The Star Brand
Ken is a car mechanic from Pittsburgh who receives the Star Brand from the mysterious Old Man he meets in the woods while dirt-biking. Ken tries to use his powers to help others, but usually finds his efforts thwarted by the complexities of the real world, his own personal failings and his unwillingness to publicly reveal himself. At first, he was given a costume by the Old Man based upon his dirt-biking suit, which was allegedly as invulnerable as he. However, he rarely had the chance to change into it during a crisis and eventually, its invulnerability was exposed as an illusion.
