1. How long have you been collecting Alpha Flight??
Honestly I picked up around V.1 #125. But know that I own every Alpha Comic with the exception of #129. One day, I tell you , One day.

The first 12 issues. Without a doubt , IMO, the best issues. Building and defining for all the characters in the team.

Northstar. Well I am gay. ;). Although if this is one of those which Alpha do you think is the hottest type questions, I'll go w/ Jeffries.

Re: Alpha Flight Questionnaire
Bolloxs, sodding HTML, this and this, it's a lot of sodding about, thats all it is. :x :x :x
Anyway re #129, if I see one while out and about, I'll grab it, if you want, that is.
Oh and don't go ragging on Manikin, :lol: he's gotta be better than Radius :x
Re: Alpha Flight Questionnaire
1. How long have you been collecting Alpha Flight?
Volume 3/Issue 1
2. What was your first memory of Alpha Flight? If recent, what was your first reaction?
The X-Men cartoon. My first thought was how cool Vindicator's costume was. Best costume ever.
as for the comic, my first reaction was, :D
3. Who is you favorite Alpha Flight character?
Snowbird. Ignoring the convoluted and confusing continuity, from what I have read she is a consistantly interesting character.
4. Who is you least favorite Alpha Flight character?
As it stands, I have none and wish to avoid back issues of bad periods in order to gain one.
5. Who is you favorite Alpha Flight villain?
None yet.
6. Who is your least favorite Alpha Flight villain?
Department H, I agree with Lobdell's assessment.
7. What do you think is the best issue / story-arch from Alpha Flight?
I really enjoyed X-Men 120/121. I think the Alpha Flight issues were by far the best part of the Claremont/Byrne X-Men.
8. What do you consider the Alpha Flight "Dream Team"?
Guardian, Sasquatch, Shaman, Snowbird, Northstar, Aurora
Although, here's hoping the new ones can earn their place.
9. If you were to be stuck on a desert island with one member of Alpha Flight, Who would it be (powers can not get you off the island)
New Puck, my theory is this, eventually, anyone would become friends under those circumstances unless they have some bitter animosity, in which place they kill each other. I have no bitter animosity with any Flighters. And since I'd end up friends with any of them, it makes sense to go with a babe.
10. Who was/is/could be the best leader of Alpha Flight?
I have no idea, although I liked Guardian as the leader who doesn't want to lead, but that makes him an unlikely candidate for best at it. Probably Heather is best.
11. Who is your favorite Alpha Flight writer?
Undecided.
12. Who is your least favorite Alpha Flight writer?
I'm happier without an asnwer, unless Austen counts, stupid armour.
13. Who is your favorite Alpha Flight artist?
I want to say someone different, but lets face it, Jim Lee just freaking rules.
14. Who is your least favorite Alpha Flight artist?
I'm happier without an answer.
15. If you could undo one thing in Alpha Flight history, what would it be?
The armour.

Is this true? I've never read anything where Byrne would diss his work on AF. Somebody help me out here.
I'm not one of those posters that makes up unfounded statements. All you need to do is read some of Byrne's responses on his own website to quickly determine his attitude regarding Alpha Flight. It's somewhat disappointing...
Yeah I went over there and checked and couldn't really find anything. What shocks me is I met the guy about 10 years back and talked up Alpha Flight with him for 15 minutes. I was 16 or 17 and kept saying to myself "I'm talking with the man who brought me Sasquatch and Puck, AWESOME!!!" At the time he was very cordial and took some time to discuss the series. Basically I just told him how much I liked the idea of #12 Vol 1.
I have to pick up my ice cream if what you guys are telling me is true.
