R-Truth

R-Truth is a comic-book adaptation of the real-life WWE professional wrestler, reimagined as a comic hero in Boom! Studios' WWE Heroes universe, where he joins fellow WWE superstars in action-driven stories that blend professional wrestling with superhero adventure.

Few characters bridge the worlds of professional wrestling and comic book heroics quite like R-Truth, who burst onto the page in 2010 courtesy of writers Keith Champagne and artist Andy Smith in the debut issue of WWE Heroes from Boom! Studios. That first appearance is itself a collector-recognized key issue, making it a worthy addition to any Modern Age pull list. Across a compact but memorable run of titles including WWE and WWE SmackDown, R-Truth shares his panels with some of the biggest names in the game — Randy Orton, Triple H, Edge, Kofi Kingston, and Kane — serious company by any measure. For fans who love their comics loud, colorful, and straight out of the squared circle, R-Truth's comics presence is a fun snapshot of an era when Boom! Studios brought WWE's energy crashing into the four-color world.
