    I’m really enjoying this. I like FVL’s writing a lot, and Dale Eaglesham is great.

    I like it too! One of the few Marvel titles I actually look forward to reading.

    The Artwork of Dale Eaglesham is absolutely amazing.  I am not enjoying the story as much though.  I am Canadian and proud of it but the constant Canadianisms is a bit much 🙁

    Let me join in the lovefest.  Now that Puck is back too, this book is the Alpha Flight book I’ve always wanted.

    This is Marvel’s new flagship book!! I know it is only a mini however; they should just keep it rolling because they finally have something that is good!!

    Just sayin’,

    Great issue.  One topic I’ve always been fascinated with is kind of a icky one…given Aurora’s split personality issues, exactly how selfish was Walter to have a sexual relationship with her, and how much does his behavior excacerbate her problems?  For all of John-Paul’s annoyances, in a lot of ways he is the only one who cares about her as a human being.  I love that unusual triangle between Sasquatch-Aurora-Northstar (as well as the Guardian-NorthStar-Aurora triangle).

    That final splash page of the villain was AWESOME!

    Am still having trouble accepting the new Marrina, she just seems like a cliche to me.

    I thought this issue was great.  lots of action and it just felt like the Alpha Flight book that we have been craving. 

    PS i love the new Marina “DIE EARTH SCUM!”
