Marella Cowper

Stepping out of the pages of Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson's beloved Astro City in 2013, Marella Cowper is a Modern Age creation rooted in one of comics' most celebrated humanist superhero universes. She inhabits a world where extraordinary figures like Cleopatra and Beautie share the stage, and Astro City's signature gift has always been finding the deeply personal stories woven through that grandeur. With appearances collected in the Astro City Metrobook, she's a quiet but genuine piece of a DC imprint that consistently rewarded readers who looked beyond the cape and into the heart of the story.
