Oh, my, this is going to get quite interesting before it's over. I do like the way they're training up "Hiss" and it'll be interesting to see what happens when the Red Skull and his minions attack; methinks his ability to knock out electronics could have some very interesting effects on the attckers weaponry.
I do agree that the change in EiC's at Marvel was deleterious to Steve Engelhart; rally a pity 'cause he was quite imaginative. BTW, if you can find his modern fantasy novel, "The Point Man", in a used bookstore, it's a good read. It's a paperback so it should be affordable. chuckle You have to enjoy a main character who's a DJ with the air-name of "Barnaby Wilde".

Englehart is my favorite writer. But this fic in crossing over more with Mark Grunwald than Steve Englehart. Still. . . I read the Point man when it first came out.
I hope to make this an interesting fic about the prehogwarts years and a 3-way war between the Serpent Society, the Red SKull and the former Death Eaters.
This war will shape Harry so that when he gets to Hogwarts, Dumbledore won't know what to do.
