Customer Reviews

Exquisite Work, Thanks Matt Wagner!

I had forgotten how much I enjoy when an author writes and draws his own book. I can't help but feel that Wagner really poured his heart into Trinity. It's beautiful to look at and the story was an awful lot of fun. I don't know the strict definition of comic book vs. graphic novel, but this goes on my shelf with Batman: The Cult, Superman: Birthright, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, We3 and others that I call "graphic novels".

Fascinating, with interesting illustration work

This book is another in a series of many comic "retellings." In this book, veteran graphic novelist Matt Wagner retells the story of the meeting of Wonder Woman and Superman & Batman. The evil Ra's al Ghul has reawakened Bizarro, and has used him to capture a group of nuclear weapons, but for what purpose? Superman and Batman are on the job, but a beautiful new superhero, Wonder Woman, might just give them the edge they need, if they can all learn to work together. Overall, I found this to be a fascinating and highly entertaining graphic novel. The style of the illustration reminded me of the original Golden Age comics, where these three characters got their start. I found that that really enhanced the feeling of continuity in this retelling. My eleven-year-old son really enjoyed this book, as did I. So, if you love a good Superman/Batman/Wonder Woman story, then get this book - it's great!

Read This And Smile....

This book is a work of love and you can feel it in every word and every panel. Matt Wagner, like the rest of us, loves Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Read this book and fall in love with them all over again. I really don't know how to review this work without sounding like an idiot gushing with praise and sucking up to Matt Wagner. I know that my review will sound biased - but then, isn't that why reviews are written? You don't have to agree with me but I'll say what I say. Read the book for yourself and make up your own mind. There's really so much to like about this work. I think I'll try to make up a list: 1. The Golden-Age style of artwork is magical. The whole thing comes off like a dream rather than the "realistic-take" that is so popular today. 2. The first meeting of the World's Finest team (Superman & Batman for the uninitiated) with the "wonder"-ful woman who will rock both their lives. 3. The invisible plane. 4. Bizarro calling Ra's Al-Ghul "Racer Cool" 5. Wonder Woman's terribly unfashionable star-spangled pants! 6. Batman going nuts in Paradise (and kissing Wondy!!!). 7. Clark Kent missing the train for work (to keep up "appearances"). 8. Cameos from Robin and Aquaman. I can go on forever but I know that I'll be speaking as a fan totally in love with this work. This is the kind of book that makes me proud to call myself a geeky fanboy!
