    I stumbled upon his the author's works recently. Holy shit. They're definitely unique as all hell. Example. Sailor Moon-SelfInsert where mary sue becomes Spider-Man and has various villains thrown at him. Goblin, Ninjas, Venom, Carnage. And the Sailor Scouts get pwned. I actually read half of it and enjoyed it. Got too much for me, though.

    Which is what happens with most of his fics. Got half-way through this one and just put it down.

    You can't take it seriously, none of his works you can, if you do it'll just piss you off. He can write well and engaging scenes, though he needs work on his action scenes and pacing them; they tend to drag out. Which suffers a lot in this story.

    Characters do seem a little stilted at times, and tend to not to develop a lot of depth. However, the wild ride is worth it for a time. Yet, the absurdity does eventually become overwhelming.

    I will say that this story belongs in the Recycling Bin. 3/5. It was fun for a while.

    Crap on a sandwich, has it really been three years since Gogolu spurted his fanboy juices all over the forum? Are you a good necromancer, or a bad necromancer?

    Since then, Carrot's gotten even more pretentious and is calling hisself 'Contrabardus' now.

    Story-wise, the SI is drifting to the Vader side of the Farce. Harry's gone and rescued his parents back in the past, but had a youthful indiscretion whilst time-lost, and now his 11-year-old son is attending Hogwarts. And Freddie Krueger is growing out of control.

    Yeah, I'm not bothering with spoiler tags. You're better off using your own imagination than read a ton of chapters of Dark Helmet playing with his dolls again.
