Some people sat they are dead some say they got their ass handed to them? I haven't picked up Avengers, so do tell or is it to early to count them out.

They look pretty dead to me.

But Joe said something is in the works for them. So maybe some survived and will be join by other ex members.


Or maybe this will be NEW Alpha flight and feature guys who aren't even Canadian.

Beta Flight exists already. It's a bit like the West Coast Avengers and the East Coast Avengers (back in the day).

Beta Flight was the training team to become a member of Alpha Flight. Also from the interviews it looks like they are not dead and big things are coming to them.

Also as I said before that isn't even the real Alpha Flight, the real one is in space.

How did the fake Alpha Flight die!?!

King_Mungi
New villian that has all the powers of all the mutants that lost their powers during the House of M.

They were beaten off panel, so we never saw the fight.

called..................... The Collective

Lucid Lui
Not dead.

King_Mungi
They did look pretty badass in the page before they get owned though.

Lucid Lui
Indeed. I'm glad the dialogue can't be read in my sig though. That was terrible.

steverules
Maybe they ain't dead, they are to popular but still Marvel has killed of popular characters in the past.

King_Mungi
Yeah there was actually a HUGE uproar after thier deaths, I don't know how big though.

Also I believe Kid Vulcan is a Collective since I think he got the powers of his former teammates.

Yeah it seems so, even Major Mapleleaf was there.....errr...eh? big grin

I don't see Alpha Fight being killed of that easily so I have a feeling they may still be alive.

King_Mungi
Looks like they are going to be getting their own series again smile

steverules
But is this before or after there supposed death?

After, just stated yesterday. Also Mac has taken worse and surived, hell in Universe X all he had left was his head and spine and he lived. Even took over a new body shortly after.

Here's a quote from Bendis after their "death":

"if they're not dead and the stage is set for a major relaunch that returns them to thier former glory as a premiere team book by an a list creative team after the underwhelming last series...

hmmm... "

I think my favorite quote is from a wolverine issue.

(Puck comes up to wolverine and punches him in the groin, Puck runs away while wolverine is clutching his groin and has an expression of pain on his face).
SASQUATCH: Wolverine I throw you all over the place like a rag doll and nothing but puck comes up and takes you with one punch. (Something like that, but I know that ain't it)
WOLVERINE: Theres no adamantium there.

Funny as hell.

Was the Northstar who was stabbed by Wolverine the real Northstar?

Yep.

xmarksthespot
Then how do the scans show that the dead ones in NA #16 aren't real... since Northstar is in the scans too... confused

King_Mungi
The real ones are still in space, the ones that died which the scans show are from the past. Many of the past Alpha Flight people moved on with their lives, such as Snowbird married Yukon Jack.

Damn confusing Canadians...

I disliked vol.3, but the team of Earthmover, Shaman, Snowbird, Guardian, Puck, Vindicator are in space raising a new generation of Plodex on their homeworld. Puck II and Major Mapleleaf were part of the new team while the real Alpha Flight went into space.
