That's the first time I've actually seen the notorious Puck / Talisman scene. She looks like Persuasion there!
That is a weird cover you found, Phil. Not a Byrne Guardian, but a bizarre pic.

Listing Angelo twice reminds me of Linkara's reaction to his tragic death (Linkara didn't know who he was).
Didn't Pyro die of the Legacy Virus? ("violently"?)
Yes, I saw Diamond Lil there.

They're all repeated at least twice.
It's not an appearance as such but it's nice to see her there.
Apparently this is out in comic specialty stores, there might be an Alphan appearance?

EDIT:
Stephen Mooney has confirmed on twitter that there is:

Mooney is correct! There's a splash page with some Alphans, a posed image with Northstar, a very large Sasquatch, Puck, Aurora with a glowing fist (?!), Guardian (with um, something on his costume, something which is definitely not a maple leaf), and Snowbird. In the enemies section, Wild Child appears but wearing his Age of Apocalypse costume. It's a strange book with little pull out cards and papers and posters, kind of like a pop up book made out of post-its.
Oh and Alpha Flight makes a cameo in the very last issue of Comic Heroes magazine: http://www.sfx.co.uk/2014/07/18/comi...4-now-on-sale/ It's $19.99USD which is a bit steep but you do get 164 pages.

... 'classic Wolvie lineup'? I take it that means the original Byrne (or X-Men) line-up?
I'm led to believe that there's some AF in this:

I have no proof yet so it might be worth a look before a purchase.
Has anyone got this poster at all?
Is that Puck just below Spider-Man? (Hard to see on this image, but if you've got it I'm sure it's obvious)
EDIT: The pre-painted inks certainly make it look like it is:

Also, Sasquatch at the back on the left.

I see a guy in a Guardian suit and a guy in a Shaman costume, I think, in this week's Wolverine and the X-Men #9 http://marvel.com/comics/issue/48904...e_x-men_2014_9
It's not them, just guests at the party dressed up as them. Kinda counts.... and reminds me of some other appearances of people dressed up as Alpha Flight characters.

Just found my list that I mentioned a few months ago. Will be double-checking what is actually in the issues as I had only written down who was there - not whether it was as a new appearance vs. reprint of old pic. I do have a verified appearance. All of these comics were anniversary issues with borders of characters. Puck is in the lower left corner - verified by the Official Marvel Index of the Marvel Universe (showing the Avengers issue). They list all the characters - including Puck. The issues include :
Captain America 323
Conan Barbarian 188
Conan the King 37
Daredevil 236
FF 296
Ironman 212
New Mutants 45
Amaz. Spiderman 282
Sens. Spiderman 193
Spect. Spiderman 120
Thor 373
We are aware of these issues but because they're reprinted artwork that isn't unique they're only counted once, under the appropriate Alpha Flight issue.
