Maybe it's the squinty eyes, but these two always seem to fit together, despite the different types of stories that they get involved in. I can definitely see them forming a World's Finest type partnership. Dick Tracy and Captain Marvel first met on the blog in STF #1322...

What if...Billy Batson said his magic word, and thereby caused Dick Tracy to become the Flash.
What if...they finally learn who offed Rats McTattler?
I thought he was still alive. Just in a drug-induced coma.
Even with the speed of Mercury, you just can't rush chemistry!
The art styles in general go together well for these two characters. It's not just the eyes; it's the lines in general that make even this cover look like it could've been drawn by one artist.
I just had a flash of inspiration: re-unite The Captains Marvel for a multi-part adventure, where the Marvel & DC versions are hunting for their android team leader's missing parts (all of them). Those with matched-up partners on this blog could even reach out (like Freddie with Kamala, or Carol with Kara).
How.about Captain Caveman build a lightning shooting club with Ash’s Pikachu?
@Bob G, sometimes you can rush chemistry...a centrifuge can be done at super speed.
Seeing Cap using his mind is enjoyable,just a bit rarer.
I could see Tracy and Bruce Wayne at a college lab, encouraging each other to fight future crime. That would be great.
Seeing Tracy in a new movie would probably be one filled with bloodied victims. CGI wouldn't make a difference in that case. Beatty's version isn't seen that often now.
How would Tracy interact with Wonder Woman, when she's not seen as an outlaw? Being super but not being a masked, mystery woman, would he have a problem treating her as an "equal"? Would he appreciate her personality being more for peace? Looking out more for the victims?
Didn't Mr. Magoo once guest-star on the Dick Tracy cartoon show as a hit man named "Squinty Eyes"?
Great cover, and love the World's Finest idea!

Just a stray thought about that android hero's[detachable] parts_ I wonder
whether, under the costume (if that isn't just his synthetic body's integral outer layer), he is 'anatomically correct'?
Just like Ken
@Anon: OUCH!
