Thugs. Named Burt and Ernie. And an alien with blue skin. Put it all together and you’ve got a hell of a fight on your hands.

Our blue friend is Mikaal Tomas, the late 70s incarnation of DC Comics’ Starman. Call him “The Disco Starman” if you want. With the medallion, the low-neck costume and the awesome, permanently blow-dried hair, who would blame you? But watch out, ’cause he does indeed now that karate stuff.

Aw, yeah. “THOM!” That’s how you say “beatdown” in Disco Spaceman Talk. Bahlactus speaks it fluently.
