Quarrel

Quarrel is a costumed legacy hero of Astro City, carrying on a crime-fighting identity passed down through her family. She operates in Astro City's bustling superhero community, relying on skill and determination rather than superhuman powers.

Quarrel made their debut in the very first issue of Kurt Busiek's Astro City in 1995 — a collector-significant launch that helped define one of comics' most celebrated creator-driven universes. A Copper/Modern Age original, Quarrel has kept remarkable company across three decades, sharing adventures with luminaries like Samaritan, Beautie, and Cleopatra in the richly layered streets of Astro City. Published under DC's banner and appearing across the Astro City line through 2025, this character is a testament to the staying power of Busiek and Brent Anderson's world-building — a universe where even a single debut issue can anchor a legacy worth following.
