Rob Liefeld and Alpha Flight

[Ogrebear]

So according to the interview here: http://www.cbr.com/281997-2/

“Alpha Flight,” I asked? This was new info…


“Well, before I was committed to New Mutants, I was looking for a vehicle that I could have more plot input on and it turns out that they were looking for a new team on ‘Alpha Flight.’ I was a huge fan and sent in a two year proposal that pre-dates my start on ‘New Mutants’ by about seven months. Cable was introduced as a soldier from Wolverine’s past, who would have worked with the existing Alpha Flight roster. Danny Fingeroth was eager to get me on the series, but when it wasn’t going to be re-launched I opted for ‘New Mutants’ and was able to do a dramatic housecleaning with editorial’s blessing.


So what was the state of Alpha Flight in May '89? How were Sales? Who were the Team Members, and how where the characters going down with fans?

If Liefield had come onto AF, and got his relaunch would Cable have ended up as Leader? Taking AF into a darker, grittier direction?

So I tweeted Rob Liefeld to ask what had been in his planning documents for Alpha Flight id he had gotten the book and he replied: "It was full of Cable, Kane, Deadpool and Domino.. all the same stuff"

So what do you think might have happened to Canada's Superhero Team under Rob in the 90's onwards?
