Lady Cop and Night Nurse


 This is one of those combinations that has been rattling around the back of my brain for  years, and I am finally getting around to putting it together. I thought that Night Nurse was brought back successfully in Doctor Strange: The Oath, but I don't know what she's been up to since then.  Lady Cop returned in The All-New Atom, and I thinks that was it for her.  Who know when either will return again?

Wow. Never even heard of Lady Cop. Don't think there will be any trades on her unless she gets superpowers or becomes Lady Secret Agent.
Night Nurse was seen once in the original run. Liked her cameo in Strange. (and that was BEFORE the virus). Night Nurse goes on STRIKE is the next episode. She's drained.

While I've recently learned of the existence of Night Nurse - without having the faintest idea of what she might be doing in a comic - Lady Cop is completely new to me (although I can imagine a comic centred around her).
None of which stops me from really appreciating your cover today!

Ah - Lady Cop. One Bronze Age appearance in First Issue Special and that was that. Definitely had potential.

If I didn't know better, I'd say that that red buzz cut identifies Trench Coat as Amazo!

Carycomic said...

But, then again, why would he be after a couple non-superhuman one-or-two-issue wonders from the Late Silver Age?

Maybe he absorbed the super power of Clayface III and, with it, the migraines that literally drove him (Preston Payne) crazy.

Regardless of the above, this cover makes for a nice salute (even if unintentional) to today's front-line workers.

(The structure in the background does look a bit like the House of Mystery, so perhaps that's a clue as to what's going on.)

I can't tell you how much I like this cover.

This Thanksgiving, a great idea could be having A video of a crowded(?) family (+) Thanksgiving gathering on public access cable channels, or even broadcast sub-channels, to substitute for social distancing-unfriendly real Thanksgiving gatherings.

Night Nurse apperaed in several issues of Brian Michael Bendis' Daredevil run

@Carycomic: Amazo doesn't have a buzz cut, he's bald and wears a red skullcap. At least, that's what it said in DC Who's Who.

Carycomic said...

Unless, of course, Amazo absorbed Silver Age Jimmy Olsen's haircut (via one of the latter's superhuman transmutations).*


*Totally serious, btw.

This needs to be recurring.
