I spoke to Frank on twitter and he said he'd been wanting to use her ever since Weapon X.

Only time I could possibly think of was in Marvel Holiday Spectacular Magazine aka Marvel Digital Holiday Special 2008. Rob did a nice review of that issue here. That's where Purple Girl was seen hanging out with the X-Men at Christmas time in San Francisco. I see just about every X-Men in the panels except for Rogue. Maybe Kara and Rogue exchanged Christmas presents off panel?
Poor Kara...Oh well.

ALPHA FLIGHT IS RESURRECTED, LONG LIVE ALPHA FLIGHT!
Though, that reminds me, they were probably both in the same Swimsuit special...Originally Posted by Chris
Give me a moment...
Yep, they were on Monster Island at the same time in v1, #2, 1993. Roge was on the cover, Persuasion inside, and they were both showing a lot of skin... maybe they accidentally touched then?

If anyone wanted the Age Of Apocalypse Omnibus for the the Billy Tan cover with a new image of Wild Child but wasn't prepared to pay the large price, you might be able to get hold of this French reprint that uses the cover for less: http://www.comicvine.com/marvel-gold...3/4000-412014/
Nice! So glad that image is used again. But I do very much reccommend that Omnibus.
Phil this was also released as an official Marvel poster 24x36 for 8 bucks.
Well, at least for those la-di-da high falutin' members who speak French. Those show-offs qui penses qu'ils sont mieux que nous autres.
... oh... yeah... I speak French.

The Omnibus I was referring to is in English. Here is a link to a previous discussion where we discussed it:

And on the masterworks forum, discussed in great detail why you should buy it:

Full disclosure, yes I got a copy just for the dust jacket. So sue me. Actually I'm a sucker for anything AoA so I was likely to get this anyway but the dust jacket sealed the deal!
Oh... I see what happened there..
... I got confused. I thought I was mostly just a carrier.

Because I'm clearly losing the plot; which specific issue was this image taken from?
Was it just in the previews for Vol.2?

Was it one of the last? Why do I think that?
Yes that was a preview image for v2. I believe first published in Marvel Vision #19 (cover date July 1997). Its on page 10 and opened up a 4pg article about the v2 series. If you open up your Alpha Flight v2 issues, you'll also see it inside the gatefold "intro spread" those issues had. I think the image was in all 20 issues and likely popped up in other places as well.
Has anyone got this at all: http://comicbookdb.com/title.php?ID=37057
Interesting! It seems to focus mainly on AF, according to that blurb.
The other day I got a graphic novel: Wolverine: Bloodlust by Alan Davis and Paul Neary. While AF don't appear, they are mentioned, when a barroom brawler type sees Logan fighting creatures in Canada:
"It's a sooperhero! One o' them Alfer Flight!"
(NB: Wolverine probably wasn't a member at the time. It was printed in 1990, and there's no reason to think it took place in the past. And he's wearing his brown costume.)

I seem to remember this being covered somewhere before, but a quick search doesn't bring it up;
Black Knight #1 - Is this Marrina's spirit trapped in the sword or does she actually appear in flashback? Or does she not appear at all?
