Superman and Ghostbusters

 

Seeing Ghostbusters and Superman II in the theater as a kid are two of my favorite movie memories. I wanted to find a way to combine those two franchises and the using Phantom Zone villains seemed like the way to do it.

Madman and The Blues Brothers

 

Do you like to have a soundtrack playing when you read comics?  Sometimes I have Pandora play some superhero movie scores while reading a new issue, it helps add to the ambience.  I'm thinking a story like the one above would almost demand musical accompaniment. 

The Hulk and The Blues Brothers

 

I recently watched The Blues Brothers again, and I am impressed at how well the movie holds up.  Of course the musical performances are all amazing and timeless, but the performances and comedy still entertain.  There are so many memorable lines from the film, some that I had forgotten came from it.  I still get a kick out of Jake and Elwood's tiny apartment, not too far off from some of the places I stayed in NYC back in the day.

The Thing and The Blues Brothers

This was a cover concept I've had in mind ever since I started with Marvel Two-In-One. Whenever I would see The Thing in his classic trench coat and sunglasses get up, my mind would flash back to The Blues Brothers. Music films don't come much better than this - so many quotable lines and great performances. In this age of Glee and High School Musical, I really miss films like this!
