    Default Tough to say

    I haven't had money to buy any comics since October. Even if MARVEL does publish another Alpha Flight comic, I don't know if I would be able to buy it, at this time.

    No adds and additional content would be an incentive to eke out $3.99 (plus tax).
    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.

    I agree with Dana. At this point it's most of the original team, or nothing. Anything less would be pointless.
    Me too. I agree one million percent!

    Can I afford 3.99 again? No.

    For Alpha Flight, would I?

    Yes.

    And probably buy 2 copies of each issue for awhile like I did with THOR.

    Axshally, from what we've heard, I suspect it's the editors (or the PtB at Marvel) who need to learn that. And if they had, we'd have had some very different post-1 series.

    I have to be honest here, I wouldn't pay 3.99 for an AF comic. I wouldn't pay 1.99 for an AF comic right now. Becuase the only thing I will get is 22 pages of whoever JQ decided to have write the title make them look more and more like a laughing stock. It seems that that is the only way JQ wants to keep them.

    Now, sure, JQ gave us Omega Flight, but all we got was an amazing mini-series (that was supposed to be ongoing) which was quickly swept under the rug even though it was selling more than several other titles at the time.

    What I will pay $3.99 for is an AF comic AFTER JQ leaves (or whatever price it would be) where the characters are treated with the respect they deserve, and are treated not as the joke of the Marvel U, but as equals to the Avengers or the Fantastic Four.

    As far as members, I think that I would have to agree with many people, that it would have to be the originals (with possibly Arachne because I really liked her as a member).

    JQ has made me swear off Marvel Comics, which is something I never once thought I would ever say. And I will not plunk one more red cent into that company until that man, and his cronies, is gone.

    Where are we going, and why are we in this hand-basket??
