Bionix was a proposed American comic book title that would have seen the return of the characters of Jaime Sommers and Steve Austin. It was solicited to trade publications for delivery in 1996. The book would have been produced by Maximum Press, Rob Liefeld's TV-licensing imprint of Image Comics. The comic ultimately never made it to press, however — most probably a victim of Liefeld's acrimonious 1996 split with Image. However the publication made it far enough to be advertised in comic book trade publications, and was also solicited by comic book distributors.

However, so little is now remembered of the work that comics expert and artist, Bob Rozakis once came up blank when asked a question about the series in his "It's BobRo The Answer Man!" column for the Silver Bullet Comic Books site: Comic fan, Victor Lambert: What exactly happened to the proposed Bionix miniseries Rob Liefeld was planning to do back in 1996? Was there ever a Bionix mini or was it "vaporware"? My theory is that Universal didn't like his version of Battlestar Galactica so they withdrew the license for Bionix. What's the real story??? Bob Rozakis: I’m not sure I ever heard the “fake” story.
