Frank Pappas

Frank Pappas arrived on the DC scene in 1992, stepping onto the page in the very first issue of The Darkstars — a series that carved out its own corner of the DC cosmos during the early Modern Age. Created by Michael Jan Friedman, Frank is a supporting presence woven into the fabric of that series, sharing adventures alongside characters like Mo Douglas, Ferrin Colos, and Carla White across its mid-nineties run. With seven catalog appearances concentrated in The Darkstars, he's a figure of genuine niche appeal — the kind of character who rewards readers who dig deep into that era's expansive universe-building. If you're tracing the full story of The Darkstars, Frank Pappas is one of the threads worth following.
