What do you think is a good line-up for Alpha Flight?

[birdygirl]

My dream Alpha Flight line-up:

Guardian, (Mac)
Vindicator, (Heather)
Shaman
Snowbird
Sasquatch
Northstar
Aurora
Puck
Marrina
Talisman

As you can see, it's the classic John Byrne line-up. What can I say? I'm old-fashioned!

Some interesting combos ya'all are coming up with.

After much thought, here's my ideal version of Alpha, a good mix of old and new:

Northstar (leader) - he has the most experience of the seven, and has proven himself capable
Snowbird - she adds the mystical touch
Nemesis - the team badass
Zuzha Yu - the fun one, who hooks up with the new Guardian
Box - the team powerhouse
Diamond Lil - just a great character
New Guardian - the rookie, with the same Guardian suit, but without all the Guardian baggage

Welcome to the Asylum, Vinten. Glad to see a new face, despite no current Alpha Flight - even though they seem to be getting a lot of attention these days.

To be fair I'm torn.

Alpha Flight for me is:

Guardian
Northstar
Aurora
Shaman
Snowbird
Sasquatch.

For me the dynamics just work.
I'm so torn between adding Puck though, that's the problem.

However, I do like the idea of a more covert team as well. Not a Beta Flight per se because they're experienced members but more of a less publically known team that can do things the face of Canada can't. Without going too far into Stormwatch/Volume 2 dept. H territory.

For them I'd probably pick;

Puck
Jeffries
Diamond Lil
Talisman
Wildchild/Heart/Weapon Omega
Wyre

I'd have Heather as a Department H liason, and Windshear as teaching staff to the Beta's;

Manikin
Persuasion
Flex
Earthmover

If it was an action Alpha Flight with covert Beta Flight, I'd pick:

Hudsons run Department H

Alpha Flight
Shaman
Sasquatch
Northstar
Zuzha
Major Maple Leaf
New character (Inuit)

Beta Flight
Puck
Snowbird
Ghost Girl
Flex
Flinch

[Barnacle13]

A covert Beta team has to have Pathway on it. Laura Dean would be able to get them in and out of places undetected.

Who was Flinch? Can someone refreash my memory?

He was a Legacy from Hull House, right, in the 2nd series.

Yup, we had just seen him in passing as Gentry was inspecting Dept. H when he first came on-board.

But I guess he wasn't as important as Ghost Girl, and she wasn't important at all.

Do we know what his powers are?
