    ICV2 number are in for AF 1 46,851 at number 20. I guess if the number keep holding up like this they just might make AF an on going title.

    I have now increased my standing order for AF to 3 copies per issues: one for me, two for each of my godsons for Christmas presents. Couldn't think of a better gift to get them, and get new readers at the same time!

    on if fvl has confirmed the numbering on #5 as a ongoing

    Fred Van Lente FVanLente

    No confirmation yet, no. You'd think they'd have to await for the right convention to announce such a thing.

    Being an Alpha fan I have grown pessimistic over the years. I hope I know where FVL comments are going, but am not going to break out the party poppers yet
    Del

    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!

    I am so hopeful that this becomes an on-going series. This incarnation of the Flight is the first one since Vol. 1 that I would really like to see continue... and I was starting to believe that I would never get to say that.
    Vol. 2 brought in new characters that didn't even come close to measuring up to the original team.
    Vol. 3 was... well, thankfully my medication still works enough to allow me to forget vol. 3.
    And the Omega Flight series was not truly Canadian, no matter how they tried to pass it off as one. It was like bringing C.S.I. to film in Toronto for a couple of episodes, bringing in Paul Gross as an RCMP officer to help out on the case, and calling it a Canadian show.
    This new series is amazing in both plot and visuals... they have breathed new life into this team, and it would be a shame to end it after only 8 issues.
    Please note, this is just my opinion. And I'll be the first to admit that opinions are like strings... every yo-yo has one.
    Thanks.
    The Flight Forever !

    Hopeful. But hopes not getting overly high; been down this road too many times before. I'll believe it when i hear it, when i see it, when i hold it in my hands, and when it is too late to say "just kidding!" or "Alpha who?" or "didn't we kill those guys dead yet?". Still 'fondly' remember the ongoing that was downgraded at the last second in Omega flight - if that happens again, it'll be "buh-bye Marvel, you ain't getting my money EVER again!"

    At the same time, if it DOES become an ongoing, then full kudos to Greg and Fred and Dale and the rest of the creative team for a job (and a sell) well done!

    I was sad that Seagle didn't get a chance to really work with the older cast, I really enjoyed that series, and wish I could have seen what he would have been able to do with the older crew.
