Irwin R. Schyster

Irwin R. Schyster — known as IRS — is a villainous professional wrestler and tax-collecting antagonist from WWE's golden era, brought into comics as part of Boom! Studios' celebration of pro wrestling history alongside legends like The Undertaker and Ric Flair.

Few characters embody the delicious villainy of sports-entertainment's golden era quite like Irwin R. Schyster, the tax-collecting menace who made his comics debut in NBM's WWE Superstars #12 in 2015, brought to the page by creator Joylon Yates. A Modern Age comics arrival, IRS haunts a run of titles — WWE Superstars, WWE: Then. Now. Forever., and WWE: Forever — that celebrate professional wrestling's rich history, sharing those pages with absolute legends like The Undertaker, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Mr. Perfect. His five catalog appearances make each one a genuine find for the wrestling comics completist, a snapshot of one of the sport's most memorably insufferable characters translated into sequential art form.
