In "The Nearness of You," Kurt Busiek and Len Kaminski launch the groundbreaking Astro City with a poignant tale of memory and loss, as Michael Tenicek is haunted by dreams of a woman named Miranda from a life that might never have been. Brent E. Anderson’s evocative art, with inks by Will Blyberg and colors by Alex Sinclair, brings a haunting emotional depth to the story, while Alex Ross’s striking cover captures the melancholy beauty of the moment.
