Brother Voodoo and The Phantom Stranger

 

The Phantom Stranger is a character that I really hope shows up on screen in the new DCU.  I can see him showing up as a supporting character in multiple films.  It would be a great role for an actor to have fun with, but who best to cast?

Wildcat Vs. Muhammad Ali

It looks like Yolanda Montez, the second Wildcat, will be playing a supporting role in the upcoming Stargirl series on the CW network.  Hopefully that means we will get to see Ted Grant in action as well, at least in some flashback scenes.  He's been well known as a trainer of heroes in the comics, and I'd love to see that aspect reflected in his live action appearances.

Thank you to Marc Tyler Nobleman, comics' historian and Patron of this Blog, for suggesting this match up!

Sgt. Fury and The Spectre

Before he became a huge name because of his Lord of the Rings movies, I was a Peter Jackson fan because  of his film The Frighteners.  I remember seeing the effects used for the main evil spirit and thinking that it looked a lot like The Spectre - and that's on a movie almost 25 years old.  I am sure Hollywood could do an amazing job with the character today.  Heck, get Jackson to direct it!

Batman and The Original Black Cat

Batman has always had feelings for Catwoman, but her criminal ways keep coming between them.  Perhaps a heroine with a cat motif would have been more suitable as the Caped Crusader's love interest.  How different his history might have been if Linda Turner had been operating in Gotham.
