Starman: A Starry Knight (Book 7)

Rating:
Summary: Another great volume of James Robinson's Masterpiece STARMAN
Review: What I love about Starman is that you can pick up nearly any of the trade paperbacks and understand the story as you read along, but reading ALL of the trade paperbacks before it (STARRY KNIGHT is the 7th in a continuing series of volumes,) creates such a richer enjoyment of the book.

James Robinsons writing is phenomonal as always; he left nothing to be desired in his intricate, three dimensional storytelling and fleshing out of the dozens of characters. There are comic-books out that DEFINE why comic fans have such an infamous reputation, but this book is the antithesis of that sentiment. It creates deep characters; not cardboard cut-outs like SUPERFRIENDS and television's BATMAN made so famous back in the day.

STARRY KNIGHT shows the first part of Jack's adventure in space as he ventures through the stars in search of Will Payton, a Starman prior to he. Saying anything about the actual plot would ruin so much of the storyline, so I will not. I will only insist that you read it, and strongly recommend buying all the previous 6 trade paperbacks. The issues collected within are 47-53. Try it out and feel free to let me know what you thought of it.
