Confessor

Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson introduced Confessor to the richly layered world of Astro City in 2017, a Modern Age arrival into one of DC's most beloved creator-driven universes. With only a handful of catalog appearances, this is a character whose presence feels carefully placed rather than scattered — sharing pages with luminaries like Winged Victory, Jack-in-the-Box, and Cleopatra, the storied heroes who populate Astro City's vibrant, humanist tapestry. Astro City has always rewarded patient readers who pay attention to every corner of its world, and Confessor is exactly the kind of figure that makes digging into those Metrobook collections so rewarding.
