Back issues

[Tawmis]

Short of a film, or a major, major creative team taking on the team, I don't think back issues will become a priority.

I think they just need some cool story telling... (which the last "volume" of Alpha Flight, thought could have done just that, because we got a clean Alpha Flight, with a little edge)... Because it's typically Fabian N. who writes Deadpool (and I believe the one who successfully be credited for making him as popular as he is now)... and Fabian also wrote New Warriors and a segment of the original Alpha Flight... I think Alpha Flight was too much of a mess by the time Fabian was writing it... which is why I think the latest volume had the potential to make Alpha Flight popular had it been given a chance to continue as a series.

I thought it was someone else? (Can't remember who, but wrote part of the Deadpool ongoing.)

He's definitely why I like New Warriors, but I didn't like his Alpha Flight. I've developed a theory about him:
He'll take pretty much any job they give him. When he cares about that job, he's one of the greatest writers out there; when he doesn't, he's... not.
That's why Linkara has to keep saying 'Fabian, you're a good writer! Stop appearing on my show!' (he only reviews bad comics). That's why New Warriors was great, his Alpha Flight wasn't. etc...

I think he just does better with clean slate characters.

You have to admit by the time he got his hands on Alpha Flight, they were a horrible mess.
