Strangeling

Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson introduced Strangeling to the richly layered world of Astro City in 2005, a Modern Age creation woven into one of comics' most celebrated humanist superhero universes. Appearing across the full sweep of the Dark Age saga — Books One through Three — Strangeling keeps remarkable company, sharing pages with the likes of Lafayette O'Hearn, Charles Williams, and the Furst family as Astro City's turbulent, morally complex era unfolds around them. With a presence stretching nearly two decades in the catalog, Strangeling is a testament to the depth Busiek and Anderson brought to every corner of their world — the kind of character that rewards the dedicated reader who wants more than just the headliners.
