Iron Man 2020 and The Demon

 

I'm going to have to go back and read the Machine Man mini series that featured Arno Stark, the Iron Man of 2020.  Not only to revisit the gorgeous Barry Windsor-Smith artwork, but to see how closely the future depicted  resembles the 2020's that have actually come to pass.

The Green Hornet and Superman

 

I remember The Green Hornet showing up on Batman, and Superman appearing on I Love Lucy, a couple of great early crossovers.  I think that an episode like this would have been pretty cool to have seen as well! 

Huntress and Hawkeye (Vs. Mr. Universe!)

 

for the 14th appearance of the Hawkeye/Huntress siblings, I thought that I would put them up against STF's recurring villain, Mr. Universe!  It looks like family drama will play a role in this confrontation as well, let's hope Hawkeye has packed some great trick arrows in his quiver.

New Mutants Vs. Darkseid

 

Looks like the New Mutants are in a tough spot.  It's too bad they didn't bring Magma along with them, she would have been a big help in this locale!

The Flash and Machine Man

 

Now even The Flash's job is being taken over by AI?  I hope that souped up skateboard is fast enough to match his pace!

Star Trek and Batman & The Outsiders

 

Is Halo appearing anywhere these days? I've always thought that she was criminally underused.  One reason might be her convoluted backstory.  Hopefully DC will realize her potential one of these days.

The Atom and The Thing

 

Al Pratt seems to have a similar personality to Ben Grimm, and I think that they would get along.  That is, unless they were manipulated into battle by a creep like The Wizard! 

Stingray Vs. Black Manta in: "Wake The Death Dealer!"

 

Well, it's no wonder that these two keep finding themselves at odds!  Their head-concealing get ups really don't allow for much in the way of facial cues, so I have to imagine that leads to a lot of misunderstanding.

Stingray first battled Black Manta in STF #3452...

Wonder Woman and Isis

 

These two heroines inspired lots of girls and were the first crushes of a lot of boys, so I think that a crossover like this would have been a big hit back in the day.  It's too bad the Wonder Woman TV show never featured any of her comic book villains, and this would have been an opportunity to change that.

Black Panther and Sgt. Rock

 

I liked the brief flashback scene we got of T'Chaka fully suited up in the first Black Panther movie, and it would have been cool to see more of him in action.  Something tells me that he and Sgt. Rock would have a grudging respect for one another.

Captain America and Catwoman in: "Hydra Heist!"

 

Cap and Catwoman first met in a back up tale in STF #2100, and I thought that this pairing deserves their own full length issue - especially if it could have featured the amazing artwork of the legendary Ramona Fradon!

Grape Ape Vs. Godzilla

 

This cover comes about as the result of a suggestion from Tom Brennan, a Patron of this blog.  I have to say that I surprised that this was never a real thing back in the day.  Well, better late than never! Thanks, Tom!

Tintin and Iron Man

 

Sure, it's one of the earlier models, but who wouldn't want to spend some time in an Iron Man suit?  I'm sure Tintin has a good reason for needing one.

Spaceman Spiff meets R2D2 & C-3PO

 

How different would the Star Wars saga have played out if these two droids bumped into Spiff as they were encountering the Jawas?  Chaos would have been sure to ensue!

Batman and Spider-Man in: "Full Count!"

 

I can't imagine how such a scene depicted above would come about, but I know that I'd just have to see how this story unfolds.  

Batman and Spider-Man have a bit of history on STF: The Lost Issues...

They battled Clayface and Mysterio in STF #3834....

They joined the Wacky Races in STF #3755...
The Spider-Buggy went up against the Bat-Bus in STF #3624...
Batman got his first look at the Spider-Buggy in STF #1628...
The Batman/Spidey movie premiered in STF #1014
Spidey and JJJ joined forces against Batman in STF #937...
They were joined by some Amazing Friends in back in October 2011...
The shared a Golden Age adventure in September 2011...
Spidey wore his black outfit for their  July 2010 meeting...
And here is where they first crossed paths.

Ambush Bug and Quicksilver

 

Quicksilver can get impatient with most heroes, so I can only imagine how frustrating an adventure with Ambush Bug would be for him!   I'm guessing quite a bit, but it would be fun to read about.

Barda and The New Furies

 

The team is assembled at last!  I'd say that this is a pretty formidable group, more than ready for any challenges that might await them.  I have to imagine that Granny Goodness isn't going to be happy when she learns of to this new team.

Barda recruited Dart STF #5042, Xena in STF #5011, Hellcat in STF #4964 and Red Sonja in STF #4881.

Jimmy Olsen and Professor X

 

I'm looking forward to seeing Patrick Stewart as Professor X one more time in Avengers: Doomsday.  I just hope he doesn't die in the movie, though.  We've already seen Professor X killed off in X:Men 3, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Logan and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The poor guy can't get a break - only Thomas and Martha Wayne have had more on-screen deaths!

Blue Beetle & Booster Gold and Nighthawk

 

Despite his wealth and abilities, Nighthawk was never quite able to rise above B-list status.  Still, I always liked Kyle Richmond and he had a very cool costume, so I always welcomed his appearances.  I think he would work well with the Blue & Gold team, acting as kind of a less gruff Batman.

Starhawk and Green Lantern

I never quite understood Starhawks's costume.  I mean, It looked cool, but I didn't get how that odd cape/wing hybrid design was supposed to work, it seemed awkward that it was connected to the boots.  That headpiece must have made it tough going through doorways as well.
