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.

What’s a family gathering without some drama?
Magneto comes to Vision and Wanda’s Thanksgiving dinner and with Captain America, Doctor Strange and other heroes, there’s a bit of tension in the air.
By the end of the issue, Magneto accepts that he has to earn his children’s (and the world’s) forgiveness through his actions.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the art which is a shame because there were quite a few pages where it was just the art.

this was very fun! it’s now thanksgiving and vision & wanda had invited a few of their friends and family over for the holiday.. and yes, that includes magneto.
first off, the way they talked about wanda’s cooking makes me want to try it; and i don’t even like turkey.
and wow, lots of people fancied wanda.. *cough cough* same..
i liked how magneto realized that he has to earn his children’s respect and forgiveness. and that he has chosen to do it with honor, and not the easy way out.
