Aster

A three-issue miniseries from the mid-1990s, Aster is an Entity-Parody comic that leans into the era's fascination with cosmic, reality-bending concepts. Published by an independent press, the series is most notably defined by the dynamic, kinetic artwork of Leinil Francis Yu, whose early work here showcases the stylized energy that would later define his career. A brief but distinctive entry in the decade's landscape of creator-owned genre experiments.
