Starman #76

Starman #76, titled 'Grand Guignol, Part 6: The Hero's Journey,' was released in 2001 as the penultimate chapter of the acclaimed Starman series written by James Robinson. Published by DC Comics, this era of the title is defined by its deep exploration of legacy, redemption, and the evolving nature of heroism within the superhero genre. The issue continues the climactic battle against the villainous agents of the Mist, serving as a pivotal moment in Jack Knight's personal growth from a reluctant hero into a figure of genuine substance.

The visual identity of this issue is driven by the work of artist Peter Snejbjerg, whose clean, atmospheric lines became a hallmark of the series' later run. Following the departure of original series artist Tony Harris, Snejbjerg was tasked with maintaining the moody, character-centric tone that readers had come to expect. The issue was received warmly by critics and fans alike, largely because it maintained the narrative consistency and emotional weight that Robinson had established throughout the multi-year story arc, successfully steering the sprawling plot toward its long-awaited conclusion.
