'When Grant Morrison and Andy Kubert introduced Damian, it went off like an atom bomb in the DC Universe. We were curious what lessons King might have taken from the introduction of Jon and Damian and how the Super Sons might be influencing Trinity's DC debut. So, after I had that idea in my head, I couldn't get it out.'īatman's son Damian and Superman's son Jon have emerged as two of the most popular new DC characters of the past several decades, both individually and through their 'Super Sons' team-ups. It was the kind of thing I'd want to read with them at any age. I have three kids, two of whom are close in age and then one who's 5 years younger than those two, so I'm very familiar with this dynamic and its potential for comedy and drama. This got me thinking about the son of Batman and the son Superman as older brother babysitters and how really the person they should be looking after is their little sister, the daughter of Wonder Woman. 'Mitch had a great idea for doing a sort of all ages short story to follow up on our Mister Miracle series where Jon and Damian would be babysitting Scott and Barda's kid, Jack. 'Hard to remember exactly, but I think I stole at least the first spark from Mitch Gerads, the brilliant artist whom I'm blessed to work with on so many things,' King says. In fact, King tells IGN that Trinity was one of the first ideas he developed for the series, even predating the overarching conflict of the Amazons being branded as outlaws by the US government. This character is a core piece of King and Sampere's plans for the series. Introducing Wonder Woman's daughter is a good hook for a new series, but that's not the only reason she's making her early debut in Wonder Woman #800. Note that that image is an excerpt from King and Sampere's story and will also be featured as a variant cover for Wonder Woman #800. Check out the image below for a first look at the character:Īrt by Daniel Sampere. Trinity will make her debut in a story from writer Tom King (Batman, Mister Miracle) and artist Daniel Sampere (Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths), which serves as a lead-in to their work on the relaunched Wonder Woman series.
