The Knights
The Mists
The O'Dares
The O'Dares are the children of the original Starman's policeman ally, Billy "Red" O'Dare (who only appears briefly in the series and soon died due to liver problems caused by drinking). Each of them has inherited their father's red hair, and have joined the police force to carry on the family tradition and to protect Opal City. In the fulfillment of this commitment they come to the attention of the new Starman.
The two female members of the O'Dare family, Faith and Hope, are presumably joined by Charity following her engagement to Mason.
''Starman Annual'' #1 indicates the O'Dare family survives into the far future as the "Dares"; noted for law enforcement on a far-off planet ruled by the beloved
Shade.
