Spotlight on... PROCTOR!

[Douglas Mangum]

Ahhhhh...the 90's. The breakaway success of the X-Men in that decade led many Marvel properties to copy elements of that franchise. One oft repeated idea was a long-running subplot involving a villain with mysterious motives that would hook the audience into coming back month after month. For the 30th anniversary of the Avengers franchise, they got Proctor and the Gatherers Saga. The enigmatic Proctor struck at the Avengers from afar, scheming towards an uncertain goal beneath chromium foil covers. His endgame even opened the door for the next Most 90's saga of Avengers history...the Crossing. Today's article explains what Proctor and the Gatherers were truly after as they menaced the Avengers.
