Well, I have to say that I really enjoyed the Snowbird appearance, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the arc.

However, the Michael Pointer stuff made no sense. None. Whatsoever. I mean, Snowbird's reactions were dead on, and perfect... but there's no way in h-e-double hockey sticks that anyone at H would send POINTER to recruit a former Alphan. It makes no sense, from a logic perspective.

From a storytelling perspective, it works beautifully in showcasing Birdie as a formidable character worthy of great respect. But it still had me shaking my head going "They'd never send Pointer on an assignment like that."

Off-topc: Does anyone know if the Wikipedia article on Alpha Flight has an accurate list of the casualties from The Collective incident?
