The Thing and Samurai Jack

 

This is a pairing that I never got around to during my Marvel Two-In-One: The Lost Issues! days, but that has always been rattling around in the back of my head. I'm glad to finally have given it a shot, because I feel that these two in an adventure together could make for a very rousing tale.

Ben don't know Jack but he will. Jack will go the wrong way and go to the future cause that's how it works.Before he leaves will Ben teach Jack about beer and cigars? It'll take too long to teach him cards. Love to see this in a power point.

I would love to see these two team-up against Diablo the Alchemist and Aku the Fire Demon!*


*After all, don't the people of the Fire Nation (from "Avatar: the Last Airbender") worship Aku?

Does Ben still smoke cigars?

I don't know much about Samurai Jack, it's been a while since i saw him on tv. If the sword isn't supernatural, I don't think Ben is going to have any concerns. If Jack gets to a time machine how is he going to set the time he needs?

Carycomic said...

@Anon803: of course, he does! He's an old stogie fogie.

Now I'm yearning for a Phil LaMarr tribute cover, featuring Samurai Jack with GL John Stewart at the very least.

@Tobor: In answer to your question: Incorrectly.

i always thought that Ben was based on Jack Kirby both fought in the war , both smoke cigars, and have a grouch sentiment when dealing with the public, and now both have Married…
will Samurai Jack have an advantage we don’t know about ?

@Simon: probably not.

Is there also a Samurai Jill?

Carycomic said...

@Simreeve: there almost was. But, she disappeared just as she and Jack were about to tie the Japanese knot in the series finale.*

*Something about Aku having been vanquished before he took over the far future that she had been born and raised in! .
