“Pushing It”

In "Pushing It," Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson deliver a poignant character study as Quarrel confronts the limits of her body and legacy, reflecting on her arrival in Astro City, her rise as a hero, and the intense, driving force of her relationship with Crackerjack—whose relentless push for her recovery reshaped her path. Alex Ross’s striking cover captures the weight of that journey, while the story’s grounded, emotional core is brought to life by Anderson’s expressive art and Sinclair’s subtle colors.
