'xactly.

And this from an Alpha Flight fan.

… Still, good to get some Alpha love out there.

What Happened to the Children of Namor and Marrina?

I can't seem to enter a comment at the end of that article but someone should. The writer of the article completely missed two follow-up stories. Wasn't there a Namor annual where he fought a Plodex hoard and it was supposed to be one or more of the children? Also, the writer says nothing about the 3rd Alpha Flight series and "Mar". I know that it was never actually stated in the series, but the ending certainly suggested that he was one of the children.

I lost my ability to comment on that site years ago (due to changes in how they take comments).

I remember the implication about Mar. Do we know which Namor annual?

I believe it was #4.

It was Namor Annual #4. The article was updated to include details from the issue

[Le Messor]

Thanks, Ahab and -K-M-. Good to hear they updated it.

I don't have that annual. :/

This one's kind of stretching, but the following article:
https://www.cbr.com/marvel-comics-titania-times-two/
includes this line:
"how many Pucks have their (sic) been in comics?"
(I only know of two, and they're legacy, but their (HA!) could be more. )

About 10 minutes into this video, he talks about Northstar:

According to the CBR Article that Phil linked to above, Alpha Flight: North of 20 Facts About the Canadian X-Men Spinoff, the series was 'often bilingual'. Does anyone know what this is talking about? I remember no more than a couple of words here and there? (Also, Victor Langkowski?!?)

Vindicator gets a mention in this article on CBR. (He's been retconned into the scene with Chasen's tie, but he actually appears lower down in the article.)

And Alpha get their own article here.
