 Astro City Astra Special #2 (2009) $3.99 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Kurt Busiek Art by Brent Anderson Covers by Alex Ross While most people celebrate their college graduation by going to dinner, Astra and her boyfriend celebrate hers with a trip into The Gordian Knot, a cosmic caldera teeming with strange life and unusual encounters. It was meant to be a party, but for Astra, who has lived her whole life in the glare of the spotlight dealing with the bizarre and unexpected, it becomes much, much more! Date Available: 10/28/2009 BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS  Astro City’s Astra continues her graduation celebration, this time at the Gordian Knot, as she and her boyfriend quietly discuss what comes next for them. Busiek and Anderson slow the story, shifting gears, merely digging deep into one corner of their playground, rather than tease us with a half a million others. Much better, in my opinion. Also, after last issues predictability, this one offers a shocking revelation…refreshing, no doubt, but, to be honest, not wholly convincing for me, either. Still, it worked well enough, and Astro City is on full tilt again. Love it. I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
