Shirley?
Shirley you can't be serious.
That's a cool cover. I love how a lot of team-ups are based on those kinds of connections! Graysons; Powers Man and Girl. Because comics should be fun!
You know, I really love your covers. That's why it's so hard to correct you. Robert Grayson (the original Marvel Boy, also known as The Crusader and The Uranian) was never Quasar. That would be Wendell Vaughn, who inherited the Quantum Bands after Grayson disintegrated himself battling The Fantastic Four.
Vaughn originally took the name of Marvel Boy, when he was working for SHIELD under the super-agents program, but changed him name to Quasar when some kids laughed at his name in an issue of The Incredible Hulk.
Sorry, but I'm a HUGE Quasar fan (sso much so that I do a podcast on him: http://twotruefreaks.com/shows.php?show=36), so that note just jumped out at me. Sorry to nerd-out on you. :)
Oh I know, just pointing out that they wore the same costume.
Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification. :D
Love these connections of the heroes being related Robin & Marvel Boy, Huntress & Hawkeye, Supergirl & Ms.Marvel But I'm thinking somehow the Graysons have to connect w/ Robert Grayson asst to the GA Robotman. It was est in All-Star Squadron he was Dick Grayson's cousin
Yes, haha, I've NEVER heard *that* line before. So clever :p
I first saw Marvel Boy in the back issue bins by way of the What If starring the 1950's Avengers (of course now known as the Agents of Atlas)
Once again thanks for using my suggestion Ross! It makes an already fun daily treat even sweeter :D
Ha ha. The Robin pose is the box art from the old Aurora model kit.

"Shirley" others beside Mike have pointed out the surname similarity (like one of your readers @ STF #2354)?
It doesn't matter who first suggested it, Anonymous. Only that Ross had the talent, wisdom, and opportunity to finally implement it. And, quite magnicifently, too!
I love the way you (re)captured those poses, Ross. Golden Age Marvel boy; so stalwart and stoic. Silver Age Robin; a little more streetwise. Yet, still not so jaded as to not be open-mouthed with shock at what he sees. For what are those gelatinous masses? Alien blood stains? Or protoplasmic remains of dissolved Earthlings?
Great cover as usual Ross! Now can you put together Dr. Who's Cybermen against the Avengers (UK) Cybernauts?
@Isaac: That would be phenomenal! I loved it when the 10th Doctor Cybermen got into an interdimensional gang war with the Daleks. :-)
Clarification to Cavillier1970: The golden age Robotman was Robert Crane. The man who helped build his robotic body, Charles Grayson, was a cousin of Dick's on Earth II. Eventually (so I've read secondhand -- never saw the original comics) Charles Grayson developed a brain disease, and left his body to Robert Crane, who was able to transplant his brain and regain a human body. (So in that sense, and that sense only, Charles Grayson was Robotman.)
@Cary: Just watch Dalek vs. Cybermen on YouTube. It's a hoot.
Thanks, Isaac! I'll do that and get back to you, ASAP :-)
How about Winnie the Pooh and Robin?
Which I think would be a better fit than Batman and Christopher Robin.
But, not as memorable as Mary Poppins vs. Darth Vader!
@Cary: Ross forbid!
@Isaac: I found a number of "Dalek v. Cybermen" uploads on Youtube. But, the best one was a very neat compilation of 10th Doctor episodes (nearly 3 minutes long) featuring both Daleks and Cybermen, separately and as active combatants against each other!
Thanks, again, for the recommendation. :-)
