The Six Million Dollar Man and Nick Fury

 

Steve Austin seems like he would have been a good candidate to join S.H.I.E.L.D.  He's part man, part Life Model Decoy already, after all!

Professor X leads The Justice League of America

 

How differently would the JLA operate if Charles Xavier was running the operation?  I would be interesting to read about, at least for an issue.

Nighthawk Vs. Doctor Light

 

I always really liked this costume of nighthawk's, buccaneer boots and all.  That cape seems like it would be kind of difficult to draw, but it was unique and looked really cool to me.

Shaun the Sheep meets The Minions

 

As a huge fan of Wallace & Gromit, I had to check out another Aardman creation, Shaun the Sheep.  He's featured in a lot of shorter episodes, and I also checked out  his first movie.  They all of course feature great claymation and it is impressive how the adventures are virtually dialogue-free.  The Minions entertain me as well - in small doses anyway.

The Demon and Underdog

 

This is a pairing that has been suggested a few times, most recently by Bob Greenwade, a patron of this blog.  It does seem like somewhat of an odd couple until they start speaking.  Plus, they have similar tastes in fashion!

Doctor Fate Vs. Nightmare

 

I think the plan is still for a third Dr. Strange movie to be made.  Nightmare would be a great candidate for a villain.  I can imagine a lot of cool dreamscapes and scenarios with him in the mix and it would be fun to see them realized.

Red Tornado and The Hulk

 

Hopefully they can resolve their differences because this could make for an interesting odd couple.  A monster denying his human side and a robot trying to become more human - on the road, fighting crime... I'd read it!

Judge Dredd, Captain Marvel and Black Canary

 

I you have to follow someone into battle, Judge Dredd isn't a bad choice.  Let's hope that his recruits can keep up with him!

Nightwing and Power Man

 

Time for some Gil Kane goodness.  He was always able to select the perfect moment in a story and present it dynamically with his amazing artwork.  He was easily my favorite Marvel Comics cover artist.

Superman and Iceman

 

No word on whether Iceman will be a part of Marvel's new X-Men plans yet.  I had hoped they would be starting with a proper first class team, but it looks like they are jumping around the X-Men timeline for their roster.  Man of Tomorrow is in post production, so hopefully we will get some looks at that soon.  Superman's costume looks pretty much the same, but slightly less baggy and more form fitting, which is a good thing.

Challengers of the Unknown Vs. Doctor Doom

 

The Challengers were like a non-powered version of the Fantastic Four, so it's only natural that they would eventually clash with the mad monarch of Latveria.  Speaking of Doom, am I crazy, or does the accent that Robert Downey Jr. is using for him sound like David Corenswet's Hammer of Boravia voice from Superman? Once I realized that, I can't unhear it.

X-Men and The Teen Titans in: "The Inevitabeast Always Wins!"

 

I loved the X-Men and The New Teen Titans back in the day, but what if that crossover happened a decade or so earlier?  Maybe we could have had Neal Adams on art chores, that would have been something to see.  The Original Titans and First Class X-Men previously met on the blog back in STF #789.

Batman and Lady Sif

 

This is a team up that I meant to get to way back in my Brave and the Bold: The Lost Issues days.  Sif was a great Thor supporting Character and I always liked seeing her get the spotlight.  She's still alive in the MCU, hopefully we'll see her again in one of the upcoming Avengers sequels.

Human Torch and Firebrand

 

This is a meeting that is certainly overdue on this blog. It would be cool to see the hottest heroes of the All-Star Squadron and the Invaders in action together.

The Rocketeer and Zatanna

 

Continued from yesterday's cover, we now see where Zatara was sending Cliff Secord.  Most of you probably saw this one coming.  Zatanna looks a little like Cliff's girlfriend Jenny - hope fully that won't be too much of a distraction for him.

The Rocketeer and Zatara

 

Zatara doesn't get enough love.  He first appeared in Action Comics #1, helping to kick the Golden Age of comic books into high gear, but some guy in a cape stole all of his thunder. The tale above is only part one of a two part epic, so make sure you come back here tomorrow for the thrilling conclusion!

Popeye, Wile E. Coyote and Grogu join The Wacky Races

 

I finally watched The Mandalorian and Grogu, and while I enjoyed it, I found it to be kind of inconsequential.  It really did feel like four episodes to the show stitched together.  My main issue was that it did not seem to move the characters forward at all, I was expecting some more important development given the full feature treatment.  I have heard lots of positive comments about Coyote Vs. ACME, though - so I am looking forward to that on debuting on HBO Max.

Cannonball and Stargirl

 

The dating scene these days can seem as daunting as taking on a super-villain, that's for sure.  Let's hope these two young heroes can navigate it without too much heartbreak.

Captain America and Deadman in: "Get That Ghost!"

 

When these two last met back in STF #3576, Deadman was coming to Captain America's rescue.  I thought that for this cover, Cap could return the favor.

Tawky Tawny Vs. Kraven The Hunter

 

The last time Kraven appeared on the Blog, a suggestion was made by Bob Greenwade, a patron of this blog, to have him face off against Tawky Tawny. That would certainly be an interesting confrontation, and I thought it warranted a cover.  Thanks, Bob!
