Although Byrne had intended the character to be gay, he was restricted to implied hints of this fact, due to Marvel editor-in-chief Jim Shooter's policy against openly homosexual characters, and by the Comics Code Authority. So in order to make the team less two-dimensional and more developed, Northstar's sexual orientation was subtly introduced into the start of the new Alpha Flight series. They had no back-stories and were created as nothing more than a team to face the X-Men.

Northstar was also featured in miniseries including two X-Men and Alpha Flight series and Secret Wars II.Ĭreator John Byrne was reluctant to produce an initial run of the 1983 Alpha Flight comic series for lack of developed and compelling characters. In addition to the Alpha Flight comic and associated annuals, Northstar and other members of the team made numerous guest appearances in other titles, particularly Uncanny X-Men and Wolverine. In 1983, Alpha Flight went on to star in its own comic, with Northstar as a charter member. Northstar debuted in The Uncanny X-Men #120 (April 1979) as part of the Canadian government sponsored team Alpha Flight, who sought to take Wolverine of the X-Men into custody. He married his husband, Kyle Jinadu, in Astonishing X-Men #51 (June 2012), which was the first depiction of a same-sex wedding in mainstream comics. The character is one of the first openly gay superheroes in American comic books, and the first openly gay character to come out in a book published by Marvel Comics.
Although the character was initially depicted as a member of Alpha Flight, he has appeared regularly as a member of the X-Men since joining the team of mutants in The Uncanny X-Men #414 (December 2002). His twin sister, Aurora, possesses similar abilities. The character possesses the ability to travel at superhuman speeds, fly, and project photonic energy blasts. Northstar is a member of a fictional subspecies of humanity known as mutants, who are born with superhuman abilities.
