    I like Mokole's explanation. Mine would've been inconsistent writing, but Mokole noticed another thread.

    But I don't agree with it, for the reasons cited; Heather -has- always been strong - she brought Alpha together, after all. Twice - once when she brought Mac to Parliament and Cody (and was then indirectly responsible for the team's formation) and once when she summoned them all to fight Tundra.

    Remember her fighting off Delphine Courtney - "Other superhero wives and girlfriends may be content to play hostage..." ?

    I personally believe Byrne, if he had stayed, always had intent to guide Heather into the suit. He has stated otherwise, something like "Making that suit work on a woman boggles the imaginati0on" or some such, but I think things like that were probably said as not to spoil the inevitable surprise. The sunglasses gave it away; artistically, Mac's head shot wasn't anything to look at. The goggles with Heather in the cowl gave it what it needed.

    Seroquel asked if you would turn over all Alpha related comics to him and you said yes.

    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    Heh, nice try, Del. As I said not too long ago: NO ONE is getting my comics - Alpha or otherwise - until I'm dead, buried and mulch. Anyone wants my collection, they'll have to forge my signature on a will, then take a hit out on me.

    Hmm... Allan, I'm a pretty good artist. Can I see a copy of your signature? And, let's see, who do I know in Canada who, um, 'exterminates pests'...

    I'd have loved to have seen Byrne tackling Heather in the suit...
    Wait, that came out wrong. You know what I mean.

    LOL, about a buck-and-a-half. I don't have much (about 1400 total, mostly comprising of X-Men and Alpha - almost have all of series 1!! YAY!).

    Ewww to the idea of Byrne with anybody. *shudder*
    Riiiiight. C'mon, admit it, mate: you think the idea of much older men and strong, successful, physically-two-dimensional women hot! I know you too well! (Mind, the fact that Byrne created said physically-two-dimensional woman borders on creepy - wouldn't that be akin to incest??)

    And when the hell did this thread start to look like it needs to be in the Cupboard with the furnature porn??
