So I went to Toronto Comicon not too long ago and met a guy who sold tiny figures. I think they were Hero Clix? Either way, we asked him if he had any Alpha Flight surprisingly, he said yes but not on him. Fast forward to Fan Expo and he didn't have enough room to include older sets (including Alpha Flight) but had a few scattered ones in his "misc" box. No luck there.
I DID however, recently learn that my friend/roommates teacher is none other than "Canada's own" David Ross and that he penciled Alpha Flight 35-44 and would be attending Fan Expo Canada. I picked up issue 36 and realised the cover was drawn by Mike Mignola who was also attending the convention this year.

This basically made my entire weekend. Anyone else go to Fan Expo?

Congrats, Gingr.
I've never been to Canada :(, but it sounds like a great con.

Spike: Look at you. All afraid I'm hot for your honey.
Riley: Because you are.
Spike: Well... yeah. But that's not your problem. Even if I wasn't in the picture, you're never gonna be able to hold onto her.

Mik, Canada isn't a con; not unless somebody tries to sell it to you.

I tip my cap, sir; nicely played.
That smiley above would be much better, if it actually worked like it was supposed to.

It's hard to recognize him, without Bendis in the background with an evil grin as he furiously writes him out of existence...so, is Guardian on the left or the right?
Aha! Here's my photo of him from Friday:

I'll pay you to keep her there, permanently.
