| Origin |
| An
average man, Will Payton was struck by a mysterious ray from space while
on a camping trip. Found by another camper he was believed to be
dead and later woke in the morgue. To his astonishment he had gained
superhuman abilities. Encouraged by his sister who designed a
costume with a star on it for him, he reluctantly found
himself playing the role of a hero.
During his first foray he found his
identity when a young boy shouted "Way to go, Starman!" |
