    Default Questions for Tom Brevoort

    Over at Tom Brevoort's blog he's opened up the floor to questions. I and a couple others have posted AF questions, but maybe if there are a lot more of them it will show Marvel we fans are still out here and still wanting a new series.

    Doesn't Mr Breevort want us all dead, castrated or both?

    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    Then it'll be fun to fill up his inbox with AF questions, no?

    Won't it tell him how to track us down...?

    Speaking of tracking down, my brain fizzled, and I couldn't find anything that looked like answers on his site. Or is it just a place for questions?

    Way too much optimism.
    Way too much faith in Marvel.

    I'm not expecting Tom to say there's a new AF in the works, just interested in what he has to say about the AF questions posted on his blog.

    So nothing, I suppose, yet?

    just interested in what he has to say about the AF questions posted on his blog.
    I would guess, either
    (a) he says nothing about these questions at all, or
    (b) he makes some comments about how if we want a new Alpha Flight comic, that we have to vote for one with our wallet.

    Here's what Tom had to say...

    > Awhile back (so long ago I forget when exactly) we were told there would be some news about Alpha Flight. When will this come to pass? >

    As soon as we have some actual news to impart.

    >2. Why is there such negativity towards Alpha Flight at Marvel?

    Posted by Legerd on 2009-05-24 21:55:23>

    I don't think there is any negativity towards Alpha Flight at Marvel really, Legerd. It's simply a property that we haven't been able to crack how to sell to a wide audience. And that's really been the case almost from the start. When Alpha first appeared in UNCANNY X-MEN, they were these really cool new characters, but somehow once they got their own series, their mystique quickly vanished, and they became just another team of costumed do-gooders running around slightly north of all the others. Even Alpha mastermind John Byrne has admitted that there wasn't much to them when he came up with them to fight the X-Men, and that he was sort of making it up as he went along during his tenure on the series. But all that aside, there is something cool and interesting to Alpha Flight, we just haven't found the right team and the right approach to tap into it yet.
