    Default The Twins Return ?

    Some select January 2007 highlights...


    X-MEN ANNUAL #1
    Written by MIKE CAREY
    Pencils and Cover by MARK BROOKS
    Rogue and her team have unfinished business on board the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier - business that concerns the twins, Northstar and Aurora, and a last-ditch attempt to restore them to their right minds. But a powerful enemy from the X-Men's past has a different agenda - and his plans to hijack the Helicarrier for his own uses lead to a terrible revelation.
    48 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99

    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    I figure it's either they return to become good guys, or they become more permanent bad guys.

    And where's the search for Box, hmmm?

    *drops to her knees* Oh please God or whatever or whoever you are, please let them be good guys again and let them stick around. Forever.

    God. Now my hopes are up. -.-'
    I seriously want the Walter stuffed animal from AF #106. Seriously.

    Maybe they are getting them ready for use a little further down the line in the Omega Flight series?

    Getting them ready for an upcoming Alpha Flight series would be infinitely better.

    I'm with Dana on this one! Even if it takes some time I'd much rather see them in an Alpha Flight series!

    I know that this is total heresy but... I kinda like John Paul on the X men. I liked the attempt to show that there is more than one kind of sexual orientation. That and he's so freaking snarky that it was hillarious to get him around people who just aren't used to that.

    I wonder in the new Alpha FLight if they'd use some of the chars from this latest AF, or if they'd stick to the originals? It'd be pretty confusing to combine both. Puck is awesome, but two pucks is just odd.

    I figure they'll mostly use only people from v1, maybe some from v2. Unlikely anything from v3 from comments I've read. V2 at least had popular characters in popular settings, and two popped up depowered in New Avengers.
