'''Starman''' is an uncommon [[enemy]] who first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. He is best described as a bulbous yellow creature with no face, a head that splits in two, and a gem-inset cape. His typical behavior involves walking around casually on the ground and jumping upwards at random times. He will also occasionally fly around horizontally with his arms out in front. This makes him similar to a stereotypical flying superhero.

Starmen are mostly found in areas which involve long vertical passages, as well as appearing during the battles with [[Kracko]] and [[Mecha-Kracko]]. When [[Kirby]] [[inhale]]s a Starman, he receives the [[Hi-Jump]] [[Copy Ability]], and is the only source in the series for said ability outside of a [[Mix]] or [[Copy Essence]]. Unlike many other enemies, Starmen do not seem to react differently when Kirby is nearby.

Starman can be possessed by [[Ghost]] Kirby. Unlike most other enemies, Starman gains an altered move-set when possessed. He gains the ability to fly in any direction, but he flies much faster when going upward, and is able to break through objects like [[Star Block]]s while doing so. He cannot harm enemies without also taking [[damage]], however.
