Vixen and Hercules in: "Crisis of Infinite Hercs!"

 

Poor Hercules just can't get a break in his attempts to woo Vixen. These two were last seen up against a pair of Rocs in STF #3277... Before that, they were battling giant snakes in STF #3096, and Hercules first became attracted to Vixen in STF #3014...  Will she ever agree to accept his offer for a date?  You'll just have to wait for the next time they meet up to find that out!

Oh yes! The Herc in blue reminded me of Superman, with Jimmy as Newton the centaur. Be funny if Vixen was attracted to this one.

Actually (ref: your comment yesterday) I wasn't the first to request a multi-Hercules gathering -- I mostly just chimed in my agreement -- but this cover is definitely lots of fun. I especially appreciate the title.

My actual request would be a partnership between Vixen and Spider-Man, given their mutual connections to Anansi.

@Det. Tobor: But, it wouldn't be so funny to the one who looks like a red-bearded Steve Reeves! ;-)

@Ross: a very clever assortment. The DC version from HERCULES UNBOUND; the animated one based on Kevin Sorbo; and the blond blue-eyed version from Disney (in addition to the first two already mentioned).

I have to wonder, though. Is this a side-effect of one of those frequently recurring time storms unique to the Ross-verse? Or could it be Mopee of the Fifth Dimension up to some of his new tricks?

Not sure why I thought of this now, but what would happen if Alfred Pennyworth were replaced in Batman's employment by Alfred J Neuman?

The Herc I recall best is the Silver Age one by Curt Swan who was a recurring thorn in the...(Hmm. Not sure what part of his anatomy to enter. Anyway...) He was a different version too of a slightly earlier version by (I think) Wayne Boring.
Great title, BTW, and I hope we see more (but not infinitely more) of the Infinite Hercs.
But Vixen could do better.

Silver Age Hercology has sparked an idea for a cover - DC Robin Hood going after his two main copycats, Hawkeye and Green Arrow.

@Anon@9:10... Along similar lines, since Joe Giella used to draw the "Mary Worth" comic strip, I've thought about a wedding between Mary and Alfred. Would she be Mary Worth Pennyworth?

Anon, then Batsy would be "On the Alf & Alf"

Carycomic said...

@Anon & Fisher: now, that would be cause for worry! It might even prove...MADdening.

I thought Neumann's middle initial was "E."

Anon at 2.52, his initial on Earth-STF is....actually probably just a typo ...

@both Anons: Which is probably the same reason the Herc in blue looks like he's advertising for Hyundai.
