Thread: Getting together

  1. #1

    Default Getting together

    I think maybe we should put our heads together to figure out how to get AF back for later in 2005. OK, Byrne line-up with one or two newer characters seems to be the draw. NO Aurora or Northstar if they're still tied up in other books. NO Marrina retconn.

    So Mac Hudson, H. Hudson. Sasquatch, Puck, Shaman, Snowbird. Then 1 or 2 more of Earthmover, Box, MML, Zuzha, Talisman, or who?

    Let's all add our ideas and get Alpha Flight back ASAP!

    Fire Away!
    Keep your stick on the ice.

    Live it.

    There's no need for her to be retconned. I would like to see it dealt with, though(as far as finding out if she's dead or not)...It's gone on long enough, don't you think?

    If I remember correctly...
    Marrina killed about Avengers 395...rather needlessly.
    established in Alpha Flight #78 as lying in a "false" death beneath the sea
    showed in the Master's Possession in the Kang War story by Busiek in Avengers. She seemed to be in status, and no comment was made, just her being shown in one panel.
    There may have been another glimpse of her status, not as a mirage or flashback, somewhere in between
    Someday, some writer will pick up on her. The big shame is that Byrne did not do so in his Namor run in the 1990's

    recent publications in M-Brane Science Fiction and the anthology Things We Are Not.
    Forthcoming stories in Breath and Shadow, Star Dreck anthology and The Aether Age: Helios.

    There's a beginning action-filled, character-driven plotline for you:

    The Alphans battle an alien menace in space before returning (if Lobdell doesn't bring them back in the last issue), and while attempting to set up a new base of operations stumble upon an old, overlooked data-patch from the Avengers Kang crisis -- seeing Marrina alive, they set about to freeing their teammate.

    12 issue maxi-series (with the potential for an ongoing, based on sales) that has a surplus of both drama and action.

    Just so long as you don't mind if I use it someday, too.

    Heh, no problem. No one said similar storylines in fiction can't coexist - especially if you are using the same characters. As long as it's not the EXACT same story...

    Not soon enough for me. I'm STILL missing issues 9 - 11.

    45 (I think) to 54, repercussions in 55. Latest series ('cept The New Avengers).

    The Master appeared in 45 - 47, Marrina in one panel of 47; only the readers saw her.

    I think the next series should begin with Walter waking up in the shower and realizing V3 was all just a dream.

    heh, I think the next series should have Walter wake up in the shower and realise he's DROWNING. Sleeping in the shower - not so safe.

    Drowning? In a shower?

    Wouldn't a bathtub be more dangerous?

    Maybe it's an evil, super powered shower sent by the Dream Queen.
