Stardust the Super-Wizard was an immensely powerful entity of generally dubious morality. In some universes, he was merely a very powerful superhero, but he was considered a god in others.

Description

Personality

Dionysus believed that Stardust was “a monster”. Some versions of him were comparatively “nicer”, attempting to act as ordinary superheroes, though even such a Stardust was once shown to be rather high-handed and dismissive of “mortal” affairs which he found “trivial”. (PROSE: A Series of Queer Events)

Powers & abilities

Stardust was extremely powerful. One version of him once temporarily “deleted France”, and later “put it back”. (PROSE: A Series of Queer Events)

Biograph

In the Collapsed Cosmos

In the Collapsed Cosmos, Octobriana remembered having been part of a secret organisation devoted to fighting the Sixth Column, a cult which worshipped Stardust as a “fascist god”. The organisation's superhero team, which included Octobriana, Jenny Everywhere, Trashman and more, managed to destroy Stardust at long last in a climactic battle in 1968, but Trashman was killed during the battle.

In the 925th Universe

See main article: Stardust the Super-Wizard (925th Universe)

The 925th Universe's version of Stardust was still viewed as a hero, although Dynamite Thor thought he was dangerously harmful. He was a member of the super-team known as the Super Besties. (PROSE: Open Sourcing) On one occasion, he accidentally deleted the whole of France while attempting to stop a robbery at the Louvre. He subsequently “put it back” and made a public apology speech, although it was merely a P.R. matter as far as he was concerned, with him feeling no guilt over the event. To attend the ceremony in question, he ended up failing to show up to the 2022 Interdimensional Pride Council, where he was meant to act as the Super Besties' representative after the Man in Grey convinced the Super Besties to sponsor the Interdimensional Pride Parade. A week later, after the Council dropped all their ethically-dubious sponsors, he was seen sulking in “the most heterosexual bar [the Man in Grey] could find” at the same time as the Man in Grey and Professor Wogglebug. (PROSE: A Series of Queer Events) He was eventually “kicked out” of the Squad. (PROSE: Annals of the Jen: One Year of Jenny Over-There: Peter Thor's Day Off)

In Reality Z-25 31-H

In Reality Z-25 31-H, Gwenna said that he was critical in repelling an alien invasion led by Ro-Man, backing up the already formidable peacekeeping fleet of the Space Patrol. (COMIC: Ruthless Ro-Man)

Behind the scenes

Stardust was the main character of a fairly long-running 1940s comic book series, appearing in stories published by Fox Feature Syndicate between 1939 and 1941 (principally, but not only, in Fantastic Comics). Although nominally the hero, being evidently inspired by his contemporary Superman, Stardust has often been reimagined as a villainous figure in more recent uses of the character, as his stories often featured him using his powers to exact egregiously gratuitous “vengeance” on villains. The character is in the public domain, which is what gave rise to these reimaginings.
