NRAMA: Speaking of ramifications of Civil War…Alpha Flight?

That's it… just talk about Alpha Flight. You know the questions on people's minds.

MM: Well, the two big questions are whether Cap flees for Canada and whether I'm writing the Alpha Flight spin-off book. To answer the first, no, Cap doesn’t flee for Canada because that's just bloody stupid and completely out of character.

However, there's some truth in the other rumor floated recently about the origins of the new Alpha Flight team. I pitched the idea to Marvel just as they were preparing a new Alpha Flight book (with an excellent writer I really like) and they were incredibly accommodating, working all my plans into their series and launching the whole thing from Civil War.

I will have zero to do with the book beyond that or setting it up (the writer is too good and too smart to need a paunchy Scots drunk looking over his shoulder), but there's a number of books I'm helping set up in this regard. There's about five at present and I'd love to write at least one of them. I don't know if I'll have time, but as well as the revamps of most of the established Marvel books Civil War will also launch several high-profile spin-offs. These books will be very varied and have some creative teams Joe, Tom [Brevoort], Mike Marts, and Axel [Alonso] are putting together right now and it's incredibly exciting.

Joygasm!!!!!!!! ALPHA FLIGHT IS BACK BABY!

Sweet.

man marvel, they screw up the avengers with that cruddy new avengers that could get owned by a group of ninja and now they depower a bunch of mutants (which isn't all bad) but making alpha flight a bunch of non canadians well thats just wrong, really wrong. thats like making captain america dress up as a terrorist and kick uncle sam in tha balls.

since Puck and Guardian were on some civil war poster (which I can't find still) I'd like to think that both them will be on the new team

but marvel has done terrible things to me before

so any word on who will be part of the team, they better change there uniforms because well, if Captain America is on the team and he wears his old costume and starts comparing the days victory to a famous americian battle I'm going to vomit because that would be pure cheeese. have a Canadian based team lead by a guy in the stars and stripes

Indeed, plus they are "growing" superheores as Hull House. That's where they got all their new recruits for the Alpha Flight team in vol.2. So yeah they most likely did, Department H knows everything.

well, there canadian we might not have as many mutants and heroes as the states but we sure know alot about the ones we have

Apparently they can tap into SHIELD and have technology from all over the world, so yeah I bet they do know ever single mutant in Canada and have plans for each. That's what the purpose for Hull House was.

I know tyhis will never happen but I wish Darkhawk would join Alpha Flight

That would be cool, has he done anything since Runaways?

i honestly don't know, but I hope not a b-list of characters like Speedball.

Maybe the Young Avengers could move to Canada. 😖hifty:

theres more of a chance for Darkhawk then Speedball or the young avengers. but both those might work. Darkhawk wouldn't really bring anything new, Guardian can go anything he can do but better except for his extendo claw and endless supply of darkhawk bodies

Personally, Darkhawk could bring plenty to the table if he was written well enough. The whole premise of his character was a good blend of cosmic and street level that nobody had seen before. Way ahead of its time.

like the Ray or Darkhawk all heroes of the ninties with nice helmets that didn't last
