The aforementioned X-Men and Fantastic Four franchises give Marvel Studios hundreds of new characters to play with, and one lot that's reportedly a priority for them in the not too distant future is fan-favourite Canadian superhero team Alpha Flight.

Closely tied to Wolverine's early years as a hero, the group first appeared in the pages of 1979's Uncanny X-Men #120, and they're essentially Canada's Avengers. Now, a new rumor claims that the studio has plans to introduce the team in a future project. Alpha Flight works for Department H, and are a formidable, diverse group of heroes who would definitely bring a lot to the MCU

Marvel Studios has never really explored the concept of an international team like this (Captain Britain, for example, still hasn't appeared despite MCU adventures like Thor: The Dark World and Spider-Man: Far From Home), so it would be something fresh for this shared world.

It's worth noting that another version of Alpha Flight was led by Captain Marvel, so perhaps that the team Marvel Studios plans to bring to the big or small screen? Either wait, it's an intriguing prospect.
