Alpha Question

[Garry/Al-Fan]

...significance of burial? A lot of folks might not like this, but I don't think the members of Alpha Flight should have a funeral. I don't think they are totally, completely, permanently dead.

I'd like to see an official cenotaph in Ottawa for AF.

Oooo, I like that idea. And definitly a star on the walk of fame in T.O.

I agree. Totally, completely, one hundred percent agree.

Just once, id' like somebody to throw us all a bone. What about Elizabeth communicating with her father's spirit, and Michael says "when did i say that all the members but Walter were killed during the battle with the Collective?"

Something to keep hope alive...

Ok maybe this has already been addressed and I missed it. But...In Alpha Flight vol.3 Sasquatch's team brings the original Alpha team back from the past to the present. It is also stated in the same story that they are here in the present while the real members are on the Plodex homeworld. If...the Alpha members that went to the Plodex homeworld are the ones that died in Alaska, than when did they comeback and where are the time displaced counterparts? If it was the time displaced counterparts that died that day, than the team that went to the Plodex home world is still alive and could come back. Furthermore a time displaced version of Northstar and Aurora are floating around somewhere. That means there are 2 Northstars and Auroras in the current time line. If anyone has any answers about this you will helping my self imposed headache greatly.

Officially, according to Marvel Universe I believe, somebody somewhere decided that the althernate reality versions of AF just "poofed" (disappeared instantaneously) out of existence.
Personally, i find that lame beyond all belief.
Although hope still reigns in my heart, as some people at Marvel have questioned whetehr this is true or not, and have suggested that until a comic book actually says during a story that the alternate AF are gone, they could still be out there somewhere.
But apparently, it is the real AF that faced the Collective in "battle."

the problem is there are alot of things that the staff say in interviews "you'll find out in omega flight" but do they really have to room? I mena they need to introduce solid characters, explain the reason for the team, explain what happened to AF, explain who gaurdian is, how sasquatch survived, how the government is takign it, if they are part of the government...and need to do this and have a solid 5 issue series.. it will be difficult

One of my pet peeves is the page count. White Tiger# 1 has more than 22 pages (and the story is still all over the place). Dynamo 5 #1 has 28 pages (and introduced the team well) I believe Mighty Avengers #1, although I didn't buy it, has more than 22 pages.

Adding a few extra pages at no extra cost is something I think will benefit OF if it chooses to do this in #4 and/or #5.
