The NA#16 victims were Mac, Heather, Puck, Shaman, but also Sasquatch, Puck II (Zuzha Yu) and Major Mapleleaf, Jr. But the sentiment of "Hey, it really didn't happen!" is fine with me. But really I think the unfortunate events of NA#16, which were so poorly written and so insanely stupid, ought not even have happened in the first place anyway, so any iota of effort given to try to explain it all is wasted.
I’d Reveal That the Time Displaced Alpha Flight Died in The New Avengers’ Collective Storyline
Or that the Time Displaced Alpha Flight (from Scott Lobdell’s Alpha Flight run) are still alive – either or.
In either event, I’d use the gaping loophole Lobdell left for everyone at the end of that series and bring back Alpha Flight.
You don’t even have to use them right away – just establish that they’re alive out there and if someone EVENTUALLY wants to use them, have the option be there.
Open the door, basically.
