    Default Electricity and water

    Do water and electricity mix well? This is one of the random thoughts that crossed my mind as I was reading Mantlo-era ALPHA FLIGHT.

    They're famous for how they mix.

    And Heather's "Vindicator" electromagnetic suit runs on/uses electricity, right?
    Once upon a time, they exploded from the pages of The X-Men. For a moment, they were "Canada's answer to The Avengers."

    They were ALPHA FLIGHT....

    ...once upon a time.

    Electromagnetic and geo-thermal energy. Her first suit was just EM, then in VOL 2 it became just geothermal and currently it seems a hybrid between the two. As both suits had different abilities

    Default Vindicator under water

    Okay. So her first suit (the one that Heather wore when the Mantlo-verse AF teamed up with the AVENGERS) was EM and went underwater with no adverse effects to her or anyone near her?

    I see your point, but I think that's because of the force field, and maybe heavy insulation.

    Okay. [Won't ask what generated the force field] Not bad for someone who was constantly being characterized during this particular era as "just a housewife."

    Well, she didn't design / create it either - Madison and Bochs did, off the top of my head. Based off Mac's original ideas.

    I can see why you're dubious, though.
