Tropa Alfa (Brazilian Alpha Flight)

[maniac mike]

I thought everybody here would get a kick out of this, a What If? micro hero version of AF if it had been formed in Brazil.

When you click on the link, just page down about half way and you will see it.

Alright I was a little worried when I passed the best she-male contest and what if Booster Gold and Blue Bettle had a kid. However, once I got to the Alpha Flight I was pretty impressed. Guy/girl really makes some original designs

Good find.

I gotta admit I like it. The whole background and everything works well and the designs are well done. Anyone want to fanfic this?

Marrina.. I mean Lara sure does...well...fill out nicely

Cool! What a marvelous concept. Attractive characters, also.

That's awesome! Tropa Alfa looks great! I would totally buy an issue of that.

Most people don't know but Brazil and some other Latin American countries are suprisingly multicultural. There are many ethnicities, large populations of Germans, Italians, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Arabs, as well as the africans, mullatos, meztizos, and natives.

What I'm saying is a super hero team could have a very ecclectic mix with people from many different backgrounds; rich, poor, forign, native, nationalist, socialist, educated, criminal, all the good stuff.

I'd like to see more super heroes from countries besides the US, Canada, and the UK, the english countries. In Brazil, you have the Amazon, extensive and untracked, you could definatly have an ancient evil underneath it, right. You could also put in some political intrigue with the Socialistisation of Brazil and Venezuela, and now Bolivia; or drug problems even. It'd be sweet.

I'll be wating for it...

Could you imagine what a Tundra-type would look like if raised from the banks of the Amazon? I really like this concept.

What would Kolomaq be like I wonder? I doubt a snow beast would thrive in Brazil. Maybe a rain beast?

[Spyridona]

Tropical great Beasts would look so cool. Today's colorists would have a fun job if this permise existed.

I'm going to draw up some concepts this holiday and scan them in. It's such a great idea not to.
