Where it came from
Starman #5, titled 'Sins of the Father: Part 2,' was published in March 1995 as part of the acclaimed DC Comics series written by James Robinson. The series reimagined the legacy of the Starman mantle, shifting focus from the Golden Age hero Ted Knight to his son, Jack Knight, a reluctant, antique-collecting hero based in Opal City. This issue serves as a pivotal chapter in the series' early development, grounding the cosmic legacy of the character in a gritty, character-driven narrative.
The visual identity of this issue, and the series as a whole, was defined by the evocative, noir-inspired interior art of Tony Harris. Harris aimed for a cinematic aesthetic that distinguished the title from the more traditional superhero comics of the mid-1990s. The art was well-received by critics and readers alike, praised for its moody atmosphere and distinctive character designs that emphasized the emotional weight of Jack Knight's inheritance.
