Marvel’s First Out Gay Superhero To Be Written By An Out Gay Man – For The Second Time

AlfterElton.com ran a little piece on the Alpha Flight news that pointed out a little wrinkle.

Jim McCann is bringing back Alpha Flight for a one shot, including Northstar, Sasquatch, and all the dead members. Our resident comic genius Lyle says it’s the first time an out writer has tackled Northstar. While it’s written as a one shot, if popular enough, it could turn into more.

Close but no cigar. The first was Tim Fish, who wrote and drew a piece in Nation X#2 with Northstar dealing with a long distance relationship with his boyfriend. The story appears in the Nation X hardcover.


Just nice to get those kind of things right…
