      Interesting that they've gone with B&W for the variant.
      And that Marvel Unlimited Exclusive Cover is gonna be hard to get!

      I wonder if Mac & Heather are on 'the board'...?

      That would be amazing if they were. But sure it will be SHIELD, black panther and other reps of the triskelion

      Oh yeah, I'm sure those types will be on it too. I just wondered if they'd be included, based on
      While Marvel hasn't concretely revealed who sides with each hero in the conflict, will the current Alpha Flight roster play a factor in your tale?

      The members of Alpha Flight will definitely be around, and we'll learn even more about just how the new organization functions.

      I'm crossing my fingers. Department H and SHIELD should be partners

      Oh my lanta that would he awesome. I figured Marrina would appear but Jeffries? Thought the x-verse would still have a lock on him. Guess we shall see.

      Thats very promising

      It could be neither of them.
      Getting some new blood in would make sense, but it's nice they've been mentioned.

      I really could see machine man joining. I'm a big fan of the character so id be on board

      cant see quasar, but then again they haven't done anything with her since she gained her powers...and she needs exposure

      Can't one just join Marvel Unlimited? Seems easy after that, no? I'm not sure how that works.

      I don't think so.
      Firstly it has to be the MU Plus (which isn't available outside of the US - grrr), but there's no word or sign of it on the site, so it could have just been sent out to existing members already, or who signed up during a specific period, or it's to be given to Plus Members who attend the private panel at a specific convention.
      I'll try and find out.

      You'll have to let us all know how this goes. I'll be skipping the issue because of the crossover.

      Well, no Mac or Heather, but there is a new character who's the Alpha Flight Ambassador for Canada. I don't trust him though...
