Doom Patrol and The X-Men in: "Breaking in the New Danger Room!"

 

These two teams last crossed paths in STF #1279, and first met way back in STF #60... I thought it was time to feature them together again.

  1. My favourite Danger Room story is still the one about Kitty Pryde's first testing in it, when she'd just joined the X-Men. She simply turned intangible and walked straight through everything... and then revealed that, so she couldn't be scared by anything she saw, she'd done that with her eyes shut.

  2. This is, indeed, one of those charming third times! The only match-up I'd love to see more? The Synthetic Six and one of the Robo Forces double-teaming the Construct!

  5. Great cover, but Prof X should have been there too.

    1. This might be from the interim when they thought he'd been killed by the Hulk-like Subterranean called Grotesk. When, in fact, he'd been replaced by the mutant known as Changeling while the real Prof. X was in seclusion preparing to give the Z'nox space pirates a collective cerebral hemorrhage.

  6. Maybe if there's some way of getting Professor X and the Chief playing some one-on-one wheelchair basketball?

    But I'm still hoping we can someday see Elasti-Girl with Stature and Ginormica for "Fezzik's Angels." ("Sleep well, and dream of large women.")

    1. How about Garganta of FemForce vs. Atlas (formerly of the Thunderbolts)?

    2. Bob G, sounds like the start of a new team. Professor X, the Chief, Oracle, Rex (the one from Paw Patrol, not Mason or Plode). Now we just need a team name...
