    I like the fact that different artists have their own unique styles sometimes though.
    It'd be boring if Byrne was the only person to have ever drawn Sas.

    Haha, perfect. Yes, Byrne's Sas is the best.

    That being said, I need to make sure I get this book. Had no clue it was coming out! This preview is fantastic.

    Welcome Major Mountie. Nice to see you jumping straight in. If you get the urge there's a Introduce yourself thread in the general discussion forum. Nice to meet you.

    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!

    The art is amazing. I am so looking forward to this. With all the *crap* that Marvel is publishing, surely the Flight will fly this time. What's not to like!

    I've mentioned somewhere recently that popular ≠ good. Sadly, that works both ways...

    I usually phrase it that I've never noticed a correlation between quality and popularity. I've seen things that are popular and good, and things that are popular and bad. I've seen things that are unpopular and bad, and things that are unpopular and good.

    So, even if Alpha Flight stands out as the best title Marvel is publishing now-- Banshee, why are there only three digits in the Grissom's call-sign? NCC 638? I've never seen a starfleet vessel with less than four! (That wasn't an NX-, at least...)

    I agree with Mik....Look at Captain Britain & MI13...Fantastic reviews and didn't it get nominated for/or win some award(s)? As Mik stated, Good does not equal popular or vice versa.

    Stupid question. Does anyone know why Marvel does not have it listed in their May releases? I found the dates for AF #1 in June and #2 in July (second Wednesday of each month), but not the 0.1 issue in May. (http://marvel.com/comic_books/calendar/thisWeek)

    Because the link you posted only displays comics published from May 1st thru 7th?

    I'd imagine it's just an oversight.

    The solicit and press-release have it for May 18th, as do Diamond still.

    I miss Diamond Lil. Hopefully Hercules knew her and got that wrong when he "fixed" everything too...

    Maybe the universe was so messed up with the afterlife being blasted open, that maybe she slipped out (along with others)...Who knows? It might be awesome if she turned up as a member of the government's team hunting Alpha.
