Trio


John Byrne, perhaps more than any comic book artist and writer has been responsible for the rejuvenations, revisions, re-imaginings and creations of some of the most important characters in comic books. He has successfully re-launched Superman, revamped Wonder Woman, reinvigorated Spider-Man, created Alpha Flight, toughened up Wolverine, revitalized the Fantastic Four and the X-Men, re-envisioned She-Hulk, The Demon, the Doom Patrol-the list goes on and on.


Recently most of John’s work has been for IDW. While there he has introduced various new projects, given his own unique visions to existing properties and brought back a fan favorite.


John has returned to his roots with a no-holds-barred super hero title called Trio. Dubbed paper, Scissor and Rock the Trio title harkens back to the time when superhero comics were about solid action, interesting characters and a story plot that is both exciting and intriguing.


The story starts out with a mechanized antagonist, the introduction of the main characters and sprinkled with enough mysteries to whet any comic book reader’s appetite. Trio is John Byrne at his best-ripe with imagination, a solid story and just plain fun to read. Don’t miss it!
