THE INCREDIBLE TRI-MAN - PART THREE...

Two titanic TRI-MAN episodes for you this time, folks, as that gives you four SOLANO LOPEZ pages to enjoy. JOHNNY SMALL's got his work cut out for him when - but wait! Why tell you when you can read it for yourselves? So what're you waiting for? Get reading!

By now, were readers writing in to Smash, raving about Tri-Man?
A Marvel- style UK superhero, brilliantly drawn by Lopez, I mean, what's not to like?; 23 May 2016 at 22:50
Kid said...: Well, as the strip only lasted for 21 episodes before sinking without trace, JP, I don't think too many readers could've been raving about it, sadly. Me, I liked it.; 23 May 2016 at 23:21
John Pitt said...: So far, it's just the four of us then?; 23 May 2016 at 23:38
Kid said...: Who's the fourth? I count only me, you and McScotty. Who'd I miss?; 24 May 2016 at 00:16
John Pitt said...: TC , previous post!; 24 May 2016 at 00:33
Kid said...: Gah! How could I miss TC? I must pay more attention.; 24 May 2016 at 00:52

About the artist:

From 1985 to 2000 A.D. (little joke there), I contributed to a variety of high profile comics and magazines for various companies.

For IPC/FLEETWAY/EGMONT, I freelanced as a lettering and logo artist on various weekly comics and monthly magazines, and also as a resize comic artist and spot illustrator on pocket books, summer specials and annuals.

For MARVEL U.K., BLACK LIBRARY, REDAN and USBORNE BOOKS, I again freelanced as a lettering artist, also working as a restoration artist for MARVEL U.S., restoring and re-creating certain pages of JACK KIRBY art for their MARVEL MASTERWORKS editions.

I also lettered the MARVELMAN sample pages submitted to MARVEL U.S. when they were considering acquiring the character, which - as we all now know - they DID.

Supplied comic strips, cartoons and illustrated advertisements for local business campaigns and newspaper publication on a professional basis since the age of 16. Did my first paid art job for publication at 14 or 15 for Lanarkshire Education Board.

Have also made TV appearances as a collector of memorabilia.
