"The Star Brand"
Kenneth Connell is an average guy with a less-than-average life. He's a mechanic with two girlfriends, an over-sized ego and now the welder of the most powerful weapon in the universe! The flagship title for the 'New Universe' line from Marvel begins with Connell accepting a star-shaped tattoo from a dying alien. Ken becomes an unlikely hero with less-than-moral ideals. Can Connell keep it together long enough to figure out how to use it without destroying everything in the process?
