Knøckwürst

Knøckwürst burst onto the scene in 2014's Astro City #14, a creation of the celebrated team of Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson — the same visionary duo behind one of DC's most beloved and humanistic superhero universes. Part of the rich, textured Modern Age tapestry of Astro City, this character shares the page with the likes of Jack-in-the-Box and a colorful cast including Vivi Viktor and Ellie Jimson, the kind of eclectic company that signals a world brimming with imagination. With appearances collected in the Astro City Metrobook, Knøckwürst may be a rare find in the catalog, but in Busiek and Anderson's hands, even a brief presence carries real weight and wit.
