Except they didn't debut in 1993. Not allowed to have typos on Facebook ,you know.

Oh, and your memory is, uh, tact; Snowbird was killed by Heather (due to the machinations of Pestilence).

That's a cool photo series; have we talked about the Diamond ones? You don't like them as much?

I'm not on Facebook, btw, so can't like you there.

I thought Alpha Flight #1 came out in 1993?

You're right! Snowbird was killed by Heather! Dern it. Which is a bummer, because I just posted a Team Shot of all the Alpha Flight busts together (https://www.facebook.com/comicreliefpodcast/photos/a.234445133395409.1073741828.230356780470911/253144384858817/?type=1&stream_ref=10) and said again (I think) that Snowbird was killed by Pestilence. (I will go with a round about way being right!) LOL

As for the Diamond edition ones - never seen them. I collected, pretty much exclusively Bowen Designs busts. I think the only non Bowen Designs one I have is a Longshot bust.

Ugh, no! They aren't carrying tons of guns on the cover.
They came out in 1983 - but I just looked at my copy, and that 8 does look like a 9. LOL

You can edit, right?

They have a Sasquatch, a Snowbird, and a Heather. The Sas and Snowbird are posed differently to the Bowen versions, and have arms (so does Heather); in fact, my white Sas is Bowen and my orange Sas is Diamond.

Mother of God. You're right. It was 83. No idea why I had 93 stuck in my head. Which would make no sense, because it definitely came out while I was still in school.

Um, that'd be Volume 4. Yeah. Um, okay, let's forget about it and move on, then, shall we?

Well, technically you could have been in school that long, depending on what grade you repeated and how many times...

Old as I may be (and it's pretty old!), I wasn't still in school in 1993. I wish I was still in like, High School then (without repeats), because that'd mean I'd be much younger!

I blame your parents. If they hadn't had you that soon, you wouldn't be this old.
