I had always liked The Demon, but his appearances in the Alan Moore-written issues of
Swamp Thing really made me a big fan. Moore really had fun with Etrigan speaking in rhyme, and I loved reading his dialogue. Artists Steve Bissette and John Totleben depicted him perfectly as well, they kept his design but made him appear truly demonic with sharp teeth and claws - he never looked better to me.
Absolutely brilliant character dialogue!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have seen what Jack Kirby would've done to Deadpool in an issue of MR. MIRACLE. :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Anon #1. This would be a really wild encounter!
ReplyDeleteSo would Anon #2's suggestion. :-)
ReplyDeleteHmm. Deadpool married a demon, so I'm not sure what he'd endure in hell... maybe they'll restrain him Clockwork Orange style and force him to watch Green Lantern and Wolverine Origins repeatedly...
ReplyDelete@Mike Shirley: more likely (and more deservedly), it'll be the needlessly-overladen-with-f-bombs BLADE III.
ReplyDeleteP.S.---on a lighter note, how about a cover depicting the flying saucers of Gerry Anderson's UFO vs. the Colonial Vipers of BSG: TOS?
ReplyDeleteYou want lighter?
ReplyDelete"Mars Attacks the Planet of the Apes!"
YES! Even better; way to go, Bob! :-D
ReplyDeleteYou want lighter?
ReplyDeleteHow about light and heavy at the same time?
How about a team-up of Bouncing Boy, Fat Lady (Was that her code-name?) from the Great Lakes Avengers, Herbie the Fat Fury, and Fatman the Human Flying Saucer?
^_^
@Simreeve, her name is Big Bertha
ReplyDeleteMike is Shirley right. ;-)
