Astro City: The Dark Age #1

Beginning the longest, most earth-shaking, most-requested ASTRO CITY epic ever! In the early '70s, in the wake of a global catastrophe, two brothers deal with family secrets and social upheaval. Their story involves heroes from Jack-in-the-Box to the Blue Knight, newcomers like the Apollo Eleven, and the unsettling events leading to the final fate of the Silver Agent!

THE DARK AGE unfolds in four 3-issue arcs that stretch across Astro City's darkest era. Find out why the '70s were so troubled through the eyes of two men who survived its depths.
