The virus is HIV, AIDS is what it's called when HIV kills a certain amount of your white blood cells, so I don't think they did any research.

All the years I've been on this forum, and I've never really saw a fight over power levels. No "Is this Thor stronger than this Hulk?" Proud of you guys.

We're better than that. Comicvine is the go-to place for that.

To cut New Guardians a break, this was in a period where the United States President was pretty silent on AIDS and when he did talk about AIDS it often had shades of "Well, we're not ENTIRELY sure that they aren't gonna just aids out and put their aids all over normal heteros..." Like, Reagan had a fight with the surgeon-general at the time about the latter wanting to talk about AIDS. At all.

What they included in the famous Snowflame issue was simple but factually correct, as I recall. Obviously the part about a genetic mutant goblin being the vector was ridiculous but that's funny books for ya.

Choco1980: Feb 22, 2013; I fell in love with a Video Nasty

The New Guardians was hilariously bad. It was supposed to be the big result of the Millennium crossover event, where the Oans and Zamorraneans banged in order to create energy that would gather up 8 new heroes to create a new step in evolution (ie, crossbreed together it's inferred). Here's how things went for the 8:

Tom Kalamaku: Yes, Hal Jordan's Inuit sidekick. Has the power to "Bring out the best in people". Chooses not to join the team.

Floro, the Floronic Man, aka Jason Woodrue: Asexual plant man, unable to reproduce sexually.

RAM: A Japanese man who becomes a half-man, half-computer, because Japanese are good with computers I guess? Asexual cyborg, unable to have sex.

Extrano: A Peruvian, Gay version of Dr. Strange, with a name that is synonymous with "Queer". Would rather be the ladies' "Auntie" than their romantic partner. Has HIV before the team begins.

Betty Clawman: An Aborigine whose power set pulls her immediately into the Dreamtime, becoming a sort of spirit guide for the team. Unable to reproduce due to being a phantom.

Harbinger: Former assistant to The Monitor. Weird, dumb, alien lady. Not genetically compatible with humans.

Jet: The previously seen green-haired lady. Has electromagnetic powers. Gets HIV/AIDS from their second battle. Sacrifices herself during the Invasion! event out of stubborn pride and self-pity.

Gloss: A Chinese woman that gets Earth powers from Ley Lines (aka "Dragon Lines" to her. Because you know, China=dragons). Literally the only one out of eight with any chance of breeding. Beat the crap out of Guy Gardner once.

Bang up job, guys!

You know, I've heard the term 'Dragon Lines' before, and kind of assumed they were a similar concept that arose independently in China, maybe had something to do with Feng Shui, but a quick google just finds Ley Lines, so I guess... I forgot what I was trying to say.

Dragon lines (or dragon currents/paths) are a real thing from the tradition of Feng Shui. The idea behind Ley lines was from an early 20th century quack who heard about Feng Shui and was a bit too obsessed with old British maps. So it's not really any more problematic than the rest of the team.

Superman would beat Goku at first, then Goku would learn an anti-Superman technique and beat Superman, and then they'd team up to battle the true villain, and Clark Kent would get people all over the world to lend him their power for a Spirit Bomb. Obviously.
