SHAMAN & TALISMAN

Picture Ash vs Evil Dead but with Zahn McClarnon playing Ash and a young Irene Bedard as his daughter/sidekick

Dr. Michael Twoyoungmen would be thrust back into a world he had tried to escape when a demonic entity began overtaking/corrupting the residents of a small town where his medical practice was set up. It eventually takes his wife who he, initially, hesitates to kill. This cost him his son’s life. This begins the end of his quiet life as he and his daughter move from town to town, hunting the body jumping demons who now also have the mother of his children. Together they do avenge their family. But they keep on moving around and hunting supernatural threats; partially out of guilt for letting the evil spread and partly because it’s their heritage (coming from a long line of sorcerers). It’s while hunting Snowbird, whom they’ve mistaken for a threat, that they first encounter Alpha Flight (and the Wendigo that is also after Narya).

Michael and Elizabeth have a strong bond and a language all their own. He’s protective of his daughter and mostly keeps her out of Flight business. But her fate is pretty much set in stone. She will eventually take his place on the team and inherit the magic medicine pouch.
