Alpha Flight #3 (Oct. 1983)

Dear Editor,

I picked up Alpha Flight #3 because of it's awesome cover. And when I read what was inside I wasn't disappointed.

The story itself was decent. I feel like I'm coming into it in the middle (since I haven't read the previous issues) but I certainly want to read more. I also dug the back story for The Master. The phrase "once a jerk—always a jerk" comes to mind.

I also liked Gaurdian's back story that you through in there too. But it did have me wondering why the appearance of the Fantastic Four gave him his "purpose"—his impetus to become Guardian. Was it that he didn't want to be out done by Reed Richards? Or, was it that he wasn't creative enough to think of giving himself super powers before that point?

Either way, I'll be looking forward to reading more Alpha Flight.

Thanks,
Jeff King
