the new lineup definately wasn't what i was expecting; not that it's a bad thing. but who would you have picked for the roster? mostly classic characters? Mostly newbies? etc.

Old Puck
Madison Jeffries as Vindicator
Sasquatch
Talisman
Diamond Lil
Wild Child
Northstar

I prefer Snowbird as a separate entity; she doesn't have the best chemistry with the team, but she can be a lucky strike extra. IIRC Jeffries and Diamond Lil are married, so they're a natural fit. Talisman brings the mojo. Puck and Northstar represent the old guard, and I think Northstar will be interesting on the comeback from all that Hydra business. Sasquatch is the muscle. I really don't know the new characters that well, but Purple Girl, Major Maple Leaf, Puck II, etc. didn't do much for me.

I don't think it matters who that characters are if the writing is good. The point was made that the reason all new characters are being brought in is that the old ones didn't do anythign for readers. Well, maybe that's because the writing stunk.

I don't care as long as it has Persuasion. Persuasion is the **** of Alpha Flight!:D

Serioulsly though, I'd also like to see Sasquatch, Nemesis, Talisman, Northstar, Aurora, and Box (Jeffries).

Guardian - I'd accept a new person in this role though
Puck
Sasquatch
Northstar and Aurora - Retaining the power boost given them by The Children
Madison Jeffries
Wolverine - I like him full-time on Alpha Flight a lot more than on the Avengers
Talisman
Fantomex

with perhaps a few new characters

It's not a big change obviously, but Alpha Flight was one of my favorite teams ever.

Sasquatch; I don't care how. He's on the frigging team. No 'Flight' should operate without a big orange fuzzy. But he's never allowed to be the leader again.

Snowbird; The real goddess of the Marvel Universe. I'd like to see her on a leadership role if they go after mythical baddies.

Aurora; Let the poor crazy girl go home with friends and family who love her.

Persuasion; Because I'd like to see her back into the titles to deal with the crap her father's been doing 'lately'.

Guardian; Someone new. Maybe a Vindicator. One of the old Beta Flight kids would do who got depowered and is furious to find out what happened to Alpha Flight.

Box; Because Jefferies needs love, too.

Puck; Because Sasquatches cannot function without bickering with a Puck.

I'd go with a classic lineup, plus Wolverine. I'd have Quesada hyping up Wolverine's presence on the book big time, claiming that my lineup will split the internet in half. I'd make sure Wolverine was on every cover, and that his name was featured prominently above Omega Flight in the title. This would ensure that the book would experience huge sales, and keep it from cancellation.

Wolverine
Guardian/Vindicator - Heather, not Mac.
Puck
Talisman
Snowbird
Sasquatch
Northstar and Aurora
Madison Jeffries

Major Mapleleaf (http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/mmleaf.htm)-- Canada's original super-Mountie from World War II, convinced to come out of retirement by the Canadian government to lead the new Omega Flight (a team mandated to defend Canada's southern border against the influx of super-powered refugees fleeing America's Super-Hero Registration Act); haunted by the recent death of his youngest son who carried on his name, Mapleleaf struggles to hold the new Omega Flight together while battling his own personal demons

U.S. Agent (http://www.marvel.com/universe/U.S.Agent) -- the Commission of Superhuman Activities' most trusted international operative, sent to Canada to coordinate efforts between the Canadian and U.S. governments in apprehending wanted U.S. super-criminals attempting to flee the nation; as a courtesy to the U.S., Canada names him as second-in-command of the new Omega Flight team -- but U.S. Agent thinks he's more qualified than Major Mapleleaf and second-guesses him at every turn (the proverbial Starscream to Mapleleaf's Megatron)

Vindicator (http://www.marvel.com/universe/Vindicator_(Heather_Hudson)) -- ever since the recent death of her husband (Canada's Guardian), Heather Hudson has juggled her role as a single mother with her desire to keep her husband's legacy alive; fueled by anger at her husband's pointless death, the increasingly violent Heather is becoming a true force of vindication (which is the main reason the Canadian government did not trust her in a leadership capacity with the new Omega Flight)

Snowbird (http://www.marvel.com/universe/Snowbird) -- descended from the Goddess of the Northern Lights, Snowbird has joined the team to be there for her friend Vindicator in her time of need and convinced her husband Yukon Jack to join as well; Snowbird is very distressed at the inclusion of Yeti on the team, and is in a constant state of uneasiness in his presence as she senses a great mystical evil emanating from within the beast -- and Yeti's dislike of Snowbird seems mutual

Yukon Jack (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukon_Jack) -- his real name unpronounceable to mere mortals, this demigod from the ancient civilization of Kemteron deep in the Canadian wilderness has no interest in the affairs of mortals and has agreed to join Omega Flight only at the request of his new bride, Snowbird; constantly aloof, he associates only with his Snowbird and Yeti

Yeti (http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/yetiwend.htm) -- once a cannibalistic, frenzied killer, this long-term Canadian government operative (with rumored connections to the Wendigo) has been placed on Omega Flight, much to the dismay of many high ranking Canadian officials; but, for reasons yet to be revealed, his beastial bloodlust seems to be lulled whenever in the presence of Yukon Jack

Le Beaver (http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/beaver.htm) -- Omega Flight's tech-specialist; granted membership when Quebec demanded representation on the team
