QS is supposed to be the guy who used Xavier and Wanda to make the HoM. Everyone else are just pawns in it.
he did indeed often in avengers, he flew at hercules the first time 🙂

It's a cool premise, though.
Yeah I happen to agree, it probally will be more interesting then the HOM concept.

Actually that's wrong, he is indeed faster. Northstar and formerly Aurora are mutants capable of reaching 99% of light speed. Like I said earlier if written correctly, Northstar wins. Yes, Wolverine says he was B list; but that is untrue as well.....well I would consider him B list in X-Men since he doesn't do anything (well he did beat Sabertooth, a feat Wolverine struggles with....so that must make Wolverine B list himself), but in Alpha Flight he was never B list.
actauly he did not beat sabertooth he flew him away from the battle if u read later in the comic sabertooth was not even nocked out and he got him when he was not looking too. still sabertooth was fine. wolverine deffently a A list. also wolverine said even when they wer eon the team back in alpha flight he was never more then B-list at best

I'm Refering to the events of X-Men vol.2 #163 (Dec 2004): "Well, Northstar was going to attack Sabretooth anyway, because Sabretooth was part of a squad of baddies attacking Xavier's Institute. Northstar runs up to Sabes in the forest outside of the academy and grabs him to start the attack. It was during the battle that this exchange occurred:
JP: Hello, Sabretooth-- Remember me? I'm the one with superspeed, and you're the one with the mutant healing power. Let's put both to the test, shall we?
Sabes: Yer more of a girl than your sister was, freak.
JP: AAAH! (uh, this is where Sabes rips open his arm)
JP: My... sister...? (small text)
JP: You know where Jeanne-Marie is?! (encircled in red) Tell me where she is now!
Then Northstar flies Sabes into a few dozen tree trunks, knocking him out.
JP: Or... ...we can wait till you wake up."

What Wolverine said was incorrect, pick up Alpha Flight comics to see for yourself. God back in Alpha Flight days, Wolverine was B list at best before his upgrades. Have you seen how many times over the years he has struggled with Sabertooth and Northstar quickly deposits him. That is not B list.
edit: Hell he has even knocked out Storm

Yes, Northstar did indeed beat Sabertooth. He was knocked out. After getting ko'd by Northstar, Sabertooth didnt appear in that comic again. That is X-Men #163. He was shown again in the next comic which is X-Men #164. Thats when he came to and was all bruised and battered then lost to Wolverine. Sabertooth definately wasnt fine my friend.

False again sir. Wolverine fought him in the next issue(X-Men #164). They didnt even show the fight. And Wolverine claimed to have cut Sabertooth into chunks, which i think its PIS. They knew the fans would never buy that. Thats why they didnt even show the fight.
I'd love to hear wolverine8888's explanation for this one.
"Well..uh...he couldn't do that to Wolverine!"
Yes, yes he could, my friend. Sabretooth is more durable and has a better healing factor than Wolverine, yet Northstar stomped him but pretty quickly.
Wolverine would go down faster.
Quicksilver still has the better name.

Thanks for posting the scans, added credability to my post until I can get my scanner working again.

In the AOA 10th anniversary #2, he and X-23 killed Aurora and Northstar in a completly dumb way which realistically wouldn't happen. Key point like I said, written correctly Northstar is indeed A list.
Yes, Quicksilver has a better name 🙂

I checked my Alpha Flight vol. 1 #19 and I didnt see any mention of Northstar moving 99% speed of light.Although I do think NS is faster. And I actually think he has a cooler name.
They don't say him, they say Aurora [they have the exact same powers though] and did I get the issue number wrong? It for sure is true that he can possibly reach 99% of lightspeed, now I will have to rummage through to get the exact issue #. Bear with me, I'm busy right now
Cooler name? Now I know your crazy

Sorry for the double post, but the 99% light speed was also mentioned in Northstar's Handbook Master Edition page
Uhm yeah in the vacuum of space, not on earth. In Marvel there is no speed force so there is nothing to protect him while he attempts to reach those speeds it would kill him.

He has built up his body resistance due to he actually charged up and went through a Sentinel without any damage.
This is what it says in the databook, yet he can still do it just not for long.

From Marvel Directory.com:
"Aurora is a mutant who possesses the ability to propel her body at superhuman speed, becoming a living projectile. Through an act of concentration, Aurora can channel a portion of the kinetic energy of the atomic motion in her body's molecules in a single direction. This can accelerate her body in a velocity in direct proportion to the amount of kinetic energy she has tapped. It was once theoretically possible for her to reach 99% of the speed of light (286,272 miles per second in a vacuum), although she never traveled at anywhere near that speed since if she did, she would wreak great damage upon herself end her environment. Dr. Langkowski's actions in molecularly restructuring Aurora's body greatly reduced the potential limits of her speed. She now can move at speeds roughly up to the speed of sound (about 770 miles per hour at sea level). This reduction has made little difference in the use of her powers over short distances, since she can still move faster than the human eye can follow."
Their abilities are different from Quicksilver, so by manipulating the kinetic energy it seems possible that they can build up a defence for their body. Plus who knows what other upgrades he got from the Hand.
