FLETCHER HANKS: CREATOR OF STARDUST

Stardust is a superhero who orbits the globe in a spaceship that alerts him whenever a crime's committed on Earth. 

Once alerted he slither-flies down to Earth and grabs the evil-doers.

"Grabs," you say? "What's so bad about being grabbed?" Trust me, it's bad. You never want to be grabbed by this guy.


When he's really mad he's not above separating bad guys from their heads. 


Grievous crimes require grievous penalties. For the crime of eliminating Earth's gravity and killing millions of innocent people... 


...the perpetrator is not only rudely grabbed but forced to spend eternity in a snow filled room in a floating apartment building.


Hanks also created Fantoma, a girl version of Stardust. She polices the world's jungles.


Hanks' jungles are full of criminals, both animal and human.  Here (above) a man studies science and becomes a super villain in order to take revenge on gorillas who tormented him.


For a while he causes all sorts of havoc. 


Ultimately, though,  Fantoma sides with the gorillas and restores order. 


Above, Stardust's romantic side. 

I think there's a Stardust action figure out there. Gee, I wouldn't mind having one.
