Talisman appears and has several lines and even some action in Doctor Strange #8 (but you probably knew that). :D
Dana
Shaman made a brief cameo with the rest of Marvels Mystics in Civil War II #1
Saw this on CBR today:
Not sure if this means they take part in events, or if we only cutaway to them for a reaction shot like in the original CW.Quote:
Other characters, we just thought it would be interesting -- for various reasons -- to see how "CWII" would affect them. How Punisher would handle this new world where crime is prevented before it happens; how this very "grown up" ordeal might be seen from the POV of the kids of Power Pack; how the heroes of Alpha Flight might feel about all this, given that their boss is Captain Marvel.
It often means they get a one-shot. I'm wondering how old the Power Pack they speak of will be?Quote:

It's been a while since we've seen Power Pack's Jack and Katie. Have they aged some? And will this be the complete group? Because Alex went off with Reed Richards and his family at the end of "Secret Wars."Quote:

After some time with the Loners and Avengers Academy, Julie has decided to focus on a normal education, so she's enrolled at Empire State University in New York, and this story sees Jack and Katie coming to visit her. So, yeah, no Alex here, but the story does briefly deal with his absence. Writer John Allison (of the tremendously fun "Giant Days" series) and artist Rosi Kampe are handling this story, and they've done a great job with it -- staying true to the voice of the characters and the original series, but with 2016 very much in mind.
Weird... this:Quote:

I'm guessing that the story is about Jack and Katie then, and that they're 'the kids' of Power Pack.
Could be that. Could be a little ditty about Jack and Diane - two American kids growing up in New York.
Ah, thanks. :)Quote:

Puck very briefly appears in today's Power Man & Iron Fist #7 (2 covers), and is likely to show up more in next month's #8.
There's also a fun & cheeky non-appearance in today's Mockingbird #6.
Love the exposure their getting. This was good for the team
Does it make me less of an Alpha Fan that I stopped my subscription of captain marvel? I cut my subscription for two reasons: first in the 6 issues I read the the three former Alpha members (puck, sasquatch, and Aurora) are imho nothing but background characters and cardboard ones at that. I understand it's captain marvels book, but a supporting cast needs focus and character development as well, things they really do not get in this series. Like if this was my first introduction to Alpha Flight, I wouldn't even know Aurora had superpowers as she doesn't show them in the book once! Second, I know this may sound weird but I generally subscribe to comic series in which the title character shares (more or less) my morality on today's issues. Captain Marvel, both in alpha flight, and civil war, does not on so many levels it really devalues the reading experience for me in the former series to where I don't want to read it anymore.
I'll admit I find most of the captain marvel issues dragging and overall slow. For new remembers yeah they haven't done a good job giving the supporting cast much backstory sans puck. In Ms.Marvlel (carols old book) they did a good job with sleepwalker, Arachne and machine man when they were working with her.
Personally speaking, I wouldn't want them to get development in someone else's book.
I'm just happy for them to be treated consistently and respectfully.
Yankee, I haven't cancelled or anything, but I basically see them as furniture in that title. I can't blame you for cutting out.

The Northstar doll from #6 reappears in today's Mockingbird #7.
And there's some Guardian cosplay in Mockingbird #8!
Doctor Strange:Last Days Of Magic (Oneshot)
Now, this came out about 6 months ago and at the time I flicked through it and saw no Alphans.
However; upon actually reading it on Marvel Unlimited with it's extreme zoomed state I noticed the final panel:
So that's a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaally tiny Talisman and Shaman appearance.
Three Covers too...
Is that the nanobots from The Middleman tying all the magic users in Marvel to the stake? Including Illyana, who technically belongs to Fox?
It's cool to have a cameo, even a steps-removed one, in the MCU; but one minor issue I had with the movie, with the inclusion of Tina Minoru and especially Daniel Drumm was that it narrows the fields of magic. In the comics there are a lot of magics - sorcery, voodoo, sarcee, et al; in the movie, it seems to be just the sorcery.

Oh, it's not MCU or film related.
This was in continuity.
Sorry, misunderstood there. I blame myself.
Is that the trade collection of the first few issues of the new series that just started?
Hmm. Not sure if that's either Talisman or Shaman. I'm hoping an artist or writer can confirm. It's just so super tiny.
The colour schemes don't match any of the other magic users:
Phil, I take it that last panel (that set of panels) is from the ongoing series and not the one-shot?
Yup yup.
#6 which comes just before the one shot.

Interesting ~ do they do much?

Only appeared for a few panels. Arrived to take away the beaten aliens. Sasquatch was the squad leader and had talking lines while aurora was just in one panel (non-speaking)
Okay, about par for the course then.
