Happy Birthday, Firestar. #NewWarriors
Few heroes can list both the Avengers and the X-Men on their resume, but that’s just what Firestar can do thanks to her long and storied career.
The microwave-powered mutant has fought alongside pretty much everyone from Captain America to Wolverine, adding her signature heat blasts and fiery personality to the arsenal of a number of super teams. In her 30 years of publication, Angelica Jones might most be known for her lengthy stint as a member of the New Warriors, a team that she helped found alongside Night Thrasher, Nova, Justice, Speedball and Namorita.
But Firestar has been a member of one other team—a team that had less than heroic ambitions!
