The very short version:She was a Tamaran Princess.Her name is Koriand'r.She was the second of three children.Her older sister Komand'r could not Fly and therefor was deemed not worthy to become Queen.
Komand'r was very jealous of her younger sister and angry with her Father.Both sisters were sent to train with the Warlords of Okaara to become strong warriors.Because of her increasing jealousy Kormand'r ran off allying herself with the Citadel.Betraying her Planet and giving the Citadel vital information to successfully invade her homeworld.

To save his Daughter The King turned Koriand'r over to the Citadel to ensure peace.She endured 6 years of torture until she and her sister were both released for experimentation by the Psions.
Both sisters escaped the Psions.Koriand'r finding her way to earth with the help of the Teen Titans.She chose to remain with the Team taking the name Starfire.She learned to speak English through one passionate kiss with Robin.Her Sister Komand'r was never heard from again.

After her Planet Tamaran along with her parents and most of her people were destroyed by the Sun Eater.Starfire recognized Earth as her true home.She made her residence on the Amazonian Island of Themyscira traveling to Titans Tower in San Francisco whenever Needed.

Just realized I have the First Edition and it was printed in Slovakia

All of these images of the lovely Koriand'r are making want to pull out my--------Starfire mini-series they did back in the day about a year, I think, after the Teen Titans book was published! George Perez and Starfire---a match made in heaven if you ask me!!!! Byrne did a mighty fine Starfire, too!
 
Re: Wonder Woman for late 2012

Are you thinking of the "Tales of the Teen Titans" mini-series where each issue focused on a different character (Starfire, Cyborg, Changeling, etc.)?

Yep. That would be the one. Even though I was still a "youngster" (nineteen, I think) at the time, I still had the sense to buy three of everything TT related, hoping that it would go up in value, so I have one copy that I keep out just for reading. It's a little dog-eared and faded at this point, but what good's a comic if you don't read it...?
 
Re: Wonder Woman for late 2012

Ed Benes can do no wrong. I propose a whole DC line of statues based on Ed's art. But, here's the catch, all the characters are female. No dudes. I'd subscribe to that.

I've been wanting an Ed Benes line of statues for awhile now! :D

::laffs:: But then what would there be for the female members of our studio audience, piccolo? If yer gonna have cheesecake, ya gotta have beefcake. It's just the ying and yang of the world!
 
Re: Wonder Woman for late 2012

Ed Benes draws a mean belly/hip/thigh/butt circuit, but my favorite Starfire art has assets I've never seen in a Benes pencil.

Ahhhhhhhhh----the good old days!!!! As I said earlier, Perez is to Starfire what Byrne was to Phoenix---the Master!!! His Starfire conveyed both sexualness and innocence at the same time!
