I shall try to have all the upper-lip stiffness of a British "navel" officer.

I'm not going to be able to match your talent on these belly puns, but my own will be shaking with laughter, that's for sure.

HPL: Howard Phillip Lovecraft. "Father of the Chthulu Mythos." His stories, about ancient extra-dimensional entities with tongue-twisting names seeking to re-invade our dimension, sort of bridged the gap between 19th-century Gothic horror and 20th century science fiction. Omnicron reminds me of just such a Lovecraftian entity.

I read issues 4-6 last night, and was surprised to see that the DC writers also (like me) had decided to send members of Quest team to the lost valley, and also developed a Mightor legacy concept there (or am I tipping off my own future chapters)? Anyway, thankfully my story still goes in different directions, despite a couple of similarities.
I mainly wrote this story for fanfiction and to entertain my own urge for more 1960s HB, but decided to incorporate some gts elements so that it could be of entertainment value here as well.

Hey-hey! Welcome home. :-)
I've been reading the FQ comic book, myself. And I like how DC/Warner has remained faithful to the original cartoons (most of which are or will be celebrating the golden anniversary of their original telecasts!) while simultaneously being innovative. For example: a female Impossible; Birdman's wings being solidified holograms (ancient astronaut tech from the "Tomb" of Ra?); and Mightor's club being as much a legacy as a Green Lantern power ring (in this case, going to an African-American adolescent who likes dinosaurs).*
As a late-blooming fan of HPL, I also like the Chthulu-esque plot device tying the adaptation of all these superhero cartoons, together.
*Who knows? Chuck and Nancy might even wind up getting back to Maine, once and for all!

Thanks for the welcome. I don't have much (in the way of time or ideas) to bring to the table actually, that's new. Just 8 chapters of this and then a 4 chapter crossover set in the 30th Century called, "The Jetsons Meet the Legion of Super-Heroes".
I must be tired. What's HPL?
