Actually, look for a guy in a "Save the Trees" shirt, he might be on Sasquatch's shoulder in your front yard. Mind you, that guy wouldn't be me...it would just be interesting if you went looking for such a person, and he were actually there.
EccentricSage!...You should be careful! Now you've piqued my interest. And, if there is even a HINT of seriousness there, I'm both flattered and honoured.Well, if you're ever in Chicago, I guess I've got a date.
Unfortunately, my bank account informs me I won't be making any long trips to Chicago soon (uh, long as in "long drive" or "long distance", not meaning long as in "staying forever" or "moving in", heh heh...I'll be quiet now...). Although, if you were to tell me you have season tickets to the Blackhawks, i might just sell everything I own and be there, say, now! lol
E.S., if you ever want to check out the sunny Okanagan Valley, the ultimate holiday and retirement destination in Canada, come on by and I'll give you the tour! "We've got government subsidized health care!"

Maybe someone could do an interview with Mark, Fred, Greg, and Dale (and the rest of the creative team and some other folks from editorial) a la the old Comics Feature or Comics Journal, and hopefully find out the reasons behind the cancellation and what plans, if any, are in the works.
Cynical me, I'm not surprised this happened, although this is a better-executed version than certain volumes that shall remain..2 and 3.
I hope the finale is superb!
I pretty much just lurk here but felt i had tobadd my two cents. I have been collecting marvel comics since volume 1. This latest move by marvel has now caused me to do something i never thought i would do. I am going to drop all of my marvel books except punisher. I currently get over 20 marvel books but found other than alpha flight and frank castle's books i was only buying them out of habbit. So this may be a business decision for marvel but it is for me too. Dynamite and dc will continue to get my money. Marvel, not so much.
I haven't seen this anywhere on the alphaflight.net yet so figured I post it here. Axel Alonso was asked (a softball question) about Alpha Flight's cancellation, and chose to answer it by not answering it, but instead telling us to buy the new series' that are coming out to replace cancelled series'.
Read it here. CAUTION: SPOILER PAGES FOR ISSUE #6.
The relevant part is near the bottom.

Yah, pretty weak.
Keep your stick on the ice.
Live it.
that is what I dont understand. Marvel cancels a book I enjoy and expects me to support their new titles? I dont care about the scarlet spider or venom or a seventh deadpool book. With dc's new 52 and marvel cancelling alpha and me dropping most of their books as a result, i am going to be saving a lot of cash come february.
