arghhhhhh.
ça m'apprendra à pas faire de recherche avant...
pas grave , les nouveaux arrivants seront peut etre intéréssé...

[Fin Fang Foom]

C'est une très bonne série avec des personnages très humains et proches de la réalité. J'avais suivi presque les 10 premiers numéros, mais je ne pensais pas que ça avait duré 80 numéros.
Je crois que c'était à la suite de ZERO HOUR que STARMAN était lancé.

Times Past (6, 11, 18, 28, Annual 1, Secret Files 1; w James Robinson; a various). [From DC Comics: Jack Knight was not the first to be called Starman. There were others: among them were Jack's brother David; a castaway from the stars named Mikaal, Gavyn, the prince of a distant galactic empire, and Jack's father, of course - Ted Knight, the first to carry the weighty mantle of Starman. And before Ted first donned the red and green and patrolled the streets of Opal City, another served as its protector and caretaker of the city's many secrets: a shadowy, shadowy gentleman known only as The Shade. These are their stories. Tales of Times Past.]

Secrets are exposed between Jack and Sadie as their relationship deepens.

Goyer, and featuring the art of Peter Snejbjerg, Steve Yeowell, Wade von Grawbadger, and Keith Champagne. Reprinting STARMAN #47-53, A STARRY KNIGHT features a painted cover by Tony Harris. Starman, accompanied by his comrade Mikaal and a Mother Box-produced hologram of his father, Ted Knight, begins a galaxy-spanning quest with one near-impossible goal: to find the brother of his lady love, Sadie. But an encounter with a mysterious Dark Colossus sends our reluctant hero spiraling through time and space—to share adventures with the Legion of Super-Heroes, to visit the long-dead planet Krypton (where he meets the father of Superman), and to the planet Rann where he battles alien invaders alongside the legendary Adam Strange! With the lives of his friends on the line, STARMAN: A STARRY KNIGHT pits Jack Knight against impossible odds on a journey that he hopes finally will lead him back into the arms of his beloved Sadie.]

Stars My Destination (55-60; w James Robinson & David S. Goyer; a Peter Snejbjerg, Stephen Sadowski, John McCrea, Chris Weston, et al).

Goyer with art by Peter Snejbjerg, Keith Champagne, Stephen Sadowski, Chris Weston, and John McCrea and a cover by Tony Harris, collects STARMAN #55-60! In STARS MY DESTINATION, Jack Knight seeks out the brother of his lady love, Sadie. But Jack and his crew become prisoners of the empire, and must stoke the fires of revolution in order to escape a despot's grasp — with the help of guest-stars such as Omega Men's Tigorr and New God's Fastbak. How do the legacies of all the men who’ve been called Starman tie together? And does this adventure really involve the Star Rovers, Tommy Tomorrow, the Space Ranger, Ultraa the Multi-Alien…and Space Cabby?] Book of the Week 1/2/04

le série s'arréte au numéro 80
il y a un 80 pages spécial, un secret file, 2 annuals
une miniserie shade en 4 n°, un spécial the mist..

[nicolas]

merci beaucoup!!!

[gillesC]

..The shade bien mieux que The Mist... (Gilrfrenzy.. tsss.. )

Perso, je dirais que Starman est l'exemple tellement parfait qu'on-dirait-que-ça-a-été-fait-pour-ça de la série très bien, mais incapable d'être excellente.

[Corbulon]

Elle est excellente au début... Et peu de scénaristes ont la qualité d'écriture de Robinson, vraiment très peu. On peut trouver discutable le milieu de la série, mais même des séries comme Sandman bégaient parfois...

[Virgule]

c'est quand même un bon mainstream, du super heros un peu nouveau et presque plus crédible quelques part...
et une bonne mise au point du nom starman.

et la qualité graphique a suivi tres bien (combien de série on commencer a perdre de l'importance et se sont retrouver avec des atistes bouches trous....)

quelqu'un connait ?
je viens de recupérer la totale (63 n° !) pour 80 €, qu'est ce que ça vaut ?
