Summary

Shane, Chris, Ian and Murd finally make good on a promise made many months ago, and return to the Book of the Month format for a book that means a lot to each of them. That's right, the first twelve issues of James Robinson's Starman are here! The Geeks go over their histories with the book and with Jack Knight and other versions of the titular character, then give their thoughts on issues 0 through 11 of the series, including the introductions (and for some characters reintroductions) of The Shade, The Mist, The O'Dare Family, Ragdoll, Opal City, and so much more. Grab your leather jacket, anti-flare googles, some patches and a staff, and dive right in with us! (2:10:42)
