Nightstar, who has been fighting Green Lantern, gasps in horror as this happens, screams in agony as she cradles her father's bloodied face, and then flies him off to safety. Batman's Outsiders join in the fight, during which Red Robin (Richard Grayson) is seriously injured by an enemy called 666. The League has built a special prison to hold rebellious superhumans, but the prison is breached and an all-out battle ensues between the prisoners and the Leaguers. Just as Luthor is about to unleash this chaos, Batman and his followers overpower him and his associates-with the notable exception of Ibn, who is later seen arm in arm with Nightstar. īatman's real agenda, however, is to expose Luthor and his schemes to cause more chaos in the world. The moment they meet, Nightstar and Ibn have an undisguised attraction for one another. During a meeting between their groups, Nightstar encounters Ibn Al Xu'ffasch, Batman's son and the heir to the Dark Knight's enemy Ra's al Ghul. Instead, she throws in with Batman, who, through Dick Grayson, is her adopted grandfather, as do many other progeny of League members, including the daughters of Speedy, Aqualad and Flash, and the son of Donna Troy.īatman, who no longer uses the cover of his alter-ego Bruce Wayne, has formed an alliance with Lex Luthor's Mankind Liberation Front in order to counter what they see as the overbearing might of the Justice League. Nightstar is impressed but, unlike Avia, she does not fall in with Superman. Superman appears and makes a powerful recruitment speech for the Justice League. She is next seen in conversation with Avia, daughter of Mister Miracle and Big Barda in an underground bar.

Nightstar is at first very dismissive of this move. Among his recruits is Nightstar's father Dick Grayson, who adopts the identity of Red Robin. Superman, who has been in self-imposed exile, returns to reform the Justice League and restore order. They only pause to learn of a major disaster in the state of Kansas in which a similar battle has led to the deaths of one million people. Nightstar and others cause destruction in the neighbourhood, getting innocents caught in the crossfire. Most of the supervillains of the world have been eliminated so the new generation of heroes "fight simply to fight, their only foes each other". Nightstar's mother Starfire Koriand'r has died from a circulatory illness. Nightstar first appears in Kingdom Come #1 (May 1996) when she is seen in a street battle.
