With Kraven about to make his cinematic debut, we will finally have seen live action versions of all of the Sinister Six. Spider-Man: No Way Home came kind of close, but it's too bad we never got a proper Spidey Vs. The Sinister Six Movie.
Dick Grayson will face off against a slightly different Six lineup once he transitions into Nightwing, as seen in STF #3738...
I wonder if the upcoming Fox cartoon Bedrock will have magical prehistoric animals that power not only ovens (dragons) but also refrigerators and microwave ovens.
ReplyDeleteWe can only hope.
DeleteA fun match-up. Have you ever pitted the Six against Batman's villains? Or the Rogues?
ReplyDeleteNot as yet, he hasn't.
ReplyDeleteIf I were The Sportsmaster, I'd say it's even money at best.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading a lot of Howard the Duck lately, so I have a lot of ideas for team ups with him. For example:
ReplyDeleteHoward the Duck vs Condiment King (or some other suitably bizarre supervillian)
Howard the Duck and Superman (in a comic crossover inspired by Jerry Siegel coming from Cleveland)
Howard the Duck, Forbush Man and the Inferior Five (Howard and Forbush Man represent Marvel's comedy heroes, and they get to team up with some of DC's comedy heroes).
And Finally: Howard the Duck and The Creeper (I think Jack Ryder wouldn't be out of place in the absurdist yet philosophical world of Howard, honestly).
Another great art match! Is that Giordano Robin & Batgirl? It looks surprisingly natural alongside Ditko's Sinister Six.
ReplyDeleteI believe the images of the Sinister Six are from the back cover of Marvel Special Edition #1, which was drawn by John Romita.
DeleteSwan/Colletta
ReplyDeleteI was replying to Jack, not Ross.
ReplyDeleteEveryone but Mysterio shouldn't be too hard. Super strength? Electricity? Sand??.maybe a little extra...Ock? Gas him. Kraven...beware of tricks.
ReplyDeleteNice cover Ross!
I know that Amy Pascal and the other folks at Sony have been itching for a Sinister Six movie for quite a long time. They may be finally almost ready to make it happen, even if it is in Venom's universe (sans Spidey).
ReplyDeleteRandom suggestion. Jason Blood and Rogue, for obvious artistic reasons
ReplyDeleteOr, failing that, Thanos vs. Pulido's Lady Death.
ReplyDeleteI love your ideas Shamus & I hope they all come true somewhere down the line.
ReplyDeleteThe Vulture is gone & the Lizard is in his place. I'd like to see a Part 2 with the front treasury cover images used. Maybe some of the weaker Titans East or West members come to help even out the odds for this battle. Beast Boy for Lizard or Doc Ock, Golden Eagle vs Vulture, Harlequin vs Mysterio, Aqualad or Aquagirl vs Sandman (does his sand form make him a sea creature of some kind? It'd be neat if they could take control of him in that way), precog telepath Lilith &/or Gnarrk vs Electro & Kraven.
ReplyDeleteWith Shamus going crazy for Howard The Duck team-ups got me thinking of a smoking team with the likes of Perry White, J. Jonah Jameson. I recall Two-Face smoking once in an issue & didn't Lex Luthor smoke during a SSSV appearance? Funky Flashman surely did. The "Cancer Club" comes to mind if you wanted to make sure the blog wasn't promoting smoking. The "Butt Heads" with Beavis & partner in tow.
