Hell, that didn’t even take four issues to lose my interest. A hero turned villain with freckles just don’t cut it.
I’d bet The Purple Woman is somehow controlling her.
But, yes, the writing on this thing is crap.

I don’t know… I enjoyed both the #0.1 and 1 issues. Alpha Flight’s book is one of the few to make Fear Itself truly interesting as a concept for me…
Being a Marvel fan I have to say this is one of their few titles which take place in the main Marvel universe that can’t hold my interest. I did dig the first issue but that was about it.
Maybe it’s due to the references to previous Alpha Flight members/story lines/interactions that is the problem as it’s a series I could never fully get into. I’ve read pieces on and off but have skipped so much of it that I don’t really know the characters enough to appreciate some of the interactions. (That’s my only guess why I can’t really enjoy this one at least.)
