Starman: Because fins and goggles are cool!

I've found Starman to be one of those super-hero comics that people who normally loathe super-hero comics rather like. It's only partly about a guy getting caught up in the bizarre legacy of his fin-wearing father. It's about families. It's about growing into and out of roles. It's a valentine to the past without being sappy and rose-tinted.

It's just a cool story. Trust me. [Cool]

This is what came to my mind - I had never heard of the superhero.

Again, no connection to the movie. [Big Grin]

Though one of the DC Comics Starman characters is used to deliberately invoke Ziggy Stardust.
