On Donna/Terry break-up:
"The break up happened in Team Titans after I left it. I disagreed with it and said so, but the writer did it anyway. It was wrong in my mind to do it--Donna and Terry would not suddenly split up that way. They may have split up if we saw a real problem between them but I just had them occasionally have Donna's power come between them--something they would have gotten through. Once the divorce was done though, and I got the character back, I could not simply undo what was done. Hence my following up on it etc. It was an editorial decision that led Donna to Kyle...which I also don't feel was right, but had no real reason to argue. IF Donna split with Terry and Dick was splitting with Kory, I would have very slowly had Dick and Donna get together...which I did suggest in an overview memo. "
"Please note the editor in question is not there any more. And I was given lots of leeway with the editor that followed to do the four-parter pretty much as I wished. There were problems but only because of size...I would have liked to expand the last issue to a double-sized book to clear up a few more things, but ultimately outside of the last story being rushed somewhat, I was pleased. Not the best Titans, but I felt the book was back in character, back to being optimistic rather than negative, and the characters were returned to their real characters. You may not like how I did some of it, but Kory is back to being Kory, Vic to Vic and Gar to Gar."
Marv Talks Dick & Donna:
[July 2002: a post from http://www.silverbulletcomicbooks.com/forum]
"I don't usually talk about undone stories because some day they may get done. But yes, there was a Dick-Donna romance planned. Frankly, I would have left her married to her hubby because I still think Terry was the best match for her but since he was killed off without my imput, I did plan to later get the D-twins (Dick & Donna) together, if only for them to see that they were too similar to be together."
