Elliot Mills

Elliot Mills made his entrance in the very first issue of Kurt Busiek's Astro City in 1995 — a landmark debut in one of the Copper/Modern Age's most celebrated creator-owned universes, launched through Image Comics by the visionary team of Kurt Busiek and Brent Anderson. That debut issue itself carries collector-significant key status, making Mills part of a genuinely historic moment in comics. Over nearly three decades, his presence has been woven into the fabric of Astro City across metrobooks, guidebooks, and the core series, where he shares the page with iconic figures like Jack-in-the-Box, Quarrel, The Silver Agent, and Cleopatra. A character tied to one of modern comics' most thoughtful and humanistic superhero worlds, Elliot Mills is a rewarding discovery for any fan digging into what makes Astro City so enduringly special.
