Northstar Controversy Catching On

Remember a while ago Sgt. Sausagepants created a wee bit of a kerfluffle when he threw down the gauntlet to Marvel? We wanted to see Northstar be treated as a full character, relationships and all.

Well, it seems like Brian Cronin over at Comics Should Be Good is of a like mind. Brian takes a look at the disparity in time Northstar has been around to the number of times he's been linked romantically at all.

If you have a few minutes, it's worth the time to read the comments - although you'll have to ignore the usual few of a homophobic nature.

Northstar's Boyfriend Coming In January! You guys may recall I was a bit cranky about Northstar and his lack of lovin' about a year and a half ago. In fact, at the time, I issued a challenge to Marvel to get him a kiss by June 2009 or I would declare him not really gay. I have not forgotten about this. However, when the X-men moved to San Francisco this year, we were teased with the existence of what looked to be Northstar's boyfriend (and manager), so I delayed judgment until we could see more. Since then, Northstar hasn't had a lot of major appearances, as there have been about a thousand major crossover events in the Marvel universe in the last six months, and each one tends to disrupt the normal storyline for most books, including the many X-books. So I waited. Our patience seems to have been rewarded! Artist Tim Fish revealed on his blog that his upcoming story in Nation X #2 (which comes out in Jan.) is a story about Northstar, and will feature Kyle, his boyfriend in an 8-page story. I'm not sure if an actual kiss is in it, but it's implied that there is some lovin' going on. Check out some sketches of Northstar, Kyle, and Aurora below, and we'll keep you up to date when we get closer to Jan. NATION X #2 1/6/10 [TimFishWorks]...
