The original theme of the magazine was Majalah Komik Gaya Urban ("Urban style comic magazine") but was later changed to Majalah Manga Anime Terkini, ("Latest manga anime magazine"). Its first issue came out on 4 June 2004.
It is published twice each month by Art Square Creation Sdn. Bhd. Since then Starz has been one of the most popular comic magazines in Malaysia. The articles are about the latest anime, manga, and anime-related things such as DVDs, OSTs, and toys. Besides articles, the magazine also has comics made by great Malaysian comic artists such as Zint (Under 18-No Fear), Kaoru (Helios Eclipse), Fatal Chaos (Ben), Loveville (Aie), Zoology (Stanley G) and many more.
In February 2007, GempakStarz editor's made the decision to turn Starz into a monthly magazine. Starz no longer showed cases the comics of local comics save a few shorties. Instead, Starz featured information on the latest manga, animations, movies, lyrics and artists.
