Kid Corsair

Born into the richly imagined world of Astro City, Kid Corsair made their debut in 2018's Astro City #50 — a landmark issue in Kurt Busiek and Brent E. Anderson's celebrated Modern Age tapestry of superhero storytelling. This is a character who keeps genuinely exciting company, sharing pages with the likes of Jack-in-the-Box and Teen Genie in a universe overflowing with invention and heart. Still a relatively fresh face with a small but meaningful footprint across Astro City and its collected editions, Kid Corsair is exactly the kind of discovery that rewards readers who love digging into Busiek's layered, humanistic corner of the DC cosmos.
