Tid-bit from a review I found:
The purpose of issue #414 is to bring Northstar into the cast. Quite reasonably, the story is all about establishing the character. And for Austen, that seems to involve two dominant personality traits: he’s grumpy, and he’s gay. Grumpy, gay Northstar.
Poor old Northstar. There was a time when he was a character, you know, not just The Gay One. God knows I don’t want to go back to the days when gay characters could only be hinted at, but at least in those days it was possible for Northstar to turn up in a story without at least one scene entirely devoted to reminding us that he’s gay.
He’s not Grumpy, he’s from Quebec! ;)
