I think it is pretty cool how Marvel took their biggest WWII hero and through the plot device of "vita-rays" were able to continue to give him adventures in the present day. Like James Bond on steroids, Fury was always the ultimate in cool because not only did he have the best vehicles and weapons, he also had all the best connections. Good guy to know!
It's too bad that he is being muscled out of the on-screen Marvel Universe, but Sam Jackson is pretty cool, so I can live with his Ultimate Universe counterpart. Still, it is unfortunate that Fury's only live action appearance was performed by David Hasselhoff!
Wow, already up to the "N"s. U'm really enjoying this whole series. Mind if I put in a request for a Nightcrawler teamup?
ReplyDeleteNow that would be a great pairing...
ReplyDeleteOh hey, if you want to take the Nick Fury team-up 1 step further, how about -
ReplyDeleteBatman and Bruce Wayne - Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. (From the Amalgam Comics Universe)
The only thing about those one-off characters is there is very limited artwork to use.
ReplyDeleteI hear you.
ReplyDeleteI never read it, but I see now that one of the two appearances of Bruce Wayne agent of S.H.I.E.L.D was JLX Unleashed # 1 by Phil Jiminez (!)
If you could salvage anything of value from that issue I’d love to see a Phil Jiminez Bruce Wayne vs a George Perez Batman (That JLA vs Avengers series is the first thing that pops into my head)
