Worf Vs. Wolverine

 

Yes, Chronos has one of the most garish costumes out there.  I'm not sure which era the time villain has visited in which those striped leggings are in fashion.  Still, his mask at least has always looked cool to me and even creeped me out a little as a kid.

The Avengers and Kamandi

 

Look, I have the same questions about how Kamandi was able to get the upper hand here that Chronos has.  But that's just what would have made me pick this issue up off of the shelves - just to see what shenanigans that Kang is up to this time around.

Doctor Who Vs. Chronos

 

It's only natural that a Time Lord would find himself in conflict with a time-based villain.  I can't imagine he would have a high opinion of someone that uses control of the timestream for personal gain.  At least they could bond over their fondness for colorful attire.

The Avengers Vs. Chronos

 

Sure, there's Kang, The Lord of Time and others - but my favorite time traveling villain has always been Chronos.  I think it's because he was a foe of The Atom, who I also really like and that way cool creepy clock face mask he would wear.   The black and white striped leggings on the other hand... OK maybe he didn't have a perfect costume, but it worked for my young eyes!

Spider-Man and The Secret Society of Super-Villains

 

This is a story I could see working.   Spider-Man has often been unjustly tagged as a criminal, and it would be cool to see him use that status to go undercover in the underworld - sort of a reverse Thunderbolts set up.  I'm sure there's some real life comic book equivalent of this plot, but I can't recall one right now.

Captain America and The Atom In: "Murder By The Minute!"

The introduction of Ryan Choi in the CW's Crisis on Infinite Earths Crossover coupled with Brandon Routh's impending exit from DC's Legends of Tomorrow indicate that we will be seeing a passing of the Atom mantle sometime in the new year.  I'll miss Ray Palmer, but I hope that Choi makes more use of the Atom suit (or preferably, a more streamlined version of it) and it's size-changing capabilities.  Let's see an Atom that actually shrinks more than once a season!

Captain America teamed with the Golden Age Atom in STF #2597...

Thunderbolts Vs. The Secret Society of Super-Villains

Ever since I was a kid watching The Legion of Doom on Super Friends, I have always liked seeing villains joining together to make teams of their own.  It's cool to see so much power amassed together and the conflicts that arise when a group of evil, self-serving personalities attempt to work as one.  The Thunderbolts took the concept one step further by having the villains pose as heroes, and explored the effect that had on all of them - making it one of my favorite Marvel series.

The Prowler Joins The Secret Society of Super-Villains

The Prowler was teased with the appearance of Donald Glover as his alter ego Aaron Davis in Spider-Man: Homecoming.  He was seen to be trying to purchase high tech equipment, so the seeds have been set for a full costumed appearance in the future.  A deleted scene had him mentioning his nephew Miles, so perhaps he will be back in an Ultimate Spider-Man movie down the line instead.

Ant-Man, The Wasp and The Atom

Continued from yesterday's cover, we see that reinforcements had to be called in to deal with this time-twisting duo...

Ant-Man was much better than I thought it would be, given all the behind the scenes changes during the production of the film.  Since they stuck the landing and are on sure footing now, I am eagerly awaiting the follow-up, Ant-Man and The Wasp.  It will be cool to see Scott and Hope in action together (and hopefully some more flashbacks of Hank and Janet as well).

The Atom and The Wasp have shared some previous adventures on the blog - They first crossed paths in STF #216... they fought back an Inch High Insurgency in STF #768... they faced off against The Cannoneer in STF #1646... and are both members of Microforce...
