Kahoutek

Kahoutek burst onto the pages of Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson's Astro City: Dark Age in 2005, a Modern Age creation woven into one of comics' most celebrated explorations of superhero mythology seen through street-level eyes. Appearing across all three Dark Age books, this DC character inhabits the same richly textured Astro City universe as Charles Williams, Royal Williams, and a memorable cast of figures who populate that gritty, morally complex era. With seven catalog appearances concentrated in that landmark miniseries, Kahoutek is a character whose significance is felt in the quality of the company they keep rather than sheer volume — a carefully placed piece in Busiek and Anderson's intricate, humanist tapestry that any serious Astro City collector will want to track down.
