short. I was looking forward to finding out about him.

Kind of like Kole, suddenly appears in COIE and in the Titans book around the same time.
She was so competent and calm in COIE, whereas in the normal Titans book she was kinda weepy and clingy. while reading COIE I thought she was an established, competent member. got quite a shock when reading the Titans book and seeing how new she was.

The first chronological appearance of Kole was drawn by the great Jose Luis Garcia Lopez. I agree she was a more appealing character in COIE, but I like Garcia Lopez better than George Pérez. No disrespect meant to the memory of Pérez.

Kole also had a very elaborate costume - she was not easy to draw!

The fact that she dies alongside Robin and Huntress makes me think that there really ought to be an "Earth-2" version of Kole.

Does Kole include herself in the 10, or is it an odd Kole and the 10 other Koles?

And we've another one next week, and so soon after the Egg rolling festival long weekend. This spoils us a bit for the rest of the year.

True, and Maypole dancing doesn't get any easier as the years go on, so good to get recovery time.
