Titania
Black Cat or Black Widows
Look at cmdrkoenig67's list. All 12 of his guesses were correct.
As for the three in the background that no one can identify because they're too small, here's a hint . . .
. . . they're grouped together for a reason.
Well, considering you said Dana got 9/15, and don't tell us WHICH 9 are correct...
Okay, I can see Domino and Dagger now (mistook them for Black Cat and White Queen respectively). The three, after I thought about it a little, realised are Satana Hellstrom (Hellcat's Sister-in-Law), Jennifer Kale and Topaz from the new book 'Witches' (by Bronwyn Carlton and Mike Deodato Jr), and the only other person I can think of for the one I thought was Titania might be Medusa of the Inhumans.

4 Crystal

Not bad! You guessed about 25 out of 46 correctly.Originally Posted by cmdrkoenig67
LOL, Skull, will you PLEASE stop with the cloak and dagger (no pun intended). if you know something, please tell us, like WHICH 21 Dana got wrong! It's rather quite irritating!

Some of those characters I have not seen around much in a while. Meltdown where is she now? Moondragon and Meggan whatever happened to them?

Sorry to be so irritating, Allan, but I'm an employee of Marvel privy to some inside information and I have to be very careful with what I reveal. The writers of the new Handbooks have made it a policy to not reveal who's going to be featured in each Handbook until it's released. So, by telling you who you got wrong, I'll indirectly be telling you who's featured in the Handbook (plus it makes the guessing game too easy).Originally Posted by HappyCanuck
C'mon, you can wait one more day, right?
But, to show you I'm not such a bad guy, I'll list the titles of the books that some of the as-of-yet-unguessed characters first appeared in:
INHUMANS (vol. 2)
TALES OF SUSPENSE (vol. 1)
STRANGE TALES (vol. 1)
SPIDER-MAN AND HIS AMAZING FRIENDS
DR. STRANGE (vol. 2)
X-MEN (vol. 1)
THUNDERBOLTS (vol. 1)
RUNAWAYS (vol. 1)
FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL
CAPTAIN AMERICA (vol. 1)
SUB-MARINER (vol. 1)
CAPTAIN BRITAIN (vol. 1)
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (vol. 1)
WHAT IF? (vol. 2)
THOR (vol. 2)
Hmmm . . . some of those offer absolutely no help at all, while others practically give the character away!
Well, I can tell you that if you pick up the WOMEN OF 2005 Handbook on Wednesday, January 26, you'll get the answer to 2/3 of your questions!Originally Posted by Richv1
lol, sorry for coming down so hard on you, Skull, it was unintentional (yet to find a good emoticon to demonstrate that I'm less than what I appear)
Since this is an on-going battle (far too often, in fact; I blame the fact that written communication shows less infliction than verbal), any time I mean my words to be less harsh and more towards jovial, I shall use this ' ' (a nice random emoticon) to denote it. Should save a lot of trouble.
As for your reasonings for the cloak and dagger, I will agree they are justified, however, rubbing it in that you know more than we do isn't endearing. I can tell you are bursting wanting to tell us, but can't. I suggest being more coy. In a case like this, less is more.

No problemo, Allan. I wasn't offended at all.Originally Posted by HappyCanuck
And I apologize if the Handbook guessing games make it seem like I'm trying to rub it in that I know more than you do. That's not my intentional at all. I just view it as a fun way to generate interest in the product and remind ALPHA FLIGHT fans that a Handbook featuring ALPHA FLIGHT characters comes out this week. Gotta keep them sales figures up!
And just to rub things in a little more, there will be more Handbooks in the coming months that feature additional ALPHA FLIGHT characters . . . but I can't talk about those just yet!
WHA-HOOOOOOOOO!Originally Posted by skullogeist
Now if only another (and better, with the original Alphans...like it should be done) AF series was coming out soon.
