“Building Blocks Part 4: Strength”

In "Building Blocks Part 4: Strength," Alpha Flight faces their greatest challenge yet as Wolverine and Heather clash with Wildchild and Gamma Flight in a battle that tests loyalty and legacy. With Mac revealing how he survived the suit explosion from years prior and Puck returning to the team, the group stands united against the Master of the World—ultimately earning the Canadian government’s official reinstatement and marking a turning point in their history. Written by Fabian Nicieza and illustrated by Michael Bair with inks by Mike Manley, colors by Bob Sharen, and letters by Janice Chiang, this pivotal issue sees Heather adopt the new name Guardian and Mac become Vindicator, all under Jim Lee’s dynamic cover.
