    Default Contest of Champions

    As I write this, I don't have the Contest of Champions. But I was looking at the Official Handbook entry and it says there is an Australian 'Talisman'.
    Who is she?

    Ahh, the original Talisman...

    Created specially for CoC and hasn't appeared much since: http://www.comicvine.com/talisman/4005-14541/

    Very similar to Gateway. Or vice-versa I suppose.

    The thing we haven't covered yet is, 'she' is a 'he'.

    Hey! Australian should form its own super team...Australia Flight!

    Featuring Talisman, an aborigine who uses his mystic bull-roarer and knowledge of dreamtime to teleport!

    Gateway, an aborigine who uses his knowledge of dreamtime and mutant powers to...teleport!

    Dreamguard (appeared in Force Works in the mid-90's), an aborigine who uses his connection to dreamtime to...sigh...teleport.

    And Manifold (the current Avenger), an aborigine who uses his powers to teleport...a lot!

    Yeah, we Aussies just love to teleport. Do it all the time! Teleportin' all the way.

    At today's petrol prices, what better choice is there?

    Didn't pay close enough attention to the entry, the first time (obviously); the caption indicated which character was 'Talisman'.
    Once upon a time, they exploded from the pages of The X-Men. For a moment, they were "Canada's answer to The Avengers."

    They were ALPHA FLIGHT....

    ...once upon a time.

    That isn't that obvious when you don't have the book. You would've got away with it if it hadn't been for your meddling self!
