Invisbles: The King in Chains.

One of my favorite 'creepy' scenes in the Invisbles occurrs in the first issue when Gelt strips and kneels before the King-In-Chains. This is the only time we one of the bad guys conversing or interacting directly with an archon (not counting Miss Dwyer). Having, read and re-read the Invisibles, I find it very curious that this is the only time in the entire series that we see this particular archon. Am I correct in assuming that this is the same archon who attempts to possess Dane near the end of the Invisible Kingdom? It's kind of interesting that we should meet the arch-villain in the very first issue and then never see him again. Personally, I sense a little bit of the spirit of Tolkien in this decision. I was a little dissappointed that we never got to see more of this character but it didn't mar my love for the series. Still, I can't stop pondering this subject and I want to hear what others think.

He probably didn't wanna do "I will rape your soul and have you begging for the slavery which is pain" dialogue issue after issue, so he cut the guy's scene time.
