Starlord

A sleek Modern Age arrival from 1996, this Marvel character stepped onto the page courtesy of writer Timothy Zahn and artist Dan Lawlis — a creative pairing that gives Starlord a genuinely distinctive origin story. Appearing across both Starlord and Star-Lord: Guardian of the Galaxy, this cosmic adventurer has a footprint spanning nearly two decades of Marvel history. With a modest but dedicated catalog presence, Starlord represents an intriguing corner of Marvel's star-spanning universe, well worth seeking out for collectors who love digging into the deeper cuts of cosmic comics.
