Who will be the betrayer in Vol.4?

[Le Messor]

Maybe his guilt factor with being the "poster boy" for Canada makes him go work for the Government.

But he's the only one not on a poster...

Or it could be a deliberate mislead and he is on a poster, but he's the only one still uncaptured and on the loose...

i'm assuming its not any of the originals. i think fvl worked way to hard to get the originals together, just to break them up. PLUS, the solicits say a "closest allies". heres the solicit:

for the shocking actions of one of their closest allies.

makes me think that means Northstar's terrorist past.

I think that while the rest of the team side with JP, Mac will do as he's told be the Government....

Was it Earthmover on Tamirind Isle with the 'Lobdell book of Plot Lines'?

[Legerd]

No, it was Professor Plum in the Conservatory with the lead pipe.

It's Puck. Puck is not listed as part of the team, yet he has a wanted poster. Puck is the "closest ally" who does something that causes them all to be hunted. They are racing to find Puck, as well as trying to avoid the government super types who are after them. 'Nuff said.

...And then when they find him, they beat him up with hockey sticks.

heres what i think. puck returns from hell, he is still a little messed up from the experience, he goes nuts and starts killng innocents. the goverment assumes its all of alpha flight and bands them all traitors. department h is re-formed with a new alpha flight (which i cant wait to see who they put on that team).

what do you think?

[DelBubs]

I think that I can tell 'The Verve' that contrary to popular believe the drugs do work.

Hmm...probably. So we are going to have a Mac team and a Gentry team? I think exposing too many Alphans isnt good for non-Alpha fans to get into the book. I dont think FVL would want people who didnt follow the greatest superhero team in the world to wonder who Manikin and Goblyn and Windshear are when he is trying to establish the originals

[DelBubs]

Actually, on a serious note, thanks for mentioning 'Gentry'. I was struggling earlier to remember his name. Mainly from the viewpoint of him being an ally (?) and could be the one who did all that betraying stuff.

[mos_def]

usually what happens in these situations is that a high ranking government official is possessed or a town is somehow destroyed. The Japan disaster was way before they started writing this but with 9-11, and an already used Samford, CT being destroyed, I doubt its a town being wiped out.

Does anyone remember WildCATs when a Daemonite possessed the vice president and Youngblood, the government strikeforce had to counter the attack. Usual comic stuff. Maybe Yukon Jack goes off the deep end and whatever demon uses him to kill someone goes into Puck and now they have to find Puck cuz Shaman and Snowbird sense the possession. Maybe one of the Great Beast, lets say Neooqtoq takes human form from the deal made with Sasquatch and yokes the PM. The team is all there on youtube...the whole team has to get hunted down. Bring out the Epsilon Blacks

[Le Messor]

Does anyone remember WildCATs ... and Youngblood

No. *gnorfle* No!

(Sorry, too much Linkara...)

I was going to make a joke about the ally who betrays them being one of the creators, but decided not to name real names.
My real thoughts are, as always, I'll wait and see.
