Canadian heroes are death fodder once again.

So much for this Omega Flight. At least they're getting killed on panel this time. They need to learn to stay out of all Avengers books. Sigh.

a Wendigo that's dead and there's plenty of them to go around.

And I'm glad that's definitely not Jeffries

True. We also learned in Incredible Hulk 11 that there are plenty of Sasquatch to go around too. I will remain calm until the actual issue comes out then

Here's my response I did on another board. The title of the thread was called "Avengers + Dead Canadian superheroes = $$$". I said "Meh! Just a random robot and a Wendigo. Technically you can't kill a Wendigo, but sure that will be ignored (which isnt that big of a deal). Since basically three of the 4 characters are brand new (pretty sure this is an AR) cant say there will be much impact." and another replied which a pretty bang on response...."Yeah Canucks not named Wolverine should really avoid Avengers books."....bang on, well the more recent Avengers books

[Phil]

Well, I know it's a month off still, but is anyone interested in reviewing this issue when it comes out?

If you can't get to a store on the day a legal Digital Copy can be sent your way.

Hopefully, some of them make it out alive...I'd like to see the list of Canadian characters grow and perhaps call more attention to Alpha Flight.

Agreed!

[Legerd]

Help me out here, is this an alternate reality, or 616? And why isn't AF getting involved no matter what universe this is set in?

[-K-M-]

I think it is an alternate reality to be honest. Not 100% sure though

[Chris]

This takes place in 616. During the events from the first three issues of the Avengers, 7 bio-weapons from Mars landed across the Earth, one of them hitting Canada. In Avengers 4, Captain Marvel mentions that the Canadian government will be sending Omega Flight to contain it. Also in issue 4, we see A.I.M. and the Avengers fighting over a bio-weapons site in the Savage Land.

As to why the Canadian government is sending a new Omega Flight, instead of Alpha Flight, I have no idea.

Also one of the bio-weapons landed in Perth. Maybe Alpha Flight is going to visit Australia instead and say "hello" to Le Messor?

[Phil]

And why isn't AF getting involved no matter what universe this is set in?

Because this time around AF are too relevant to just be killed off, so characters have been created for the sole reason of sacrificial lambs.

Well...

...last time out, our heroes were killed off-panel.

So, perhaps Marvel has "upped the ante", and will tell us, 6 months or so from now, that AF died, off panel, between the last page of Avengers 9 and the cover of Avengers 10 (without ever being seen or mentioned!).

[Phil]

I think that even after Vol.4 being 'not-extended' AF are in a better position and held in more regard than they were after the end of Vol.3 so I doubt they'll be killed off, on-panel or not.
