      Okay, the official word is: Mac is referring to AF #12 Vol 1, and NA #16 when he says he's died twice. So sayeth the Fred.

      He's missing out the events of AF #97-100 where he died (again). Or did he really died that time? Or the time he almost died in AF vol2 #1 or did he die in that one as well. Bloody 'ell, I'm so confused now.

      Nope he didn't die in #97-100 as the Master found him floating in space and revealed him in AF #129-130

      He almost died n vol.2, but he didn't actually die. He never officially died as in pass into the afterlife until New Avengers #16...everything else was him being presumed to be killed, but wasn't.

      Yeah, I'm not too happy about this concept. It doesn't "feel" right that one of the Great Beasts would be able to block Narya's shapeshifting ability. Does this also cancel out all of her other powers? Super strength? Flight? She should still have been able to escape or smash the Box if it only canceled out her shape-shifting.

      She transformed into this Great Beast in Hercules, so technically wouldnt she not be able to if just a bone fragement prevents her from shifting? Ranark must have done a spell on it.

      Wasn't the fact that he wasn't kind of a plot point? Heather couldn't prove he was dead, so couldn't get benefits.
