SUMMARY:
Published by DC Comics for January 2018, “The Search for Steve Trevor” ends. In a flashback, Skartarian sorcerer Deimos makes an illicit deal with shadowy Blue Strike Security, which includes a promise to kill A.R.G.U.S. operative Steve Trevor.
In present-day Skartaris, Wonder Woman battles a magically-mutated Trevor enslaved to Deimos, as Batman & Superman are effectively neutralized. The Warlord and sorceress daughter Jennifer Morgan bring help. Despite his own reinforcements, Deimos underestimates the Trinity’s ingenuity.
Note: There’s a variant cover by art Bill Sienkiewicz.
REVIEW:
Bolstered by excellent artwork, this formulaic adventure gives both Wonder Woman and Batman their expected moments, as Superman merely tags along. Still, this crossover with Warlord & daughter Jennifer Morgan is a nice treat for fans who remember these characters from their 1980’s DC series. Of particular note is Batman’s scene with Jennifer Morgan and the wrap-up of Trevor confronting Blue Strike Security, as both are well-played. Overall, Trinity # 22 isn’t remarkable, but the story makes an entertaining single read
