World War Wendigo: Worthwhile?

[Phil]

Can I be entirely honest?....

No! How dare you?! Death to honesty! Death to opinions!

I know Aurora can be callous, but for her to actually suggest that Talisman is better off dead than in a relationship with puck?

I found it much the same as her callous comments about Bochs and his disability, so to me it was fitting with *that* personality that Byrne wrote.

They literally had zero chemistry or romantic interest for what I don't know the entirety of alpha flights history. Plus the massive age difference (remember she was 6 when Heather was twelve when Judd was pushing sixty) and him being best friends with her father makes this a very squicky relationship and also insults both characters.

I thought that originally, but Byrne had them flirting back in #23:

I genuinely think Byrne would have put them together, had he continued on the book.
And she's not much younger than Heather, really.

At the end of the day only the xmen help save the day

It was their book, and their story.

the only Alpha flight member beging given character development that's not negative is north star.

Because he was an X-Man at the time, and it was his book.

But again, all my thoughts.

After rereading it, I realized I was a bit harsh on it. The second read through it was actually quite enjoyable, once I put the character regression of Aurora (remember Byrnes Aurora hadn't ben around since 1985 or 6!) and the stupid stupid relationship of talisman and puck( it's more squicky because it's his best friends daughter and less the age difference. and both being close friends with Heather, neither one of them would have let the phone keep ringing so they could bang! And I disagree on the almighty Byrne ever actually would put the two together. Remember it was Byrnes shaman that told Byrnes puck that once byrnes Heather got over Byrnes macs death, that he should accept the task of being heathers romantic interest. It was mantalo that had her spurn pucks advances and go to Jefferies. If Byrne had stayed he would have put puck with Heather. But I guess mantalo couldn't have his female lead dating a dwarf!) behind me I found it a good read p, particullarly because it has my fav xmen colossus kicking butt!
