Starhaven

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Starhaven is a fictitious planet in the DC Universe's future, near the core of the Milky Way galaxy. It was settled by Native Americans in the 23rd Century, and they have maintained their culture through the time of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th and 31st Centuries.

The people of Starhaven have experimented with genetic manipulation, adding abilities to themselves such as flight with feathered wings and the ability to survive in airless space.

Legionnaire Dawnstar, who has additional tracking and space-warp-flight abilities, is from Starhaven.

The planet was depicted most visibly in Legion of Super-Heroes v2 #305 (November 1983) and #311 (May 1984). These stories show the beginning and end of Dawnstar's ritual "grand tour of the galaxy," and also portray her parents and elements of their religion.
