Solomon Grundy Vs. Venom

 

Undead mobster versus unhinged symbiote - who wins this battle?  I guess it all depends on which iteration of Grundy that we are talking about, as his personality and power level can vary from rebirth to rebirth.

Stupendous Man Vs. Superman

 

Superman has had plenty of experience dealing with ultra powerful imps with the likes of Mr. Mxyzptlk in his rogues gallery.  Would that be enough to prepare him for a Calvin hopped up on sugar?  It would be fun to find out!

Thor Vs. The Parasite in: "Back For Seconds!"

 The Parasite is of course referring to the events of STF #3711... I figured that such a match up was worthy of another round - so here's a sequel to that tale! Here's hoping The Parasite shows up in a Superman film one of these days.

Wildcat and Red Wolf

 

When Ben Woods, a Patron of this blog, suggested this pairing, I had to admit that it was one I had never considered.  The more I thought about it, though, the more it appealed to me. I can see these two working well together.   Thanks, Ben!

Blue Beetle and Booster Gold Vs. Aliens

 

The Blue and Gold team have a way of getting in and out of tight spots, so this is a scenario that I can see happening.  You can't wise-crack your way out of a Xenomorph infestation, so I'd like to see how they deal with this particular menace. 

The Flash and Doctor Strange (Vs. Abra Kadabra!)

 

With James Gunn's DCU featuring a universe where superheroes have existed for a long time, I really hope that we get a proper Justice Society with Jay Garrick, Ted Grant, Alan Scott and the rest.  I'd be happy to see them as older mentors or in their prime in a period piece... or why not both?

Doctor Strange met the Barry Allen Flash back in STF #728...

Zatanna and The Shadow

 

Zatanna is long overdue for a big screen debut, and I am sure she will be a big part of the cinematic DCU as a team member or even in a solo project.  The Shadow had his 90's film, which has its moments - but I think enough time has passed that I'd like to see him adapted again for live action.

Captain Marvel and Black Panther

 

These two characters might not have a lot in common, but hey - gigantic monsters storming the countryside would tend to bring all kinds of heroes together.  I know that I would read it!

Black Knight and Batman

 

Batman and the modern day Black Knight faced off on a Lost B&B cover from way back in 2010, so I thought that it was high time that he met the original version.  I have to imagine that their capes would really get in the way in a swordfight, though!

Quicksilver Vs. The Rogues

 

Pietro Maximoff has a decidedly different personality than Barry Allen or Wally West.  It would be interesting to watch the interaction between him and the Flash Rogues.  There seems to be at least some respect between them and their usual speedsters, and I's like to see them go a few rounds with the ill-tempered mutant.

Galactus Vs. The Authority

 

Next year we will be seeing Galactus and The Authority in the big screen.  Well, Only the Engineer is slated to show up in Superman, but I am sure that seed will be planted for the entire Authority team, as they have an upcoming announced movie of their own.  Galactus as a concept has been seen in the movies before, but Fantastic Four: First Steps will at last bring the character to live action.  Let's hope everyone is done justice.

Ms. Marvel and Supergirl in: "Nothing Stops Cosmonox!"

 

This marks the sweet sixteenth appearance of The Danvers Twins on the Blog.  Despite the fact that Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow has not begun filming yet, Milly Alcock has been seen sporting long blonde hair recently.  This has led to speculation that she will be appearing as the famous Kryptonian cousin at least briefly in the upcoming Superman movie. That sounds like a good theory, I'm guessing she will show up right at the end or in a post-credits scene.

Lobo Vs. Sabretooth

Who do you think wins this fight?  I think that Lobo might have a slight edge, but it would be a long and bloody battle.  Then again, Sabretooth just doesn't stay down...

Ant-Man & The Wasp vs. Mr. Mind

 

We kept getting teased with Mr. Mind in the Shazam! movies, but he never got more than quick cameos.  He's just the kind of odd character that James Gunn seems to like, though - so I am holding out hope that he will eventually get his due in the new cinematic DCU.

Vigilante and The Amazing Spider-Man

 

You just know that if these two actually shared a universe, they would be bound to clash sooner or later.  Would Adrian Chase continue to hunt down the wall-crawler... or would he eventually fight by his side?

Vixen and Tarzan

 

I got a kick out of the old Tarzan cartoons from my youth.  They felt superhero-adjacent to me and I liked the character designs. Even as a kid, the limited animation did stand out to me.  I remember getting a little annoyed with all of the re-used sequences.

The 4th Wall Four

 

This is a team concept that has been discussed in the comments and I thought that is was time to put it together.  The first three members of this group were easy to pick, but there is a wide choice of funny animal characters that are known to talk straight to the audience.  Bugs Bunny was the one that made the biggest impression on me, so he got the nod.

Ambush Bug previously met She-Hulk in STF #3928, and Deadpool in STF #285...

Human Torch and Metamorpho

 

As I had hoped, Metamorpho will be getting a push now that he will be getting his live action debut in the upcoming Superman movie. DC Comics has announced the first ongoing Metamorpho comic in decades.  Let's hope it can reach the heights of the Bob Haney/Ramona Fradon classic series.

Captain America and Savage Dragon

 

It will be interesting to see where the Marvel Cinematic Universe ends up after the Russo Brothers close up the Multiverse Saga with their two upcoming Avengers movies.  Will Steve Rogers be back in the role of Cap through some multiversal shenanigans? Would he stick around if so? I'm guessing a lot will depend on how well Captain America: Brave New World performs at the box office with Sam Wilson in the title role.

The Thing and Hawkman & Hawkgirl

 

This is the Thing's third outing with Hawkman.  They first appeared together in a MTIO cover from my MS Paint days, then they had a classic adventure in STF #3632. I thought that it was time for Hawkgirl to get in on the action.
