Vanth Dreadstar is a fictional comic book character created by Jim Starlin. Dreadstar was originally introduced in Epic Illustrated magazine #1 (Spring 1980).

Dreadstar's original adventure, the "Metamorphosis Odyssey", ran in the first nine issues of Marvel Comics' Epic Illustrated (Spring 1980-October 1981). Eclipse Comics followed this with an original graphic novel, The Price, a black and white magazine which was subsequently reprinted in color in 1983 by Epic as the Dreadstar Annual.

The success of the character prompted Epic Comics/Marvel to publish a Dreadstar comic book, which ran for 26 issues (November 1982-August 1986). First Comics subsequently published issues #27-64 (November 1986-March 1991). Jim Starlin left the series after issue #30, and was replaced by Peter David as the writer. Several years after the First Comics title was canceled, Malibu Comics published 6 more issues, set after the end of the First Comics run, and featuring the daughter of Dreadstar (April 1994 - January 1995).

Vanth Dreadstar was born on the planet Byfrexia, a harsh and frigid world located in the Vega system. What is known of Vanth's story begins when, as a teenager, he is forced to witness the brutal slaying and devouring of his parents at the hands of snow beasts (later described as snow bears). Stranded and miles away from any settlements, he would surely have died of exposure and starvation had he not found the Sword of Power created and left there long before by Lord Aknaton. The weapon gives Vanth wondrous powers, allowing him not only to survive but to thrive.
