the armor appeared to be Pat's size. Pat Dugan appears in Stargirl, portrayed by Luke Wilson. This version is largely based on his appearance in the Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. comic, being a former member of the Seven Soldiers of Victory and Justice Society of America (JSA) as well as the sidekick of Sylvester Pemberton / Starman. When his stepdaughter Courtney decides to become Stargirl, Dugan assists her in a mechanized battle suit he built years earlier, but never used until then. Despite his reluctance to become a superhero again, Courtney anoints him as her partner and changes his original codename, "Stripesy", to S.T.R.I.P.E. based on an acronym she coined for his armor. When the family moves to Blue Valley, he opens and runs a garage called the Pit Stop. Initially disliked by Courtney owing to her hoping that her birth father Sam Kurtis would return to her life, Dugan eventually wins her over after she learns of his past, devotion to his family, and brilliance in mechanical engineering; becoming a surrogate father figure and reluctant mentor to her and later her iteration of the JSA. While S.T.R.I.P.E. is primarily portrayed by CGI, Legacy Effects created a practical S.T.R.I.P.E. to be used during filming. Ahead of the series premiere, S.T.R.I.P.E. appeared in the Arrowverse crossover Crisis on Infinite Earths, which used archive footage from the Stargirl episode "The Justice Society". Film An alternate universe version of Pat Dugan appears in Justice League: Gods and Monsters, voiced by Dan Gilvezan. This version is a scientist and member of Lex Luthor's "Project Fair Play", a weapons program contingency meant to destroy their universe's Justice League if necessary. After three of their number are killed, Dugan and the remaining scientists attempt to regroup, but are killed by the Metal Men. Miscellaneous S.T.R.I.P.E. appears in the Justice League Unlimited tie-in comic book.
