Steve Englehart went to Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. After a stint in the Army, he moved to New York and began to write for Marvel Comics. That led to long runs on Captain America, The Hulk, The Avengers, Dr. Strange, and a dozen other titles. Midway through that period he moved to California (where he remains), and met and married his wife Terry.
He was finally hired away from Marvel by DC Comics, to be their lead writer and revamp their core characters (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, and Green Lantern). He did, but he also wrote a solo Batman series (immediately dubbed the "definitive" version) that later became Warner Brothers' first Batman film (the good one).
After that he left comics for a time, traveled in Europe for a year, wrote a novel (The Point Man™), and came back to design video games for Atari (E.T., Garfield). But he still liked comics, so he created Coyote™, which within its first year was rated one of America's ten best series. Other projects he owned (Scorpio Rose™, The Djinn™) were mixed with company series (Green Lantern [with Joe Staton], Silver Surfer, Fantastic Four). Meanwhile, he continued his game design for Activision, Electronic Arts, Sega, and Brøderbund.
And once he and Terry had their two sons, Alex and Eric, he naturally told them stories. Rustle's Christmas Adventure was first devised for them. He went on to add a run of mid-grade books to his bibliography, including the DNAgers™ adventure series, and Countdown to Flight, a biography of the Wright brothers selected by NASA as the basis for their school curriculum on the invention of the airplane.
In 1992 Steve was asked to co-create a comics pantheon called the Ultraverse. One of his contributions, The Night Man, became not only a successful comics series, but also a television show. That led to more Hollywood work, including animated series such as Street Fighter, GI Joe, and Team Atlantis for Disney.

September 28, 2021Did not read this issue but I DID read about this moment and I thought it was pretty cool…
Vision looks very similar to his body's original appearance; The first Human Torch!)

some pretty gripping drama is happening throughout this issue and i’m here for it.
i won’t give too much away but wow.. most definitely a piece in which keeps you entertained from beginning all the way to the end.
since i’m slighty more than halfway done, this series is going pretty good so far! a bit slow at first, but then we zoomin’!
3.5 stars!!

I'm reading this series of comics since I'm watching WandaVision i felt curiosity for the comics. I love Vision and Wanda's relationship in the comics. It's amazing how they understand each other and how complex Wanda is as character.

Tuve antes algún tebeo Marvel de segunda mano (creo que el primero fue uno de los primeros Hulka de Bruguera que empieza con una splash de ella despertando en la cama), pero este número fue el primero que me compré yo después de verlo en el quiosco de Hospitalet, y lo releí muchísimas veces, intrigado por la historia secreta que planteaba (que tardaría mucho en saber que, en parte, era retrocontinuidad), por el atrevimiento que sugería (enseñar brujería filosófica, plantear infidelidades entre héroes) y por las imágenes potentrd que contenía (Visión y su mano, Visión al despertar, Visión en el espacio... volando hacia atrás). Aún hoy, tiene un lugar muy especial en mi corazón.
