The Cosmic Wars (circa 1982)

During the height of the Cosmic Wars, Starfighter was somehow split into two separate individuals. Completely unique bodies, with polar opposite psychological personalities. One was "good' and the other "bad." They bad one was thought to be from another cosmic reality, but that was never fully determined.

Shifting Life Focus

He seems content and fulfilled with how his life is changing as he approaches his senior years. Overall pleased in his memories, even the bitter ones. Yet still, he is ready to embrace the challenges that life has in store for him. Whatever they may be.
