| “ | All my parents ever gave me was a chip on my shoulder. They treated my sister and I like props to show off to their snooty friends. I mean, that's why I love being Starman. I'm not a prop. I serve a purpose. I'm somebody important. Without that... I'm nobody, really. | ” |
John Pemberton was the wealthy father of Sylvester Pemberton and Merry Pemberton, the husband of Gloria Pemberton, the father-in-law of Henry King Sr. and the grandfather of Henry King Jr.
Biography[edit source]
At some point, John married Gloria Pemberton, and they had two children, a son named Sylvester and a daughter named Meredith.[1][2]
When Sylvester was fifteen years old, the family hired the twenty-year-old Pat Dugan as a driver and mechanic, who later helped Sylvester when he put on a mask to stop a group of criminals who were threatening his parents.[1] John and Gloria eventually discovered their son's activities as a vigilante and were murdered as a result.[3]
