"Marvel.com: Gotta ask, guys: What about Puck?
Fred Van Lente: Let's just say his time in Hell over in Jason Aaron's WOLVERINE has changed him a bit."

Implies Puck will be in the book.

"Fred Van Lente: Let's say there is a major betrayal within Alpha's own ranks; one of the heroes turns traitor to side with the fascists, and you'll never guess who he is."

So it's a male hero, and one of the Alphans themselves.

"Marvel.com: The thrust of Fear Itself is of a mystical nature; how might the magic-based Shaman deal with that? Likewise, will Snowbird's goddess status make her uniquely in tune with the forces Sin has tapped into?"

I ... don't know why I thought that was significant...

"I thought, Homecoming Queen, I could open a yearbook someday and say 'I was there, I went to high school and had friends and for just one minute I got to live in the world.' And then there'd be proof. Proof I was chosen for something other than this. Besides, I look cute in a tiara."

"Fred Van Lente: Let's say there is a major betrayal within Alpha's own ranks; one of the heroes turns traitor to side with the fascists, and you'll never guess who he is."

I'll guess Stephen Harper. Oh wait, he said it would be a hero...

"Marvel.com: The thrust of Fear Itself is of a mystical nature; how might the magic-based Shaman deal with that? Likewise, will Snowbird's goddess status make her uniquely in tune with the forces Sin has tapped into?"

I ... don't know why I thought that was significant...

I do, but I'll never tell.

[Tawmis]

[Le Messor]

I do, but I'll never tell.

Then I will never know.

May 18th.

Yeegads, too long to wait!

I am not too much of a fan of how Sasquatch is drawn, but the rest of the art looks amazing. I wish people would look at Alpha Flight v1 and see how Byrne drew him. More of an Orangutan type look, with arms as long as his body length, and huge ape like feet.

Good news is, from what we've seen, Dale Eaglesham did look at the original before drawing - and the main series is the main thing.
