stro City #2: The Scoop Review
Medium: Comic
Release date: 9/1/1995
Review date: 9/23/2024
Score: 8/10
I was the exact right sucker for this issue - a plotline about superheroes and the importance of sourcing in journalism?
“Astro City,” please!
Much like “Astro City” #1, “The Scoop” is just effortlessly enjoyable while also being delightfully comic book-y. I'm blown away by how the series has already laid down such an impression of a historied, detailed world and city in just the two issues, with no character or concept standing out as not feeling quite right yet. Great stuff.
