JB: I’m reading the Alpha Flight By John Byrne Omnibus. It’s interesting to read the early pre-series appearances in Hulk, Machine Man and Marvel Two-In-One. I’ve never read the Hulk Annual you wrote with Roger Stern and it was a nice surprise.
Some questions:
1) Were those appearances in Hulk, Machine Man and Marvel Two-In-One intended in part to promote the forthcoming Alpha Flight series?
2) Assuming the omnibus contents are indeed comprehensive, it looks like Sasquatch was front and center in almost all of the appearances that weren’t in X-Men. Was Walt Langowski intended or seen as a potential “star”?
3) I just reread the team’s first full appearance, and found Sasquatch’s entrance to be the most effective, this barely-seen monster affably shaking Wolverine like an infant. Was this monstrous scientist aspect inspired by The Beast?
