Behold! The strongest, boldest, bat$#!%iest superhero who ever lived is returning! Stardust the Super Wizard, the madcap Golden Age character created by Fletcher Hanks, has fascinated generations of comics readers since he first appeared in Fantastic Comics #1 in 1939. Now, an all-star team of artists and writers are bringing Stardust back in this epic anthology!
The anthology also will feature the first-ever comics story by Ian Hanks, the grandson of Fletcher Hanks, and an accomplished fine artist.
This project has been a labor of love from creators who genuinely have a soft spot in their heart for Stardust. Originally debuting in 1939, Stardust appeared in just 16 issues, which were later re-printed by Fantgraphics. But that was not enough for Jensen, who took it upon himself to rally the troops and put more Stardust out into the world!
"This is an opportunity for some of comics finest to get really, really, really freaking weird. The meta-story that's going to run through the book is about an alien called The Editor who absorbs Earth's stories from people's brains and then judges them based on whether they're rational enough. And then of course Stardust mutilates him! I just hope that people will have even half as much fun reading it as we are making it!” - Van Jensen
