I've got Avenger, but I'm not totally sure of the word play. I think it's 'anger', fiery mood+v/see+e/quarter.

Yes, I'm almost certain it's the right answer - 'he gets back' = Avenger - but I didn't do anything re the redundant single letters, so I might have missed something!

I'm 99% that my highlighted answer is correct, but only because there seems to be no other option. I'll have another look later.

It's not v for see but vi for six and i is a redundant letter.

Thanks, Orson - I should have left well alone (ie I didn't parse it when solving!).

This could well be wrong... I just wrote down all the normally clued answers and looked at them. Only one seemed a definite possible for highlighting!
