Byrd Rentals

A product of DC's wonderfully offbeat early-'80s Bronze Age, Byrd Rentals made their debut in the very first issue of Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew! in 1982 — launched by the creative dream team of Roy Thomas, Scott Shaw!, and Ross Andru. This character inhabits the delightfully zany corner of the DC Universe where funny-animal adventure reigned supreme, sharing pages with fan favorites like Captain Carrot, Rubberduck, and Pig-Iron. Significant enough to earn a spot in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe, Byrd Rentals is a charming piece of Bronze Age DC history — the kind of character that rewards curious collectors who love discovering the full, gloriously weird breadth of what comics had to offer.
