Fictional character biography edit

Stardust, whose vast knowledge of interplanetary science has made him the most remarkable man that ever lived, devotes his abilities to crime-busting. In later episodes, he changes his focus to racket-busting. In his Golden Age adventures, Stardust patrolled the entire occupied Solar System. The stories, however, focused primarily on his dealings with the planet Earth. Nothing is known of Stardust's past.[citation needed]

Stardust stories followed a tried-and-true formula. The Super Wizard would use his omniscient powers to eavesdrop on criminals plotting a crime. The main villain would describe his grandiose plan (e.g. to commit genocide, lay waste to a city, destroy democracy, etc.). Stardust would pontificate on how evil the villain's plans were but did nothing to prevent them. The villain would then put his plan into action, and many people were either killed or forced to flee. When Stardust arrived on the scene, he would verbally berate the villains and then set into motion a series of increasingly bizarre and violent acts of revenge against the evildoers, often turning their own schemes against them. When the dust cleared, the citizenry would often bemoan the fact that they were unable to thank their hero who had already flown back to his secret headquarters in the stars.[citation needed]

Further adventures edit

Stardust the Super Wizard is in the public domain,[citation needed] and has been appeared in stories published by various creators over the decades, including those who have rendered individual interpretations of the original character, which in some cases provide backstories, explain in plot holes in the original stories, or otherwise develop the character.[citation needed]

Publishers of tabletop role-playing games have created campaigns featuring Stardust the Super Wizard, allowing players to interact, collaborate, and write their own stories.[citation needed]

Powers and abilities edit

Skills edit

Stardust is a master of space and planetary forces, possessing a vast knowledge of interplanetary science. He is also a skilled detective specializing in data collection. Although Stardust has never exhibited any formal combat training, his physical size and strength make him a formidable brawler.[citation needed]

Physicality edit

Physically, Stardust appears as a clean-cut, blond-haired, blue-eyed, white human male of heroic proportions. His height has been estimated anywhere between 7'3" and 9'9" tall. His genealogy has never been revealed. Although he has vested interests in Earth, it is unclear if he is of Earthly origin.[citation needed]

Stardust has exhibited a number of powers that are not attributed to his mastery of space and planetary forces. These powers may be attributed to an alien physiognomy, cybernetic augmentation, genetic modification, tetralogical manipulation, or a combination of these factors. The unexplained powers of Stardust include:

  • Superhuman strength. He has lifted grown men off the ground one-handed and tossed them out a window with little effort.[4]
  • Superhuman speed and accelerated perception. Stardust once delivered a well-timed uppercut while traveling at 300,000 miles per minute (18 million miles an hour).[11]
  • Superhuman endurance. Stardust has never been known to tire—or sleep for that matter.[10]
  • Superhuman durability. Stardust is immune to extreme heat and cold due to exposure to gas emitted from a star.[4]
  • Extrasensory perception. Stardust has been able to sense danger and perceive events over great distances.[10]
  • Artificial lungs. Stardust's respiratory system has been augmented, enabling him to breathe safely under any condition,[4] as he has been depicting hovering in the stratosphere dozens of miles above the Earth's surface without suffering any ill effects.[citation needed]

Star-metal Suit edit

Stardust wears a flexible sky-blue unitard made of star-metal that fits him like a second skin. It is controlled through rays from a distant sun, rendering him invulnerable to chemicals and indestructible by electrical or violent force. Stardust has worn mid-calf boots in both blue and red.[citation needed]

Radiation belt edit

Stardust wears a corset-sized gold radiation belt (aka ray belt) around his midsection. The belt is in a starburst motif and features two rows of red studs. The radiation belt empowers Stardust with a wide array of beams, rays, and arcs. Each ray is represented by its own red stud. Energies from the belt can be used at a local level to affect individual persons or expanded to levels that affect the movement of planetary bodies. The radiation belt does not need to be charged and is not dependent on an outside energy source. It has never overloaded or shown even minor stress despite the great demands that have been made of it. Stardust appears to be limited merely by the breadth of his scientific knowledge and his ability to make good choices.[citation needed]

Energies that Stardust has employed:[74]
Name Effect
Absorbing ray Makes objects disappear entirely.[7]
Agitator ray Stirs up large bodies of water, causing tidal waves and great surges.[16]
Anti-gravity ray[75] Adjusts the planetary pull on an object.[4]
Anti-motion ray Removes all momentum from objects.[11]
Attractor beam Connects Stardust with an object and allow him to direct its physical motion.[10]
Attractor ray Identified a specific object or substance and pulls it toward Stardust.[18]
Boomerang ray Redirects and returns destructive forces back to their points of origin.[4]
Cleaving ray Splits objects in half.[17][76]
Concentrator ray Combines many people into one being.[17]
Counteracting ray Neutralizes or reverses a harmful effect.[17]
Disintegrating ray[77] Causes objects to violently break up into small parts.[14]
Enervating ray[78] Drains people of strength and energy, rendering them helpless.[4][76]
Extinguishing ray Puts out fires on a global scale.[13]
Fusing ray[79] Melts materials or objects with intense heat.[5]
Invisibility ray Renders objects—even entire planets—invisible.[18]
Magnetic ray Physically pulls objects to Stardust.[4]
Metal-repelling ray Forces metal away.[19]
Propelling beam Imparts momentum to large groups of objects.[15]
Radiophonic thought-recording ray Transmits thoughts and suggestions over great distances.[10]
Rarifying beam Calms violent wind.[8]
Reducing ray Shrinks people or objects.[8]
Repelling ray Physically pushes objects and people away.[18]
Retarding ray Reduces the momentum of planet-size objects.[13]
Reverse arc Changes the direction of a tumbling force, such as a tidal wave.[6]
Revolving speed ray Rotates objects at great velocity.[17]
Secret ray Summons the skeletons of innocent murder victims.[4]
Shadow transfer ray Causes one object to mirror the appearance of another.[18]
Spectral ray Makes Stardust invisible or as bright as the sun.[4]
Sun beam Destroys the energy of pyroclastic rocks.[7][76]
Superiority beam Endows Stardust with a commanding presence, stunning people into inaction.[17]
Suspending ray Hangs and maintains objects in midair.[4]
Suspension ray Generates a field to contain a liquid or a gas.[18]
Television ray Allows remote observation.[18]
Thought-recording ray Allows Stardust to telepathically scan a population to reveal criminal intent.[18]
Transforming ray Changes the form and size of an object or person.[13][80]
Transmitting ray Physically lifts and transports identified populations to where Stardust directs them.[5][81]
Transmuting ray Changes gas into hard crystal and back again.[11][76]
Transporting ray Flies large groups of people back to their individual places of origin.[8]

Thought-recording collar edit

Stardust wears a thought-recording collar that reproduces his internal monologue. The recordings are transmitted via thought-recording rays in order to establish telepathic communication with individuals or groups of people. The collar is gold colored and designed in starburst motif. It features a row of red studs similar to the ones found on Stardust's radiation belt.

Tubular spacial edit

The tubular spacial is a luminous forcefield that enables Stardust to travel on accelerated super-solar light waves at tremendous speeds. Stardust has been recorded at speeds of up to 300,000 miles a minute (18 million miles an hour). When pushed to its utmost, the tubular spacial leaves a trail of friction-fire in its wake. It is Stardust's primary mode of interplanetary transportation. He is able to control the speed and direction of the tubular spacial at will. The field is impenetrable and virtually indestructible. The tubular spacial generates a null field that neutralized all forms of energy (kinetic, electrical, magnetic, gamma, gravitational, etc.) and also protects him from the crushing forces of acceleration. The tubular spacial preserves and protects him from the vacuum of space. Stardust can use the field for his own use, extend it to accommodate a passenger,[4] or expand it further to encompass a large group of people.[14]

The tubular spacial can discharge a cloud of acid-proof dust that acts as chaff and a radar countermeasure.[7] Stardust can expand the wake of the tubular spacial and generate luminous skywriting.[6]

Stardust flash edit

Stardust's trademark flash grants him the power of teleportation, allowing near instantaneous transportation between two fixed points. A brilliant flash shaped like a 5-pointed star accompanies each transfer. The flash can range in size from 10 feet wide to thousands of miles in diameter.[82] There does not seem to be a limit to the distance over which an object can be flashed. However, Stardust has never used his flash outside of a planet's gravity well. His flash can teleport individual objects, people, groups, and even entire facilities. The flash can be further calibrated to target specific individuals, as when Stardust transported the entire staff of the F.B.I. from their offices and left all their office furniture behind.[4] Objects can also be safely transferred into occupied space, as when Stardust instantly outfitted the Sixth Columnists with uniforms.[19] Furthermore, the flash recalibrates and redirects the momentum of the object it transfers. This allows an object to match the relative velocity of its destination. Stardust was able to safely flash the President from a moving plane to the stationary White House in Washington D.C.[citation needed]

Stardust's flash is also capable of affecting the momentum and vector of objects in its immediate vicinity. The flash is capable of affecting local objects, but can be expanded to a planetary scale. Stardust uses his flash to launch his tubular spacial. He also uses the flash at the end of his flight to remove momentum—allowing him to calmly walk out of his star. Stardust routinely uses his flash to enter buildings. If he enters a building after a long interplanetary flight, the building will shake just before he appears. Stardust typically announces his arrival before he appears.[citation needed]

Stardust's astral observatory edit

Stardust's headquarters is a crime-detecting laboratory and observation post that is located on what is referred to in early stories as a "private asteroid"[10] and in later stories as his "private star".[13] Stardust's private star has a breathable atmosphere capable of sustaining human and plant life. It features rolling hills, a lush forest, and paved roads. Stardust lives in a massive castle which is a short walk from the observatory.[15] The star has enough mass to sustain a number of small satellites.[14] From his marvelously equipped observatory, Stardust stays apprised of the affairs of the planets. Equipment Stardust has utilized in the Astral Observatory, broken down into categories, include:

Crime detection edit

  • Crime detector. A delicate crime-detecting unit with a needle gauge that vibrates to alert Stardust when a crime has been planned and is about to be executed.[13]
  • Crime-detecting scopes. Various devices that indicate the nature, location, extent, and severity of a crime.[7]

Criminal investigation edit

  • Long-range televisional finder - a scanner equipped with a widescreen monitor and a thought recorder that tunes into the thoughts of criminals to reveal their whereabouts and current plans to Stardust.[13]
  • Panoramic concentration unit reveals the power and influence of an organization and the extent of the crime being perpetrated, allowing Stardust to see the big picture.[14]

Remote observation edit

  • Dictaphonic view plates. A square monitor that allows Stardust to observe and record criminals from afar.[8]
  • Televisional crime-detecting unit. A circular monitor that allows Stardust to remotely observe criminals.[10]
  • Interplanetary television set and thought-process unit. A widescreen monitor and speaker system that allows Stardust to remotely observe and translate the thoughts of criminals. One can assume this comes in handy when the criminals are from another planet and speak a different language.[11]
  • Super-interplanetary television set. A wall-mounted super-widescreen monitor equipped with an adjustable thought recorder that allows Stardust to observe criminals from afar.[14]
  • Crime-detecting ray-phone. A headset with earphones and a view plate that allows Stardust to view criminals from afar.[6]

Mobile Technology edit

  • Anti-cosmic relayer. A device that reduces the radio frequency of remote controlled missiles and redirect them.[12]
  • Concentrator. A handheld wand that draws the heat rays of the Sun and concentrates them into a beam hot enough to melt an entire fortress.[9]
  • Panoramic television unit. A tablet-size device that allows Stardust to remotely view multiple sites. Used to observe the actions of the Sixth Column across the world.[19]
  • Simplified television unit. A handheld television unit, the size and shape of a smart phone, that allows Stardust to observe criminal activity from afar.[16]
  • Super radiophonic sets. Telecommunication devices used by the Sixth Column to contact with Stardust.[19]
  • Universal sound plate. A tablet-sized communication device that establishes an audio tele-conference with the operators of his super radiophonic sets.[19]

Reception edit

In American Comic Book Chronicles: 1940-1944, comics historian Kurt Mitchell writes that the Stardust stories "highlighted Hanks' straitfaced absurdity and distinctively ugly dramatis personae. In style and attitude, Hanks anticipated the underground comics of the 1960s and early '70s".[83]

would describe his grandiose plan e g to commit genocide lay waste to a city destroy democracy etc Stardust would pontificate on how evil the villain s plans were but did nothing to prevent them The villain would then put his plan into action and many people were either killed or forced to flee When Stardust arrived on the scene he would verbally berate the villains and then set into motion a series of increasingly bizarre and violent acts of revenge against the evildoers often turning their own schemes against them When the dust cleared the citizenry would often bemoan the fact that they were unable to thank their hero who had already flown back to his secret headquarters in the stars citation needed Further adventures editStardust the Super Wizard is in the public domain citation

object or person 13 80 Transmitting ray Physically lifts and transports identified populations to where Stardust directs them 5 81 Transmuting ray Changes gas into hard crystal and back again 11 76 Transporting ray Flies large groups of people back to their individual places of origin 8 Thought recording collar edit Stardust wears a thought recording collar that reproduces his internal monologue The recordings are transmitted via thought recording rays in order to establish telepathic communication with individuals or groups of people The collar is gold colored and designed in starburst motif It features a row of red studs similar to the ones found on Stardust s radiation belt Tubular spacial edit The tubular spacial is a luminous forcefield that enables Stardust to travel on accelerated super solar light waves at tremendous speeds Stardust has been recorded at speeds of up to 300 000 miles a minute 18 million miles an hour When pushed to its utmost the tubular spacial leaves a trail of friction fire in its wake It is Stardust s primary mode of interplanetary transportation He is able to control the speed and direction of the tubular spacial at will The field is impenetrable and virtually indestructible The tubular spacial generates a null field that neutralized all forms of energy kinetic electrical magnetic gamma gravitational etc and also protects him from the crushing forces of acceleration The tubular spacial preserves and protects him from the vacuum of space Stardust can use the field for his own use extend it to accommodate a passenger 4 or expand it further to encompass a large group of people 14 The tubular spacial can discharge a cloud of acid proof dust that acts as chaff and a radar countermeasure 7 Stardust can expand the wake of the tubular spacial and generate luminous skywriting 6 Stardust flash edit Stardust s trademark flash grants him the power of teleportation allowing near instantaneous transportation between two fixed points A brilliant flash shaped like a 5 pointed star accompanies each transfer The flash can range in size from 10 feet wide to thousands of miles in diameter 82 There does not seem to be a limit to the distance over which an object can be flashed However Stardust has never used his flash outside of a planet s gravity well His flash can teleport individual objects people groups and even entire facilities The flash can be further calibrated to target specific individuals as when Stardust transported the entire staff of the F B I from their offices and left all their office furniture behind 4 Objects can also be safely transferred into occupied space as when Stardust instantly outfitted the Sixth Columnists with uniforms 19 Furthermore the flash recalibrates and redirects the momentum of the object it transfers This allows an object to match the relative velocity of its destination Stardust was able to safely flash the President from a moving plane to the stationary White House in Washington D C citation needed Stardust s flash is also capable of affecting the momentum and vector of objects in its immediate vicinity The flash is capable of affecting local objects but can be expanded to a planetary scale Stardust uses his flash to launch his tubular spacial He also uses the flash at the end of his flight to remove momentum allowing him to calmly walk out of his star Stardust routinely uses his flash to enter buildings If he enters a building after a long interplanetary flight the building will shake just before he appears Stardust typically announces his arrival before he appears citation needed Stardust s astral observatory edit Stardust s headquarters is a crime detecting laboratory and observation post that is located on what is referred to in early stories as a private asteroid 10 and in later stories as his private star 13 Stardust s private star has a breathable atmosphere capable of sustaining human and plant life It features rolling hills a lush forest and paved roads Stardust lives in a massive castle which is a short walk from the observatory 15 The star has enough mass to sustain a number of small satellites 14 From his marvelously equipped observatory Stardust stays apprised of the affairs of the planets Equipment Stardust has utilized in the Astral Observatory broken down into categories include Crime detection edit Crime detector A delicate crime detecting unit with a needle gauge that vibrates to alert Stardust when a crime has been planned and is about to be executed 13 Crime detecting scopes Various devices that indicate the nature location

detecting unit A circular monitor that allows Stardust to remotely observe criminals 10 Interplanetary television set and thought process unit A widescreen monitor and speaker system that allows

interplanetary television set A wall mounted super widescreen monitor equipped with an adjustable thought recorder that allows Stardust to observe criminals from afar 14 Crime detecting ray phone A headset with earphones and a view plate that allows Stardust to view criminals from afar 6 Mobile Technology edit Anti cosmic relayer A device that reduces the radio frequency of remote controlled

size and shape of a smart phone that allows Stardust to observe criminal activity from afar 16 Super radiophonic sets Telecommunication devices used by the Sixth Column to contact with Stardust 19 Universal sound plate A tablet sized communication device that establishes an audio tele conference with the operators of his super radiophonic sets 19 Reception editIn American Comic Book Chronicles 1940 1944 comics historian Kurt Mitchell writes that the Stardust stories highlighted Hanks straitfaced absurdity and distinctively ugly dramatis personae In style and attitude Hanks anticipated the underground comics of the 1960s and early 70s 83 Further reading editArticles edit Now You ll Pay the Penalty The Wonderfully Weird Work of Fletcher Hanks by Adrianna Gober May 2017 84 10 Reasons Why
