Beekeeper

Few corners of comics feel as richly inhabited as Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson's Astro City, and Beekeeper is one of the intriguing figures to emerge from that world in its Modern Age DC run, debuting in 2016. With only a handful of catalog appearances, this is a character who makes an impression in a short amount of space, sharing the page with the likes of Steeljack, Carl Donewicz, and the enigmatic Ismiri Dvi-Zaralkh — a fascinating ensemble that signals just how layered Astro City's storytelling can be. For collectors who love discovering the quieter, stranger corners of a beloved series, Beekeeper is exactly the kind of find that rewards a deep dive into the Astro City Metrobook collections.
