It's interesting how the Titans occasionally go through fits and starts of adding 'legacy' characters.
They started out as sidekicks / legacies with Robin, Kid Flash, Wonder Girl and Speedy, and in later years picked up some non-sidekicks / original characters like Lilith and Starfire and Cyborg, but recent years have seen them go back to the well, with Molecule, Miss Martian, Zachary Zatara, Offspring, Bombshell, CM3, etc.
About the only 'core' Justice League member who doesn't have a legacy as a Titan is the Black Canary, while even Aquaman has at least five different legacy characters (Aqualad/Garth/Tempest, Aquagirl/Tula, the new Aquagirl, Lagoon Boy, the new Aqualad) and, before Black Canary gets a 'legacy,' the Teen Titans have a *Deathstroke* legacy, in Rose Wilson!
The Legion has benefitted from a dearth of legacies, opening up a lot of uniqueness. (Thunder and XS, being exceptions, but not terribly egregious ones, and accompanied by Gear, Gates, Shikari, Kid Quantum II, Monstress, Dragonmage and other non-legacies, to make it more palatable.)
It might be interesting to see a legacy of a legacy, at some point, such as the presence of Tamaranians (or other Vegans) in the UP, or a suggestion that ancient relics of Trigon's power still remain, sealed away on Sorcerer's World.

The story in this issue was my first exposure to the Teen Titans. It was reprinted in Super Team Family #1. Nick Cardy art spoiled me. The next time I saw the Titans was during the Wolfman/Perez run. That art made me expect really great things as well. It was shortly before Issue #50, and I quickly went and started getting back issues that I could afford at the time. Eventually finishing their run through 50 cent boxes over the years...their still some of my favorite comics. From issue #1 of theior intro in the early 80's up until the end of the first Baxter story.
Active LMB character is still Beast Boy.

^ That image is *GREAT* TD!!! LOVE IT! And can't believe I've never seen it before. Wonderful inspiration for future Legion Trivia Thread questions too - "Which Legionnaires did Jericho and Lilith play volleyball against once?"

It's from this: So what about the Titans, the Legion, and Blacula?

*memorizes the scene so I can answer Blacula's future trivia questions*
ah, what could have been. Since Titans/Legion Universe Ablaze sucked royally, and the Titans/Legion Special versus the Fatal 500 wasn't much better, I had blotted out most Titans/Legion interactions before. This scene looks excellent, though.
