Starman Omnibus Vol. 4
In its fourth volume, the deluxe reprinting of one of the 1990s’ best superhero comics showcases the middle of Starman’s seven-year run. Second-generation hero Jack Knight has grown more comfortable with his father’s legacy, so Robinson shifts the focus a bit to bring in other characters from the DC universe, such as Captain Marvel and the Demon, and to portray other superheroes who adopted the Starman name over the decades. Even those who have the earlier paperback Starman reprints will want this volume, for it includes several previously uncollected stories, among them a two-issue collaboration with Batman and Hellboy, gorgeously illustrated by the latter’s creator, Mike Mignola. --Gordon Flagg
