Harley Quinn will be coming off majorly screwing up DC Comics continuity when Harley Quinn #51 hits store shelves in October, which means nearly anything is possible in the aftermath. One such possibility (turned actuality) is the return of a long-lost Golden Age hero named Captain Triumph.

According to the DC Comics solicitations released today, Captain Triumph will make his triumphant return to relevancy in Harley Quinn #51. The solicit teases that Captain Triumph will be pulled from his own time into our modern world, which means there’s bound to be some… cultural misunderstandings.

  • Harley broke most of DCU continuity last issue, and in this ish, she’s dealing with the fallout, namely the time-tossed hero of World War II called Captain Triumph! The golden boy of the Golden Age finds his black-and-white approach failing miserably in the gray areas of the modern world (although unfortunately, there are still plenty of fascists for him to punch). It’s up to Harley to return Captain Triumph to his own time, but she’ll have to put the kibosh on his do-gooding first—right after she figures out what “kibosh” means!

Created by Alfred Andriola, Captain Triumph first debuted in Crack Comics #27. Captain Triumph is actually the aptly-named Lance Gallant, a U.S. Army Air Corps member who enlisted along with his twin brother when the United States was drawn into World War II. Lance’s brother, Michael, went on to become a pilot who perished when the hangar he was landing in blew up. Michael’s injuries would eventually kill him, leading Lance to swear that he would find and punish the kinds of evildoers who dispatched his twin.

Lance’s vengeful prayers were heard by the mythological Fates. The Fates imbued Lance with the power to fuse with the spirit of his brother by touching a T-shaped birthmark on his wrist, thus becoming the superhero Captain Triumph. Unfortunately, according to a solicit for Harley Quinn #52, it sounds like Lance really isn’t vibing with our time.

  • Trapped in a future he doesn’t understand, Captain Triumph can’t battle his way out of our modern world, as all his efforts lead to disaster. That causes him to butt heads and trade punches with his would-be protector, Harley Quinn. Can Harley talk her way out of this clash? And more importantly, where’s she getting a time machine so she can send Captain Triumph home?

It sounds like the only answer to Captain Triumph’s woes might be for Harley to arrange a trip back to his native time.
