BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON
The title had the word Starman in it, and the credits had the name James Robinson in it, so there you have it - a reason for me to read this book.
It's a quest for the fountain of youth, sadly no matter how much Robinson tried to develop personalities with Starman & Congorilla, I just couldn't muster the energy to care about either of them. It was only guest appearances by Animal Man & Rex the Wonder Dog that made this comic bearable for me. If not for that nostalgia this comic is a waste of your time and money. Thank god it's only a one shot with little to no chance of ever spawning a second issue.
