Dreadstar #2 Cover by Jim Starlin (1994)

I once asked Jim Starlin (in the mid-nineties) @ SDCC "Whose decision was it to make Ernie Colon the penciller on this book? He is the wrong choice (for a cosmic melodrama)". He looked at me in surprise and said "Mine, I pulled him out of retirement to do this book." Needless to say, I greatly irritated him (putting it mildly). We have met a dozen plus times since. I doubt he remembers me, but he is never friendly nor nice, so maybe his subconscious does. What a dumb question. It had to be his decision. We live and we learn. Regardless, I was a big Dreadstar fan and a Starlin fan in regards to his stories and art. Here is HA's write up:
