Forms
Ted Knight invented the Cosmic Rod and used it to fight crime as the first Starman. It was a small handheld rod. A prototype from the next starman cosmic rod was dubbed Gravity rod.
Jack Knight uses the Cosmic Rod throughout his career as Starman. The rod is a long staff. When he retires from superheroing he gives the rod to Courtney Whitmore, the Star-Spangled Kid, who changes her name to Stargirl to respect the legacy of Starman.
Farris Knight, the DC One Million Starman and descendant of Ted Knight and Mist, used a small handheld device called the Quarvat.
