Robin and Bucky have a bit of history on STF: The Lost Issues:
Once, Robin considered taking over for Bucky...
There was the time they tackled zombies together...
They met later in their careers as Nightwing and The Winter Soldier...
They met when their teams shared an adventure...
Bucky has even tried to take over for Robin, once solo, and once with The Young Allies.
Believe it or not, that man-faced octopus is scarier-looking than the mad scientist!*
ReplyDelete*He looks more like Luthor from the Power Stone story arc of Golden Age Superman.
Good point!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading a reprint of that story arc. And Golden Age Luthor was as bald then as his more modern depictions! It's only in COIE (and other Late Silver Age stories) that he had red hair.
Now I want Dick to fight an octopus/Bucky Barnes hybrid. WEIRD
ReplyDeleteAbove anonymous, when Luthor was first introduced, he had red hair, but was changed to being drawn as bald still in the early 1940s.
ReplyDelete@ 2nd Anonymous: my point, exactly. DC was into ret-conning even _before_ COIE!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a good story.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see Dick's later Titans team (the early 2000's one) investigating something like this.
