"The Star Brand!" Story by Jim Shooter. Art by John Romita, Jr. And Al Williamson. It's a world not unlike our own.

Welcome to the New Universe. Life for Kenneth Connell, an extreme sports enthusiast, changed the night he met...The Old Man. After a brief encounter and black-out, Ken awakens with a strange "Brand" on his hand. It's a Brand that will forever change his life. 32 pages, FC. NOTE: This series can best be summed up by the presage that serves as both prologue and epilogue for the series - "There is a weapon in the universe more powerful than all others. No more coveted, feared, loved, or hated thing exists. Only a fool or madman - or the right man - would dare possess the Star Brand!" - Odinson, Lonestar Comics Archivist Cover price $0.75.

Written by JIM SHOOTER, Gerry Conway, and Roy Thomas. Art by JOHN ROMITA JR., Herb Trimpe, and Tony DeZuniga. Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR.
There is one weapon in the galaxy more powerful than all others. Nothing is more coveted or feared, loved or hated. To dare possess it makes you a fool or madman - or, quite possibly, the right man! A mysterious encounter with an old stranger is about to leave Ken Connell as the latest to wield the power of the Star Brand! With this incredible tattoo come staggering abilities: flight, strength, near-invulnerability and the explosive force of an atom bomb. But it also attracts enemies: aliens seeking to claim the Star Brand for their own, nuke-toting terrorists - even other adventurers from this New Universe, like the armored Spitfire! Ken Connell can't even be a good boyfriend - could he possibly have it in him to be a hero?
Softcover, 320 pages, full color.
NOTE: "In 1986, Jim Shooter, John Romita, Jr. and their pals created one of the most highly underrated comic universes in the history of comics - The New Universe." - Odinson, Lone Star Comics Archivist
