The Question Vs. Mysterio



Given that the Question is all about uncovering mysteries and conspiracies, I think that he would be a great match against Mysterio, the master of illusion and deception.  I'm betting it would be a cloudy issues as well - both of these guys are fond of showing up covered in plumes of smoke.

  1. And you didn't use Steve Ditko art

  2. It's all about what works best graphically. I do have another Mysterio cover coming featuring Ditko though!

  3. As simple as it would be to make an awesome Question costume I am surprised he hasn't been used on Arrow yet. Or maybe he could show up on the Flash.

    a conspiracy nut vs. a self-styled master of illusions.

  5. Love it! Have a deep fondness for Denny and Denys' 80's-90's Question series and was sad when it ended. Vic Sage never seemed to be handled well by anyone other than O'Neil which I always figured is why the gave him such a crap death in the pre nu52.

  6. I'm still waiting on seeing Question II (Renee Montoya) in these pages. Anything?

  7. I liked Renee as Renee rather than The Question, So if she appears it will be as herself probably.

  8. I miss the old, Vic Sage Question. Does the new 52 question suck? Yes he does!

  9. I'd like to see the Question team up with Spidey against...The Answer!

  10. Denny O'Neil's Question was maybe my favorite 80s character. Maybe it was just me, but I feel the characterization of the Vic Sage was just suited to that era, or perhaps me being an idealistic, but non pacifist college kid at the time was why it worked. Not sure how the concept would go over today. Loved the book of the month in the letters column. How I discovered the Art of War by Sun Tzu. Anyway I always pictured Patrick Swayze as a live action Question back then. Don't believe me? Check out Roadhouse, another relic from the 80s. Swayze was essentially the character of Vic Sage as bouncer - rockin' mullet and all!
