Jarrod Jupiter, the son of Titans benefactor Loren Jupiter?

And half-brother of Lilith, yes!

Your Q, IB.

I can recall exactly one Titan who had no speaking line in the Titans/Legion crossover, which was somewhat impressive considering that every Titan (and some allies) up to that point had appeared.

Who was that Titan?

If I'm understanding the question correctly, this is a Titan who appeared in the book but didn't speak (rather than a Titan who didn't appear and didn't speak).

I don't remember Mal Duncan speaking (or appearing) in that book so I'll say him.

That's right, Blacula. So this Titan basically had a cameo appearance.

Mal appeared as the Herald, and he did speak at least twice that I can remember, though.

I'm guessing this is one of the "killed" Titans who was later revived by timestream hijinks. Unless we're actually talking the Titans/JLA mini.

Jesse Quick?

Oh my gosh!

I posted Titans/Legion, when I meant Titans/JLA. :facepalm:

Note to self: proofread all posts made after a 12-hour workday.

So no, it wasn't Jesse Quick either - she wasn't a Titan yet at that point.

Sorry, guys Reposting the Q:

Joto

Correct, Xben! You're up.

I have to confess here, Invisible Brainiac, that my Titans knowledge is so slim that I don't even know who Joto is. I got the answer only because you commented on this very piece of trivia on this thread about two pages ago.

But for my question, in the famous XMen / Titans crossover from 1984, who are the seven and a half characters who appear on the front cover? (Hint: 3 of them are Titans)

Joto was a member of the Jurgens Teen Titans, Xben. You may know him better as his current name Hotspot.

I haven't read that crossover but I'll guess -

Storm
Wolverine
Colossus
Jean Grey
Robin
Changeling
Raven
and
Galactus?

Nope - not familiar with Hotspot either. I know Jurgens had a run on Titans with the (annoyingly) de-aged Ray Palmer. Was it any good?

You have 3 characters correct, including one Titan.

Hotspot was also in the Teen Titans Go! cartoon and comic, 52 and made some appearances in Geoff Johns' One Year Later Titans era.

The Jurgens era was hit and miss. It had great art and some great guest appearances (including Postboot Inferno as I recall) and I liked some of the stories... but I didn't really like the main two spotlighted Titans at the time, Risk and Argent, (though I like them well enough now) and, tellingly, the team never really felt like a proper Titans team to me.

They're an interesting blip in Titans history but one that will probably be forgotten in the DCnU.

My Titans knowledge is pretty limited as well. I like many of the characters individually, but they never grabbed me as much as the Legion or Justice League did. There are several runs that I've never read as well, including Jurgens.

I did read Wolfman-Perez, but annoyingly, a lot of those issues are a jumbled blur in my memory.

Just realized that I had put 1984 in my question. Not that it makes any difference, but it actually came out in 1982. I'd just put '84 in as a placeholder until I had a chance to check, but forgot to until now.

I'll guess:

Jean Grey
Cyclops
Professor X
Wolverine
Storm
Changeling
Starfire
Cyborg

5 correct, including one Titan.

Just curious, IB - did you know that you had just mentioned your trivia question on this thread a couple of pages back?

Xben, yes I did. My Titans knowledge isn't particular deep, so I just went with that. I was also pretty tired then and didn't want to stall the thread any longer than I had to.

Reguessing:


Jean Grey
Cyclops
Professor X
Wolverine
Kitty Pryde
Changeling
Jericho
Wonder Girl

Now 4 correct, including one Titan

Cyclops
Robin
Wonder Girl
Storm
Jean Grey
Starfire
Professor X
Nightcrawler

Hmmm...

Changeling could be the correct Titan, since he was in Blacula's guess too. But I'm stumped as to who the other 2 Titans are.

Let's try:

Jean Grey
Cyclops
Wolverine
Storm
Changeling
Wally West
Lilith
Darkseid

I feel like the half-character was a villain but I don't know enough X-Men villains.

Wolverine
Jean Grey
Cyclops
Nightcrawler
Storm
Robin
Starfire
Wonder Girl

Quislet has it correct! The half character was Professor X, and technically, it was actually Dark Phoenix as opposed to Jean Grey, but I thought that was close enough.

Interesting for me to note that Wolverine wasn't put front and center on the cover - I guess it was before the days of his uber-popularity? Of course it was a wrap-around, so the rest of the characters (including the other half of Professor X) were on the back.

Hmmmmmm... a question.....

What was the name of Bethany Snow's talk show?

Hmm this is an obscure one...

Snow Patrol?
