Not so amazing, perhaps, if you allow for his mental breakdown.

Well, some of that smartosity was just arrogant boasting.
But not all.



Bochs did, too. Because they didn't want him, just his robot.



True - in fact, not wanting to be crippled is why...

I imagine he might've told those stories if he'd spent more time on the book.



LOL! The Very first panels of the book!



Given what he created with that attitude, I still wouldn't mind...

Can I help it if I like to verb words?



Yeah, I've always felt the same way.
Again, a poor craftsman blaming his tools.



An Alpha Flight Forever? Any possibility they can get John Byrne...

Fair enough. I just take it as somebody doing something they don't want to for their job.



Agree, totally.

I seem to remember the writer saying at some point (contrariwise to FP's point...

Well, his firstest appearance was kind of as a villain.

Sorry make you sad. :(

I think that depends on what we mean by 'the start'; I suspect you're talking Alpha Flight #1, but I'm talking Uncanny X-Men #109 (and before).



... but no, Byrne never wanted Heather in the...

Verisimilitude.

I think that's what we...

:D I like it!

"If you would keep a secret from an enemy, tell it not to a friend."

Well, you should've been at the last party. We didn't get home 'til three.

Wait... wasn't it just heavily damaged, not destroyed?

Yeah, I agree with FP here.
(As long as we don't take it too far; trying to be too 'ultra-realistic' and trying to be taken seriously (by who, I don't know) are two of the reasons I'm finding it...

Thanks! But, why? It's not like I'm always right or anything.

If the competition's anything like the pollies in the real world, they're still better off with him.

My bad. Must've been after the black oil outbreak in the mid 90's.

I am, a little bit, but:

Almost all of it was confined to politicians and reporters in Ottawa.

Maybe they didn't want custody, being old? Or, the cousins particularly did; they wanted kids but couldn't have their own?

Robbing a bank causes more problems than just money, though; trauma for the peole involved being the big one.



He's the kind of guy who (like Wolvie) knows everybody.
