I'm being presumptuous, assuming that not only will Marvel announce Flight plans at Toronto, but that it'll be an Alpha Flight ongoing, the real deal, even if AF members Mac, Heather, Puck, MML, Zuzha, Shaman, and Snowbird are 'dead'.
What will it turn out to be, anyway?
I'm going to say full announcement. They've already said they're going to do a new Flight, so I'm thinking the con is where they'll spill who the characters are, the creative team, plot and due date. However, I'm wondering if it will be Alpha Flight or some other name since they have yet to say anything other than there will be a new "Flight" book.
Guys...I don't really want to rain on your parade, but "revisiting a Flight" does not, in any way translate to Alpha Flight (or even Omega) getting a new series (it could be an Omega guest appearance, the "Ultimate" Alpha Fakes in another "Ultimate" story or even a flashback story with the originals).
Don't count your chickens before they're hatched.

cmdrkoenig67, ill make a bet with you, if they announce it, you have to give me a a fake digital hug every time you post something.

tomorrow is the toronto comic con, i can't imagine somebody not asking about alpha flight during one of the confrences.
i am scary? look at the new carebear leader...Quote:

Hopefully somebody will ask the questions that need to be asked...I hate seeing everyone feel let down or cheated (including myself) by no announcement or another possible Volume Three (or another Avengers West Coast/Force Works wannabee team set in Canada).Quote:

I usually decide if it's time to get excited around about issue #3... which is enough time to figure if the new thing with the word 'Flight' on the cover isQuote:
