Hey JB,
If you had been on ALPHA FLIGHT longer, do you think you would have brought back Guardian (by which I mean the original), or would you have preferred to let Hudson stay dead?
Thanks!

I like the character Heather became after Mac's death, but it is interesting to wonder what would have happened had JB stayed on AF and had the real Mac return to life. I think they would've still loved one another, but would they still be compatible? I don't think so. 

Care to give your view, JB?

This scenario is so unlikely, it feels like you are wondering about an alternate universe which is taken over by alternate-alternate beings.

JB: Yes.

LOL!
Well played, sir.
I tend to think Mark is right on this one, that Mac would not have returned for real had JB stayed on the book. His ending was pretty definite and didn't offer a lot of wiggle room. Bringing him back might satisfy those who want a "Hollywood ending" for the guy (and for Heather) but life doesn't always work out that way.
Thanks!
