Yesterday we witnessed Supergirl fighting a gorilla, and I briefly touched upon the villain of the piece--
STARFIRE--who restored my faith in comic books?
Who is Starfire? Long forgotten, she was incredibly evil, while incredibly
fashionable. She would have been a perfect
Austin Powers villain, the crazy woman who changed outfits
EVERY SINGLE SCENE!!
Yes, this is all in
one issue...this woman changes outfits more often than
Cher...and they keep getting
modder and
more villainous!
How
awesome is Starfire?? She has
gun-toting super-models as henchmen!
And her plan, well, is kinda straight outta
Zoolander by way of
Dr. Evil:
(No, I don't know the correct order to read all those word balloons in, either...just think of it as a make your own adventure book!)
And how will Starfire accomplish this plan?
BIO-WARFARE!!
And you know what? The damned plan
works!
Oh, Starfire, you clothing horse, you stealer of bold fashion designs, you eye-patch-wearing commander of an evil army of models...why haven't we seen you post-Crisis?
Why??We conclude with the
greatest caption in the history of comic books:
My God--someone at
DC resurrect Starfire--
NOW!!!From Adventure Comics #405 (1971)
