Dex-Starr Vs. ALF

 

Having a cat join the ranks of the rage-based Red Lantern Corps was an inspired idea.  They definitely do seem to have motivations all their own.  I'm not sure which color Corps my cat Ace would join.  Is there one that taps into the power of nap times?

Amusingly enough, ALF appeared as a GL in a crowd scene in Green Lantern #24. Never occurred to me that he and Dex-Starr would be such natural enemies!

Love it!!

Oh, there's plenty of such colors, Ross! Magenta; indigo; plaid; puice; burgundy; cranberry; maroon; chartreuse; and any other tongue-twisting shade used only by over-priced clothiers and _inferior_ decorators.

Today's cover, though? Definitely brilliant! Makes me wonder how Mr. Shumway would do against Nick Fury's feline? ;-)

@Cary: I, too, was wondering how Dex-Starr would do against everyone's favorite Flerken (though I'm slightly more eager to see the latter with his namesake Wookie).

This is truly an inspired concept and hilarious!!

I'd rather see Flerken vs. The Wookiee Monster (from "Hardware Wars").

I feel like, regardless of meaning, Alf's power ring would be puce.

Seeing this makes me think you could create an all-cat team. Garfield, Dex-Starr, Krazy Kat, Top Cat, Chewier, Sylvester Cat, Tom (from Tom & Jerry)...

The possibilities are nearly endless

Bigby65-
There's Cat Precinct with Streaky, Garfield, Hobbes, Heathcliff and Bill the Cat.

Though now I want to see ALF and the Thundercats XD

@Bigby & BigMike: Cat Precinct is one thing; super-felines like Chewie and Streaky are quite another. Just those two would make for an interesting story without any others, though there's also Karate Kat, Alley-Kat-Abra (of the Zoo Crew), and Captain Americat (from the Spider-Ham universe), if Ross can find decent images of them.

What about Dr. Otto Pussycat o'Nine-tails (arch-enemy of Webster "the Amazing Man-Spider" Weaver)?

Bob Greenwade said...

@Anon@9:36: I'm pretty sure that he, like Dex-Starr, qualifies more as a supervillain (much like General Parvo of Road Rovers).

Unless, of course, the Rossverse has its own version of Earth 3, where the superheroes-and-villains we know have morally inverse opposites.
