Thursday, September 9, 2010 | Our 138th Year Interviews:February 23, 2004 — Broken Frontier interview with Kurt Busiek July 18, 2003 — Busiek on the Dark Age of Astro City Reviews:Astro City: Local Heroes #2 selected as "Best Single Issue of the Year" My pick for the Best Single Issue of the year harkens back to the Silver Age of comics and one of the more ludicrous and charming ongoing plots from the Superman family of books: Lois Lane's futile quest to prove that Clark Kent and Superman are one and the same. Looking back at those classic Lois Lane stories offers a good deal of perspective into perceptions of gender decades ago. Kurt Busiek examined those dynamics from a much more thoughtful and mature perspective in Astro City: Local Heroes #2, and his collaboration with artist Brent E. Anderson on "Shining Armor" earns my nod in this category.
