New Avengers... 19, I think. It was some postal worker called Michael Pointer or somesuch who was endowed with the powers of every mutant depowered in House of M. He went on a crazed rampage, unable to control the power, and wiped out Alpha Flight pathetically easily. But I think he's joining Alpha/ Omega Flight...

Yet if you look at the actual power of the members of Alpha Flight and saw how they got owned, one has to ask how the hell did the street level New Avengers fair so well? PIS. Oh well it resulted in a new Alpha/Omega series so can't fully complain.
I thought Henry Clayton drew a good Sasquatch too, although his style is a bit different.
Oh well, as terrible as Lobdell's Alpha Flight was, because of his stupid plots, the real Alpha Flight is still out there. The team that died were only temporal duplicates. Aside from Major Mapleleaf and Puck II
Even Omega Flight editor has said the temporal copies are still around and oddly the only character of the original team not to get a temporal copy was Sasquatch...and he lived. Hmm...
Good old Sentry throws the energy into the sun....stupid New Avengers
Did you read Lobdell's Alpha Flight? The temporal copies were the ones on earth that were killed. The real Flight is out in space repopulating the Plodex homeworld.
I wish they'd give us a checkup on Flex, he was my favorite new character from volume 2. The writer was going to make him Wolverine's son. Don't know if I'd still want that slant to it, but I liked his character.
Yeah I read it, and handbook entries revealed it was the real Alpha Flight who returned from the Plodex homeworld that got killed. (Guardian entry). However, the copies are still around and were said to be brought her for a reason, so maybe that was it.
Yep, and he is one of the few mutants who still have his powers since M Day. Wolverine's son that was revealed in Origins is shit, I wished they would have used Flex as he was supposed to be.
Yeah, because of X-23 and shitty Daken, I don't know what I'd want Flex to be his son now, but having him be the son of another super hero wouldn't be bad.
Heck, maybe Sabretooth's son, how much different from his father could he be if that were the case? Although Sabretooth is one of the characters that's just kind of boring. Oh yay, he's an evil version of Wolverine, that's cool, right?
uuuuuh...I hate Daken with a passion and he only just appeared...uuuh. Also Hull House ie. Legacy Mutants were all mutants born from other famous mutants, Murmur was apparently the neice of Purple Man, Flex was suppose to be Wolverine's son, Radius was Unus' son, etc.
That would be something, but Flex is to obscure and not exactally popular to make more of apperances in other comics sadly Like when was the last time we even saw him? waaaay back in vol.2 and no where since.
Unfortunately you're right. Although I thought we were supposed to get a spotlight on some of the mutants left over after HOM? Instead 198 featured like 5 mutants.
Flex, especially if they gave him some important family ties could become an interesting character to longtime X-readers.
And, I don't care if the handbook said that the real Alpha Flight was back. It didn't happen on page, no one wrote it, so it didn't actually happen. They're out there, don't give up hope, Alpha Fans!
