Original Alpha Flight

[Garry/Al-Fan]

Just livin' in the past...

Nice. Going to color it?

[Garry/Al-Fan]

-K-M-:

I don't plan on coloring it, although coloring it would bring volume and 3-dimensionality to the sketches. I've been reading Andy Schmidt's The Insider's Guide to Creating Comics and Graphic Novels; I'm beginning to understand why the big 2 comic companies divide the duties up between a writer, a penciller, an inker, a letterer, and a colorist...so each can bring the best to the story, on-time.

I'm working on the penciller-inker part, at the moment.

So that will be your first page?

One thing I've done - I'm sure you've thought of this already - that makes drawing space easier is to draw a bunch of dots on a page. I then scan it in and flip the colours / make a negative image. It's pretty effective.

Cool. I will try it.

I'm doing things on a broken shoe-string, but I will try it.

It can be my first page, but right now it's just the 2nd illustration in the very, very brief history of Alpha Flight. The 1st illustration [of original Alpha Flight] is the beginning, the 2nd is the middle, and the 3rd one will be the end.

Lol to the way you phrased that, sympathies about it being a thing.

Okay, I'll have to see that when it's done.

Oblivion....or rejuvenation?

[Garry/Al-Fan]

Crazy.
Creepy.
Eerie.

I don't recognise the first two... Jaxom and somebody from v2?

Scroll to the very bottom, dude.

[Le Messor]

The bottom of Garry's post, or the bottoms of the pdfs?

I'm sorry if I'm being dense, but I've read those and I still don't know.

[Garry/Al-Fan]

Scroll to the very bottom, dude.

I'm confused about this, too, unless it refers to the issues the quotes come from...

1) I don't mean to be vague, however if a connection is made between the image and a character during the MANTLO era, so be it.
2) It is the ECLIPTIC.
3) DreamQueen.

Not at all. MARVEL characters are MARVEL characters. Some of the characters are clearly who they are intended to be, some aren't.

[Le Messor]

Thanks, Garry.

Is #1 from volume 2, too, then? I don't know that series so well...

That was what I meant.
