Thread: If You Could Build The A Team

  1. #1

    Default If You Could Build The A Team

    A project for those interested.

    If you were in charge of building a super-team to be used within the Alpha Flight maxie-series, who would be on it? This team would be a government-inititated Alpha Flight, a team to serve the government as heroes as well as to hunt down and combat the original Alpha Flight.

    Your only rules, are that the characters (or at least most of them) should have some connection to Alpha Flight, and it should be believeable that these charcaters would be hired as new heroes by the Canadian government. Plus, membership would be limited to between 6 and 8 people.

    Oh yeah...and they cannot be members of the current 8-person Alpha Flight team.

    Enjoy!

    I'll go first!

    1. Guardian (Colin Ashworth Hume, wearing an Epsilon-Black battle suit painted the same colours as Guardian's suit). He would be the team leader.
    2. Killpile (just made her up - she would be a surviving member of the Breed experiments, and therefore feral and vicious, kin to Wild Child).
    3. Bones (from Pink Pearl's Circus).
    4. Nemesis
    5. Earthmover
    6. Raptore (Omega Flight villain)
    7. Daisy (Omega Flight villain)
    8. Depth Charge (one of Puck's old pre-Alpha pals)

    Wha do you think of that team? Would they give OUR Alpha Flight a run for their money?

    1. Guardian - Pointer back in the suit again. The team deserves another chance to kick his ass, and then they can help redeem him.
    2. Talisman - Liz Twoyoungmen, ostensibly hunting down Alpha flight due to feelings of resentment toward her estranged father, but actually a total mole for the good guys
    3. Double Trouble - remember, there are no bad characters, just horrible, horrible 90's costume design.
    4. Daisy - every team needs a brick
    5. Scramble - you can't keep a good source of body-horror down.
    6. Flex - because all the rest of Wolverine's kids are in books these days, so why not this one too?
    7. Murmur - I never really liked her much anyway...

    Double Trouble - I like it! (looks like a Liefeld design)

    I really wanted to put Thor Girl on my team, but couldn't think of a way to force her onto it (Beta Ray Bill already proved that forcing mythical Asgardian types onto a Flight team just don't work). Komodo would have been cool, too.

    I was thinking this look from the Northstar series. The one you posted isn't so bad -- at least I can see how that would stay on.

    Default The "A"' Team

    Glad to know that WEAPON P.R.I.M.E. is appreciated. They've gotta do something with "Killspree" though; that just won't do as a govt-sanctioned operative. and the design....

    They should be given a chance to strut their stuff again. As the "A" Team, I like:

    (1) TigerStryke
    (2) Double Trouble
    (3) Yeti
    (4) I like Agent K, but Mr. Farnum or Mr. Gentry might have some skills, too
    (5) LYNX
    (6) a new CYBER
    (7) EARTHMOVER
    ( The Constrictor or The Shroud

    I think this group would give AF a run for its money, before joining them to fight any even bigger threat...like a formidible ZODIAC or a new SQUADRON SINISTER.

    Okay, I admit it!

    There was a "slight" typo in the title of this post. The word "The" should have been omitted. My bad. Should have read "If you could build a team"

    NOt "The A-Team". Sigh...
