Starman

Just finished reading the entire run of the late 90’s series by James Robinson et al and what can I say? Its pure genius, one of the best comic books I’ve ever read and I don’t say things like that often. Even though the series is a good 10 years old its still better then about 9/10ths of the stuff DC Comics is currently churning out. The characterisations were spot on, the plot twists superb. I love the way Robinson worked in the old heroes (Golden/Silver age) with the new, much in the way Geoff Johns does currently. The ‘Stars my Destination’ arc and the brilliant ‘Grand Guignol’ arc will put most writers who aim for the epic to shame….and Opal City…what a place!
