Dick Tracy and Shaft

 



Dick Tracy seems like the type of cop that would only work with a no nonsense partner.  John Shaft seems like he would fit the bill perfectly.  It might be pretty cool to see these two collaborate on a case or two.

  1. Specialist that can accomplish! Love it. What would Tracy do in return for Shaft? Provide info from the lab boys? Possible!

  2. I can see it now.

    TRACY: "I need your help tracking down a Seagate Pen escapee named Lucas Cage. According to the warden, this Cage is a bad moth..."

    SHAFT: "Shut your mouth!"

    TRACY: "I'm talking about Cage."

    SHAFT: "Then I can dig it."

  3. Maybe, in December, we can get a Shaft/Luke Cage team-up for Sweet Christmas.

  4. I second the proposal by Anon@10:30. And then, later, we might team Shaft with Ultimate Nick Fury.

  5. And, maybe for Thanksgiving, we could get Shaft (reluctantly) teaming up with Deadpool, Ambush Bug, Calvin & Hobbes as a new super-group: "The Jive Turkeys."

    1. The first time that the JLA tried to recruit Black Lightning, back when he was still pretending to be a gehtto-style African-American, he dismissed them as a "bunch of jive turkeys"...

    2. Well, he always fancied himself more of an "Outsider," anyway. ;-)

  6. If Ross really is taking weird requests, today, then how about Space Ghost and GL Godzilla attacking War World?

    1. Why not? If nothing else, it would raise Mongul's appearances to an even dozen.
