Dec 16, 2013Unlike the majority of comics out there, Astro City manages to tell stories about characters who are interesting, intelligent, and act and behave like real people. These are stories that matter, that challenge the reader and make you care about what happens next. Read Full Review

Dec 13, 2013I would suggest to pick this up to see a cast of characters that resemble a certain trinity of heroes finally in a story together and to learn more about Winged Victory. It's a good start to get into the series without having any idea what's going on while at the same time pleases long time fans of the series to finally see some of their favourite characters finally teaming up.

Worth a look. Read Full Review
