Guy Gardner and U.S.Agent

 

Oh boy, something tells me that these two hotheads would not get along.  Let's hope that they can find a common enemy that will get them fighting on the same side.

Expansion Team in: "Whatever Lengths Necessary!"

 

Presenting the sixth appearance of the Expansion Team!  I was very happy to hear that Incredibles 3 is in production, it will be great to see more Elasti-Girl action.  Reed Richards will be back in Avengers Doomsday, but the trailer shows that he still has that stupid mustache.  Either shave it or grow a beard to go with it, Pedro Pascal!

Blue Beetle and The Fantastic Four

 

Nothing like a Kirby-Ditko combo to deliver some Silver Age action!  Blue Beetle previously met the FF along with Booster Gold in STF #3590. The FF met the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle in STF #1632.

Vigilante and Cloak & Dagger

I'm not sure where the Vigilante identity rests at DC these days.  I seem to remember Adrian Chase dying (suicide?) and that there was a female version for a bit.  But with all the reboots and restarts, who knows, maybe Chase returned at some point?  Or is the character currently in limbo?

 

Blackhawk and The Human Torch

 

It's about time that Blackhawk me some other high-flying heroes from World War II.  let's just hope that he can keep his balance up there!

Green Lantern Corps Vs. The Wrecking Crew

 

The new Lanterns trailer was a lot better than the teaser but I still have my reservations about the show. It still feels a bit like it's embarrassed to be a Green Lantern show, and I don't like some of the rumors I've read regarding the fates of some of the characters.  Still, it's an HBO series and they are usually well written, and I do like the cast.  A lot is riding on this series, so I hope it is received well.  

Sgt. Fury and G.I. Robot

 

I'm not sure when Season Two of Creature Commandos is coming out, but it will be interesting to see where G.I. Robot's story will go next once it does.  Will he make the leap to live action eventually?  only time will tell.

Deadman and Wolverine

 

Thank you to Yuri Volte, a patron of this blog, for suggesting this long overdue team-up!  Deadman met Wolverine with the rest of the X-Men in STF #1991, but I've never featured a cover with just the two of them. There's definitely story potential here.

Hawkwoman and Hela

 

Hela is one Marvel Villain that I would love to see make a return to the big screen.  Cate Blanchett's performance and the visual depiction of the character in Thor: Ragnarok were spot on, and I'd love to hee her intereact with some of the other heroes of the MCU.

Iron Man and Richie Rich

 

Tony Stark has often clashed with other billionaires, so I don't know how well he's going to take this new development.  It might be fun to read about, though!

The Destroyer and Batman

 

I had to groan when I saw that The Batman Part II has been delayed yet again and now will not come out until 2028.  That probably also meant that we won't see Batman join the DCU until after that (if the DCU lasts that long between poor reception and company mergers).  Hopefully whatever Matt Reeves has planned will be worth the six year wait for a sequel.

Sgt. Rock and Werewolf by Night

 

Recently, I found some reasonably priced Artist's Editions on sale an picked them up.  These are books that collect full size images of original comic art.  One that I got was The Best of DC War, which features lots of Joe Kubert pages.  As if I didn't already consider him the best comics artist ever, seeing his techniques up close is truly a thing of beauty.

Mr. Terrific enters The Laff-A-Lympics

 

This cover comes about at she result of a suggestion by Marc Tyler Nobleman, comics' historian and Patron of this Blog.  Thanks, Marc!  I'm looking forward to Mr. Terrific's return in Man of Tomorrow, hopefully he will get another cool solo action scene.

The Beast & Wonder Man Vs. The Brotherhood of Evil

 Of all of the X-Men returning for Avengers: Doomsday, I am looking forward to seeing The Beast the most.  He was cool in X3, but we didn't get to see him in nearly enough action scenes.  Hopefully that will be remedied in this new appearance.

Dick Tracy and The Atom (Part Three)

 

For the conclusion of this Three-Part Epic, we get our third Atom and the revelation as to who has been behind these time twisting shenanigans! Let's hope Tracy and Choi can put an end to Chronos' evil plans!

Dick Tracy and The Atom (Part Two)

 

For the second part of this three-part epic, We see that Tracy has tracked down Ray Palmer's whereabouts.  Who is the secret villain behind this case? Make sure you return tomorrow for the thrilling conclusion!

Dick Tracy and The Atom (Part One)

 As a short redhead growing up, I couldn't help but feel a certain kinship with Al Pratt.  I was glad to see him eventually prominently featured in All-Star Squadron. This tale is only Part One of a Three-Part Epic, so make sure you come back tomorrow for the next chapter!

Fantastic Four and Space Cabbie

 

More recent versions of Space Cabbie depict him with a very futuristic looking taxicab.  There was something cool to me about the original version, just a regular looking taxi with a big ol' fin in the back, zipping through the cosmos.

The New Teen Titans and Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends

 

I remember seeing character designs for a never produced New Teen Titans cartoon back in the 80's and wondering what could have been. How cool would a crossover with Peter, Angelica and Bobby have been?

Spidey previously met The New Teen Titans in STF#3810 and STF #767 and the original Teen Titans in STF #619...

The Beatles and The Silver Surfer

 

I was pretty impressed with Paul McCartney's recent Saturday Night Live appearance.  Not only did he perform a half dozen great songs (only a couple aired, the rest can be seen on Youtube), he was also the funniest part of a mechanics skit with Will Ferrel and Marcello Hernandez.  Over 60 years into his career, and he's still a great entertainer.
