We joined the GateCrashers podcast to talk about, what else, fanfiction! We had a great discussion with Dan and Ashley about some of the history of fanfic, what we love about it, and how it’s changed with the internet and fandom through the years.

Meet Hard Boiled Henwy! Scourge of all!

So in another post, I made reference to hard Boiled Henwy, and was asked for an explanation by @thefingerfuckingfemalefury ... Which is a reasonable request.

Back in the 90's, the Britain based x-book Excalibur had sort of fallen into an unsatisfying langour.

After the gleeful insanity of the early Chris Claremont written, Alan Davis pencilled romps involving the Warwolves, the Crazy Gang and the Cross Time Caper (Even if that DID go on too long). Davis left after 17 issues, and Claremont after 27 issues, and no one seemed to quite know how to deal with a team which wasn't the usual X-Men fare.

So, in issue 42, Alan Davis returned as artist AND writer and the series reached new heights, as Davis did know how to deal with them and had no problem embracing the weird and just plain cosmically silly! It's hard to think of a better exemplar than this, the cover of Davis' first issue

And worry not, we are soon to meet this agent of doom! And even witness his creation!

Because Davis immediately returns to one of the most outlandish teams introduced in the title: The Technet! The Technet are a VERY long story in and of themselves (Involving Alan Moore, Alan Davis, Doctor Who Weekly, and Captain Britain), but they are summarised in the first panel, so don't worr about it.

Just know that Gatecrasher is the large lady who leads this motley team, and she has a grudge against the Excalibur team, and has a capture contract on Phoenix to deliver.

So we cut to the Excalibur team having breakfast in their lighthouse home (and base of operations) which is going normally, until Meggan tries to boil an egg.

What horror could emerge? What unspeakable nightmare lurks within this calcium cage?

If you guessed a psychopathic, genetically engineered, self-destructing Tweety Bird, congratulations!

Now, whilst Henwy is something of a one shot wonder (literally) fret not, because Gatecrasher can, and has, made others in the years since, all called Hard Boiled Henwy because why change a winning formula?
