Ouch...D! Paragraphs are our friends...It seriously hurt reading that.
That is a huge gamble...Pointer's placement as "Guardian"/"Weapon Omega" still sticks in the throat of many Alpha fans and Canadian AF fans. Omega did sell well, but there is no guarantee that Weapon Omega will be a success.Originally Posted by Dfense75
I still believe Wolverine should be used to launch a new Alpha series (with a strong writing and art team). Wolvie's roots are in Canada, why not use him there for a while? Get him out of the other books for a bit.
I agree with you about Mac, but I find Pointer to be nearly as bad...He has shown very little personality (outside of playing the guilt-ridden, victim)...And as I said above the whole premise of the character sticks in my throat as an AF/OF character. He's a character who has been used by an evil force (The Collective or Marvel...Take your pick) to kill characters we love(d), is currently being used by a "weak" Canadian government (at least that's the way Marvel is portraying them) and is shown in every way to be a poser, wearing a flag he shouldn't be wearing and defending a country he shouldn't be anywhere near...Not to mention being untrained, inexperienced and possessing unpredictable powers.Originally Posted by Dfense75
Joe Q will never be a hero in my book (and with many others, either), he's burned too many bridges with fans of various characters (not just in the Alpha sector)..Pissed too many people off with years of terrible stories, killing characters off and really bad decisions.Originally Posted by Dfense75
