Haven't you noticed? In movies, books, TV and comics Canada is a magical land where nothing bad ever happens. Whenever something terrible befalls the world, you will get a list of nations that are affected, but despite being the 2nd largest country we never get hit. I, for one, sleep better knowing that my nation is safe in all the various entertainment mediums.

I'm no teacher, but that might possibly be a pupil in your eye! :P

Like in Outbreak, where you see a scene showing the spread of the virus, and it apparently respects international borders.
At least I'm mostly safe; only Sydney gets attacked ever. So if I'm not there when the ship hits the fan (the ship being the giant spaceship in ID4, and the fan being the Sydney Opera House), I should be okay!

Yes, but only when the story is set in those cities, or at least in Canada. Otherwise, the country seems remarkably untouchable while the rest of the world gets jerseyed.Well, not QUITE true.... things always seem to hit Toronto and Montreal....Haven't you noticed?

Perhaps Hollywood screen-writers think Canada has only two or three cities?
Dana :P

A friend came back from the lake and told me a bit about MCP #11, but he wasn't too clear. Something like Pointer finds out the people he's been stealing powers et al from are dead, who's behind it all, and something about how necessary Sasquatch and Arachne are to keep Pointer in line or something like that. Also, apparently Agent Brown isn't on the ball about Weapon Omega and may be going after Pointer or Benning in #12.
As I said, he wasn't too clear, methinks he drank too much.

Nope, they're not dead. Not all of them.
The story has a great tribute image of his traumatic origin. (It wasn't the greatest team in the world. It was just a tribute.)
... but it does look like any actual Alphans will be out of the way for the climactic battle.

A battle? To get rid of Pointer once and for all?
Ah, too much to hope for.
Keep your stick on the ice.
Live it.
I guess not everyone has seen these:
The cover to MCP #12 (wouldn't all the characters in the picture be dying if they were that close to Pointer??).
A page of US Agent and Brown in 'action'.
And a page of Pointer not looking so hot.
Keep your stick on the ice.

No, because none of them are mutants and it's a cover which is different from what happens inside of a comic.
