As per The Boys Fandom’s official page, as per Starlight’s costume design, appearance, and powers, she is a combination of DC superheroine Mary Marvel and Starfire and the Marvel superheroes Dazzler and Captain Marvel.
Starlight has powers such as the ability to Fly, the ability to control light, bioluminescence, enhanced strengths and super-hearing, which closely resembles the powers of all the four heroes mentioned.
Starlight’s costume is an amalgamation of Mary Marvel and Starfire’s costume. In contrast, her powers, such as Flying Ability, Light Attacks, super-hearing and enhanced strengths, are similar to all the four superheroes combined Dazzler, Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel and Starfire.
That is why Starlight is based on all the four characters combined (Dazzler, Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel and Starfire).
