While these all have very different stories, the high quality of characterization and world building are what I admire in all of them. Astro City is a city inhabited by superheroes, but most of the stories are told from the point of view of the humans whose lives are affected, for better or worse, by living among these powerful beings. Great great stuff, and I'm glad there are many more to read. A young wannabe superhero called Brian Kinney arrives in Astro City and through diligent work attracts the attention of the Confessor, who takes him under his wing. He becomes a crime-fighter with the Confessor and finds that the superhero life is not all roses. The climax of this story made me sad, so that's a decent achievement. This volume of Astro City there are two stories, one about a superhero called the Confessor and his sidekick Altar Boy and another about a man named Mike who remembers a girl. The first story is just so incredibly engaging, especially the relationship between the hero and his sidekick. The second story while incredibly short, is so heart wrenching how could it fail to move anyone. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Brian Kinney has left his rural home, seeking adventure in the big city - Astro City. After working his way into the super-hero scene as a busboy and waiter, Brian attracts the attention of Astro City's vigilante Confessor. Dubbed Alter Boy, Brian becomes the Confessors sidekick. While Astro City suffers under the looming threat of a serial killer on the loose and the city government moves to ban super heroes altogether, Brian questions the actions of his mentor. If that weren't enough, there just may be an alien invasion looming!"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
