Harry Potter & the Wizards of M

by Dylan Wolf

This is a substitution story. Marvel characters, mostly from the X-Men, have been substituted for the cast of Harry Potter. It has a lot of humor, but also a lot of more serious bits. More details and a cast list in the Prologue. Hope you enjoy. Comments and critiques welcome.

1. Prologue

Prologue: "Cast and Concept"

This is a substitution story. Marvel characters, mostly from the X-Men, have been substituted for the cast of Harry Potter. The trades and personalities are by no means exact. For example: Havok and Corsair are twins, older siblings of Scott and Rachel who are also twins. Cable is in the place of their older brother, Percy. Nathan definitely has Cable's personality, not Percy's, while Alex and Chris have more of a balance. Scott and Rachel definitely have the Marvel personalities, and Jean is Jean. Logan is Harry with Wolverine's attitude. Wanda, Lorna and Pietro are triplets; Wanda and Lorna (who are substitutes mostly for the Patil twins, but are Lensherrs in this case) are both Gryffindors. Pietro, of course, is Slytherin.

Emma Frost is a beautiful and sophisticated female Snape. Her reasons for disliking Harry stem from losing James Potter to Lily Evans and constantly seeing Lily in Harry's eyes looking out of James' face. Kingsley Shacklebolt, by the way, will be played by Sean Cassidy. The relationship w. Moira remains, making for an interesting dynamic. Professor Quirrell, of course, will be played by Professor Quirrell. I'm not replacing him. Sirius is Remy LeBeau, Remus is Jack Russell and Tonks is Domino. Fawkes will be played by the Phoenix Force and boy is it pissed. Peeves is Wade Wilson and the magical bus and its crew will be played by the A-Team because it's twisted. Edwin Jarvis, on the other hand, is on staff at Hogwarts, overseeing the kitchen and housekeeping, simply because I didn't want to do the story without him.

I found a list of Hogwarts students who were in the same class as Harry and the gang. Many of the names never really appeared in the books or movies, or if they did, it was in passing and I missed it. I'm guessing many of them existed only in Ms. Rowling's mind, imagination and notes. I still had more Marvel characters I wanted to have represented, whether I ever use them or not, so I placed them as Unnamed Potter Characters.

In most cases, where there was anything on the character's personality at all, I "TRIED" to match the Marvel character to a similar character. I didn't always succeed, of course, and when in doubt almost always leaned towards the Marvel character. To fill the first years I wanted in some Houses, I took older characters (Cedric Diggory from Hufflepuff, Cho Chang from Ravenclaw and Terence Higgs, a Quidditch player from Slytherin who was barely mentioned once) and made them First Years w. Harry and company.

Some cases like the Peter Parker / Neville Longbottom and Pietro / Draco substitutions, were easy because the characters were surprisingly close in a lot of key points. Some, however, like the three prime characters, I did what I could and threw the rest out the window. Except where specifically stated otherwise (like with the Weasley, now Summers, twins where the personalities are going to be as merged as I can get them, making them pranksters, but more adventurous and swashbuckling souls than comical ones) I'll be going for more the Marvel personality tempered with the Potter one where available and practicable.

In many cases, the Potter name is merely a place holder. While I tried very hard and stretched very far to get some kind of Potterverse parallel for all of my student characters and a few of my Death Eaters have no parallel. This includes Gabriel Summers as Philip Summers' (Arthur Weasley's) black sheep brother. Finally, the Inquisition doesn't exist in Potter and is my version of Weapon X and similar groups. The names there have NO parallels to Potter characters. As for James and Lily Potter, however, I deigned to create Marvel parallels, leaving them as they were in the Potterverse.

Finally, this story is supposed to be more on the comical side, like the "A Young Avenger at Hogwarts" stories. This doesn't mean it won't have its serious moments. I'm really trying to have fun with the characters here, but some of the very sweet scenes that are coming out (as stated elsewhere my characters sometimes take over and write their own stories) a secondary theme of Comfort is developing. Whatever the outcome, and I intend to MOSTLY parallel the Potter plots, I hope you enjoy the experience.
