“Steven” is like Stephen King’s “Walking Dude”.
He’s *always* on the albums...you just have to look for him.
I hope you’ve gotten a chance to hear the outstanding “Along Came A Spider” album.
I think *that* was his ‘sequel’ to WTMN instead of the last year’s release “Welcome 2 My Nightmare”.
Steven -lives- and his “redemption” was temporary, at best.

Steven makes “guest appearances” on many of the albums. But WTMN, Last Temptation, Along Came A Spider and W2MN are ones where he’s the whole album and each is a complete story for Steven as opposed to the Hitchcock walkthroughs he gets on so many others. I definitely see ACAS as the most close sequel to WTMN, neither LT or W2MN really seem to fit the narrative for me, not that they’re bad albums they just don’t seem to capitalize on what I find interesting in the character.
