Title:
Alpha Flight
Synopsis:
Yesterday Man
While following Marrina‘s signal, Alpha Flight’s Omni-Jet is shot at and crashes, with no causalities. Guardian, Sasquatch, Northstar, and Aurora emerge from the wreck and make their way to a nearby complex. Inside, sliding walls separate the twins from Mac and Sasquatch. Trying to find another way out, Northstar is struck unconscious by the complex, and Aurora gets trapped between rods that close in on her from very direction, causing her to panic and revert into the timid Jeanne-Marie persona.
Thankfully, Mac and Sasquatch soon arrive on the scene, but without Northstar, Jeanne-Marie will be more of a burden to them. Sasquatch is rather puzzled by Aurora’s strange behavior. He gets angry at Guardian for not telling the team about Aurora’s psychological problems.
Separated from the others, Northstar comes around and hears Marrina scream. She is being tortured by the Master of the World, who reveals his origin to her.
About 40.000 years ago, shortly after he was banished from his primitive tribe, he felt a strange call and found himself summoned to a crashed spaceship. He was captured by the devices inside and dissected, with his brain becoming part of the ship. Over time, he took control of it, and having mastered the alien technology, he created himself a new body. The Master tells Marrina that her origins, too, lie within this ship, and he has to destroy her before he will take over the world.
At this time, the Sub-Mariner and Invisible Woman arrive on scene.
Outside the base, Snowbird arrives at the crash site. Using her post-cognitive abilities, she finds out what happened to her teammates. Transforming into a polar bear, she follows them into the Master’s base.
========================
Purpose
Mac is on a downer after stealing his suit until he is visited by Heather McNeil. The two converse, and Mac is worried he will be going to prison. Heather tells him that a wife can not testify against her husband and that she has had feelings for Mac. Hudson is rather amazed. He only barely knows her, and besides, she is still seventeen. Heather tells him to get his act together.
She arranges a meeting with a high-ranking government official two days later. They tell him Mac‘s story about how he designed and built the cybernetic helmet before he began working for AM-CAM and doesn’t want to go to prison over it. Soon, the government official tells Mac that the Canadian government is prepared to pay any damages to AM-CAM, and the Prime Minister wants to meet with him.
Over the next 3 years, Hudson finds time to marry Heather, and they later discover Wolverine. During this time period, Department H begins to become a reality, especially with the public awareness of the Fantastic Four. Mac decides that perhaps Canada needs its own superheroes.
