Ever since the Red Skull alluded to the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark in Captain America The Firs Avenger by saying, "The fuhrer is too busy digging for trinkets in the desert", I have wanted to see this match up. Of course Cap himself met Indy in a previous STF issue, so this can be considered a sequel to that one.
Ha! I remember that!
ReplyDelete"I got that reference."
I am hoping that one day there will be an Invaders film...
A fan can dream...
You could even get Rocketeer mixed up in it, after the reference to "that endless archeological dig in Tanis" (probably paraphrasing there) in Peter David's novelisation of the movie.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, I double-checked the link to that previous team-up. And, I don't think you'd need to have Kang and Belloq form an alliance of convenience to have Cap and Indy meet for the first time. If Indy could still be alive and kicking butt in the late 1950's, in KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL, he could also be around for Cap's return to the Land of the Living in the early 1960's. Assuming, of course, you were going by Silver Age Avengers' chronology, rather than Marvel Films' chronology.
ReplyDeleteSecondly? If you had to go by the latter, why not have Indy team up with Peggy Carter as well as Cap?
Aside from all those nitpicks, though, I love how closely your artwork matches Indy from ROTLA and the Red Skull from CATFA. Thanks for sharing!
