Star is a central character in Freak Force, the Image Comics series created by Erik Larsen that debuted in 1993 as part of his wider Savage Dragon universe. Formerly a patriotic superhero with a classic, idealistic outlook, Star—real name Art Rosenbaum—becomes disillusioned with traditional superheroics and ultimately helps form Freak Force, a team focused less on flashy heroics and more on tackling social problems, corruption, and street-level crime. As the team’s leader, Star is portrayed as earnest, stubborn, and morally driven, often clashing with both authorities and his own teammates over what “real” justice should look like. His character reflects Freak Force’s grittier, socially conscious tone, making him a symbol of Image Comics’ early 1990s push toward more mature and unconventional superhero storytelling.
