Some Alpha Flight appearances

[rplass]

Alpha Flight makes appearances in two upcoming books about to be released.

Sasquatch and the Alpha Flight Omnijet make it into Insight Editions Marvel Vehicles: Owner's Workshop Manual. They are the same people who made the World according to Wolverine that Phil mentioned earlier.



It's like an Official Marvel Handbook for vehicles. I saw a preview copy at NYCC today.

Also, Alpha Flight appears in the biggest BIGGEST book in the Alpha Flight collection: 75 Years of Marvel Comics. From the Golden Age to the Silver Screen by Taschen. It's a monstrous oversized 712 page book that weighs a ton. You can see Puck reprinted on the cover of West Coast Avengers #1 and there's a blurb about Northstar and Kyle's wedding with a reprinted cover of Astonishing X-Men #51.



Did I say how big it is? It's so big.

Sasquatch and the Alpha Flight Omnijet make it into Insight Editions Marvel Vehicles: Owner's Workshop Manual.

I had a flick through this today.
The scan of the Omnijet is pretty bad quality. Definitely taken from the Byrne era but with poor restoration.
Also, the picture isn't Sasquatch it's Wendigo from Avengers (2013) #10, labeled as Sasquatch.

Additionally there's an entry for the Department H Helicarrier, from the same issue.

Ah, the girl at the Insight booth said it was still under review from Marvel so maybe you saw a pre-production copy? Dunno. Anyway she also said if you order it from the Insight website to use the promo code NYCC to get a 30% discount!

I see Northstar in this:

but he's not behaving! Not at all!

I presume you're referring to http://alphaflight.net/showthread.ph...7700#post97700

[rplass]

Yup. But I wished they showed Mac in the FF#1 story. As explicitly laid out by Byrne in AF#3.

Just wanted to let you all know (if it hasn't already com up) that Sasquatch is on a monitor in the background of the Agents of Shield Comic 1 that came out recently. They also have information on the old Omega Flight on a screen.

[Phil]

There's a thread on it at http://alphaflight.net/showthread.ph...-S-H-I-E-L-D-1 but thanks for checking!

Today's All-New X-Men #36 has a return to the much-return-ed fight scene panel from House of M #6 and while you can't tell it's him because he's far away you can make out Daredevil kicking someone.
We know from the original scene that that someone is Northstar!

[Le Messor]

That's kinda cool!
What are they doing in House Of M?

The issue focuses on Deadpool dressing up in Wolverine's costume to act as him/replace him and there's one page where he tries to join The Avengers, X-Men, SHIELD and on the last quarter-page panel Alpha Flight!

Northstar with AF rather than the X-Men!
Correct costumes for the twins!
Pointy ears!
MAISON ALPHA!!!
