Yup...   It looks like 'Alpha' wont be the normal large launch to a cross-over, but an anthology of where characters are.  A mega-catch up issue. "

Looks pretty damn good. Hope a few of these mutants are killed in the first issue so we get more focused panel time with the rest.

Cant wait. Wish Chris Bachalo was doing some of the interior art as well though.

OMG. I CANNOT wait for this. I'm such a fangirl for alternate realities.

At least we know the devil girl is Pixie.

I like the last image but a lot of it just isn't for me

kool cant wait

I'm super excited (not that I wasn't already)
And another group appearance by Chamber, can't wait to see him

Looks Kinda Meh to me but i Still most likely will pick it up

Looks like they  went hmm lets mix Gambit with metal gear solid characters and see what comes up  in terms of design to me. Comic page has the classic Snake look and cover art looks like hes stolen Raidens costume.

I love the Arcade page. Looks like Basilisk was used as an executor of his own race. What a messed up but terribly interesting idea. 
 
I wonder why he's walking away on the page where they're gathered around the camp fire?

Wow, where's Emma Frost? Why is Cyclops in that godawful face mask? And please, someone assure me the whole team isn't going all 'Magneto mutant revolution' on us. Please.
So on the neglected characters end, it looks like we have Husk making appearances (defending Cannonball, no surprise). And Chamber. I just really hope someone doesn't try to put them back together. 
Oh, and is that Dazzler? What is with these new costumes?!

so i guess this isn't what my grandfather would call "A Talkie"
