Alpha Flight (and therefore Guardian) cameo in Fantastic Four #643

The images below were revealed exclusively on avclub.com on February 19th.

The book's villain (whose name escapes me now) has unleashed a worldwide invasion of some sort (bear with me, I don't read the book) and we are shown the impact in various parts of the world. Naturally, that means that we get a brief window on Canada and therefore Alpha Flight, and therefore Guardian.

Looks like two-page spread...


...and here's the page with Guardian specifically (third panel, to the left):


Based on the 2-page version, looks like Guardian is getting a save from the wife. Or ex-wife. Who knows anymore?

May as well take the opportunity to display another such occurrence. The partial page below is from the third issue of the Citizen V and the V-Battalion mini series from mid 2002.


Lol...I never really read this book so I didn't really acknowledge that Flag-Smasher is a part of it. Pitabow Comics has spoiled that character for me forever (not that it would have taken an awful lot, since F-S is not particularly accomplished in villainy). Flag-Smasher is a recurring villain in Pitabow's Alpha Flight comic strip and he's not very successful in that, either. Blow up the image below for an example.
