      So#55 was the last issue published. My LCS was right yesterday!

      Maybe he was too astonished to act dumb?

      Poor work by editors and writers alike?

      So it's the same reason why they're all mutants?

      I agree. I picked it up this (Tuesday) morning. No Alpha Flight beyond the first page.

      That's disappointing.

      Would it have been more, or less, disappointing, if i had lied and said they were on every page?


      Actually, they ARE on every page; as long as the issue you are reading only has the first page.

      I'm thinking I will have to officially review these Hulk issues soon. As much as i have enjoyed seeing the Alphans again, I'm not so sure that this is my favouritest appearance by them; not much more than cannon-fodder and page-fillers, really. Disappointing, but expected.

      Yes, until I read the issue.
      Then I'd get mad, and be forced to hunt you down.

      That can be arranged...

      It's neither their best nor their worst. But it's on the low end of the spectrum
