Are fishnets and a mini skirt appropriate battle wear? Maybe not, but Marie is an effective agent nonetheless. It would be cool to see her on a mission with The Invaders.

Following up from yesterday's Golden Age style cover, here I present a Bronze Age adventure between Cap and Ollie. It took some tinkering to remove Spider-Man from the original image - Here's a look at the behind the scenes progress:
I was surprised to realize that I had gone this far without featuring a team up between these two heroes. To make up for it, here's a Golden Age adventure - And up next tomorrow will be a Bronze Age style cover featuring them together as well.
I remember being surprised when I first encountered Bulletman in the comics. Here he was appearing in a Justice League/Justice Society crossover - and I didn't realize DC had the rights to the character. Up until then, I had seen him only as an action figure, I thought he was part of the G.I. Joe line. I'm still not sure how he got mixed in with the rest of those Real American Heroes.
Cap and Catwoman first met in a back up tale in STF #2100, and I thought that this pairing deserves their own full length issue - especially if it could have featured the amazing artwork of the legendary Ramona Fradon!
I liked reading Doll Man tales when I was a kid, and that was no small accomplishment, given his costume and superhero name, neither of which were very cool. The amazing artwork I saw in the reprints featuring him was enough to overcome those hurdles. I do wonder if the character might have been named Action Figure Man or something else had he been created a decade or two later.
It's never a bad time to feature the Robin of Earth 2 in his greatest costume. Throw in a living legend and maniacal madman with robotic muscle and you have the ingredients for a fun Bronze Age tale!
Chris Evans is insisting that he will not be a part of Avengers: Doomsday, so the Steve Rogers Captain America will apparently continue to be off the board in the MCU if he is to be believed. Still, the lackluster box office and critical reception of Sam Wilson's cinematic outing as Captain America may have Marvel thinking about bringing Rogers back at some point.
If you were wondering where the rest of the Totalitarians were while Super-Skrull was battling Metamorpho a few days ago, well here is a partial answer to that question. Let's hope that teamwork from Earth's Mightiest Heroes wins the day!
DC Comics may have forgotten about Skyrocket, but I haven't. She's too cool of a character to keep on the shelf. Hopefully they will realize her worth and create a comic that can present her further adventures.
Captain America first encountered the JLA way back in STF #250..., an early MS Paint effort. It looks like his investigation there took a dark turn, leading to this long-overdue sequel!
This one would be like one of those hidden gem Golden Age tales that I discovered as a back up tale in a 100-Page Giant or Annual back in the day. It was cool as a young reader to get a peek at comics from an earlier era.
It's a shame that DC Comics has such a cool character in Skyrocket, and nothing is done with her. The company definitely needs more female heroes that aren't tied to a per-existing male hero, and she is an excellent example of that. I hope her creator, Kurt Busiek, or some other writer finds a way to properly utilize this hidden gem.
James Gunn's DCU seems to be the place for Batman's more outlandish villains and allies to appear. We already have Dr. Phosphorous in Creature Commandos and a solo Clayface movie is in the works as well. I really hope that Man-Bat will finally get his live action debut in a DCU project down the line.
This is another team up that I feel has been long overdue. I can see these two working very well together. I just cut the cord, so I will have to wait to watch the final episodes of Superman and Lois when they show up on Max, but I am hoping for at least one more big action sequence from Steel.
I felt that this team up idea from comics' historian and Patron of this blog Marc Tyler Nobleman was worthy of a follow up story. Regular visitors, may remember the Crimson Avengers first encounter with Earth's Mightiest Heroes in STF #3271. Thanks again for the idea, Marc!
It will be interesting to see where the Marvel Cinematic Universe ends up after the Russo Brothers close up the Multiverse Saga with their two upcoming Avengers movies. Will Steve Rogers be back in the role of Cap through some multiversal shenanigans? Would he stick around if so? I'm guessing a lot will depend on how well Captain America: Brave New World performs at the box office with Sam Wilson in the title role.
