Say Goodbye to Alpha Flight...

Yeah, false alarm.

The solicit for the issue calls it the "last ride of Alpha Flight" or something along those lines. But nobody knows what is actually going to happen yet.

That bit about it being confirmed that Sasquatch is going to be the only survivor is bs.

Spoiler:
Actually that wouldn't be too bad, since if you look at the spoiler I brought over, he's the only of the original team, the others are time displaced duplicates.

The Original Alpha Flight is somewhere off in space.

Sasquatch founded a new Alpha Flight with different members.

Sasquatch also went back in time and got the original team in the past and pulled them to the present. They stayed in the present. So, if they were grabbed from the past and stayed in the present then it would be safe to say that they also avoided ever travelling off into deep space in the first place. So technically, there is only two teams. The original team, and the one Sasquatch founded.

Jeez, Alpha Flight is all kinds of messed up.

I refuse to believe Bendis would kill off a whole team. Especially the team that's consisting of the more popular Alpha Flight members. He can't do it.

Quick, someone reassure me...

Except the way the timeline works, by going into the past her went into an alternate timeline, since the MU works quite the same as Back to the future.

I guess since you posted that without the spoiler tag I don't really need to either. 😖

Another thing that concerns me:

Bendis is predictable. Seriously. You can see the endings of the stories a mile away. Remember when they were advertising that "One Avenger will die!". And Hawkeye DID die. So if it says this Alpha Flight's "final battle" than it's most likely gonna be that way...

He killed Hawkeye, Vision, and destroyed a thirty plus year tradition of the Avengers.

Hell yes he would kill a team. The man is so full of himself...

I don't feel as if I spoiling anything if the story has already been out for a very long time. 🙂

Marty had to go back into the past so he wouldn't be erased from the future.

So wouldn't Alpha Flights trip into space, among other things, be erased since they were ripped from the past and brought into the present?

I'm a realist not an optimist.... 😛

Altering the past that drastically cause it to divert in to alternate timelines. . .

It can possibly be like what happened to the Freedom Fighters in IC...

I wouldn't be surprised if Bendis sees the death of Alpha Flight as shockvalue.

Not like he hasn't done it before...

And come now. You all know life and death is like a woman's period. They come and go. If Alpha Flight dies they'll be back in a week or two...

It's the principle, they shouldn't even be killed off from the start, and I still can't find that post.

The solicit said, 'Alpha Flight... in their FINAL BATTLE'

It better be, or I will raise some hell.

I wouldn't blame you.

It's possible then, that only the

Spoiler:
clones? Or whatever they are

are killed. Not the originals.

If he does kill them I will prove once and for all, not all Canadians are nice.

Spoiler:
Huge problems if it's the team that Shaman brought from the past to the present. Since Northstar, Aurora and even Snowbird were brought back...yet where are they?

From the solicitations i assume it's going to go down something like this;

This "Collective" turns up somewhere in Canada. Alpha Flight are first on the scene. They get absolutely massacred. Then, maybe a couple of issues later, the New Avengers come and save the day and beat the collective. Stupid. Why? NA would get their asses handed to them by Alpha Flight (excluding Sentry). But having another team massacred is just a ploy to make the threat seem more badass and a waste of great characters.

That's just a theory anyway. Hopefully it's much more entertaining than that. And there are no dead Canadians involved.

If Shaman dies i'll be really pissed.

I like Puck myself. 🙁

That's probably what's gonna happen.

I actually don't think there was an Alpha Flight character i didn't like. From the original series anyway. There were some thoroughly annoying people in the reboot team. I haven't read vol 3 so i dunno about those characters.

Puck 2 is cool, but yes if written to what they actually can do they would murder NA. Shaman could possibly even take out Sentry.

Shaman's cool. Always been my fav member.

Northstar!! Until Millar killed him, revived him, and made him all crazy....

Hopefully he'll get better.
