NO. There is nothing bad about the John Byrne Alpha Flight run. Pure brilliance from start to finish. Burns has been wanting this book for ages and throws it all away at the final hurdle
They'll be buyers remorse on that Primal, mark my words!!!

Burns has been wanting this book for ages and throws it all away at the final hurdle They'll be buyers remorse on that Primal, mark my words!!! There will not be any remorse. I had a shot of that Primal at TF Nation and it's great fun. I had been waiting for it to drop to a sensible price. It's the kind of daft toy I like. Alpha Flight can wait until late Jan pay. Marvel Age Omnibus and ROMnibus Vol 1 are a priority as they have not been available in collected form previously. -Ralph

Andu: Byrne Alpha Flight is one of my favourite runs ever. Destiny of the Daleks is your favourite Dalek story, you think Gooderson is a better Davros than Tromelly. What's your point caller?

I am a man of taste and distinction Pish and Tosh. Alpha Flight was mediocre storytelling, with nice art. Master of the World and that Plodex bollock, away and shite.

Marvel Age Omnibus ordered! They saw me coming. I am amazed a Volume 1 even exists of this.
Uncanny Omar confirmed the Transformers article is intact.

As for Omnibii, the two Spidey Clone Saga volumes, Handbook Master Edition 1, Micronauts 1 and ROMnibus 1 and 2 are the 'must-buys' for 2024.
I can see myself caving on X-Men 2099 though.

If Phil tries to tell you the other half is in an Alpha Flight book, don't believe him.

You can't see the forum's current time but you can see what time a post was made. Books etc's stock levels can be easily determined using the same method for (IIRC) Robotkingdom and BBTS
