Inhaltsangabe:

Soon to star in her very own live action series, Stargirl by Geoff Johns (Doomsday Clock, Flashpoint, Justice League) collects his earliest work at DC Comics as he introduces the young woman who becomes Stargirl, Courtney Whitmore!

KICKING BUTT AND FIGHTING EVIL--ALL BEFORE CHEERLEADING PRACTICE!

Courtney Whitmore is just your typical teenage girl trying to make it through high school--but she's about to stumble upon a secret that will make her life a lot more complicated! Her new stepfather, Pat Dugan, was once a costumed adventurer called Stripesy--sidekick to the Golden Age hero the Star-Spangled Kid. Finding the Kid's costume, Courtney decides to modify it for herself and become the new Star-Spangled Kid--allowing her to fight crime and annoy her stepdad at the same time!

But Dugan isn't about to let his new daughter put herself in harm's way--at least, not by herself. Using his exceptional mechanical skills, he builds a robotic suit called S.T.R.I.P.E. to make sure he can keep an eye on Courtney as she battles for justice. Now the duo fight side by side--often bickering, but never forgetting to watch each other's backs as they take on aliens, cults, super-villains, and more!

Collects: Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. #0-14, JSA: All Stars #4, and stories from DCU Heroes Secret Files (1999) and DCU Villains Secret Files (1999)
