Trok

Trok made their entrance in the very first year of Jack Kirby's landmark New Gods saga — debuting in issue #2 in 1971, right at the dawn of the Bronze Age, when the King was reshaping DC's cosmos from the ground up. A figure who shares the pages with heavy hitters like Darkseid and the denizens of that sprawling Fourth World mythology, Trok occupies a corner of one of comics' most ambitious and beloved cosmologies. With appearances spanning sixteen years and a spot in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe — the ultimate roll call of DC's universe — this character earned a lasting place in the canon. Rare in the catalog but born from Kirby's most visionary work, Trok is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes digging into the New Gods so rewarding.
