History

Leonid Kovar's father, Konstantin, was an archaeologist, and when the two investigated a spaceship that had crashed into the Yenesi River, the ship exploded. It imbued Leonid with energy, and gave him powers of super strength, speed, flight, and pyrokinesis. Being a Russian patriot who believed in socialism, he offered his services to his country and became the first official Russian superhero, taking the name Starfire. A new member named Starfire was on the Teen Titans at this point, and so Leonid changed his codename to Red Star.

Red Star joined the Teen Titans. After two years, Red Star left the Titans with Pantha and Baby Wildebeest, forming a unique and somewhat dysfunctional family unit. He was frozen solid by Superboy-Prime after witnessing the brutal murder of Pantha and Baby Wildebeest.

Red Star stopped an alien invasion of Russia. In appreciation, the Russian president named him "State Protector." He took one of the defeated aliens' vessels, which were very similar to the ship that gave him his powers, and made it his headquarters, hovering a thousand feet above the Kremlin.


Powers and Abilities

Powers

Alien Energy Mutation: Red Star was empowered by unknown alien energies that have caused chain reactions within his molecular structure, altering his physical abilities and reflexes. Over time, these abilities have changed and he has gone from being an incredibly fast and strong being into one with an array of powers.

  • Superhuman Strength
  • Superhuman Speed
  • Superhuman Endurance
  • Energy Form: Red Star can also morph into a form that is composed of fire-like energy, in which he can form and redirect energy. It seems his powers have the same effect on Kryptonians as his namesake, as he used them against Superboy-Prime during the Sinestro Corps War.
