New superhero Starlex aims to light up comics

Starlex comic cover 1.jpgA STAR is born. Tree Frog Comics has launched the new hero Starlex.

Before gaining her stellar superhuman abilities, Alexis Starling was a photography and art student at Los Angeles University.

One evening she was up near the Hollywood sign taking some pictures for her portfolio when she noticed a shooting star.

She snapped away as the star came closer and "the star fell faster and faster, she gazed up at it frozen, she could not move.

"Faster and faster the star fell, closer and closer until... silence. For that split second there was nothing. Time stood still. As the star fused with her body they became one. She fell to the ground, her body sparkling like the night sky above..."

Alexis absorbed the power of the star and became Starlex.

The first issue of the 32-page colour comic - by writer/creator Dan Barnes, artist Dody Eka, letterer/colorist Nik Poliwko and cover artist Melike Acar - is available at independent comics site Indyplanet. You can also find Tree Frog Comics on Facebook.
