In "Waxing Poetic 1 of 2," Alpha Flight faces a shattered reality when a mission to New York unravels into a timeline where Canada lies in ruins, consumed by Plodex aliens and nuclear fire. With the fate of the nation hanging in the balance, Nemesis sends Zuzha back in time to alter the past—and Guardian must decide whether to follow orders or protect his homeland. Written by Scott Lobdell and illustrated by Clayton Henry, with inks by Mark Morales and colors by Digital Rainbow, this pivotal issue sets a course where loyalty, legacy, and the future of Canada collide. The cover, by Clayton Henry and Mark Morales, captures the tension of a world on the brink.
In "Days of Future Present, Past Participle Part 2," Alpha Flight grapples with the unintended consequences of altering the past when their attempt to prevent Jimmy Hudson’s confrontation with Jerry Jaxon unleashes an army of Box robots. With Sasquatch calculating the ripple effects, Centennial is sent back once more—this time to ensure Hudson faces Jaxon, hoping to restore balance, only to trigger a new crisis: a relentless acid rain threatening to consume Canada.
In "Days of Future Present, Past Participle Part 3," Jo and the remnants of Alpha Flight face the crumbling aftermath of a timeline where Canada lies in ruins—burned by Plodex invaders and nuclear fire. When Nemesis sends Zuzha back to alter the past, the fate of the nation hinges on whether Guardian will heed her warning and return to defend Canada, or follow the path that led to its downfall.
In "Days of Future Present, Past Participle Part 4," a fractured timeline forces the new Alpha Flight to confront their legendary predecessors when Nemesis manipulates the future into a world where Guardian rules with an iron fist. As the two teams clash, Sasquatch turns to Shaman, whose magic offers the only hope to restore what's been broken—leading to a moment of chaos, a medicine pouch, and a reunion that defies time itself.
