    Note the use of the word 'orchestrated' meaning they were playing around behind the scenes when AIM did its thang.

    I know technically AIM would only need a few cells to clone her, but it was implied (in that back up) her body regenerated itself - which would mean it was dug up. Also, how did they get those cells?

    Wayne: Ah yes, it's a lot like "Star Trek: The Next Generation". In many ways it's superior but will never be as recognized as the original.

    I liked Tieri's work on Wolverine a lot.
    He acknowledged Wolvie's history with AF and was generally respectful to the characters without changing much of their status quo. There were some nice little cameos.

    Yes, but perhaps the gods put a new version of her body there for AIM to find?

    Are you suggesting they gave her a new body...off-panel?

    Why not? Everything else happens off-panel to the characters.

    That being said, next time we see Alpha Flight, i fully expect that Puck will be there with them. It'll just be another thing to add to the list of endless back-stories about Puck that need to be told at some point. (Puck seriously needs his own series, to tell his past adventures!)

    Don't say that while I'm reading The Neverending Story!

    Are you near the end of it? Not that it would be possible to ever finish the neverending story...

    Neverending Story:
    It just keeps going on and on...
    I'm in Chapter 'W'. (I've read it a few times, but the last was years ago.)

    Speaking of W, issues of Wolverine with Alpha Flight (starting at the earliest Tieri issue I just found, which is not #s 142-143; they're by Erics Larsen and Stephensen):
    171-176, 179, 180. (After I found the earliest, I just copied the numbers off the gallery.)
    First Class #5

    Xander, sorting books: I don't get your crazy system.
    Giles: It's called the alphabet.

    Maybe a Puck mini with the rest of Alpha off panel. I know, I know, dead horse right?

    That horse is clawing its way out of Hell at Wolverine's side as we type.

    Maybe that is Major Mapleleaf's horse...come to think of it, what did happen to him? Is he on the Avengers Pets Squad?

    He faded into limbo (so, yeah, it's probably him) and was not in the Pet Squad.

    I actually didn`t have a problem with that horse. It was sort of a cool idea.
