Wishlist for the new Alpha Flight maxi...
Taking a cue from Alpha Fan over in the main thread, my hoped-fors in the new series...
- Jeanne-Marie and Sasquatch do not hook up again. Friendship? Sure. Romance...not so much. It's been a long time, and I'd like to see more comic-book couples allowed to move on instead of held thrall to nostalgia. (I'm looking at you, Whedon!)
- Jean-Paul’s sexuality not used as a punchline.
- Some self-confidence for Heather, please — she lead the team far longer than Mac did, and the indications that she’s the one trying to get out from under his shadow are worrisome.
- A name for the Hudson baby.
- A last name for Kyle.
- On-panel kiss for Jean-Paul and Kyle.
- Marrina given more personality than "crazy Plodex lady".
- Jeanne-Marie’s mental illness not used as a super-power.
- Some differentiation between the twins’ powers — I’m OK with JP as the speedster, JM as the light-bringer, even if it means getting the canary bathing suit back into play.
- Reunion between Michael and Elizabeth, dammit!
- No calling either of the Twoyoungmen’s “Sarcee”.
Ditto...especially the last line

- Mac confident in his leadership abilities by the end of the story with the others accepting him in that role.
- Just one personality for Aurora, the MPD has been done to death now.
- Marrina learning how she died at Namor's hands, with it followed up on in the ongoing.
- The team shown as competent heroes.
Plus Elizabeth and Judd.
No pressure,eh?
Looking forward to May...and beyond.[-o<
