This is another pairing that I have been meaning to get to for a while. The red, gold and blue of their costumes go together well and I am sure they would have a mutual appreciation for one another. I can see Strange getting mixed up with some of Diana's more mystical threats, like Circe.
I assume he's talking about bringing her to Themyscira, where men are not allowed, but I like to imagine he's got to remove her bracers to save her life, which will turn her into a rampaging berserker (and might require the combined efforts of Dr Fate and Dormammu to stop her, since Strange would be smart enough to drop her into the Dark Dimension).
ReplyDeleteI would prefer to picture him materializing within Paula von Gunther's laboratory (whee the Amazons' Purple Healing Ray is located). Whereupon, he is almost instantly surrounded by Philippa's security guards who tell him "No man is allowed to set foot on Paradise Island!"
ReplyDeleteAnd he smilingly points down to where his toes are hovering at least a foot off the ground, courtesy of his Cloak of Levitation.
I hope that isn't Agent Carter's sword. Otherwise, Peggy "gonna have some 'splaining to do!"
ReplyDeleteGood one, Carycomic! I do miss the Purple Healing Ray, and wish it were used a bit more. I know, I know, it's a literal "deus ex machina", but an essential piece of Silver Age tech, as legitimate as Iron Man's repulsor rays. And Strange would SO use the "not actually setting foot on the island" gambit!
ReplyDeleteAgreed on the "set foot" business. That would fall under the Department of Well Played.
ReplyDelete@Reg: thank you and you're welcome. :-)
ReplyDelete@Anon720: Lol!
Dear Bob: thanks! :-)
ReplyDeleteP.S.---Thursday, Aug. 17 is finally here. That means the Blue Beetle movie is no longer out of "Reach"! As soon as quitting time rolls around, I'm off to see a sneak preview. How about your own hometown multiplex?
if limbo, the phantom zone, is available, that would be a starting point if needed.
ReplyDeleteRED tape can be so aggravating, especially when you're trying to save a life.
Then again, a clone of the purple ray device in the Doc's hands could be helpful.
@Bob Greenwade: well, I just got back. It was twice as good as "Suicide Squad." And 50% better than "Green Lantern." But, definitely only half-as-good as "Spider-Man: No Way Home."

@Cary: That'll be good to know, should I ever get around to watching it.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Me? I'm still hoping to see "The Last Voyage of The Demeter" before Labor Day.
