Thanks goes to Mike S. who pointed out this typo.  The aliens in
question were, of course, the Celestials.

BTW, thanks to whoever pointed out that my list didn't explain who the
characters are.  The following are changes that I've made recently
(including, believe it or not a clarification on the timeline question).
Please feel free to make more suggestions.  After all, I'm only going by
what we know.  (OK, we don't *really* know Cable is Nathan but ...)


Amanda Sefton: FA: UX #98
               Death (?): X-Factor #69
               Amanda was (is?) romantically linked to Kurt
      (Nightcrawler).
Anti-Phoenix: FA: Excalibur #48
              LA: Excalibur #50
              The Anti-Phoenix is an entity identical to Pheonix but
      male.  Speculation: as the Phoenix exists only in one timeline
      (this despite three What If ... stories to the contrary), it
      is natural to assume that the same is true of the Anti-Phoenix.
      The name "Anti"-Phoenix suggests that their existance is
      co-dependent (i.e. if your reality has the Phoenix then it has
      the Anti-Phoenix as well and vice-versa).
Archangel: FA: (as Angel) UX #1 (as Archangel) X-Factor #24
           Angel had ongoing roles in Champions and in Defenders
