Notes
- This issue is reprinted in Silver Age Teen Titans Archives, Volume 1, Showcase Presents: Teen Titans, Volume 1 and Superboy (Volume 1) #185.
- This issue is indexed in The Official Teen Titans Index #1 by Independent Comics Group (ICG).
- This issue is the first canonical appearance of the Teen Titans. Some sources credit Brave and the Bold #54 as the first appearance of the Titans, but they are not identified as the Teen Titans at that time. Since this is the first actual appearance of the Titans as a group, Wonder Girl may be considered as founding member rather than a recruit. The Teen Titans appear next as a group in Showcase #59.
- The Wonder Girl that appears in this issue is not to be confused with young Princess Diana who often shared in time-traveling adventures with her older and younger selves as Wonder Girl. When the Teen Titans team dynamic was first conceived, the creative staff were unaware that Wonder Girl was actually just a younger version of Wonder Woman and not a separate character. In the history of the Titans, Wonder Girl is treated as a separate individual. This innocent mishap of mistaken identities eventually evolved into a perpetuating continuity quagmire for the character - one that would go through several revisions over the years depending upon the creative team charged with handling her at the time. Wonder Girl's given name, Donna Troy, will not be revealed until Teen Titans #22. Donna's orgin is expanded upon in New Teen Titans (Volume 1) #38 in a story entitled "Who is Donna Troy". Her back-story evolves even further in the five-part "Who is Wonder Girl" storyline from New Titans #50-55. Wonder Girl makes a chronologically earlier appearance in Teen Titans #4. She appears next in Showcase #59.
