• This is the cover art Jim Lee designed for the
“Trinity” series. Wonder Woman (book #16), Superman (book #17) and
Batman (book #18) each have their own cover, but the art was
actually designed as a single image featuring the three Super
Heroes in action.
• Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman lead the heroes of the DCU
against the machinations of their malevolent counterparts,
resulting in a cataclysmic event that will change the world – but
not like anyone involved expects
• This piece utilizes many of Lee’s renown stylistic cues. Lee
who at one time studied to be a physician at Princeton University,
demonstrates his strong knowledge of the anatomy in order to
create some of the most physically imposing superheroes to date,
while his cross-cut style of illustration, executed through tiny
lines in the character, gives an impression that his characters
are actually moving.
• A consummate comic fan, Lee originally started noted comic
book house, WildStorm, which was later purchased by DC Comics.
WildStorm, which remains under Lee’s direction, created Gen 13,
Wild C.A.T.S. and Astro City, and is known for some of the edgiest
art in comics today.
• “Trinity: Wonder Woman” is produced as a fine art Giclee on
paper, numbered in an edition of 250 paper and is hand-signed by
Lee. It is the first release in a series of three; Superman and
Batman will follow. In 2010 the canvas version featuring the three
characters united, will be released.
