This was interesting. I was wondering when people would start writing Hope fic, and you did it in such a way that leaves you room for more, without disrupting canon.
Thank you. That was fairly easy to do by following the conventions of the Stratmeyer Method, since superhero comics only modify it.
Do you have plans for more Hope/Nancy Drew stories?
Look higher up in the comments.
Where would you like to see the actual canon go with Hope?
"The reason why children are so drawn to mystery stories is because they are spending all their time figuring out the Real World." That's from an analysis of the popularity of Stratmeyer's works. Realistically, Hope has a lot of things to figure out about herself, the world, and her place in it.
While there are many parallels between Hope and Magneto, her closest RL counterpart is Jiddu Krishnamurti. That would suggest that the first time she experiences the death of a loved one she's liable to go off in a direction that her followers predicted, but which nonetheless leaves them floundering in the dust of her wake. Of course, that might be asking a bit much of Marvel in the literary department.
