Brooklyn

Bursting onto the Bronze Age scene in 1983's Captain Paragon #1 — a key issue in the collector world — Brooklyn is one of AC Comics' scrappy, distinctive creations, brought to life by Mark Heike and Phil White. Over the course of the 1983–1990 run, this character carved out a niche across titles like Space Ark, Bolt and Starforce Six, and Captain Paragon, sharing pages with a colorful cast that includes Captain Stone, Boltz, Barker, Kitty, and Slinx. Six catalog appearances may sound modest, but for fans of AC's underdog charm and Bronze Age indie spirit, Brooklyn is exactly the kind of hidden gem that makes deep-dive collecting so rewarding.
