Both were drawn by artist George Freeman, so finding images that match up correctly should be relatively easy. Maybe a "Crisis in the great white North" can be stopped by these two unique heroes.

This issue is one I'd definitely read, even though I've never even cracked open a Moon Knight story, just to see how these two would interact.<br /><br />For something that's offbeat in a different way, I just read where Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson are being tapped to star in a Men in Black spinoff. That, I think, is as good of an excuse as any to have Agents Jay and Kay come along to question Thor and/or Valkyrie.Bob Greenwadehttp://lulu.com/spotlight/bobgreenwadenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-67254124807891507852018-03-22T11:13:56.223-04:002018-03-22T11:13:56.223-04:00I'm with you, Ross, regarding offbeat team-ups...I'm with you, Ross, regarding offbeat team-ups. While I enjoyed the many team-ups between Batman and Green Arrow in the original Brave and Bold comic, one of my very favorite B&B team-ups was the first team-up between Batman and Kamandi. I also really liked the team-up between Batman, Plastic Man and Metamorpho. My favorite issue of DC Comics Presents (hands down) was the time Superman teamed up with the Marvel Family including Hoppy the Marvel Bunny....<br /> Sonofjacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-6923327433494400162018-03-22T10:37:47.032-04:002018-03-22T10:37:47.032-04:00Haha, I am glad to see the positive comments for t...Haha, I am glad to see the positive comments for this one.

No doubt, I enjoy the idea of seeing characters of different publications, but with similar attributes, get together. Batman/Capt. America, Sub-Mariner/Aquaman, Flash/Quicksilver, Red Tornado/Vision, are some that come to my mind. Those are fun but obvious. I like the idea even more of bringing together characters that one might not otherwise expect. I recall a Capt. America issue in which he fought Magneto. It was a great story, but one that I might not have thought of myself. That is what you bring. Yes, if you were running a company as suggested, there would be an expectation to feature more "popular" characters, but those of us who have loved comics since childhood who now share the stories with grandchildren (such as myself) would still love to see these "odd" pairings.
