Full Comic Story and Review/Recap for Starlight by Mark Millar. Forty years ago, Duke McQueen saved an alien world from destruction. Back on earth, nobody believed his story. Now his kids are grown, his wife has passed on, and life has little to offer. Until the day a strange boy from the world he once saved makes an appearance, coaxing Duke to join him on one last adventure. Can Duke handle the leap from has-been to hero?

By 2012 there has been a distinct change in millers style. Before he tried to he more like Garth Ennis with the higher level of edge, but by 2012 his style shifted to be more like Rob Kirkmans, realistic but very genuine. Jupiter's legacy was the prime recipient of this writing change, which is why I will never stop being pissed that the show got canceled

I was cleaning last night and shoved under my dresser was this series, i totally forgot how good it was. It was under there for probably 5 years, yes i clean often but it was in a odd spot lol. If im not mistaken, he had the movie rights sold for this before the first issue came out, but i may be thinking of Chrononauts which is also one of his best

Have you considered covering any of Jonathan Hickman’s books? He’s gotta be one of the best at world building and his works would be perfect for your long form style since you really need to follow the entire trade/volume start to finish in order to truly appreciate his mastery.

I’m sure you’re familiar but I think East of West or Manhattan Projects would be right up your channels alley. I think it’s cool when you cover various works of a particular writer so we can get a true feel for their style. Regardless of what you cover I’m sure to enjoy it. Keep up the good work my dude.

Watching Danny Malt's videos about Mark Miller's works I was able to put into words something that annoys me the most in Miller's comics, even more than the swear words or edgy situations, or casual racism. It's his portrait of Genius villains/heroes. People that got two Phds by the age of 8, and became self made billionaires by the age of 11 or that have detailed plans tied to specific people and situations setup 10 years in advance. C'mon, there's no suspension of disbelief on the world to deal witn that.

danny, i believe you might be confused on the meaning of the castle with no doors. there are doorways there but the kingfisher is so comfortable thinking that there is no one that can get him he didn't bother putting actual doors on them. also i want to point out how cool Duke McQueen's name is. it's a mash up of two very iconic hollywood actors. John Wayne and Steve McQueen = Duke McQueen. i bet if they said DMcQ's middle name it would be James or Dean. Duke Dean McQueen has a nice ring to it.
