Could there be a new Alpha Flight?

One can hope. But I doubt it. All the reboots make me think they're going to mess up a lot of characters and start doing what DC does, reboot every character and go back every 2 years. I'm sure they'll add more aboriginal characters (but no Shaman, Talisman, Earthmover even), more abnormal characters (but no Puck, Pathway, Goblyn, Aurora….), and more supernatural (but no Marinna or Snowbird). Yup, I'm really more pessimistic.
There should definitely be a new Alpha Flight! I agree with Phil.
No Alphans in teaser #2:

I've read every Secret Wars book so far, including the tie-in books, and there hasn't been even the slightest mention of any Alphans outside Aurora and Snowbird showing up in the background of the cover of A-Force 1. Needless to say I'm not very hopeful.
Well we find out all the new post-secret wars titles next Wednesday.
I'll have news as soon as I can if there is any!
So, of the 60 new titles the following have been announced:
Invincible Iron Man
Spider-Man
Doctor Strange
Captain Marvel
Spider-Gwen
All-New, All-Different Avengers
Squadron Supreme
The Totally Awesome Hulk
A-Force
I take it from the presence of Spider-Gwen that it isn't necessarily 60 NEW titles, but the 60 titles that will be going on after the crossover?

60 new #1's.
I was already excited about the Dr. Strange movie but now think I may have to pick up the comic series as well.
Uncanny Inhumans (and, as Bleeding Cool points out, could this have anything to do with 'Beast' being Trademarked? Which could be good news for Northstar?)
Thank for the update. Just another book to add to be Wed list.
I see why you posted that! ;)
I might add Weirdworld to my standing order (apart from titles I already get). I just found out about the original recently, and am sorry I missed it.

Only the first issue of its out so far so you should be able to jump on board.
It's started!?!
Thanks for the heads-up!
The Secret Wars one has, the theoretical ANADM one isn't till October at least.
Right, thanks. I'll keep an eye out.
I enjoyed it a lot, but I know a few people have had a problem with the artwork.
I'd definitely recommend checking out the preview pages or flicking through it before purchase.
Bleeding Cool's leaks appear to be forcing Marvel into revealing more, and it doesn't sound good for the future of mutants:
Extraordinary X-Men
The Vision
Sounds like the rumor with the mist was true afterall. Not good for the mutants
A karnak ongoing? What? There is some random titles here. Wonder how many will survive
Yeah...
There are still 15 or so to come in Nov-Dec allegedly so we may still have a chance but it's all looking pretty bleak at the moment...
I could see a northstar series (especially with the recent Supreme Court decision), but not holding my breath on Alpha Flight until a lot of these series get cancelled.
I can see Marvel using the supreme court decision sometime in the future in a Northstar solo series.
I see Werewolf By Night was one of the titles guessed at over at bleeding Cool....I was excited, until I remembered he was just killed off in "Mrs. Deadpool and the Howling Commandos". :cry: That said, death isn't a permanent thing in the Marvel Universe, considering we got Guardian, Vindicator, Shaman, Puck and Marrina back from Death's icey grip.
Plus, Mrs Deadpool... was a Secret Wars title so an alternate universe!
Seriously Phil....I can't keep track of what's what and who's who now...LOL!

Who's Who is DC, not Marvel.
BTW, Werewolf By Night just appeared in a recent Deadpool issue, along with a resurrected Mrs Deadpool (Shikla).
