  Science Fair Projects - Northstar
This month was notable for Marvel killing Northstar in three seperate timelines within the space of one calendar month, between the 16th of February and the 9th of March 2005 (as well as W25, the new version of the Age of Apocalypse and X-Men: The End).
Northstar’s coming out was controversial and, as a result, little mention was made of his sexual orientation for the remainder of the first Alpha Flight series, which ended in 1994.
Northstar even experienced a crush on the long-time X-Man Iceman, though he soon dropped it when it became obvious Iceman was heterosexual.

 Superhero - meaning of word
Marvel Comics and DC Comics share ownership of the United States trademark for the phrase "Super Heroes" as it applies to comics, and almost all of the world's most famous superheroes are owned by these two American companies.
Comic book companies were in the early stages of cultural expansion and many of these characters played to specific stereotypes.
In the 1990s and 2000s, Marvel and DC released novels based on important stories from their comics, such as ''The Death of Superman'' and the year-long ''No Man's Land (comics).''
