Mister Toad

Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson introduced Mister Toad into the richly layered world of Astro City in 2010, a Modern Age creation born into one of indie comics' most celebrated and humanistic superhero universes. With a name that crackles with personality, this Image Comics character shares the page with luminaries like The Silver Agent, Quarrel, and Cleopatra — the kind of distinguished company that signals Astro City at its most ambitious. Though his catalog footprint is small, his appearances stretch across fourteen years and some of the line's most collected volumes, making him a genuine curiosity for the dedicated Astro City archivist hunting every corner of Busiek's beloved fictional metropolis.
