Omega Flight!!!!!

[King_Mungi]

Interesting to note those who "died" in New Avengers may come back earlier than thought, as the temporal copies which I thought they may ignore are not completly gone.

asked Marvel what was the status of Alpha Flight, who died in New Avengers, what's the status of Lobdell Flight, and got no answer for a long time, but now:

"The people who died in New Avengers #16, by the hand of the Collective, were the Alpha Flight members who returned from seeing the Plodex plus the two new recruits."

And as to the time displaced members and where they are:

Omega Flight editor Andy Schmidt says:
"To my knowledge, we've never said one way or the other, so, technically, they still exist. At least, until someone says they don't."

The second quote was passed on to me by a buddy who has two sons who got subscriptions to OF, no wonder he got an answer faster!

damn. kolins is the man.

i will personally make sure this becomes an ongoing.

 

[King_Mungi]

I think his art style has improved to what it was, but didn't the preview art was that amazing. I think it was good until Walter appears, he wasn't drawn that well.

I've never read anything regarding Alpha or Omega Flight, so I'm interested to see how they'll make this series Canadian.

I hope this title is good. All the excellent miniseries seem to be ending at the moment so could do with another one.

 

[King_Mungi]

Well in Civil War: Aftermath Spotlight it's revealed Talisman is the leader....with USAgent, and that Penance almost became a member of OF.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Which Penance? The one with the Thunderbolts or the one who's going to be with the Loners?

 

[King_Mungi]

Thunderbolts' Penance, and other characters Oeming couldn't reveal.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Huh. I guess the relatively decent characters in Omega Flight just didn't give him the same self-flagellating means to live up to his name as working for Norman ****ing Osborn did.

 

[King_Mungi]

The writers basically had a draft for characters, and Mike almost got Penance as he said in the interview. Glad he didn't join actually, already have an "emo-character" in Micheal Pointer

 

[King_Mungi]

Thanks to AlphaFlight.net, much larger pictures and an extra preview page

For a second Sasquatch looked a lot bigger then I recalled. But after checking in a old Alpha Flight book, he's the same size as always.
Great art. Hope the story is just as good.

 

[King_Mungi]

I'm sure it will be, as Mike and Scott have put a lot of work into it and really care about the series

Yeah. I'm surprised Pointer didn't adopt a costume that castrates him every ten minutes, given all the destruction he caused. Oh wait, that's right, 'cause Pointer's a rational adult, not a whiny emo *****.

She has turned into any woman form she chooses, turned into the Wendigo, Tanaraq, and a man

Wanda at this time was using Snowbird's body

UXM and wiki has many errors

I don't see Snowbird turning into another woman. Her only other female form was the normal blonde woman she was born into. Those pages feature Walter Langkowski as Wanda, after his soul got transplanted into Snowbird's physical remains. That doesn't show that Snowbird herself could assume non-animal, insect forms while in it. And Snowbird did not turn into Tanaraq, she only assumed his appearance in order to defeat him. He was a beast god, so she could copy that beastly form. If you're referring to her new physical form, the only limit that's noted gone is being bound to Canadian borders.

I didn't post scans of her turning into another woman, just mentioned it. Heck her Snowbird look with all the white and blue isn't what she actually looks like. Her "True face" is vastly more demonic looking. Yes I know that, but Wanda body who is actually Snowbird's was altered to transform back into Walter's male form. Right there we know it can do more than just animals. Actually they verbally stated she turned into Tanaraq, as when she did it again Tanaraq took over her body twice. Wendigo is stated to be the "personification of hunger, and a demon" and she transformed into him. He's not simply an animal.

im sticking to my guns and saying she cant turn into anything but animals(and her human and other form),uxn woulda pointed it out and wikis got nothing either and with marvel backing them up http://www.marvel.com/universe/Snowbird I think its safe to say thats the truth.

Except I have actual scans from the comics, and both wikipedia and UXM are fansites hardly factual. Actually handbooks are often wrong, Sasquatch is listed as class 70 but he has been shown to drag and lift out of the water a fully equiped destroyer, catch a 6 story apartment, toss a DC-10 which weighs 250 tons 1000 feet with ease. He has been shown durable enough that armor peircing machine gun fire bounches off of him, and tank shells don't hurt him yet his durability rating does not equal that. Also Guardian shields have stopped a nuclear explosion, and has been shown to be bulletproof yet handbooks don't state that. Guardian can also go speeds faster than light, never mentioned again. I can pick many errors out from the handbooks.

 

[ang_hulk]

those scans were explained above your post.Mabey uxn and wiki are fan sites but uxn is a great site and they do updates constanly,i trust them over marvel but with marvel saying the same things and the scans beign explained(for the time being) im sticking to her just being able to do the animal stuff and be a human at times.JSYK The only reason im going on with this is because somone claimed she could transform into somone and use all there abilites thus she could beat the hulk...its not true,she cant transform into him nore could she utilize his abilities.

I trust scans over a fansite anyday. Also it was me and yes that is what was stated, since she didn't have the border limitation she could transform into anything as stated. She transformed and gained the full power of an Elder God, Tanaraq and he isn't from Earth. She also transformed into Wendigo a magical demon who is the personification of hunger and gained all it's power. So if she can gain all the power/abilities of an Elder God what would stop her from taking Hulk's? Plus the fact she wouldn't even need to turn into the Hulk to beat him. Basically your relying on fansites, when I have provided actual scans

Ooooook apparently Micheal Pointer is Canadian now
