Astonishing Tales: Snowbird one-shot

[birdygirl]

Thanks again, rplass! I appreciate that you uploaded the first four pages of the Snowbird story.

And more good news! Marvel FINALLY managed to put up the story on its website, so the whole story is now available.

I think the "Marvel Heartbreakers" book in February will probably be a reprint of this story. Not everyone can afford to subscribe to Marvel Digital Comics. I only did it by deciding that this would be my only Christmas present this year. Well, it's worth it. Not only for the Birdie story, but I got to catch up on a lot of Marvel books I missed, ("X-Factor", for one).

What did everyone think of this Snowbird story? I liked it, but wished it could have been longer. I would have liked to see a bit more of Narya's back story. (What exactly happened with her and Yukon Jack, anyway?) Or maybe some scenes, even in the past, with some Alpha Flight members. But then, it's supposed to be a"short-short", anyway. And the story stands well on its own.

I would have liked to see a bit more of Narya's back story. (What exactly happened with her and Yukon Jack, anyway?)

This is mentioned in the new OHOTMU HC #13 entry for Yukon Jack. It says that she left Kemteron after their marriage ended under unrevealed circumstances, and Yukon Jack got sick from the time travel. From the way it's worded, it's amibiguous - his sickness might not have had anything to do with her leaving, or it was one of the causes. It's a poorly constructed sentence, anyway, I remembered you asked about this and was really hoping to see some new info on that!

Love,
