The Triumph Division (They’re not that dead)
August 13, 2008You guys remember Matt Fraction’s Triumph Division from his Invincible Iron Man? You know, the guys who got blown up to fucken’ smithereens? After doing that, he went on record saying not to count the Triumph Division out just yet.
Well, Matty-boy didn’t let us down. I love how he put that whole spin on the heritage thing, and he says it’s been going on for centuries. So our heroes are sort of like the Immortal Iron Fist? Cool stuff.
Check it out, they’ve even got their very own (albeit very empty) Wiki page.
So, the successors of the slain heroes are from the family of the ones that Zeke Stane blew up, but the relationships are unknown. I doubt we’d get even a one shot of the Triumph Division, but since Matt Frac created such lush playground for stories, here’s to hoping that we see Iron Man pay them a visit.
“The Philippines are in good hands.” said Iron Man. They are, indeed. But you know what, Salvador Larocca could at least draw the fucken’ headquarters like a decent HQ, and not a cement nippa hut, godddamn it.
