About the series

Canada's premier super-team, Alpha Flight debuted from Marvel in 1983 and ran for 130 issues, largely shaped by the visionary pencils and scripts of John Byrne alongside later writers Bill Mantlo and Simon Furman. The series followed the government-sanctioned heroes—including the conflicted Jeanne-Marie Beaubier and her bright alter ego Aurora, the mystical Michael Twoyoungmen, and the transformed Walter Langkowski—as they balanced national duty with personal turmoil. Its legacy lies in championing a distinctly Canadian corner of the Marvel Universe, blending superhero action with deep character drama and a sense of northern identity.
