Me too!! Absolutely, John Blackstar is standing tall and proud on one of my bookshelves, incidentally he's standing there only inches away from a volume of Byron's poetry and the Collected Works of William Shakespeare. That's actually true.
You see, I have developed this constant blending of the trivial and the sublime...

Anyway, since you just mentioned it, Blackstar was one of those series where I must say the action figures looked a bit better than most of the cartoon.
(I am still looking for a Warlock dragon in mint condition, people! *g*)
Though Overlord's flying fortress was a nice touch, and would have been a great asset to any cartoon boss-villain.
