One Perfect Moment: Dex-Starr
Because it was one of my favorite moments in comics last year, from Final Crisis: Rage Of The Red Lanterns...

	I don't care how many times this is posted. Someone could post this every single day and it would STILL BE AWESOME. Kitty! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Classic bait and switch in the Cat-world... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Aside from the blood-plasma-vomit, I thought it was typical cat behavior. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would be unable to count the number of times my cat's lured me in with the cute act only to bite/claw my hand and run off. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not my cat. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Uh, it's a Lantern-level hairball. Yea, it's still typical cat behavior. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Aside from the blood-plasma-vomit, I thought it was typical cat behavior. You never met our demonic hellspawn..Satan rest his soul...Familiar. I swear that cat could hurl on command...specifically if myself or the roommate were not getting out of bed fast enough to feed him. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That last panel will never fail to crack me up. Oh, Ruffles. You're such a spaz. A violent, psychotic, adorable spaz. (Reply to this)

	Oh man Dex-Starr is awesome, I really hope he beomes a recurring character in the DC universe for years to come, because he is just that awesome. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	darklorelei 2009-06-11 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	Even if the rest of Blackest Night ends up being full of fail, it still gave us Dex-Starr, and, really, that's enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, yes, indeed. I think he should have his own series, where he goes around acting like a normalish cat (normal as cats ever get) and then just suddenly going into rage-mode trying to catch mice or bat the fish out of the koi pond or in one of those random fits cats have where they race around the house yowling for no reason at all.

Also, a little old lady should own him and give him his true name (RUFFLES!)

	Fun fact! Artist Shane Davis named Dex-Starr after his cat Dexter! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	kabukiokami 2009-06-11 06:48 pm UTC (link)
	The artist named . . . Well, that certainly explains the intimate knowledge displayed in the kitty teeth/fangs as well as the paws/claws department. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thokstar 2009-06-11 07:04 pm UTC (link)
	There was an interview on Newsarama where it was revealed that Shane Davis put the cat in the background as a joke, but it became an actual Red Lantern when everybody who saw it said "That's awesome!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kamino_neko 2009-06-11 07:20 pm UTC (link)
	And he was BOGGLED by it, but remained sane enough to insist on the name. That's the best part to me...his creator is the only person in the company (or, you know, the world), who didn't realize he was awesome. >_> (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I loved the story of how Dex-Star came to be. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	nymphgalatea 2009-06-11 06:39 pm UTC (link)
	The fact he wears his power ring on his tail never fails to amuse. I love Ruffles the Pukecat. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	mysteryfan 2009-06-11 09:52 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, I was so in love with the awesomeness that I didn't even see that. Thanks. Because, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	queenanthai 2009-06-11 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	Out of curiosity, anyone know which one of us nicknamed him "Ruffles"? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	kamino_neko 2009-06-11 07:21 pm UTC (link)
	IIRC, it was thekamisama. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	As I read this, my cat jumped down from the window and meowed at me. I thought 'Oh God, I know you've never liked me as much as Mom, but please don't kill me, Julia...' O.o (Reply to this)
