The fun is over...
"She... It was a... A mistake... She didn't mean... mean to hurt anyone..."
Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day is a Fully Absorbed Finale Crossover mini-series between Titans (1999) and Young Justice. The series ran for three issues and was written by Judd Winick and illustrated by Ale Garza.
The Titans and Young Justice have been brought together by a corporation who wished to fund them when suddenly, a blue-skinned cybernetic girl begins attacking the group. How will the Titans fare alongside their successors? Who is the mysterious blue girl? And what does Donna's gothic nightmare truly mean?
Oh, and Tonight, Someone Dies.
Followed up with Teen Titans (2003) and Outsiders (2003).
Tropes particular to Graduation Day:
- Dreaming of Things to Come: Donna Troy's nightmare turns out to be a vision of her own death at the end of the story.
- The Fellowship Has Ended: The series ends with the dissolution of the Titans and Young Justice teams.
- Killer Robot: Occurs twice. First with Brainiac-8, the second with the Superman robot.
- Late-Arrival Spoiler: Donna Troy and Lilith Clay's deaths, obviously.
- Meaningful Funeral: Features one at the end of issue #3 for Donna Troy's death.
- Not Quite Dead: The final pages reveal Donna was transported to another world upon death, and she charges into battle.
- Sacrificial Lion: Lilith Clay and Donna Troy are both killed during the series. Lilith is killed (until the The Culling and Titans Hunt (2015) brought her back for real) and comes back briefly as Mother Mayhem in Teen Titans (2003) whilst Donna gets revived a few years later in The Return Of Donna Troy
"She is not gone She has just left us.
She has know many lives.
She will now know another.
She hears the battle raging on in the distance. The sound of metal meeting metal. The perverse cries of combat.
The Amazon in her stirs.
She does not turn away.
She runs towards it.
