Indexer Notes

Non-advertised, Crisis on Infinite Earths mini-series tie-in, showing Psimon being teleported to the Monitor's satellite and being greeted by Harbinger and the Monitor. Though this story was out the same month as Crisis #7, the Monitor states, "Three months from now shall begin the Crisis on Infinite Earths," indicating the next twelve issue's worth of Titans continuity (The New Teen Titans (DC, 1984 series) #1-12, reprinted in Tales of the Teen Titans (DC, 1984 series) #60-71) happen before crossing over with the Crisis on Infinite Earths series (in The New Teen Titans #13, reprinted in Tales of the Teen Titans #72).
