Typing this on a shitty flight out of Symkaria. Not exactly a vacation spot.
Upshot is that North, one of Logan's former Weapon X buddies, caught up with Daniel Lyman, William Stryker's former number two on the program. Other than an assassination attempt on his life, we found out a few things. There are other Weapon X teams out there, and they may have been activated.
I'm going to get Adrienne to read the tags Logan found, but I'm willing to bet that they've never even been handled by someone. This is too nicely put together a program for there to be that obvious a trail.
Basically, we've ruled out that the attack was random. Someone was obviously gunning for Alpha Flight, and it was someone that had both the means and the ability to wait for the right time to strike. It is tempting to say that it is elements of Weapon X, but that could be a false clue to lead us off the real person. Regardless, it looks pretty much certain that the target wasn't the installation; it was the team.
Lyman mentioned something about looking to who takes advantage of Alpha Flight getting cut? Motive is a powerful factor, but I don't see anyone that would have a specific advantage to target us. Magneto, the Preservers... hell, SHIELD? Canada hasn't had a team working in five years. Who benefits from them not having one now?
Anyhow, be careful. If Alpha Flight was the target, it might still be the target, and that means each and everyone one of us could be on the list.
