Redbird

Redbird soared onto the page in 1996, a Wildstorm creation brought to life by Warren Ellis and Richard Johnson during comics' energetic Modern Age. With only a handful of catalog appearances spread across DV8 vs. Black Ops, Wildstorm Swimsuits '97, and Wildstorm Universe 97, this is a rare, blink-and-you'll-miss-it corner of the Image universe — the kind of character that makes deep-dive collectors sit up straight. Sharing pages with the likes of Swift, Grunge, and Copycat places Redbird squarely within Wildstorm's wild, irreverent ecosystem, and for fans who love hunting the edges of that mid-'90s universe, tracking down these few appearances is a genuine treasure hunt.
