	It's hard to believe that three decades have past since the publication of Astro City first started way back in 1995. Also a bit surprising that the last new Astro City material is now several years old as well. A lot of time has past and it becomes a documentation nightmare for a super-hero mythology that ages in real time, but no new material is available to track their current progress. I would ask that the this website adapt a policy of freezing character status, age, relationship, and pretty much all historical information, confirmed or speculated, and be confined to what has been revealed in the issues at hand. In other words, no interpolating fan speculations/conjectures to how the characters, devices, situations might have evolved to a current point in time landscape.

-Recent changes to the Comixology platform, both the interface and their image library will impact future image contributions for Herocopia.  In the past,  a  great deal of the images that I have edited and enhanced for '''the Herocopia project''' sourced from the high quality images provided by  screen grabs of the Astro City digital comics I acquired from Comixology.  The compromised quality of the "new" Comixology offerings do not meet the standards I deem necessary and proper for this site.
+== Special '''''Documenting an Aging Super-Hero Universe''''' Policy Note ==
-The impact is significant and while I am looking for alternatives, prospects look dim since I will no longer be purchasing products provided by Comixology.   I don't consider hand scanning physical comics as being either cost or time effective, and I still find that method of image sourcing a bit lacking.
+It is easy to assume that a lot of these characters are retired, perhaps dead, or encountered other life changing activities. Please fight the urge to append such extrapolations to this website. At least for now. If and when there is ever a new issue of Astro City, then this policy can be lifted.
