Benjamin Naparski

Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson introduced Benjamin Naparski to the rich tapestry of Astro City in 2013, a Modern Age series that has always excelled at finding the human heart beating inside a superhero world. With a modest but meaningful presence across the book's run into the mid-2020s, he inhabits a corner of Astro City alongside vivid figures like Jack-in-the-Box, The Broken Man, and Hummingbird — exactly the kind of eclectic, imaginative company that makes this DC title so beloved by discerning readers. For collectors who prize character-driven storytelling over spectacle, Astro City is essential, and Benjamin Naparski is one of its quietly intriguing pieces.
