Has anyone seen the issue of X-MEN (Unlimited?) where Wolverine confronts a drunk, misshapen Puck?
(My apologies if this has already been asked or mentioned...)

M****L dosen't want a horde of angry Canadians storming across the boarder to invade their offices and beat them over the heads with rolled up copies of Alpha Flight #1.

Be nice to see Alpha Flight given another shot. you never know what a team can do with a book. Even the unlikeliest characters can work out.

Millar is obviously a man of unquestionably good taste.

"upon reading the week 36 of JQ interview at Newsarama, I stumbled when reading that his words "dead is dead" were wrongly understood, as he meant something different (and from there putting 5/6 reasons never heard before for which this won't apply). I call this a (rather late, and bad) back-pedalling."
It seems to me that JoeQ got the full-bore corporate newspeak indoctrination after his first year or so as E-I-C. One of the fundamental tennents of that is "Never, ever, ever concede that you're wrong or that you're changing your position on something".

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but I came across this quote er, shall we say lying in the gutter apparently from Mark Millar regarding reviving Alpha Flight...
"I'm really using Marvel Civil War as a means of re-establishing some of the greatest, sadly missing characters from the MU. I'm very old school, despite being only thirty-six, and put this down to reading Marvel UK reprints as a kid instead of the books you guys were reading in the 80s and 90s. Thus, the period I have the biggest affection for really runs from Stan and Jack up to classic John Byrne. I'm reading all the Byrne FFs right now and loving them to pieces. I just love the Alpha Flight stuff I'm reading too and plan to end MCW with the possibility of a very good, very high profile Alpha Flight book spinning out of the series."

And we'll know it's good, because he said so!

I'll believe it when I see it. I was so excited about the last Alpha Flight relaunch and when it finally dropped, man, did it smart...

I believe Millar said he wouldn't be writing the new Alpha Flight, and that there might not even be a new series, but that he was leaving them in a great position to be luanched in a series.

He'll write it. Q wants him to too badly.
JQ: How about if I tell you that Mark Millar will be writing Alpha Flight? Now I don’t know if that’s true or not but I think Mark may have stated that on his website this week or something. If he isn’t then perhaps enough fans can write to him and have him finally agree to write the book he was born to do.

Wasn't Alpha Flight the book JB was born to do (in that without JB's ideas there really wouldn't have been an Alpha Flight?)
