Overstreet: "1st app. Starman by Jack Burnley." "Upon his debut in Adventure Comics #61 (April 1941), no one could predict that Starman would become a long-running — if oft-reconceived — character. As of 2010, there have been at least nine different heroes who have used the name.... Over the years, writers have delighted in finding ways to make the disparate versions fit into a unified mythology." — Paul Levitz, 75 Years of DC Comics: The Art of Modern Mythmaking.
