Hercules and Vixen in: "The Olympian Has Fallen!"
Presenting the second meeting between two heroes that really need to join their respective cinematic universes. Vixen was realized well on TV, but they didn't do enough with her character. Marvel's Hercules has yet to make a live action appearance, and that is something that must be rectified.
Hercules first became attracted to Vixen in STF #3014... Will he be able to win her over? Only time (and future covers) will tell...

Holy Snakes in the grass! The Fox and The Lion are going on a picnic of tasks to do. Herc can lose his heart to many strong caring intelligent women, but can he keep it in a long term relationship once he gets to a "starting line"?
Well, as I said for the previous pairing, I'm more in favor of Vixen with Black Panther and Herc with Big Barda (though admittedly Mister Miracle might have something to say about the latter).
I actually would've loved for Megalyn Echikunwoke to have more than a single hour-long episode as Vixen. Maisie Richardson-Sellers did a brilliant job as the alternate, earlier version on Legends of Tomorrow, mainly because Megalyn had scheduling conflicts, and I understand that a similar problem kept her out of Crisis on Infinite Earths, but I'd still love to see her come back every so often on The Flash or something.
As for Hercules, I agree that he'd be a fun addition to the MCU. Maybe he could show up on She-Hulk, or as part of Doctor Strange's Defenders non-team in his third film.
With all due respect, Herc? I think you stand a better chance of seeing Ororo Munro marrying the FF's Human Torch. So she can willingly call herself...Storm Storm!
@Anon: English translation; never?
@Cary: Bingo!
@Anon: As I also said in the Comments for #3014, I think it'd be better for Storm to marry Heatwave, thus becoming Ororo Rory (and Mork could officiate the wedding).
Being Ororo Rory would make her sorry.
The only fate worse (at the risk of being a punster)
Would be if she married a certain blue Muppet...
And became Ororo Cookie-Monster!
The politically incorrect puns of the preceding reader/reviewer do not reflect etc. etc. yada-yada-yada!
Why? It was in good taste. He wasn't being crummy.
If memory serves, in the pre-Bicentennial 1970's, the brand name for a certain chocolate cookie with a white cream filling became an accusatory epithet for certain African-Americans who were considered...pro-Caucasian butt kissers.*
*And that's as delicately as I can put it!
back then ok. Is it still the same now?
Depends on the age of the person uttering the epithet.
Sorry, but I still don't give a fig, Newton.
@my namesake: then, you're a silly goose, Drake.
