An animal super-villain and member of the Red Lantern Corps.
Description[]
Dex-Starr has the appearance of a normal long-tailed cat with yellow eyes except that its fur is blue with black stripes. It wears a costume that has red for the body and black for the limbs. Despite an inability to speak but still able to make feline sounds, Dex-Starr is highly intelligent and can carry out difficult missions which can involve working with technology. Atrocitus considers it to be his most loyal subordinate.
Being a member of the Red Lantern Corps, Dex-Starr wears a 'Power Ring' on its tail which it uses to project red 'hard light' constructs like hands, hammers, bubbles, a boot, a boxing glove or a subway train. However, this cat will sometimes just shoot red fur balls from its mouth to strike at an opponent. Like any Red Lantern, it can fly and is often surrounded by a protective red 'aura', and, probably because of its small size, it is often employed on covert missions. Dex-Starr is tough enough to hold its own in a fight with Krypto and Streaky, but an electric shock from a Bat-bomb will bring it to a halt and it can be 'de-powered' by stealing its ring while it is distracted.
