So, a boring question to me is “what would it be like if there were actually superheroes in the REAL world.” That question just doesn’t interest me, and thankfully that’s not the question that Astro City asks. But it’s a complex, fully realized world that’s bursting with great stories and great ideas. That’s not to say that bad or dark things don’t happen in Astro City. Astro City was sort of a response to the grim and gritty comics of the 80’s and their less good, more cynical successors. When I was first really getting into comics as an adult, Astro City was one of the first comics I read, and it was a great entree to superhero comics and comics generally. 1 TP, each by Kurt Busiek, Brent Anderson, and Alex Ross, published by Image ComicsĪstro City is a really great, special series and I’m thrilled it’s back.
