Iron Man and Richie Rich

 

Tony Stark has often clashed with other billionaires, so I don't know how well he's going to take this new development.  It might be fun to read about, though!

Richie Rich and Casper meet The Spectre

 

Uh oh, this looks like a dilemma that Richie won't be able to spend his way out of!  Let's hope Casper has some connections on the other side to help out!

Blade Vs. 4 Famous Co-Stars

 

You have to feel bad for Mahershala Ali.  He was announced as the MCU Blade to much fanfare back in 2019... and his movie is still in development hell.  First it was plagued by script rewrites and they have completely started over at least once.  As soon as the production seemed to have found its footing, Hollywood was hit by actors' and writers' strikes, still unresolved.  There is still no sign of a Blade movie on the schedule even looking a few years down the road. Maybe the role is cursed and not just the character?

Samurai Jack, Young Hellboy and Casper


 To my surprise it seems that there is yet a third live action film incarnation of Hellboy in the works.  At first, I thought it was just speculation, but casting announcements have already been made.  Hellboy: The Crooked Man will be co-written by Mike Mignola and star Jack Kesy in the title role.  It will be interesting to see how this attempt fares in comparison to the other two.

Ghost Rider and Casper

 


It's not a surprise to me that Harvey Comics were so popular during my formative comic reading years.  They had an interesting roster of characters and their house art style was appealing to my young eyes.  The short one to six page stories were perfect for a young reader and made the comics a great entryway to more complicated stories.  I do wish there were more creator credits though, it's tough to determine which artists and writers were responsible for what.

Deadman and Casper



I was a big fan of the DC Nation shorts that ran on the Cartoon network a few years back.  It was cool to see little used DC heroes in action as well as some very unique takes and design styles.  The Deadman shorts were a blast and seemed to me to be at least in part inspired by Casper comics, so I thought it might be fun to bring the ghotsly duo together here.

Richie Rich and Uncle Scrooge



I get suggestions for team ups all the time, from the obvious to the obscure.  That said, I am amazed that nobody ever suggested this one to me though, it seems like a natural.  When looking for images to create a cover with, I came up with a few options and couldn't decide which I liked best - so I used them all!

Batman and Richie Rich



When it came to Harvey Comics, I was more of a Ghostly Trio fan, but I did read plenty of Richie Rich.  I remember getting a kick out of the high-priced hi-jinks, but thinking that Richie was a bit of a show off.  We get it, you're loaded, you don't have to shape your hedges into dollar signs!  Would Bruce Wayne  have grown to be so frivolous with his money had his parents never died in Crime Alley?  We'll probably never know.

The Hotheads



It was quickly apparent when assembling this team that writers like to give fire-based characters pretty combustible attitudes as well - it seemed to be a common trait.  I figure the more of these guys that you put in a story together, the more chance for conflict there would be, and that could make fore quite an interesting adventure, despite their similar power sets.
