i did the exact same! :S
Thanks for the review, Ben!
You've been all over the promotion of this series since it was first announced, between the articles and interviews, and I'm happy you were able to objectively review...
I was checking out the paper while waiting for the train last Thursday and was pleasantly surprised to find an article featuring Alpha Flight and, more specifically, Dale Eaglesham:
...
Wonder Man was also part of the Legendary Riders series. He, along with Logan were the variants.
The Wonder Man variant was cast in translucient purple to simulate him 'powered up' while Logan...
I have to agree with Del that Byrne's linework looks great in B&W. The only Essential I own is the Iron Fist one, and that includes some nice early Byrne work. I think I remember an article where...
IIRC, it was a brief appearance of the team rescuing civilians in Athens, Greece, of all places?!? Nice shot of Snowbird flying towards the screen, with the outline of her cape used to change...
The most common one I know of features the cover of Marvel Age #2 on a yellow T:

I used to see one every now and then on eBay,...
Many thanks Del, Sylvie.
I guess it's all about perspective. I used to think of 30 as 'over the hill' but, now that I'm there, I seem to still be climbing.
Cheers,

Wow! Seeing everyone's lists, I didn't realize there was so much Alpha stuff out there.
It's hard to think of everything, as much of it's packed away, but here are a few notables:
Mignola team...
What are some of his recent responses regarding Alpha?[/quote]
"I didn't have much fun doing ALPHA FLIGHT, and don't consider that series among my best work. ... I have no desire to go back,...
I remember reading about the history behind the naming for the team and Mac. I'm pretty sure Byrne described some of that backstory in the letters page of issue 1 - although, it read a lot more...
I guess they want everyone to know :-) As for that music, I do have a faint ringing in my ears and an image of a youth's face only his mother could love.[/quote]
Amazing. I had a hard enough time...
OMG - AVENGERS MEXICO STARRING ARANA! :shock:
... sorry, couldn't resist.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the New Avengers storyline, even with the ominous tagline. After two somewhat...
As well as Comic Book Resources.
Hey Del, it's like an old-fashioned press realease duel-off. Can you hear the banjo music in the background? de de doo doo dee dee doo doo deee :D
Congrats to Ed! I really enjoyed those sample Alpha pages he posted all those years ago (through the AW mailing list) and, hopefully, this will lead to more mainstream work.
Newsarama has the...
The introduction of the GLA is included as part of the Vision Quest TPB coming in July. The character interaction was really good - especially between Hawkeye & US Agent, which led Clint to quit the...
Even though I liked much of his run, I'd have to say the worst Sasquatch I remember was Pat Broderick's - he looked like a giant ball of fur.
As for the best, that's a tough one. I'm partial to...
Yeah, but isn't that the point: In life, people die. Regardless of their race, status or, in this case, sexual preference.
I agree, the X-Men have had many diverse characters. However, thinking...
Wow, this bust looked good to begin with, but is so much better now with the metallic red paint.
I must serioulsy consider picking this up.

Okay, so in addition to the regular team, it looks like they've added a few new members.
On the far right, I'm pretty sure that's Squirrel Girl. But, I can't figure out that guy beside her. ...
Nice to know it was a simple bureaucratic oversight, hope you gave them heck. :)
I would also recommend the Celestine Prophecies. It's a quick read, but introduces a few interesting concepts. ...
Hey Ben,
Glad to see that the site's back up! I was a little worried when I visited yesterday and got a "site suspended" message.
Hopefully everything's okay but, if you need Member support,...
In the past, I've been introduced to some great books on the recommendation of others. However, for some reason, I've never really been one to do the recommending. I'd like to change that right...
Hey, my birthday's in March, too! Y'think they planned it that way...? :lol:

Hope nobody minds me quoting myself (from this thread):
The same thread lists out the other Alpha-related cartoon appearances, as well as those nifty animated avatars Phil created!
