The Silver Adept

The Silver Adept is a mystical superhero operating in Astro City, a city teeming with costumed figures. As her name suggests, she wields magical abilities, navigating the extraordinary demands of her arcane role while managing the very human pressures of everyday life.

A mystical presence in the richly layered world of Astro City, The Silver Adept made her debut in 2014 — Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson's Modern Age masterwork that has always celebrated the full, complicated humanity behind the superhero myth. She moves through a world populated by fascinating figures like Jack-in-the-Box, Hummingbird, and Starbright, the kind of vivid, original company that makes Astro City unlike anywhere else in DC's publishing landscape. With appearances collected in the Astro City Metrobook editions, she's a character worth seeking out for any reader who loves comics that reward careful attention and genuine heart.
