Troy Wilde

Troy Wilde arrived in the pages of Malibu's The Solution in 1994, stepping into the bold, ambitious corner of the Ultraverse that writers and artists like James D. Hudnall and John Statema were carving out during comics' Modern Age. With only nine catalogued appearances spread across The Solution and both chapters of The Phoenix Resurrection, Wilde is a rare find — the kind of character who keeps genuinely interesting company, sharing adventures with the likes of Shadowmage, Drop Kick, and Lela Cho in a publisher line that burned bright and fast. For collectors with a soft spot for Malibu's short-lived but creatively daring Ultraverse era, Troy Wilde is exactly the sort of discovery that makes digging through back-issue bins so rewarding.
