Collected Edition: Episode 110: Alpha Flight

“Oh Canada!”

On this episode we talk about the one and only Canadian super team Alpha Flight written and drawn by John Byrne. This is a very 1980s comic – that can be a good thing and a bad thing. In this case more good than bad. Lots of new situations, new heroes, a new country, and a very daring choice for a particular character’s lifestyle. John Byrne took some chances.

In addition we talk about the new X-Men reboot/relaunch. Is this the new “jumping on” point that we’ve been waiting for? Maybe. Will the uncomplicated narratives last. Probably not.

As always, thanks for listening.
