* ArtisticLicencePhysics: The Purple Woman uses MindControl to turn a crowd of civilians into a huge humanoid BodyOfBodies to attack AlphaFlight. As you might expect, the SquareCubeLaw is ignored - but this wider trope also comes into play because the normal people composing the giant are simply holding on to each other. Despite the impact of movement and punches, it doesn't fall apart.

The series, set in the shared Franchise/MarvelUniverse, spins out of ''ComicBook/FearItself'', a CrisisCrossover running through many Marvel comics. An ancient god of fear has awoken, and his enchanted hammers have possessed and empowered both heroes and villains.
One of those villains is Attuma of Atlantis, now remade as Nerkkod, Breaker of Oceans. He leads an army out of the Pacific Ocean, besieging Vancouver. Alpha Flight, as Canada's premier superheroes, stand ready to stop him.
Unfortunately, Nerkkod is just the most obvious problem. There's someone else in the shadows who sees this disaster as an opportunity, and while Alpha Flight's distracted by gods and champions, they have a far-reaching scheme of their own.
The first issue, the 'POINT ONE' introduction (#0.1), was released on 18 May, 2011. Issue #1 was released #15 June, 2011. The series ended with #8, released 25 Jan, 2012.
