I've seen some people make the argument that if they'd named him Tim or Dick or Jason, it wouldn't have had the desired "reveal" effect - fans would have known immediately and casual viewers might not have gotten it at all. So I can see why he made that choice, even if it's kind of disappointing at the same time.
Also OMG Starman. I love those comics so, so very much. I did think the Omnibuses were worth it because they added in a bunch of extra stuff where it belonged chronologically. (In fact, when I got rid of most of my books before moving, those were some of the very few books I kept.)
Oh, did you know there's currently a 12-issue Shade series that Robinson's doing?
