Windshear appeared in Thunderbolts #43
Any theory on how "hard air" sculptures are actually feasible would be appreciated?

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!
Maybe he's pulling a Spidey and making people believe he is a mutant to escape prejudice.... Or maybe Brian Micheal Bendis is just a tad ignorant when it comes to AF members. Wait, Bendis ignorant? ....Naw!Originally Posted by Spyridona
C'mon Del... it's Fabien Nicieza, who absolutely loves to play the game "if I take this character's powers to the logical extreme, what could they do?"Originally Posted by DelBubs
So with Windshear, it's easy. Go from "creating hard air" to "creating hard air in specific shapes".
From there move on to "creating permanent hard air objects" and you're done.
(The fact that Colin apparently worked out a lighting scheme that renders the objects visible doesn't hurt.
Hiya Dwayne, so reading between the lines, suspend believe Gotcha A definition of 'hard air' would help as well, I guessOriginally Posted by DMK

I think that's the same stuff in one of those male prosthetic pump thingies. How you make a sculpture out of it though is beyond me.Originally Posted by DelBubs

Apparently, House of M will screw around with Alpha Flight.
Cloak and Dagger are not true mutants, due to the drug that activated their powers, and they are still powered as of current issues of Runaways.
Icarus, that Archangel rip off that he is, still had powers.
Dani Moonstar has lost her powers.
White Queen still has hers.
Is the loss of some of Alpha's superflous minor members a big deal? It would actually help clarify the waters if Persuasion, Diamond Lil, Feedback, Goblyn, WildChild, Manikin, and all the V2/V3 mutants were depowered? I say keep Pathway, because her teleportation powers could be useful to the team.
Rogue had too much put into her recently for her to lose her powers.
Madison Jeffries seems to be the root of the sentinels now, so he will probably stay powered.
When/what issue did Pete Wisdom get resurrected from his death in X-Force? More importantly, why?

Kozzi, it was decided a while back that Cloak & Dagger were latent mutants and that's why they survived the drug experimentation while others died. New Warriors fans (myself amongst them) laughed at the first hint of this, but it is now written into Marvel lore. This has of course led to less dilligent writers explaining their powers as mutations with no mention of Mantlo's origins of the pair.

While I agree with SOME of what you said, I can think of a FEW of these former members who should be spared - and brought into the spotlight again.Originally Posted by kozzi24

Right now, Rogue has more powers than most people have socks, so what if she's missing a few?
Actually, Pete didn't die, he faked his death - tho I don't know why, except that it had something to do with X-Force. What I wanna know is when the hell he got his eye back!When/what issue did Pete Wisdom get resurrected from his death in X-Force? More importantly, why?

Wha...huh? Cloak and Dagger were latent mutants back when they had their own series...long before the New Warriors came along.Originally Posted by DelBubs

ALPHA FLIGHT IS RESURRECTED, LONG LIVE ALPHA FLIGHT!
I remember Cloak & Dagger's origin and totally agree with your point, Del. LATENT mutants who got their power BECAUSE OF the drug...thus not actually mutants per se...they were in their late teens when they got their powers. Would they have gained powers without the drug?
By expansion, why do others die by cosmic or gamma rays when the FF and Bruce Banner gained powers...latent mutancy, a dormant X-Factor in their genes.
To put an Alpha spin on that thought, why was Heather NOT transformed or powered by the terrigen mists? She has NO latent mutancy in her genes.
Allan, my point with Rogue is just that she seems to be a very active character in Marvel's stable, considering her recent acquisition of Sunfire's powers, thus it's no shock that her powers survived M-Day. Iceman seems to be the token original/core X-Man who lost his powers. Realistically, no one's done anything with him since Lobdell did ten or more years ago. I would not, however, be surprised if Storm returns depowered...people love to retell stories rather than coming up with new ones.

Warren Ellis, who created Wisdom, was ticked they said that Pete lost an eye during the Reagan adminstration (I think on that one) when Pete had both eyes in Excal. So, Ellis retconned Pete's 'missing' eye when he began to write for X-Force, by having Pete admit he wore the eye patch to get the chicks. Because chicks dig the eye patch.Originally Posted by HappyCanuck
*GROAN!!* Yeah, that sounds like something Ellis would do...Originally Posted by Spyridona

It's why I adore Ellis, so much.
... except with his take on Ultimate Dr. Doom. But that's a different subject all together. :P

I'm sure that the Latent Mutant idea didn't come about until mid way through the first New Warriors series, but I could be wrong.Originally Posted by Corey
