There was a bit of discussion about it back when barto was creating his Timeline project, as I recall - although FrustratePilot did keep calling him Karl Veder by mistake!

Check out these old threads, but to answer your question I can't think of anything that would disprove the theory.

If you want to know who I am just ask :lol: :lol: :lol: But seriously I wondered who Karl Vagan might have been unless he is just another Shadow operative like Faroukh. What I find interesting is there was Faroukh in the Red Shadows and years later Marvel UK had a Faroukh working for MARS he is in the comics section I wonder if the writer was a BAF fan and decided to re-vamp that character as such.

Faroukh? In BAF?

I think you must still be on medication, Irony. Are you confusing him with Sultan?

Isn't that faroukh dude a swiss-random from one of the Cobra-era "Revenge of the Shadows" type stories, except - literally - the teeny version? They take over somewhere in the mountains and blow stuff up, Vanyo is the artiste.

Yeah, they hinted at Vagan, but :sas: had good intel at the outset of Bluthund, inc. a picture of the Baron sans helmet, and the first AF-BAF annual had a long breakdown of Eisenblut's sensitive crimes and personal history etc.

Maybe he was Zartan before Cobra hired him?

I think you might be thinking of School For Snakes, Quickie. Krano?

My grief, that's a veritable counter-intuitive synthesis of several AF universes, but can see what's being got at.

Yeah, School for Snakes it was. Nice one Eisenblut.

If it is Sultan I am thinking of what story is he in and do you think the Indy figure of Sallah would look good as him?
