Sun Tzu (in simplified Chinese: 孙子, in traditional Chinese: 孫子, in pinyin: Sūnzǐ) was a general, military strategist, and philosopher from ancient China. The name by which we know him is actually an honorary title meaning "Master Sun". His birth name was Sun Wu and outside his family, he was known by his courtesy name Changqing.

Traditionally, he is considered the author of The Art of War, an influential treatise on military strategy. Sun Tzu has had a significant impact on Chinese and Asian history and culture, both for writing The Art of War and for being a legendary historical figure.

Luke McDonnell (nacido el 19 de julio de 1959) es un artista estadounidense especializado en cómics, especialmente destacado por su calidad narrativa y trazo atmosférico. Inició su carrera a principios de los años 80, haciendo sus primeras incursiones para Marvel en series como Star Trek y Hercules: Prince of Power. Su talento lo llevó a asumir un papel central como dibujante regular de Iron Man desde 1982 hasta 1985, dejando una huella notable en etapas clave del personaje.

A mediados de los 80, McDonnell se trasladó a DC Comics, donde se convirtió en el artista principal de Justice League of America, siendo responsable de ilustrar los últimos episodios de esa era de la Liga. Poco después, su estilo sombrío y realista lo convirtió en el compañero artístico ideal para la reinvención del Suicide Squad, donde ayudó a establecer un tono oscuro, tenso y realista en las narraciones, colaborando de forma destacada en la transición de Barbara Gordon al icónico rol de Oracle.

Actualmente, Luke ha diversificado su trayectoria profesional, incluyendo trabajos de diseño y coloración fuera del cómic tradicional. Su legado perdura como un artista que supo dar profundidad y realismo visual a personajes y tramas cargadas de complejidad moral.
