Some Alpha Flight appearances

[Sween McDervish]

I don't know if he's ever said what the inspiration for the name is but from a Canadian perspective, it's most likely that gave the name to Marrina because Smallwood is a famous political name in Newfoundland. Premier Joey Smallwood was responsible for bringing Newfoundland into Canada in 1949.

[Le Messor]

That makes a lot of sense, too!

I wouldn't be surprised if it was one, or the other, or a combination.

Quick question unrelated to Marrina but still a possible appearance. Was skimming thru the latest Iron Man and saw him sneaking around Galactus ship with another armored figure who I think he calls Colin. This person talks about being from Manitou Canada ( I think). Don’t buy Iron Man but the name seemed familiar so I looked it up later. Colin was the real name of Windshear who I vaguely remember being depowered. I think he put together another set of armor. Was wondering if anyone knows if the character is actually Windshear or is it a coincidence?

[Le Messor]

Sounds like it was deliberate; but I haven't read it and don't really know. Did the armour look like Windshear's?

Who wrote it? They might have a history with AF.

Thanks for the info. Makes it easier to decide wether I have to go back thru the issues and buy them. Hadn’t heard of Avro before(but as I said, don’t normally pick up Iron Man)

He is super obscure and only has one appearance prior to this current Iron Man story

[Le Messor]

Which means he's actually more obscure than the Alpha Flight character! That's impressive.

Still on vacation, so limited to my phone (hence being behind on previews) but wanted to flag this up before I can create an article:

Noooooo they don’t ship to Canada. Anyone in the States can help?Edit: I emailed them directly and they may help me out. Huzzah

[Le Messor]

I didn't know you were on vacation, Phil. Hope you're enjoying it!

I saw that comic get a brief write-up in CSN, and I wondered if it'd have Alpha Flight content.
