We've already seen the abomination a few times in live action, now it's time to get Man-Bat on the big screen. He may be too out there for Matt Reeves grounded take on Batman, but James Gunn's more fanciful DCU seems like the perfect place for Kirk Langstrom's bestial alter ego to show up.
These two first faced off in STF #4491...
So, this is a first anniversary sequel to STF #4491? Interesting! But, while I concede that these two are quite striking, visually, due to the similarity of ear-shape, I really couldn't see them as more than a one-shot pairing in a real-world crossover. Not unless Langstrom was aiding the Savage Dragon in arresting the Abomination in such a sequel!
ReplyDeleteGood pairing, but great art match today. Really fantastic
ReplyDeleteCurtis Conners has entered the chat.
ReplyDeleteAs in, Round Three?
DeleteWere I writing this, I'd have Dr. Langstrom trying to get the formula on behalf of Dr. Conners (whether Conners likes it or not!).
DeleteI thought as much. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have a special request.
ReplyDeleteI would very much like to have a cover where Data, the Vision, and KITT team up together to protect humanity from the Terminators.
Toss in K-9 and any other widely-beloved intelligent machines if you want, and just make it "the Vision and X Famous Co-Stars."
In case it matters, this would reflect the tenor of my desire to change public perceptions of emerging AI.
Why not just call them "Robo Force 3.0"?
ReplyDeleteLove the team-up but to give it more of a 70's Marvel feel, I'd suggest "We, Who Once Were Men..." for the caption.
ReplyDeleteOr, failing that, just plain "Ex-Men".
ReplyDeleteAI is only as ". ..." as their developers. ..good, bad or don't care.
ReplyDeleteAbby here might want to change at will..modified Thing Ring?
Imagine Hulk & Banner doing that like She-Hulk! Maybe a reverse blood transfusion?
"A.I. is only as infallible as their flesh-and-blood developers."
