alpha flight returns in chaos war!!!

[mos_def]

If the AF team does come back, then wouldnt you think Madison would be mad cuz the others came back and Lil died...or at least so far she is unless she is making an appearance but just not on the cover.

I wouldnt want it, but I would be more at peace if they came back to save Canada/world and then their spirits disappeared.

Im thinking cloning by the Master. Maybe the Master needs ALpha Flight for something he did wrong

[DIGGER]

I don't think Talisman is going to turn evil. I just think with her being the binder of spirits she may believe that she has the best chance to save herself after the others are alive. After all she can command spirits so why not her own. And please don't let the Alphans be brought back as clones. If it is the Master (gotta be) perhaps he just repaired the Flight after their runin with X!?n like what happened to him in his origin story from Vol.1. I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER CLONE OF MAC OR ANYONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER. And Sypes, might I suggest taking in with you some issues of The Avengers so that you won't be confronted with a dilemma when you haven't got a square to spare.

I don't know if McCann will take into account (or even if he knows about it) In Namor's past series, The Sub-Mariner released Marrina's trapped soul from the Black Knight's ebony blade (Namor discovered that when he "killed" her with it, it ate her soul, as it eats all the souls of those killed by it)....But I believe she said as her spirit dissipated , that she was at peace...or something to that effect (I could be recalling it inaccurately). So yes, she may not be happy in returning to life.

My thought was it may be Mac, since he's been jerked back and forth so much by death.

Now do you mean, you think Elizabeth will be portrayed as a villain or Marrina?

I meant Marrina. It's hard to say who we were seeing after the ebony blade scenario. I always wanted Marrina to come back, so I assumed that her soul returned to her body, which we saw the Master keeping in stasis. Of course, it could be argued that her soul didn't return and that was why it was so easy to change her to the raging beast that Namor ended up killing. But then that doesn't explain him "reaching" her when he held her and dragged her to the trenches to kill her.
Ugh. Why couldn't they have left her alone until someone wanted to use her in a positive way? Hopefully McCann can restore her to her former sweet glory...

Not bad. Slightly cartoony (which I do not count as a bad thing) and very expressive. I think this could be a good fit.

Again, needing to post these thoughts.

First, a quote from Mr McCann - "What about the Alphans in Space? Repeat that question 5 times and you’ll reach the appropriate answer. Seriously, though, you’ll want to read it to see where exactly Shaman, Vindicator, and Guardian have been and how Marrina has joined them."

Yes, where HAVE Shaman, Vindicator, and Guardian been? If in space, then how did Marrina join them? If NOT in space, then why mention it...?...?

Second, this is Chaos War - it is a GOD War, folks. Wrap your heads around it, the Great Beasts will be back, and AF is gonna lay the smack-down on them! Either that, or Alpha Flight is gonna JOIN with the Great Beasts (wow! wouldn't that tick off Snowbird?) to lay the ultimate, beyond-death smackdown on this Chaos dude...

Or...maybe they weren't dead after all. Only some of them are, the rest were the temporal copies. Maybe the Marrina promised is really Mar, all grown up! Maybe Alpha returns from space, just in time to help save the Earth!

I have read plenty of interviews with McCann, he is a die hard fan of the original team. I fully expect this return to be done the right way, no clones, no cyborgs, no men in womens bodies. Just a return of the originals the way Byrne had them.

[Sypes]

I am clearly a novice at the whole Comics love, compared to most of you here! But I'm getting there... avengers = no good?

I don't think Talisman is going to turn evil. I just think with her being the binder of spirits she may believe that she has the best chance to save herself after the others are alive. After all she can command spirits so why not her own. And please don't let the Alphans be brought back as clones.

I doubt it (since McCann seems to be such a big fan of the Byrne years), but one never knows.

I like it...He's very good.

He only mentioned it because people bring up the temporal copies every time resurrecting Alpha is talked about and he wanted to discount it as a possibility since it's pretty ridiculous and convoluted.

Ohhhh, NOW I know his work. He did some Agents of Atlas back-ups in Herc as well as the hilarious Prince of Power mini starring Amadeus Cho. And one of my fave Herc arcs too! Alpha Flight is in great hands.

After reading the articles on Comic Book Resources and Newsarama, anyone else beginning to suspect the villain of the comic will be Puck? While I think Puck as a hero-turned-villain doesn't work, it seems like that is what the interview is hinting. The author made it clear that Alpha Flight creates it's own villains. Add to that the fact that Puck won't be on the team. Finally think about an original Alpha Flight reunion without Puck.

Seems like that's what he's going for to me. I don't like the idea of Puck as a villain, so I hope I'm wrong.

Thoughts?

I don't think Puck will be the villain. I figure he's in Hell as he killed a few people before joining AF (what mercenary and secret service agent in comics wouldn't?). Remember, Puck is likely helping Wolverine in his book in Hell. I doubt they'll take Puck out of Hell to fight him. Likely he's not on the team as he's the only one in Hell and can't be reached by the 'devil'.

If Jimenez/Wells/McCann is doing an AF ongoing Puck can return from Hell with Wolverine. In a week we just may find out a bit more about Puck, Talisman, Marrina, all of those favorites. I don't want too big of a team but who survives the Chaos War event is unknown.

Wouldn't it be nice if at FanEXpo we got an image of the new AF post-Chaos War, in shadow, just so we can speculate until true images are released? Ah, to dream....

Shadows of Omega Flight past?
