with lettering by Todd Klein. Lee recalls: "Michael and I were supposed to have done the Galactic Girl Guides for Kevin Eastman's company, Tundra Comics. But when Tundra was bought by Kitchen Sink, the project was cancelled". Kaluta's website mentions that in 1996 he was "(s)till drawing Starstruck, the Expanding Universe for Dark Horse Comics. The first collection is to be published by Marlowe & Co. in the fall of 1996. Marlowe chokes and refuses to publish. Project dead". This implied that there was a chance at a graphic novel collection of the Volume 1 expanded stories, while Kaluta was also working further on completing expanded story art for Volume 2. In 1995, Kaluta contributed art to a story in Elaine Lee's erotic comics collection, Skin Tight Orbit Volume 1, which takes place in the Starstruck universe; the story, "The Next Best Thing..." was initially published in Heavy Metal. Three other stories drawn by Mary Wilshire star a character who looks like Galatia 9 and have references to Starstruck such as the Handi Andy pleasure droid. IDW revival (2009) In 2009, IDW Publishing began to publish Starstruck comic book series. These 13 monthly issues were a remastering of the Dark Horse "Expanded Universe" series: the original graphic novel, the 100 pages of added material, and the first Epic Comics issue. Kaluta now expanded the bulk of the art pages from the square format to the full rectangular format with new art. Painter Lee Moyer did a lush and complex revamping of all the color using contemporary digital technology. Besides the revised version of "Volume 1", the two Galactic Girl Guides stories first printed by Comico would now be reprinted along with several other unpublished GGG stories from that era, inked by Charles Vess and lettered by John Workman. Additionally, there were new pin-ups, and revised entries in the Glossary. Fan artists were given a spotlight in a few issues: CG diagrams of the ship, The Harpy, were provided by Walt Carter; and Kristina Carroll did a painting of art assassin Kettle Black in a scene alluded to in text but never previously shown before. A new color fumetti-story concluded the final issue, using some of Sean Smith's play photos, which included Elaine Lee as Galatia 9 and Susan Norfleet Lee as Brucilla the Muscle. The first issue was released on August 12, 2009 and the series was completed in September
