Beachboy

Beachboy made their debut in the pages of Astro City #50 in 2018, born from the celebrated creative partnership of Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson — the same visionary duo who built one of modern comics' most beloved and humanistic superhero universes. A Modern Age arrival in DC's Astro City imprint, this character shares their world with a wonderfully eclectic cast including Jack-in-the-Box, Kid Corsair, and Teen Genie, the kind of colorful company that signals Astro City at its imaginative best. With appearances across the flagship series, its collected Metrobook editions, and the That Was Then... Special, Beachboy may be a rare find in the catalog, but in Astro City, even the briefest spotlight tends to mean a story told with real heart and craft.
