MPH

Thirty years of Astro City history have a way of leaving their mark, and MPH is one of those figures who's been woven into that richly textured world since the very beginning — debuting in the landmark first issue of Kurt Busiek and Brent Anderson's beloved series back in 1995. That premiere issue is itself a collector's key, making MPH part of the foundation on which one of comics' most celebrated superhero universes was built. Across three decades and multiple Astro City volumes, this character has shared the page with heavyweights like Samaritan, Cleopatra, and N-Forcer, running in genuinely distinguished company. If you're diving into DC's Astro City saga, MPH is one of those names that reminds you just how deep and rewarding this corner of comics truly is.
