Alpha Flight Special #2

The second chapter of Marvel's four-issue limited series finds Alpha Flight in serious trouble, as Jackson Guice's cover depicts a fierce, bestial Sasquatch tearing into a swarm of green-skinned alien attackers while a red-costumed teammate struggles in their grasp and a blue-uniformed Alphan battles more of the invaders below. The cover blurb teases that one Alphan "turns tail and runs," adding a note of tension that makes this chaotic battle feel even more consequential. With Fabian Nicieza writing and Michael Bair on interior art, "Decisions of Strength" promises the kind of high-stakes team drama that made Canada's premier super-team such a compelling corner of the Marvel Universe in 1991.
