Alpha Flight: 10 Things You Need To Know About The MCU's Rumoured Super Team
3. There Are TWO Versions Of The Team
While Alpha Flight have spent the majority of their comic book history protecting Canada from all manner of attack, this was just the first version of the team. Should this be the iteration brought into the franchise, Marvel Studios will have the opportunity to bring in a whole host of new, diverse names to the big screen.
However, there is a second version of the team for which the seeds for an MCU introduction may have already been planted. Brought to the comic books as part of the All New, All Different Marvel, Alpha Flight became a team based in the realms of outer space.
Acting as Earth's first defence against extra-terrestrial threats, though still featuring many of the same members, Alpha Flight's Space Program was vastly different to its first iteration and would be a welcome addition to the wider franchise.
With Nick Fury seemingly kicking off some sort of S.H.I.E.L.D. branch in space during the end credits of Far From Home, this second version of the team may well be the one that is heading to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, rather than the Canadian Avengers.
