Sasquatch vs. Hercules
Alpha Flight #101-After the Avengers and Alpha FLight beat Galactus, Hercules wants to have some fun so he decks Sasquatch. Sasquatch takes two powerful blows before he even knows what was going on. He still gets up not phased and still believed he could end it.

Sasquatch vs. Alpha Flight
Alpha Flight #45-After Heather had to kill Snowbird to stop Pestilence, he was free to possess a new body. His choice....Snowbird's Sasquatch form. Boch who usually commands Box just was given new legs and a new body by Lionel Jeffries that's why he looks a lot different than his other apperances.

Feats shown:
-Walter escapes the Void, using Smart Alec's body
-Aurora does a flashbang on Sasquatch
-Purple Girl fails to command Sasquatch to do her bidding, but later on in the series she can. So either that other scene which I even posted in this thread is an error or this one is. I believe the other scene is.
-Walter in Box form admits that Box is not half as strong as Sasquatch, and the form Walter was in in the past and this current form could press 85 tons. So that proves the handbooks thats state Walter to be just 70 tons is false.

King_Mungi ...........

Box v.1
The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe v2 - Deluxe Edition #02-Here is the proof, the bio states near the bottom of the page in the second column he can press 85 tons. In the comics it was said he is only half the strength of Sasquatch.

King_Mungi ...........

Puck vs. The Incredible Hulk
Alpha Flight #29-This is classic Puck who was just a dwarf with peak human strength and body. He does really well against the brute. Anyways Alpha Flight did this experiment hoping to find a new body for Walter, but in the end they did but it was the Hulk. So instead of killing Bruce Banner, Walter sacrificed his life so Banner could life. However, Hulk was on a toe-line and Alpha Flight reeled him in thinking it was Walter. So when Hulk attacks an unsuspecting Box, the only one to act is Puck. The rest of the team is preoccuiped with their own things. Just to note, Box armor does not weigh multiple tons.

Feats shown:
-Puck's agility avoiding Hulk's attack
-Puck's intelligence figuring out which Hulk this is
-Puck's heart taking on a person who is bigger and stronger than he is
-Puck saves Shaman's life

the "not half as strong" was most likely walter's comment as it pertains to the original box, which is the version i believe he first "inhabited." that bio also states that the original box could only heft 40 tons, which isn't quite half of 85. seems to make sense to me.

Nope, the Box Walter was in was the one Jeffires and Bochs made after the first one was destroyed by Guardian [Alpha Flight #12]. The Box Walter was in was the upgraded version that could fly, do blasts and all that jazz [Alpha Flight #24]. The Box that Sasquatch went in one more time was the final version of Box until Jeffries in a few issues transmutes it into his own personal design [Alpha Flight #49]. The Box version Sasquatch fighting was indeed the 85 ton Box.

Guardian II/Vindicator II
Alpha Flight #58-After Jeffries sets off a nuclear explosion to destroy Tundra. Jeffries makes the scrap metal into a spaceship and fly away from the blast area. The process jolted him and he was in computer mode now ignoring anything else. He was flying around the stars at warp speed, until Alpha Flight helped him to regain his control. Then later Gobyln senses Dreamqueen has her sister, so she freaks out and wants to save her. She eventually mind-melds with Box by accident and they are transported to Liveworld. Everyone is out of commision, and they are heading for a floating rock. So Heather bolts off blasts a whole through Jeffries ship, and her force of blast redirects the mutliple ton ship from a collision. Well they eventually collide into another rock anyways.

Box v.4/Madison Jeffries
Alpha Flight: Annual #2-Alpha Flight is sent up north, because scientists found dinosaurs and cavemen. Many were killed, so AF is sent to investigate. Jeffries prior transmutes his armor into a airplane, and then suddenly a storm hits and short-circuits him out. Heather then flys out fighting flying dinosaurs and is eventually knocked out from lightening. Which doesn't make sense with future scans I will post, but if that didn't happen they would have no story. Well really, her suit was still working they just said she forgot how to use it. Anyways Box crashlands and sees Sasquatch battling a T-Rex. So he transforms the wreckage into a robotic T-Rex and kills the real one. In attempt to rescue Heather who fell into the Savage Land, Box animates himself into a drill. Transformers eat your hearts out 🙂

Each member of Alpha Flight could have their own respect thread. I don't know I might still do it.

Also what feat would you say here impressed you the most?

streekz King of Otherworld

all feats impressed me, i didnt no that much bout them but they have got a nice balanced team. dont understand why canadians get so much stick?? sasquatch rules, like guardian reminds me of Cap britain, also weapon omega luks cool.
wud like to do repect thread for cap britain but aint got much info on his feats.. hope they involve him more in stories in future...

Is guardian still alive?? who leads the team now?? and wot is the teams roster at the moment??

King_Mungi ...........

Alpha Flight vs. The Great Beasts
Alpha Flight #55-Walter is having a identity crisis and the Great Beasts are going to use that to their advantage. Not in their full power, but still powerful enough. Few errors, there are 6 Great Beasts the two not shown are Ranaq and Kolomaq. Manikin's physhic death at the hands of Somon should have stuck, but in the next issue he was fine. Only a person like Talisman can bring them back from the dead as said when they first encountered the Great Beasts. Anyways none of the Great Beasts die, just sent back to their dimension. If they were at full strength as Shaman said all their actions would just be a delay at best.

Feats shown:
-Walter doesn't give into Somon's influences
-Guardian II using a plasma funnel to redirect Tolomaq into a snow back so ice falls on Kariooq trapping him
-Guardian II using a plasma funnel dispersed Tolomaq
-Gobyln switchs places with Purple Girl and Gateway
-Sasquatch crushes Somon's skull while he is distracted killing Manikin
-Jeffries absorbs Bedlam's base into his armor making a massive version of him [in a short time].
-Jeffries goes toe to toe with Tundra
-Jeffries has become so big, Alpha Flight could use him as their base
-Jeffries destroys part of his mass creating a huge explosion, believe to be nuclear.
-Alpha Flight survives due to while Jeffries was destroying his mass, he made a spaceship and blasted off of the planet with the team inside.

Unknown, some think they will be killed off some think it will just be a name change to Avengers North. Since there is going to be a second Avengers book coming out soon.

Guardian and Puck also appeared on the Civil War cover so they may survive.

streekz King of Otherworld

No nothing as of yet, many people are still wondering what is even going to happen to them in NA #16.

streekz King of Otherworld

Northstar
Northstar #4-I have no clue what happened in the earlier issues, since this is all I have read from the mini. Anyways Arcade makes Northstar go around the world battling various people and go to various places. He is near exhausted here, but still keeps on fighting. The Quebec terminal they start in is key to Northstar's history when he worked for the FLQ. They wanted to kill people at the bus terminal, so Nortstar turns an act of terrorism to heorism. At this point he is running on empty.

Feats shown:
-Northstar breaks Mister Nice's arm with one kick
-Northstar starts beating the team, even takes out Bars respirator before he can do anything
-Northstar mentions he has an accelerated metabolism that can heal wounds quickly. Didn't know the twins had a healing factor.
-Guardian II takes out that lion guy with one blast
-Guardian II takes out Bars and that girl with one blast
-Northstar takes out Short Fuse, even though he is exhausted
-Northstar beats Arcade's 24 hour challenge.
