Character News

June 25/09

Be sure to pick up X-Factor #45, out this week. This is an issue you guys do not want to miss; any fan of this pairing should get their hands on it!
Also remember that feedback and sales will help Shatterstar's chances of staying on board with the rest of the X-Factor cast post issue #50. Marvel is asking for fan letters to be sent in regards to this week's issue. This is a great way to get your voices and opinions heard about Ric and Shatty. Just mail OFFICEX @ MARVEL . COM. Easy peasy. Now get your butts in gear and go do it. ♥

Looks like Shatty is sticking around the book until at least X-Factor #50. Interviews with Peter David regarding upcoming issues of X-Factor can be found here and here.

In order to leave Mr. David your feedback and support, you can reach him online via one of two ways (publicly). You can go to his blog here or leave him a comment on the X-Factor threads at the CBR forums - after the releases of each new issue. It's come to our attention that he checks and reads these two places for feedback, so if you'd like to show your support to keep Shatterstar in the book, go there and comment! The more reader interest he gets, the more likely his stay will be permanent. PLEASE keep in mind this is NOT encouragement to harrass Mr. David. We ask that you only show support for 'Star and keeping Ric and 'Star together in the books. Every little comment counts, guys!

Shatterstar has returned. He can be seen in X-Factor #43 with Rictor, out this week. In all likelihood he'll be appearing in next month's #45 as well, so keep your eyes peeled for that, ladies and germs.

About This Site

This webpage was designed and created for fan purposes. Not only is it homage to the pairing of Julio Richter and Shatterstar, but this is also space to honor and admire them as individual characters as well. So fear not; if you are not a fan of the pairing, you may still find something useful here!

Because these two are our all time favorite Marvel characters, we hope to eventually provide the largest information source dedicated to them on the net. This began because we found that a lot of sites provided very confusing and/or incomplete knowledge on the characters, and we’re aiming to fix that.
Each page on this site is always under construction. We will add to our bios, image gallery, quotes, and fan archives whenever needed. We also aim to provide any news and rumors about either Rictor or Shatterstar, and the books they are/will be appearing in.
That being said, if you have anything you wish to submit, questions, concerns, hate mail, threats (no spam though, please) by all means feel free to contact us. We’re always looking to add and improve, and even if we do come off as a bit insane, we’re not mean and we’re open to any and all suggestions.
Also, if you have a similar site, an X-related fan site, or anything else related to Ric, Star, or X-Force, let us know! We’d be happy to link you, and would love to be linked in return.
