Numbat

A relatively fresh face in the rich tapestry of Kurt Busiek's beloved Astro City, Numbat made their debut in 2015 — a Modern Age creation brought to life by Busiek alongside artist Gary Chaloner. Published under DC, this character moves through some genuinely stellar company, sharing pages with the likes of Cleopatra, Hummingbird, Quarrel, and Beautie. With only a handful of catalog appearances so far, Numbat is one of those intriguing corners of the Astro City universe just waiting to be discovered by fans who love digging into a world where every character, no matter how briefly glimpsed, feels like they have a whole story worth telling.
