Read more about Warlord (Travis Morgan) at: Wikipedia Official Site: D.C Comics The Warlord is a sword and sorcery comic book published by DC Comics. The series and titular character debuted in 1st Issue Special #8 (November 1975), and was created by Mike Grell. The title The Warlord comes from the comic's main character, Travis Morgan, who obtains the name of "The Warlord" in the first few issues as he fights for the freedom of the people of Skartaris. DC attempted an unsuccessful update of Warlord in 2006 with Bruce Jones writing and Bart Sears providing the art. This series was canceled after ten issues due to low sales. In March 2008, Grell stated that he was working on a proposal to DC for a new Warlord series. It was announced in July 2008 that Warlord would be returning as an ongoing series written by Mike Grell in time for the original series' 35th anniversary. The series started in April 2009, drawn by Joe Prado. Although The Warlord has a superficial resemblance to Oliver Queen (Green Arrow) , he is in reality based more upon his creator, Mike Grell, a former member of the Air Force. Grell is caricatured in Warlord's first appearance, 1st Issue Special #8 and is clearly sporting the signature shaggy goatee.
Warlord (Travis Morgan) has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
