every time i read his name all i can think of is boo from monsters inc.
emailed him to get a feel for his background with alpha flight, he was kind enough to respond:
Glad to see that you're so passionate about Alpha/Omega Flight and the new Guardian. I hope you enjoy MCP. Make sure when you read it to not miss the 1st page of the "Weapon Alpha" story...there was an unfortunate ad placement and a few people seemed to have missed it...it's the page with the girl banging on the door.
I'll try and get over to the Alpha Flight forum when I get a chance.
I was a HUGE Byrne fan back in the day and was there when Alpha Flight first started! Loved them when they first appeared in X-Men as-a-matter-of-fact. So, writing them now (some of them anyways) is a dream come true.
Excelsior!
