Marvel is pleased to present your first look at artist Dale Eaglesham’s variant cover to ALPHA FLIGHT #1 (of 8 ), featuring the return of Canada’s greatest heroes! As the shadow of Fear Itself falls across the globe, will a nation turn to – or turn on – Alpha Flight in their greatest hour of need?
“I've always wanted to do ALPHA FLIGHT, but didn't think I'd ever get the opportunity, so I'm very excited about this,” said Eaglesham. “This is the ideal team book - the characters have such depth and are so unique, so colorful. We have the heroic and iconic in Guardian, Snowbird and Northstar, for example, along with some quirkier heroes like Sasquatch and Marrina. As an artist, this is something I can really sink my teeth into and I'm loving every minute! With Greg and Fred writing, we also have some very topical, gripping and moving stories. I think the fans are going to fall in love with this book. I know I am.”
Discover why the team still stands tall as the greatest heroes of the Great White North, only in ALPHA FLIGHT #1 (of 8 )! No fan can miss the thunderous return of a legendary Marvel super team this June!
