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.

Actual rating 3.7 stars.
Vision and Wanda are a good team together.
It was also good to see Simon aka Wonder Man stand up, accept his faults and decide it was time to move on with his life.
The one thing I really didn’t like about this issue was that both Vision and Wonder Man can fly and yet they let their brother fall to his death? Seriously??
Anyway, fun side note; Vision is the first to bring up wanting a baby with Wanda!

Brothers #2 (of 12)
(Conclusion to The West Coast Crossover)
⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 stars
This one gave me a better understanding of whose mind belongs to who, what body's reincarnated back in a different form, and why that makes particular characters technically related. It gets crazy but this best explained it in a way that made sense to me. It gets a tad mushy but there's quite a bit of action in here. I LOVED the energicages. They were illustrated and colored really neat, much better than in WCA #2.
New character(s) I met:
• Mockingbird- Hawkeye's Wife
— Former agent, now is a stay-at-home Mom with the kids
• Goliath- Giant villain, working for the Grim Reaper

oh iron man, you calling ultron a rust bucket was funny; even more so since your 80’s suit looks like a soda can lol!
to be honest, so far this comic has been a bit mundane, even though i’m only 2 issues in. i’ll still continue on with reading, for i feel like i’m judging a bit too quickly.
i did enjoy simon’s little heart-to-heart moment with his brother eric. we always need those in marvel.

La verdad casi me perdí porque demore en continuar la historia pero cada vez está más interesante.
Los planes se van revelando, los enemigos también y tanto Visión como Wanda demuestran ser increíbles héroes.
Me intriga saber que quiere hacer el Segador con ese cuerpo que parece su hermano, será como traerlo a la vida supongo y por eso también tiene en su poder al hombre maravilla.
Está muy interesante

Estuvo mucho más lento que el anterior y con bastante texto para mi gusto, pero la historia estuvo bien y los personajes son entretenidos.
