I know, I know...they're a cheap knock-off of Alpha Flight, but I was wondering if they've appeared anywhere other than the Northstar LS?? I'm writing a fan-fiction to try and make them a little more interesting, and was hoping that there was a little more information about them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This group was introduced in X-Force as operateives of Department K (the division of the Canadian government that recruited the 2nd Weapon X, Kane).
I can't recall which exact issues they appeared in, but they were involved in two storylines. The first was shortly after Liefield left the book (between issues 8 and 11, I believe) while the second was during Greg Capullo's run - in the early 20's. Hopefully, someone else can be more specific.
These characters actually looked good drawn by Capullo and definitely showed potential. Aside from this, and the Northstar LS, I can't recall if they've been shown since.

Yah, I liked P.R.I.M.E.'s looks. Tygerstryke though was just another Gurdian suit knockoff. Double Trouble and Yeti were OK. But Killjoy (for some reason called Killspree in the Northstar LS) was a great character design, too bad in the N LS they screwed around with him. THe quiet agile strong strategist in X-Force was cool. Maybe PRIME will resurface in the new X-Force, terrible as it is so far.
X-Force 22-23.

Just a quick question here, what is the connection between Weapon P.R.I.M.E and Rictor from X-Force. For some reason I can't get, that there was some connection out of my head?

Rictor was a member of PRIME (they should have been called Law Agency Minions Extraordinaire, or Weapon LAME for short) during the first X-Force run.
IMHO: Tigerstrike had potential, especially in the NS series where Heather knew him by name.
Double Trouble such wonder twins knocks off
Killguy looked OK, and Yeti is a good character to have around Canada just so Sasquatch can kick the crap out of him one of these days.

What does "P.R.I.M.E." stand for anyway, was it ever revealed?

I think I read somewhere that P.R.I.M.E stands for: Primary (or Pre-emptive, I forget which) Response In Mutant Emergencies.
Yeah, it's lame but no worse than A.I.M or S.H.I.E.L.D. ;)
