History
From the alternate reality, Earth #199405. Logan never became Weapon X or Wolverine, but instead Guy Desjardins an ex-mounted police became this realities Weapon X. The process of becoming Weapon X made his mind snap, so the scientist created a regulator that feeds him adrenaline or tranquilizers as needed. James Hudson was in the development of creating the Canadian government-sponsored super-team, The Flight - precursor to Alpha Flight. Department H couldn?t fully control Weapon X, so they sent him to Hudson as a new recruit for the Flight. James and Walter reviewed Weapon X's tapes to which Walter felt he was a complete psychotic, and that they have to send him back. James declined as he wanted to help the man, but Walter warned him, ''"someday your compassion is going to be stretched to far, James. Maybe soon and when it is..I hope the cost isn't to much to bear?.Unfortunately, Weapon X escaped as they were ameliorating his drugs, and in the process of escaping he killed Walter and traveled to Kenora to begin his murderous rampage. Against orders by the Government James activated the Flight and sent them after Weapon X. However, by going against orders and broke secrecy, the Government retired their communication codes, cutting them off. The team wasn?t ready for this, weren?t trained and weren?t confident, which led to their downfall. One by one members of the team were killed off, and James decided to done his Groundhog armor he developed and take it into battle. However, the suit was to slow, and allowed Weapon X to impale him with his blades killing James. As he was dying he wished he made the suit faster, more streamlined and felt this was all his fault, but the dying Snowbird assured him his dream could have worked. After James death there was no other attempt at rebuilding Alpha Flight in this reality.
