The Falcon and Vixen

 

Their earliest looks might not have stuck around for long, but these two were heroes from the start.  It might be fun to read a tale of them meeting up just as both of their heroic careers were beginning.

  1. Nice idea and a great team-up.

  2. I agree with Anon729. The Falcon was certainly still wearing this green-and-gold outfit when he helped Cap against a giant robot called "Bulldozer" (constructed by A.I.M. on M.O.D.O.K.'s orders) in a story that I first read as a barber shop back issue. But, you know what would really reinforce the nostalgia you've so effectively captured here? A sequel where Falc has been recounting this story to Cap, WW, Vixen, and Hercules...while introducing them to his fiance!

    Who would that fiance be? Personally, I nominate Greer "Tigra" Grant. Let others commence posting their votes!

    1. Nah! It should be someone from DC or an indie character (as part of Ross' counterpoint format). So, I nominate...Kendra "Hawkgirl" Saunders!

  3. Sam Wilson had a lot on his mind in the early days. He has had a lot of developments since then. No need to rush him a mate, check!

    1. Lol! When you said "developments," I suddenly had a mental image of Jade and Obsidian playing tug-of-war with Falc the same way Batgirl and Wonder Woman did with Batman during their initial fight with Copperhead.

    2. @Det. Tobor: hey, that's a great idea! Fix up Sam with with Beatriz da Costa aka Green Fire (Knight of Checkmate).

  4. I think the Falcon should visit South Africa's modern day culture next with their speedster hero Impala in tow. They are both black male crimefighters who have similar skimpy costume styles & no over lapping powers so maybe the Vulture & M. Mallah are causing some trouble over there for them.
