I really loved the beautiful and messed up Aurora (Jeanne-Marie Beaubier) when she first appeared in X-Men #120 as a member of Alpha Flight.
Heck, I liked Alpha Flight in general when they first showed up.
I even had an" Alpha Flight Auxillary Member" bumper stiucker on my car.
Anyway, Aurora was the twin sister of Northstar (Jean-Paul Beaubier) and the former girlfriend of Sasquatch (Walter Langkowski).
She was plagued with dissociative identity disorder and also being retconned to be half-human, half-elf. But as for the latter, she got better.
Aurora can fly REALLY fast (theoretically approaching light-speed) and has super human speed and reflexes.
Still not fast enough to touch the Silver Age Flash, but Jeanne-Marie is way cuter.
As usual with Marvel characters she has had her mental state pounded to oblivion, been abused, used etc.
Is there a happy comic character anymore?
I mean not counting the crazy ones.......
