Notes: 

• This is the first appearance of the Will Peyton "Starman".
• The Starman logo was designed by Steve Vance, who also did the awesome 80's Hawk And Dove Logo.
• There is a two page Robert Greenberger write up on the History Of Starman.
• It's interesting to read Bob Greenberger's two page write up on the history of the DC "Starmen", and refer to the Ist Issue Special Mikaal Tomas "Starman" to be a mere footnote. Of course this was about six or seven years before James Robinson would revitalize that character in the 90's with the Jack Knight Starman series which even lead to Mikaal Tomas joining the Justice League in the 2000's.
• There are a few preliminary costume sketches by Tom Lyle of the Will Peyton costume on the bottom of the first greenberger write up page.
