Whatever happened to Dex-starr?

Andrew NDB · 12-12-2018, 10:08 PM

Is he still around? What about the status of the other Red Lanterns?

Mister Ed · 12-12-2018, 10:16 PM

I honestly can't remember what was going on with the Red Lanterns last time we saw them. And you know what? I'm OK with that.

(Though I do seem to remember Baz and Cruz going up against them at some point. Was that the last we saw of them? If so, then I guess I DO remember, at least vaguely, the last time we saw them.)

He was supposed to be killed in the battle where Atrocitus was defeated, iirc. He's appeared in some EU stuff.

I think he got snatched by a fisher cat.

Geoff never did get to do that Dex-starr and Krypto story, did he?

Ahhh yes. A Valentine's Day special I think? I always wanted to read that.

^Nope. Looks like he'll be in Jimmy Olsen.

Big Daddy Dave Skywalker · 08-07-2019, 10:00 PM

I hope we never see any of those characters again.

Andrew NDB · 08-07-2019, 10:17 PM

Did they ever explain how Dex-starr was a sentient cat to begin with?

His origin is really just house cat with a red ring, so whatever abilities he's granted should be exclusive to the ring. He's smarter than the average cat, but he doesn't philosophize or anything.

His last appearance was in Superman: Leviathan Strikes. Jimmy Olsen picks him up in a hotel in Gorilla City. They never explain how he got there in the first place.

Jimmy Olsen's own book launched three weeks ago, and Dex-Starr has yet to appear there. But I guess that's where to expect him.

Space Cop · 08-08-2019, 01:04 PM

^Yeah, that was my whole basis for saying that. He leaves with him in that short story and then the preview panels for Olsen seemed to include him carrying the cat.

I was really surprised he didn't show up at all in #1.
