Talisman Rising in issue 18
http://www.byrnerobotics.com/forum/f....asp?TID=23349
And the hits continue!I love Elizabeth Twoyoungmen, and the scenes with Snowbird were also great, (enjoyed seeing her as a bunny rabbit).
I just thought of something. What's going to happen when you reach Alpha Flight vol 1, #28? Will you continue with the series, or end it there, since what you're showing us is the John Byrne run?
Since it's the Byrne forum, I'm stopping with issue 28 (I like to think the series ended there, anyway). After that, I'll move on to a new title and continue the Thursday reading clubs.
Personally, I thought this was maybe the worst issue in Byrne's run. The inking was a huge disappointment, especially after seeing Byrne and Austin the month before. The story is basically just a set-up for 19 and revealing the soon-to-be Talisman (who I LOVED) to the readers.
Not me, I think the circus storyline was worst, a lot worst. I like this issue for the little details, the introduction to Talisman and it did show Byrne was from Calgary (I think), you really had a feel for the city, which is really rare in AF run.Originally Posted by Ryan Maxwell

This is one of my all-time favorite Alpha Flight issues. A great time-travel story, and a fun mix of characters: Shaman, Snowbird, Puck, and Talisman. I always liked the introduction of Talisman, (especially Snowbird's reaction to her). I would have liked to have seen Elizabeth and Narya's relationship developed a bit more.

Looking forward, sadly, to the meeting between Snowbird and Sasquatch. It's been building for several issues and the payoff is stunning.
She's also fat and stupid.
One of Byrne's laziest and saddest issues ever, IMHO.

Well, wait till the next issue. Now that one's a classic!
I didn't have that problem.
Can she fly? I got that she could, or maybe that's a really big leap. (Could somebody ask? I've decided it'd be best if I didn't join the Byrne forum.)

"Experience is what causes a person to make new mistakes instead of old ones."
I think that's a really really big leap allowed cos she's got very muscular and not fat legs. It's all muscle you see, unlike Miss Mass who was prolly a lard arse or not, depending on political correctness.

Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!
That's one of the things I liked about Byrne's run; he played with types like that. Pink Pearl, a classic 'Fat Lady' who can 'fly through the air with the greatest of ease' (jumping or flying; I still think she got pretty high for somebody who couldn't fly and didn't have any hash handy); Wild Child, a clawed, healing-factor psycho Wolverine clone*, who talks like a college professor.
* do NOT take literally!

Prosecutor: Dr. Stone, would you give the court your impression of Mr. Striker?
Dr. Stone: I'm sorry, I don't do impressions... my training is in psychiatry.
