I've now heard the podcast... I was right before about the team having been together before (the one he lists in Uncanny 120-121, AF #s 1-4 and 12).
I don't like the 'evil government' idea.
The "Alpha Flight is a dead brain cell" comment is hilarious in context (and for those who haven't listened to the 'cast, it is not a dis!)

Buffy: My brain isn't really functioning on the higher levels. It's pretty much fire bad, tree pretty.
Giles: Understandable. Well, when it's working again congratulate it on a good campaign. You did very well.
Buffy: Thank you. I will.
Giles: I ah... I managed to ferret this out of the wreckage. Now, it may not interest you, but... (pulls out a high school diploma)
Giles: I'd say you earned it. There is a certain dramatic irony that's attached to all this. A synchronicity that borders on... on predestination, one might say.
Buffy: Fire bad, tree pretty.

Heather also covered Northstar's back in the Northstar series, and I am sure that the support he received from his teammates when he adopted Joanne made him somewhat appreciative of the other Alphas.
There may also be a factor of appreciating your old friends more when some of them have dies, at least temporarily.

I like that they said in the podcast that other characters from throughout Alpha's history will show up and some of the appearances may surprise us. I am really looking forward to this.
So, I've just got back from a con over here in the UK, and whilst at it I had a quick chat with Ben Oliver, artist of the 0.1 issue.
He got the script on Thursday and is starting work on it tomorrow!
I got a quick sketch of Sasquatch from him, the first time he's drawn him, so I'll try and post that up at some point over the next few days.
For now I need to detox & sleep!
I think the fact that he has a steady relationship helps to, as I think Aurora alludes to in NX #2.
I always thought that a lot of Northstar's tension was that he had feelings for Walter originally and that was part of why he hated Aurora being with him.
That was just my original take on reading it though, I'm likely wrong.
You are taking sleep over sharing a new pic of Sas with us !?!?
Oh man, I feel so rejected...

Right, I've got time for a blurry photo of the sketch which was just a quick sketch without research or reference.
I like it a lot. Not Byrne-esque but a definite improvement on a lot of artists' versions. I'm looking forward to #0.1! Not that I wasn't anyway, mind....
I've also put a new one from Transformers legend Andrew Wildman over on my site.

Since it was done without reference, I'm impressed.
In #24, the Artificer "needs" "one who loves him, one who hates him and one of great power" to rescue Walter's soul. While this quickly proved to be a trap, why would he bait a group of rescuers with one who hates him unless he could sense that hatred? I always figured he hated Aurora being with Walt because he hated Walt.
Mantlo's later confession by Northstar to Wanda of "preferring the man you were" as an eye candy factor, not lust.
Think about it. In their high school years, JP was a self-aware gay kid and Walt was a jock and a bully. It's very reasonable that JP would truly hate him.
