The Starman Suit is a protective suit used by Sylvester Pemberton, and later the Ultra-Humanite while impersonating Pemberton as the crime-fighting hero, Starman. The suit disguises Sylvester's identity, making it harder for his enemies to distinguish between "Starman" and "Sylvester".
Starman's first suit was primarily during his time with the Justice Society of America. He wore the suit until his believed death in the Battle of Los Angeles, and was usually seen in conjunction with his signature weapon, the Cosmic Staff. The suit was taken by Pat Dugan who kept it safe, until his stepdaughter Courtney Whitmore found the suit and altered it so she could fight at Stargirl. Pat later made "Starman" a new suit.

History[]
Starman's first suit was made in the either the nineties or 2000s, during his time with the Justice Society of America, after he retired his childhood alias of Star Spangled Kid. Sylvester wore the suit in every major battle as Starman, until his believed death in the Battle of Los Angeles.[1] The suit was taken by Pat Dugan who kept it safe, until his stepdaughter Courtney Whitmore found the suit and altered it so she could fight at Starman's successor, Stargirl.[2]
When Ultra-Humanitie put his mind inside of Sylvester's body, "Sylvester" revealed himself as alive to the Whitmore-Dugan's,[3] he became a mentor of sorts to Courtney, showing her tricks with the staff.[4] Meanwhile, Pat tried to encourage Sylvester to become a better Starman and find balance between the two identities. Sylvester confided that he didn't even have a super suit, something that at least be a start in his journey to become a better Starman. Pat sympathized and decided to help Sylvester. He sewed him a new suit that evening.[5]
After Sylvester's ambush at Cornhusker Estate Trailer Park, he began to doubt himself and his role as Starman, wondering if he should just give up the mantle and move on like his former comrades. Pat decided to give him the newly created suit, encouraging him to keep fighting. If Pat's not ready to retire yet, neither is Sylvester. That night, Sylvester suited up for the first time to join Yolanda and Rick on a recon mission.[6]
