Any price-tag on that puppy? Because that sounds tempting, but paying money for Ben Raab's work ever again puts me on the fence so far as acquiring it goes.
Fantastic!
Will buy this for sure, even though I usually only buy softcovers.
So we have Alpha action in new comics and trades...cool!
Next I would like:
1 A new Alpha Flight ongoing
2 Alpha Flight Classic Volume 2 TPB
3 Alpha Flight Vol 2 (90s) Ultimate Collection TPB (complete series in 1 volume)
4 Northstar limited series + extras TPB
And the variant is the Smith cover, not the other one(which they list as being by Byrne).
Are you sure about this? I'm fairly certain I did this right, the Cockrum cover being the partial reprinting of the cover of UXM #109 as the variant and the Smith cover reprinting the wraparound cover of the X-Men Alpha Flight crossover is the regular cover.
Yes, the Classic X-Men versions of UXM#'s 109, 120 and 121 had additional material, a few extra pages:
Classic X -Men #16: This issue is a reprint of Uncanny X-Men #109, with some extra material. The cover is an amazing rendition by Arthur Adams of events within UXM #109, where Mac first pops up out of the ground. The extra AF-related material is on p6, where Mac briefly recaps his association with Logan and dons his cybernetic helmet and on p21, where he reviews his performance and flies back to 138A Laurier Drive and finds Heather Hudson at home.
Classic X-Men #26: This issue is a reprint of Uncanny X-Men #120, with some extra material. The cover says, "And now... Sasquatch!", and shows Sasquatch's arm. The extra AF-related material is on p3, showing Mac in the Dept H. control room, viewing the team roster, then calling Heather and talking about the upcoming mission.
Classic X-Men #27: This issue is a reprint of Uncanny X-Men #121, with some extra material. The cover says, "Along came… Alpha Flight" and shows a very evil shadowy team standing in angry victory over fallen X-Men. The extra AF-related material is on p20, an epilogue page depicting events after Logan's escape. The interior cover also shows a Polaroid of Hudson and Logan in civilian clothes enjoying a beer and a cigar as well as an image in f/b to the fight sequence of UXM #109, shown below.

Check any of the other Marvel Premiere Classics series, the 2 layered colour version is always the variant.

Yes, I've posted that I've been collecting all of them - so this will be mine either way.
That said, I really can't predict whether they'll include the bonus material, but knowing them I'm leaning towards 'yes' - but I wouldn't be surprised if it was tacked on to the end.
But I can confirm what Phil posted - the 2 layered colour version is always the variant. And really annoying when the three you had to buy over Amazon turned out not to be the variant!

Okay, maybe you didn't know that...
Buffy: How was school today? Dawn: The usual, big square building filled with boredom and despair. Buffy: Just how I remember it.

A little research later:
The Wikipedia page for Marvel Premier Classics says it'll reprint Uncanny X-Men, not Classic X-Men, so I'm not going to hold my breath for the bonus material.
- Le Messor Husband: Darling, will you love me when I'm old and feeble? Wife: You bet I do.
Wikipedia's Wikipedia though... but yeah, I thought it was unlikely, but hey...
True that, but it's been fairly accurate so far at this GN series.
The series does seem to want to give us as much as possible though. There've been little bonuses in the past.
