To my mind Steve Englehart was the most interesting and exciting comic book writer of the 1970's. When I found out that he had stopped writing comic books to do a novel, I was a little disappointed.

In the early 1980's, Vietnam vet and DJ, Max August became involved with the magician Cornelius Agrippa, discovered his own magical talents and was able to make himself "timeless", so that he no longer ages. However, Agrippa and Max's girlfriend Valerie were killed by the demon Aleksandra.

Few comic book writers successfully make the transition to novels. Conversely, few authors successfully make the transition to comic books.
