Astro City tracks superheroes Samaritan, Winged Victory, the Hanged Man and Jack-in-the-Box and their interactions with the people of the eponymous city.
A unique brand of humanistic saga -- part superhero epic, part intimate drama -- in which the (mostly) good-hearted, workaday residents of a mid-sized American city blessed with and cursed by the largest number of superheroes and supervillains in one place on Earth, come into daily contact with the worrisome, the weird and the wondrous.
