Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel. -- Psalm 69:6 |

IDW Publishing's Starstruck comics have experienced an unusual 20-year journey. It began as an off-Broadway play in 1980 written and starring Elaine May. It then birthed a spin-off comic book series that was serialized in Heavy Metal in 1982, published as one of Marvel's first graphic novels (number 13, to be exact) in 1984, and then expanded and printed in black and white by Dark Horse in 1990.
Since 1990, it's been nearly impossible to find, but no more: IDW Publishing is remastering and rereleasing this epic as a 13-issue series, with the artwork expanded again by original artist Michael Kaluta and repainted by the fabulous Lee Moyer. We recently had the chance to sit down with Moyer and get a history lesson on Starstruck, as well as an inside look at the remastered version of the comic:
Media Release -- San Diego, CA (May 1, 2009) – IDW is proud to announce the return of the science fiction classic, Starstruck, to comics. Debuting in August, the 13-issue series will showcase the fine writing of Elaine Lee and the remarkable art of Michael Kaluta. Scanned from the original art to ensure the highest quality, the entire series is being re-colored by fantasy artist, Lee Moyer, whose painted work has appeared on the covers of books by Iain Banks, H.P. Lovecraft and Marion Zimmer Bradley.
