Post-Zero Hour Plans That Never Happened


Roy Harper vs. Dick Grayson?

From From Wizard Press Presents: Beyond Zero Hour: "Of course, no new team can be formed without problems. "For the present, Roy Harper is in charge of the Titans. Dick Grayson is off with Batman doing whatever he's doing. But Dick will want to return," reveals Wolfman. "When he does, he will find a group that doesn't necessarily want him as their leader. They are quite happy with the one they have, thank you. What will Dick do? Will he try to take over? Will he form another group of Titans? Who will stay with Arsenal and who will go?"

Rose Wilson: The Series?

By the time Deathstroke #55 was written, the last arc of the New Titans [#127-130] was being crafted. Rose might have been written out of the Titans to use her elsewhere.

From 1995: "Also the character that we call the Daughter of Deathstroke, who has been in the background for about a year and a half now, will really come to play at the end of ÔThe Hunted' story line. It's pretty much about her. We're also doing three issues that will feature a back-up story that stars Wintergreen and the Daughter of Deathstroke."

Titans and Deathstroke editor Pat Garrahy saw potential in Rose Wilson. At a New York convention in 1995, he expressed an interest in spinning off Rose into her own series as the Daughter of Deathstroke. He also detailed the nature of her powers was based on adrenaline. The more adrenaline, the more enhanced her meta-human powers would manifest. So in Deathstroke #51, her fever dream was a result of the increased adreneline of the shock she was in. He envisioned her as an expert fighter, able to use her precognitive abilities to 'see' her opponent's next moves.

Marv on hints that Terra II is Terra I:

"The editor at the time insisted we do that story. I didn't want to, even though it was agreed on in advance the new Terra would NOT be related in any way to the old. I just didn't see any reason to bring it up again. At about this time I asked off the title. My contract brought me to issue #130 and I saw no reason to bring up the Terra situation again in the limited time we had."
