WarStar with his Astro Spear, Doctor Developer in the 1990s.

This page covers any series set prior to the main action in the 2020s, but short enough not to get its own page.

WarStar: Set in the turbulent 1990s, this story is told from the point of view of WarStar, a would-be conqueror from another dimension. This is a limited series of four issues. Winner of the RACCie Award for "Favorite MiniSeries!"

WarStar #1 - Astrogenesis: WarStar arrives in the ASH Universe in 1992, and immediately finds himself in an unpleasant situation. Not that the situation back home was any more pleasant....
WarStar #2 - Mean Streets: WarStar fails to get into Haven, so he abandons his high-power identity and becomes muscle on the streets of Manhattan, where he faces the legendary Black Opal.
WarStar #3 - Arena: WarStar finally makes into the community of Haven, where he gets embroiled in this society of super-villains.
WarStar #4 - Not In The Stars: It's 1998, a little over a month before everything hits the cosmic fan, and WarStar has a choice to make. Head home, or stay and try to conquer a world rapidly going mad?
