User blog:Johnnybravo44/New Alpha Flight book... yes or no?

Hello, this is Johnnybravo here with my weekly blog, roughly at 5 o’clock each week. Basically I’ll be talking about a new event, a certain character, or another new story from Marvel, or possibly be asking a question, or maybe even a rant (sorry Puck!). So keep your eyes peeled each Friday!

In 2006, tragedy struck. The House of M was over and something terrible happened to mutants everywhere. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I’m sorry. The powers of the depowered went together into the Collective, and it was pissed on a mission. Anything in it’s way would die, and did.

The tragedy became worse when Alpha Flight was shown. Their first time since the end of the disaster of the third volume. For some reason, Puck was apparently leading them (and I’m still not sure if that was a joke or not). Either way, boom. They all died.



Well, except Sasquatch. Who would later go to the Omega Flight book which was a rip off because Marvel lied to us on it.. But enough of that.

In May, there will be a new Alpha Flight book. However, it’s only going to be eight issues. And it starts off from Fear Itself.

The second volume was… alright. The third was… annoying.

So do I have high hopes for this then? Actually… yes. Chaos War: Alpha Flight #1 was great. It transitioned the Alpha Flight into a new beginning, with new troubles and whatnot.



I really only have two problems with this new series: 1. Puck won’t be in it (or at least not in the first arc). 2. It’s only eight issues. What the hell is going to happen after then? Where will they all go? Will we see more mini-series with them? One can only hope. I am a decent Alpha Flight fan. Not as hardcore as others I'm sure, but still.

If anyone has specific opinions on the book, I'd love to hear them! :)
